Should I hate all germans? Should I blame and harbor anger towards 30 year old germans today? Should I demand legislation still against them?

No, I worry about my family and judge each man today on their own worth, not the great grandfathers worth

.. and this is why Doc Rivers said what he said. You guys love to make things isolated incidents when it's the white guy committing a brazen crime or racism then you immediately turn around and accuse an entire race of criminality.

Why wouldn't he feel he is hated?

I legitimately saw people rationalize on this forum why Dylann Roof shot 9 Christians who took him in, fed him and treated him Christ-like.

There is literally no self-awareness with many of you and it is pathetic and sad.

The only way anything changes in this or any country is through legislation.

For one black people aren't all criminals and their community isn't the only one with an issue of criminality and family structure breakdown.

Secondly, criminality derives usually from financial position. As I stated earlier for generations they have been crippled financially by our own governments laws. Their famikt structure ruined by our own legislation which gave lengthy sentences to marijuana to fill the prisons these wealthy people invest in.


No. It changes by completely overhauling ghetto culture. White trash isn't exempted from this either. Focus on academics instead of athletics. Stop making fun of kids who do well in school.

Stop glorifying gang activity and baby daddy/momma stuff.

Lay off the drugs. No one is forcing a crack pipe into your mouth. Nothing good comes from that lifestyle.

Just because you can make a baby doesn't mean you should.

If you do the following things in order, you'll likely not spend a lifetime in poverty: Graduate HS, get married, then have children.

Hip hop culture is a stain on society and needs to be eradicated completely.

There are a lot of studies that say it directly correlates with IQ. Of course IQ plays a part of financial position as well but for the most part dumb whites and minorities commit crime at a much higher rate. I know I know It’s captain fricking obvious

Hot take, but black folks currently in America have benefited from slavery as well. I guess I'm a racist for pointing that out though.

So I ask you to elaborate with specifics and now I'm the problem? This isn't about Dylan Roof, a dude that should have been killed with a brick soon after he was apprehended. When did I accuse an entire race of criminality? What self awareness do I lack? Don't turn this into something personal with me, it's not. Let's keep the focus on Doc's comments.

Why shouldn't he feel that he is hated? Because he is an ex-basketball player and current coach who is adored across this country by basketball fans and compensated to the tune of tens of millions of dollars for his contributions to a game. A fricking game. If he feels like he isn't loved, it's a lack of self-love, nothing else.

His "argument" is retarded. The people on this board are pointing that out. It doesn't need to be contemplated by Socrates.

Do people not understand that when athletes and celebrities refer to "we" in these situations they are referring to their collective race and not themselves as individuals?



So we are willing to idolize and throw millions of dollars at people that we think are subhuman? Makes perfect sense.

Mark Cuban were to come out and say "This country doesn't support Americans who work" - no one on here would say "Oh your billions of dollars aren't enough Mark?!"



You could probably find that exact scenario somewhere on this board.

How can a seemingly intelligent person be so delusional? He's allowed to have his opinion, but spewing that stupid shite empowers people and convinces them that what they're doing is right. It's real easy to endorse the "protesting" when you can retreat to your mansion in the rich part of town and afford private security if you need it. Same can't be said for people getting their windows smashed in and their stuff stolen. This shite has to end.

and oh btw, it's the Republicans fault. frick him.

Don’t have an arrest warrant for sexual assault, don’t carry a knife and obey the police. Maybe then you will get the love you give.
