I hate this childish trope the left goes to all the time.

Got into a Twitter slapfight about black crime needing to be a part of the conversation about all this mess with a (wait for it) young, white woman.

Implied I was being racist and all that. I cited the fact that black on black crime is the biggest issue my cop friend has to deal with, and that he’s black.

The whole thing then became me calling attention to my “one black friend” and deflecting away from the point. I said, yes, he is my one black COP friend. Didn’t matter. She had her hook.

This kind of disingenuous crap will never allow them to engage the actual issues. Nothing but childish word games.

Rant over.

They stopped debating in good faith a long time ago. The mask is off. We are at war for the soul of this country.

I agree.

It is indeed childish to latch onto one irrelevancy and to subsequently ignore all efforts to engage in substantive discussion.

Yes, don’t bring up the fact that only 1 black person a month on average out of a population of 44,000,000 are killed by police. That is 0.00000002% chance they’ll be killed by police this month and that is only if they are a criminal who resists arrest. That really fricks with their narrative that cops are slaughtering black people and is mean.

Guarantee they all live in areas with like 4% minority representation.

The most virulent BLM advocate on my FB feed live in Woodstock, NY which might be the whitest place in America. Yeah, You love black lives so much you chose to be as far away from them as possible.

Leftists always have a ton of conversation enders and our society has allowed them to be untouchable. If called any sort of “ist” or “phobe”, you are no longer allowed to have a point in a leftist’s mind. They will just settle into screaming and chanting. If the “moderate” voters didn’t just accept this, we might be able to push it out of popular cultural acceptance and have some real debate...but unfortunately too many regard political discourse of any kind as distasteful. They hold their ears and accept what CNN and Fox tells them.

Just goes to show you how great those hunters are.

I mean damn, they are out hunting blacks to kill but them blacks are so elusive that the racist cop hunters can't bag more than one a month.

We live in a large private community with a wide variety of different types of people and the vast majority of our neighbors are good people who simply want to raise their families in peace.
We will know that we have arrived as a society when race is no longer an issue.

That's projection.

99% of the lefties that promote white guilt didn't grow up in diverse areas like southerners do.

I should clarify that’s unarmed black people. Obviously Darwin is going to take care of the situation if you’re shooting at a cop which happens too, and is probably happening a lot more often nowadays thanks to the violent rhetoric of the media and BLM

I don’t usually ask this, but who the heck is downvoting this and why?

Have a different take? Saddle up and let’s hear it.

Learn how to play the game better: next time you engage with liars, you lie.

They tell you they want to have a conversation about race then they begin their lecture.

That's what adds to the challenge. You know how hard it is to find that elusive unarmed black criminal.

100% this.
I remember after the election one of my acquaintances making the statement that anyone who votes for Trump is a racist. I asked “do you really believe that over 50% of the nation, many of these POC, are racist”? Absolutely she said. I knew then there is talking sense with leftists.

I don't have "black" friends, I don't have "white, red, brown or green" friends. I have good folks I can count on.

Most I can count on more than family.

I almost downvoted, because this post would be so completely disingenuous from 90% of the posters here ... whining about someone ELSE deflecting from the substantive point an opponent is addressing .....

Then, I noticed that it came from you and held off.

Never use fact and logic when in a discussion with a liberal. Their brains cannot handle it.
