Bogus! This thread really got locked?

[Orion Bailey]

I came in to read up and was astounded it was locked. i wanted to comment to Dviss on a couple things and couldn't.

Are we not able to have that type of a discussion on here? I thought OT was anything goes?

OT An issue nobody talks about in this country

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

People need their safe space. (pussy azz crackaz dat iz)

MFs can't take it. They say dumb shit and when I call them out on it they have no fucking clue. @Cippy91

And look up the numbers. It's white on white MURDERS. 84%. See how some of you MFs no all the black stats but none of your own. Because you don't give a shit plain and simple. So.... Instead of whitesplaining how to fix it, just ignore it like you usually do....

White people are homicidal maniacs WITHOUT having gangs to emulate. Just thank sweet baby Jesus that we don't all make and listen to wild west gunfighter country music.

It would be a disaster of epic proportions.

Oh, and the thread probably didn't need locked. I mean, sure it had no real value and wasn't really going anywhere but most of my..ok, almost all of my threads share the same attributes. They don't get locked. Still think people are getting tweetwashed. (My new term for brainwashed)

But whatever, I just don't want you getting chased off by us assholes.

So at first you insult us by telling us we can't have an opinion because we're white..... and then you insult us by saying that we should keep ignoring the problem like we always have.

So basically, "fuck you for ignoring this problem........ but you can't have an opinion because you're white."

Nice man..... real nice.

 

[Nate]

Are black people appropriating white culture by shooting each other?

If so, I personally, am outraged.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I closed the thread.

It went from minority violence in Chicago and BLM to complaining, arguing and insults. Someone gets pissed and instead of talking with them about it others have to drum up reasons why they're more pissed. You guys need to be nicer to each other.

It's the same result with every single thread about racial issues.

The same moronic racists show.... some of them hate black people. Some of them hate white people. Either way, they don't really want to talk about the issue or have a discussion. They want to make insults about the other race.... and whether they realize it or not, they're racists. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only person who wants to have an actual discussion.

This is simply bullshit. But if that's what you want to take away from what I said... I digress. The bottom line is this:

When we complain about being killed while unarmed don't simply say "but what about black on black crime? You should be more concerned about that" then you post stats etc...

This is a BULLSHIT stance and it simply ignores the problem that we're speaking about.

We don't need you to explain how we fix a problem (that you don't know how to fix) while ignoring the original concern. Don't fucking tell us not to be concerned about police violence..

Jesus Christ...

You might have white friends, you might get along with white people just fine in the day to day, but you harbor feelings towards "white people" that would be classified as racism if they were said by any other person about any other race. And the fact that you can't even discuss it tells me that you're defensive and you can't even see the double standard that you have given yourself.

I never said any of those things.

 

[dviss1]

I never said any of those things.

You have in the past:

Yup. I think our country has bigger problems than 1,200 people killed by police, and that's even assuming that they were all good people who were completely innocent.

There are 319 million people in this country. There are 1.1 million cops in this country. Not even a tenth of a percent of the police shot and killed someone last year.

I think this stance is utter bullshit.

 

[Natebishop3]

Fine.

Here's some other words...

Bigot - a person who is intolerant toward those holding different opinions.

Discriminate - make an unjust or prejudicial distinction in the treatment of different categories of people or things, especially on the grounds of race, sex, or age.

Yeah... You don't know me. And just because I complain about white people not giving a shit about our problems, doesn't make me racist... Jesus...

You shout people down because of the color of their skin. What would you call that? You don't see any problem with telling someone that their opinion doesn't matter because they're white?

I was born this way. I didn't choose to be a straight white male. Those are the cards I was given. I would never tell someone that their opinion is invalid because of the color of their skin or their sexual orientation. I like to discuss different topics. I try to be accepting of all people, even those that I disagree with, but it boggles my mind sometimes when I see how you rationalize telling people that their opinion doesn't matter.

I would call that a gross miscalculation at best and bullshit at worst because that's not why I said anything to anyone. The MF makes a whole thread to whitesplain what we should be concerned about in Chicago. Stating that "nobody talks about it"...

I simply responded by saying that "no... White folk in here (as well as everywhere else) talk about it all the time in response to complaints about the killing of unarmed black people.

You call that racist... I say GTFO...

Your opinion about what we should be worried about INSTEAD of being concerned about police killing us...

DOESN'T MATTER.....

It's like saying "hey slavery was hundreds of years ago. You shouldn't worry about the affects of that anymore".

It's condescending, uncaring, and yes, you should be told to STFU when you do that...

 

[MarAzul]

Discriminate - make an unjust or prejudicial distinction in the treatment of different categories of people or things

The word is not so limited. It also means; Recognize or perceive the difference. And this may include race.

For instance;
A black fellow that work in the same lab where I worked had very long legs compared to me. Very noticeable when I stood next to him as he and I where both about the same height but his pants pocket was closer to my breast pocket than my pants pocket. So it was very easy to discern the differences. Not all that unusual either and the list is many if you use your ability to discriminate.

 

[Orion Bailey]

Please keep it on the up and up. I don't want this locked. I think this could be a real education for many of us, if we can respect each other and discuss the issues rationally and calmly.

Sometimes it just takes another persons viewpoint to make others aware of things whether that viewpoint is harsh or not.

The important discussion I see it the definition of racism. Dviss1 doesn't like it. I have a hard time discussing things if we don't all use the same terms that mean the same thing.

I think the point is that you, as a straight white male, can't give an informed opinion.

Put it this way, say you were getting your taxes done - your mail carrier might have his thoughts on taxes but the opinion of the H&R Block guy is going to matter a whole lot more because he lives taxes every day.

They actually would be pretty close. H&R block is awful. I've known many of their preparers that know nothing. The computer software they use just asks the preparer a bunch of questions trying to minimize risk.

CPA well versed in taxes would be a better bet and example.
