Just sick of it. White people very seldom riot in America, blacks commit 90% of all crimes.
There is your reasoning. Just stop with the racism nonsense.
Well that's not true at all. They might commit a majority of the crime in the US, but you're grossly exaggerating with 90%.
How about we turn it around then... 90% of all dollars stolen from Americans has been done by white people. Through investment fraud, securities fraud, bank scams, the mafia (American and Russian)...

Have you ever been to a professional football game? Lots of white people fighting in the stands. They just don't get arrested.
If they were arrested for assault and the media covered them in the same way as when black kids are arrested for "rioting" or however they choose to term it, you may see a change in behaviors.

Excuse me, I left out the word interracial.
Regardless, blacks are arrested at a disproportionate rate because they commit a disproportionate amount of crime.
Enough with "police are targeting blacks or schools are targeting blacks."
If blacks want to marginalize themselves, they need to take responsibility for their actions. Period. I'm tired of white liberals and certain members in the black community trying to keep blacks in victim mode by pushing this propaganda.

I've been to numerous Jets, Knicks and Yankees games (most of the time against Boston opposition) and never seen a fight. I'm usually in the nosebleeds too.

This is an irrational and illogical statement. We are talking about violent crimes and local police don't deal in bank scams. There are special agencies that deal with that.
Another white liberal garbage argument.

No argument here. On both sides.
In the first season of the Sopranos they touched on some of that as well. Many of these "civil rights" guys are playing both sides, as are the white guys who help perpetuate much of the myths.

You never said violent crime. You said crime period.
The statistics don't back up your claims either. Or are they biased so you just choose to ignore them because they don't further your argument?

Yes, nothing to see here.
There are certainly problems within the black community, and problems that they need to address within their own communities, but you're ignorant of all data if you think our justice system isn't racially prejudiced.

I still have a nasty scar on the back of my hand from where one of them put a Newport out on it while I was just trying to go to the bathroom to take a p*ss. So yeah, I grew up fearful of black people, but it had nothing to do with upbringing. I was in my 20s before I really got over the prejudice.
So you are in the minority to ever have had anything bad like that happen to you. 99% of suburban white kids have never had anything bad happen to them personally.
As far as SC Duke goes, maybe his kid should think that the kid's parents are lazy, not paying attention to the skin color of him. In my son's school there are a lot of habitually tardy kids. ALL of them from white families.
That was a much different time than today. I grew up in a city and live in a city today, so I really can't comment on the "suburban white kid". All I can say is the number of white people in my middle school, with demographics close to 50/50, that witnessed at least one black on white unprovoked assault, has to be close to 100%. Never a problem in elementary school and I don't know about high school because my parents pulled me out and put me in private school after the incident. If you even made eye contact with one, you risked a sucker punch. I don't think they behave that way anymore, but I guess we'll find out when our little one gets to middle school. So far they have treated him with nothing but respect in his basketball programs where he is the only white kid on the court.

Who says they won't? It happened last week. It took them weeks to decide to address the situation in Ferguson and now in Beavercreek, Ohio.
That being said, the case in Moore appears to be not about racism but instead about a crazy individual who decided to get revenge on people whom he thought screwed him over.

The system is prejudiced against poor people, of all colours. Blacks are the poorest so they get the shaft but it isn't because they are black. Blacks and white trash get treated almost the exact same.

Wrong...
The Black on White crime is accepted here in the US. The numbers prove it.
Now, Muslim crime is on its way to become acceptable, If the MUSLIM In CHIEF doesn't stop it!

I can agree with that. We all have biases that have shaped our views of society. That being said, I consciously try to throw those out as judge each person on their own merits and not society in general.

Yeh I'm not saying that it's a tool solely used by Obama or Democrats in general, it's just easier for that party because of their potential voting block. Republicans certainly use it where they can.

The topic you were talking about was rioting you dingbat.
Then you bring up banks and fraud like the irrational white liberal you are.
How about you pull up some stats on violent crime with an emphasis on rioting. Quit using your white liberal tactics.

Politicians are going to use whatever they can to get elected.
If we want them to stop using race as an issue then we, as a country, need to stop being racists.
