Blacks with exactly the same criminal history as their white counterpoint are ARRESTED and CONVICTED at higher rates when commiting the same crime.. Can you read? I feel sorry for you. It must suck to live a miserable life with so much hate. Instead of fixing the problem blacks want to point the finger and place blame. PhatMack19 1 Quote

I have stated over and over that I'm not a Trump fan. Are you actually trying to say I am? And who am I defending? new tobie keeps writing outrageous statements on here, and I just respond by showing were he is wrong or hypocritical. Are you suggesting that I am defending someone based on that? Quote

Do you want to be judged by any group that you are in (sex, race, profession, hometown, etc.) by what an individual person might do? Should any group be judged by individuals? Why should I or any other officer be judged by this idiot? Again, name 10,000 crooked or abusive officers and it is 1%. Name 20,000 and it is 2% and so on. How many school teachers have been in the news recently for committing sexual assault of a child? In fact we have had several cases locally and likely way more than any officers in this area.... and the teachers are wearing camera or having car videos running. Why no threads of abusive or teachers abusing children? How about the nurses that kill patients or steal their drugs? And lastly, even though in my first sentence I said the officer was wrong and got what he deserved, I will hear some in this forum claim yet again that I and others always cover for officers. It has never been true and will remain so. The main difference is that I want to see proof just like we demand for everyone else. Englebert, thetragichippy, Chester86 and 1 other 4 Quote

I noticed you failed to mention Affirmative Action laws that give an unfair advantage to less qualified people based solely on skin color. I noticed you failed to mention these same laws giving the same unfair advantage in admittance criteria. I noticed you failed to mentioned all of the minority outreach programs designed to conform to soft quotas, which in many case means "Whites need not apply". I noticed in your other post on this forum that you instinctly stereotyped white people on this forum. I noticed you failed to mention that a white person can get fired and/or have his life ruined just for disagreeing with a Black person (or any minority). I noticed you failed to provide any stats/proof on this so-called "institutionalized slavery". I noticed you mentioned "white privilege" but give no explanation as to what that consists of. I noticed that you contend that White people get more opportunities but fail to give any clarification/proof. I noticed you failed to mention the daily in-your-face accusations of racism directed solely at White people, especially Southern White men. I've heard it all before, but I don't dare question any of it...lest I be branded racist. The truth you conveniently omitted. Quote

This man is giving a view through his eyes, something I or anyone else cannot see. It seems most of us have the YEA, BUT attitude, always wanting to put someones opinion down, while promoting our own. To me, this post did not come off like some other folks on here, trying to cram something down our throats......to me, it was an honest opinion that at minimum needs to be considered before automatic retaliation.... This was a well written post! Whoopi Goldberg's Lips 1 Quote

You seem like a stand up guy, regardless of your race. You're right when you say you can't use what your ancestors went through as a motive. You take the bull by the horns and get things done, and I admire that. I'm a white mutt, but my best friend is a black man that I'm proud to call my brother. He's cut from the same jib as you, he is a productive member of society. But, he also knows the reality of things (Mostly because we had many, many, heated debates in our dorm room in college) that you and him are NOT the issue. The issue, in my eyes, has nothing to do with race, but with attitude. You guys are winners in life, and that comes from home training. Many people are not as fortunate as you and it's showing in the "dumbing down" of our society, Big Girl being a prime example. Regardless of what she means to get across, what she actually says is what gets everyone wound up. A little critical thinking goes a long way... thetragichippy 1 Quote
