    Does it matter if whites do this or blacks do that? People kill, and they all do it for different reasons.

    The question I want answered is, "Why is it still okay for blacks to openly express blatant racism while whites are chastised (and often criminally-prosecuted) for making identical statements with a reversal of color?"

    A black man is President of the United States of America. It's about damn time that black people be held accountable for their use of racial slurs against whites just as white are held accountable for their racial slurs against blacks.

    Sorry, but "whitey" isn't holding "negros" down anymore. The most powerful man in the land happens to be a "negro", and "whitey" helped to get him there.

    Enough with the "white bashing" my black Americans. Start acting like equals and you'll start being treated like equals.

    No, this is ridiculous, black and white shoot each other and entire groups of innocent people. This is not a black/white issue.

    All this labeling is so unhelpful in these situations. Sad.

    Yes, like Van Jones said, blacks might shoot each other but would never think of doing a Columbine like incident

    AS MUCH AS I HATE TO AGREE WITH THIS ASSHOLE HE IS RIGHT. BLACKS ONLY SHOOT UP THE HOOD. BUT MORE BLACK KIDS WALK AROUND WITH GUNS THAN WHITE KIDS DO. IF A BLACK KID TRIED TO SHOOT UP A GHETTO SCHOOL HE WOULD GET SO MANY CAPS BUSTED IN HIS ASS HE WOULD LOOK LIKE A WHEEL OF SWISS CHEESE.

    I don't like the word "never" but he didn't say that. He just pointed to the statistical facts, just like many do about black crime. It's just when the statistics, like serial killers, things like that, go on the side of what white people do, it's never mentioned in terms of race.

    whites commit suicide at a much higher rate than blacks.
    You hardly hear of a black comitting suicide.

    whites commit 99.9% more serial killings.
    1 and only 1 occasion that I know of is the DC Snipers.
    but there are hundreds of whites who commit these serial murders.

    whites in school shootings ....
    The math and facts speak for themselves.
    Van Jones is not perfect and is passionate about a lot of issues dealing with race relations. At least he is trying.
    More than I can say about others.

    Calling someone a racist because they choose to discuss certain issues that they see a mass of people suffering from is wrong. Yelling race card on issues like this is wrong also.

    there's a reason for that.
    crooked judicial and corrupt judicial systems.

    Justice is not blind. Justice of AMERICA has 20/20 vision.

    blacks are normally guilty until proven innocent.
    I'm a witness of that on myself too many times

    Whites can kill people
    Mass murders
    and get out on bond ......
    Look at the last white guy who killed his dad and 7 others
    They let him out - only to go back and arrest him for the same crime.

    Drew perterson
    madoff
    aig executives

    whites are given the chance to walk free for long periods of time
    even a chance to kill themselves
    so they don't have to be in jail with blacks.

    Blacks are still being lynched by the system in disproportionate numbers. I remember in '93 reading an article in the NY Times about the death penalty in Philadelphia where it was found that there was a significantly higher portion of black men (than any other race) receiving the death sentence who were either found innocent later or the evidence didn't stack up to prove they were guilty. This is not to say it doesn't happen to white people too. That's why we need to talk about these issues. I see nothing wrong with getting it out in the open.

    It's coming .... unless the ones that fear me and my truth back off.

    There is a lot of ignorance on here (I think we all could learn). I'm seeing people make comments about black crime (and that's not racist), but to mention white crime IS. Very hypocritical.

    So...All American - can you tell me WHY death row has a much higher percentage of blacks on it that whites?
    (hint,,, it's not because they commit more of those crimes..)
  • Riki Ken-Again September 12, 2009 11:54:22

    Hello, Ken. I don't agree with Dennis (who is simply paranoid) or All American Boy (who is just plain ignorant), but I always have to ask where both the views come from.

    I would say Dennis latches onto the racism of past days to call this society racist, but if you consider the statement you will realise that while some people may be racist, the society as a whole is not racist as it does not support racism. The same goes for sexism, too.

    I would say All American Boy is constantly exposed to the idiots who throw the race card around and create problems where there is no justification for such an action. This happens constantly. Take the feminist group, for example. They are constantly professing how hard done by (while ignoring the sexism of males) in small areas that they gain this unpopular name for themselves. Thus, when a larger and more serious issue comes to light, the public are adverse to it.

    People, like Dennis, breed people like All American Boy and that is all it boils down to, if you ask me. Express your views as you will, but be aware of the consequences at the very least.

    racism is a growing practice in AMERICA
    the courts are controlled by racism .....

    it's because whites like yourself refuse to stand up for the weak or poor makes you just as guilty.

    justice rolls right over them collecting checks from the corrupt prison systems who lie about their costs to house these new inmates.

    you can't blame me for what has happened in the past but you can blame me for exposing the past that happens today while you lay around and it doesn't effect you because of the color of your skin.

    You're incredibly paranoid Dennis. You need to calm down. You also assume that as I am white, I am not weak or poor. Nice little stereotypic racism there.

    Dennis, feel free to enlighten me into the racism of the courts. I want evidence though, not stupid statistics. Go for it. Scream your little heart out.

    That is not evidence, Dennis. If you ask me, you're just paranoid.

    Yes, racism is a huge problem in the American public, but your courts do not condone it and thus, the society as a whole is not racist. Homophobic, however, is another point entirely...

    you call it paranoid ?
    I call it aware of my surrounding.

    If you say the courts in AMERICA are blind then you are blind.

    Justice has 20/20 vision.

    non-whites are guilty until proven innocent

    whites are innocent until justice has no choice.
    drew peterson is a reat great example
    bernie madoff is a prime example
    governor of SC is an example
    governor of Chicago
    governor f Alabama - don seigleman - who is in jail still I think

    municipal court is 99% non white
    racial profiling is the highest in Montgomery, AL

    speeding tickets can't be fought
    even when the crooked cop didn't have a radar gun

    I have video of cops bringing a radar gun to a traffic stop

    I have tons of video's of cops acting badly towards blacks.

    *yawn* You still are proving nothing, sorry.

    You are proving that people may be racist, but not the courts. Sorry!

    I could take the fact that atheists have the lowest amount of people in prison and Christians the highest and use this to prove that the government is "atheistic", but the American government most certainly is not. It is in fact, Christian.

    you are saying it's impossible for judges, da's and cops to be racists.

    when da's, judges, and law enforcements are said to go to jail for taking bribes, planting evidence on blacks.
  • Riki Dennis ... September 12, 2009 17:41:21
    Riki
    Again, you are failing to grasp what I am saying. If these people are caught, they are PUNISHED.

    Also, with juries and laws binding the hands of judges, it isn't as easy as it sounds. Particularly with appeals and the like.
