Do flash mobs cause more people to become racist?

If any of you are paying much attention to what is going on in the US you will hear about a phenomenon where flash mobs of black teens are committing criminal acts of violence and theft. It occurred to me while these mobs of criminals are committing these acts out their own racism as they primarily target white people out their hatred for them that they could be causing those that aren't normally racist to start becoming racist. These mobs are moving us backwards when it comes to racial biasses. Consider the understanding that these flash mobs start to become heavily heard of in the media. Many might start to instinctually start believing that blacks are up to no good because they are the only ones out there traveling in packs committing massive crimes as a racial group. I believe they are doing a lot of harm to their themselves and their cause as it becomes clear that these mobs are a bunch of racist pack of wolves.

    It's all the proof anyone needs that criminals like these think they can do whatever they want and get away with it. Because Maobama and the DOJ LET them do it.

    Flash crimes are committed by who? All I know is I've never seen a White flash crime yet. No wonder there is a bias when they happen.

    This is a great question.

    To me racism is saying a race of people is superior or inferior. I'd suggest that racial bias would be what is being messed with as opposed to outright 'racism'. But no matter how you slice n dice it - it's a problem.

    While these folks are primarily black and prey on store/folks based on race - I'd say it's a different kind of dynamic. It surely doesn't paint young blacks in a favorable light.

    I'd hope adult black and white folks alike would be equally appalled with this behaviour. It's reprehensible.

    It's offensive when folks say that certain realities aren't so, just because it's seen as racist to point out certain crimes or events or causal/effective actions are race based. A white guy kills a black guy over drugs and it's a racial crime, a black guy kills another black guy over drugs and it's a statistic. A black guy kills a white guy over drugs and it's drug related. It makes me tired.

    I guess I'm rambling, I came off a wicked work week and "my dogs" are killing me.

    And, unfortunately, it will appear to be racism because law enforcement will get reports of crimes, right? Well, the witnesses to those crimes are going to say that the perpetrators were X number of black teenagers, for example. Well, for pete's sake, if all the witnesses say that the perps were black, then why the hell would they waste time and taxpayer money stopping whites and others looking for the criminals associated with these crimes? So that they can be politically correct? Hogwash.

    These people are doing their communities and families absolutely no favors by behaving this way. None whatsoever. Speaking of families, where the heck are they?

    I've heard of criminal flash mobs, but I was unaware that they were exclusively or even usually black. In my experience, criminals come in all colors.

    You may be right. However, I haven't heard or seen any news reports of white flash mobs. It's criminal and wrong no matter what color they are.

    Yes, because people are tired of these shennigans. They may not be turning racist, but they sure do want these hooligans arrested. Where are these kids parents asking them where they got the stuff they're bringing into the house? Find as many as can be found and prosecute the little twerps.

    Racist, I don't know, but well defended YES. Just drive down any Martin Luther King Jr Street, Drive or Avenue in any City in the country. These are predominately Black Neighborhoods. Merchants in these areas are predominantly black also. Take a look around, all the businesses have bars on the windows, if they have windows. All the gas stations are pre-pay, Many close at dusk. Cashiers are usually behind bullet proof windows. I follow their advice, they do what they do for a reason.

    T-Mobile is the phone company that dominates - prepay plan. When people start suing T-Mobile for being accessories to a crime maybe they will become more responsible with the flash texting. In the meanwhile get your concealed and if need be protect yourself.

    MLK Drive in North Chicago, IL. You're spot on in your assessment. Not all, but many of the businesses, and many of the homes, have bars on their windows.

    They should not be tolerated. It's just out of control, they do because they can.

    I guess it's because I can see they are being inflamed by adults who are deliberately playing the race card. You can't blame a bunch of children who are being led by idiots!
