Simpletons don't seem to understand that you can be pro good police, and be con bad police/bad training/bad tactics. They find the concept extremely difficult to comprehend. Logic is hard for them.
Blacks need to quit doing so much crime so they won't be there when the Police fuck up and shoot them dead? Mistakes happen.
You're conveniently ignoring what leads to racism and discrimination. Much of it has to do with the outsized criminal behavior of the demographic which we've established has to do with poverty/lack of opportunity. So it's circular. Finding more ways to give black people more opportunity/get out of poverty is the long-term solution to combating racism/police brutality and keeping them out of jail in the first place.
"You're conveniently ignoring what leads to racism and discrimination." White Racism against Blacks started when Whites decided to "buy" African slaves. What "led to that?" The racism continued on the slave ships. What "led to that?" The racism continued on American soil. What "led to that?" The racism continued after slaves were "freed." What "led to that?" The racism continues to this day. And in your infinite wisdom, it's the victim's fault. According to you, the victims cause Whites to hate them and other minorities, ever since the time when Whites killed off most Native Americans. You're the only one confused as to which came first. And your "thinking" is exactly part of the problem.
It doesn’t matter what came first. We can’t undo what happened 400 years ago. The question is, how do we break the cycle? Just “calling out racism when we see it” or shunning half the country are not effective strategies. If crime in the black community is significantly reduced most of the racism towards them (especially by police) will go away. This won’t happen overnight. The solution is multi-generational. It requires a cultural shift. The gang culture is a cancer on the black community and how they’re perceived by a lot of the country. I get that black people have been wronged. However, if the left stops crying victim for two seconds and tries to look through the lens of people who have become afraid of black people, I think it’ll be a lot more productive than what they’re doing now.
Education is the main thing we can give everybody (black or white). However, people have to want to be educated. It can’t be forced on them. We have a lot of people of all races who reject education, because they don’t think they need it or it’s not cool within their social circle. That’s a serious problem.
Uh...yeah. The vast majority of racism I see is not based on a superior race mentality, but on fear that has statistical backing. It is prejudice/stereotyping, not so much white supremacy. This was not the case 100 years ago.
