Right on the nose- Just heard yesterday 46% white kids have no father figure - 72% black kids no father figure. Sad situation that the  fathers don't give a shit. Hard to grasp that concept.

    I challenge the 72% number here in 2020 but it is definitely a huge part of the problem. The "problem" is very multifaceted, multipronged. There are issues with police. I think the issue is more prejudice than racism but even more than that I think the issue is more in vetting and training. Still I think the vast majority of police do a good job. I think the vast majority of people are not racist. I think a large number of white people are the polar opposite of racist. They are freakin' SJWs whose hearts bleed for minirites, bleed for illegals, bleed for the LGBT community, bleed for women's rights. None of this makes for good news apparently. I've been profiled many times by the police. I can remember being forced to lay on the ground at gunpoint because a couple of fed cops at the federal building mistook a fountain soda cup for a spray can. I was 14. And who draws down on a kid for graffiti? Many cops are prejudice? I've also had experiences where I was in the wrong and have had cops cut me a break. This issue is deep and not easily defined. What is very easy to define is the role the media plays in inciting unrest, division, of exploting groups of people for their own ratings and therefore profits.

Not Rodney King beat but roughed up good. Was that an issue with marriage? Our parents celebrate their 52nd anniversary this year. They were teeenage sweethearts for a few years before that.

    I was laid out on the concrete for 10 minutes at gun point when I was a Senior in high school. Had my van searched the entire time. Nothing was found.

    My buddy and I drove away and finished the pipe they didn't find.

We're leaving out Hispanics and Asians?They don't exist, neither do Native Americans. When it comes to race relations all are white or all are black. Oppresors/Opressed. K.I.S.S. To be fair, Native Americans barely do exist. How many have you run into this week? I'd never seen Native Americans outside of a rez doing normal shit until I moved into the Northwest. And to make a humorous exchange between Slim and I real, where had either of us even mentioned "oppression". We were making a distinction between looters and rioters/vandalizers and how that tied into race. But everytime I talk about boxing, some white person gotta pull Rocky Marciano out they ass. And your comments don't even make since. Hispanics are framed as the oppressed by the media all of time. Don't you remenber the kids in cages narrative? And as much as white america loves to hold up asians as the gold standard of possible prosperity, it shows how small minded they are because they are really talking about two or three countries. Talk to a Cambodian, a Laoasian, a Filipino, ect... they will tell you that they feel oppressed as well. One thing you are right about, all will agree the white man is the oppressor. You'll never here me spouting that though so stay out of Slim and I's comical banter with that bullshit.
    Get your sh/t together. The original post you quote was by undermysac, responded to by me, then You and Slim jumped in. Just who did the high-jacking of a conversation? You also have to face the fact it is a public forum and no two people "own" a thread or conversation. Go to Private Message if you want to keep it private, but if you post it, it is public. 

    peace

To be fair, Native Americans barely do exist. How many have you run into this week? I'd never seen Native Americans outside of a rez doing normal shit until I moved into the Northwest. And to make a humorous exchange between Slim and I real, where had either of us even mentioned "oppression". We were making a distinction between looters and rioters/vandalizers and how that tied into race. But everytime I talk about boxing, some white person gotta pull Rocky Marciano out they ass. And your comments don't even make since. Hispanics are framed as the oppressed by the media all of time. Don't you remenber the kids in cages narrative? And as much as white america loves to hold up asians as the gold standard of possible prosperity, it shows how small minded they are because they are really talking about two or three countries. Talk to a Cambodian, a Laoasian, a Filipino, ect... they will tell you that they feel oppressed as well. One thing you are right about, all will agree the white man is the oppressor. You'll never here me spouting that though so stay out of Slim and I's comical banter with that bullshit.
    Get your sh/t together. The original post you quote was by undermysac, responded to by me, then You and Slim jumped in. Just who did the high-jacking of a conversation? You also have to face the fact it is a public forum and no two people "own" a thread or conversation. Go to Private Message if you want to keep it private, but if you post it, it is public.

    You're going off the rails lately, bro. Guess that's what social isolation and impending death does to you. We used to be better than this. There's no reason we still can't be.

Right on the nose- Just heard yesterday 46% white kids have no father figure - 72% black kids no father figure. Sad situation that the  fathers don't give a shit. Hard to grasp that concept. I challenge the 72% number here in 2020 but it is definitely a huge part of the problem. The "problem" is very multifaceted, multipronged. There are issues with police. I think the issue is more prejudice than racism but even more than that I think the issue is more in vetting and training. Still I think the vast majority of police do a good job. I think the vast majority of people are not racist. I think a large number of white people are the polar opposite of racist. They are freakin' SJWs whose hearts bleed for minirites, bleed for illegals, bleed for the LGBT community, bleed for women's rights. None of this makes for good news apparently. I've been profiled many times by the police. I can remember being forced to lay on the ground at gunpoint because a couple of fed cops at the federal building mistook a fountain soda cup for a spray can. I was 14. And who draws down on a kid for graffiti? Many cops are prejudice? I've also had experiences where I was in the wrong and have had cops cut me a break. This issue is deep and not easily defined. What is very easy to define is the role the media plays in inciting unrest, division, of exploting groups of people for their own ratings and therefore profits.
    Your last line , again, is spot

    on. There is no such thing as journalism anymore. It use to be, report the facts  and let the public decide their own belief. Today's news (Which is  not

    news) is simply opinion pieces. It is simply disgusting that the puppets must report what their owners say so they can get a paycheck. Fk all the phony

    mfkrs who call themselves journalist. They are the one's with a serious lack of morals and ethics which in turn effects public disarray.

    This past weekend 61 people were shot in Chicago. 9 dead, including a 3, 16 and 17 year old. The two teenage boys were not a part of gang affiliation supposedly. Innocent people dying every day.

    How the hell do we stop this madness? Unreal

    Fire all the police and pass out guns and ammo; process of elimination. Lat man standing is the dictator.

    Do you think any cop in their right mind is going into the inner city ?  Why ?  BLM has already made it clear they are not welcome.   First words out of a suspect's mouth... I CANT BREATHE.   Inner cities about to get a picture of what things look like w no police presence.   Law abiding citizens in the inner city are the ones getting screwed.   Don't those BLACK LIVES MATTER TOO ?! 

     And you wonder why the wheels are coming off even faster in the inner city... an_timeout
