Your words not mine. I didn’t say a word about racism. I think black people are reacting exactly how white people have had. The different types of reaction to exactly the same kind of violence is more telling than anything else.
I see your point. Interestingly enough, saw on my husband’s FB posted a similar picture and article about white people rioting over silly things. And guess who posted it? A white guy! he’s friends with hubby and a convert to Islam.
First of all, it’s nothing personal. I don’t think hareem is a bad person. I think her comments are misguided at best. What change exactly? the facade of equal opportunity? Being able to vote doesn’t mean that there isn’t a disparity between races in America or any other western country.
Please provide evidence to support what you say because I can throw a bunch of historical evidence that skews a POC person from the get go. Racism card hasn’t been used unfairly…? When exactly has it been used unfairly?
The issue here is that 9 of the 12 Jury members were white. The prosecutor was white. The offender was white. Darren Wilson is GUILTY because he shot an unarmed man 12 times. Wilson claims that he would have been knocked out because of the injuries. Have you seen his injuries? I’ve had worse and I’m perfectly fine. I didn’t go on and shoot 12 times.
Lethal force is always the last option… and yet we see time and time again where that is not the case.
That ***12 year old BOY/CHILD Tamir Rice a black child ***was killed for having a BB gun.
So your white friends don’t have any problem when you tell them they’re racist? You know what? Your posts are extremely ridiculous…I’m literally laughing at all the sentences which are meant to be offensive and insulting.
They know they have institutionalised racism. They have privilege just for being white. I’m not trying to offend or insult you. I’m stating the fact that what you are saying is bigoted and racist. Laugh all you want I don’t care.
James Eagan Holmes, a grown man who entered a public movie theatre in full tactical clothing, carrying seven different fire arms and grenades, did not have a single shot fired at him by police when he walked out of the building after he finished killing 12 people, and he was arrested peacefully. But Mike Brown, an unarmed teenage boy in plain clothing, was shot multiple times after he got down on his knees and begged for mercy.
I look Asian to you. I look white to other people. What I call myself… lol it’s what OTHER people call me. I also sound American to some and Australian to others. But yeah keep on saying BS
you guys are off on your tangents again.
kakee despite my suggestion that we not get personal, you did.
hareem…despite seeing my comment you are falling for her bait.
I’ve posted several comments about ferguson, race etc. It’s nothing personal. Being personal means that I would bring up something that was mentioned outside of this thread… oh wait-
Yeah, Tamir Rice. The poor boy and his family. I’m absolutely against letting children have toy guns because it detaches them from the responsibilities and caution that comes with it.
Guess, how many white people are shot on sight
Posting it again James Eagan Holmes, a grown man who entered a public movie theatre in full tactical clothing, carrying seven different fire arms and grenades, did not have a single shot fired at him by police when he walked out of the building after he finished killing 12 people, and he was arrested peacefully. But Mike Brown, an unarmed teenage boy in plain clothing, was shot multiple times after he got down on his knees and begged for mercy.
Regardless, there was ample evidence that the Brown made a turn, based on his blood drops, moved many feet TOWARDS the police officer before getting shot at.
I don’t know what world you live in, but if you as a desi person did the same thing, the cop would pull his gun on you too.
I got pulled over once for turning on a red light (saw the other lights turn green and mistook mine for green too), so I did this U-turn, but the turning lane light was RED.
Cop came after me, and my first time getting pulled over so I didn’t know the rules. He walked back to his car and I got my license out, and actually I got out of the car to hand him the license. He saw me open the car door and he pulled out his gun, ducked under his car door that was open and nearly shot at me. Gun was out. He started yelling at me to get back in the car and I did, and he was FREAKED OUT. I was too, I was shaking and crying, then finally he came up to me with the gun in his hand, and he told me why did you get out of the car?? I said I was coming to your car to hand you the license.
he says oh my LORD, I was thinking you were coming out to attack me, you never know people have guns on them, and they can shoot at officers.
You know that’s terrifying right? And also illegal lol. Please read all the evidence and the videos before you say that it was justifiable for the killer cop to murder Mike Brown.
Self defence? 12 bullets is not self defence.
I wonder if the same thing would happen to someone who is white? Because although you are not black you aren’t white either.
