I too wish it would have went on.
Although, I think everyone is somewhat racist whether they admit it or not.
Racism is a worldwide problem that has been with us since before recorded history. It isn't just white against black or black against white (although hate-mongers like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton will tell you a black person can't be a racist), but its usually portrayed as only an American/Southern problem.

Agreed. Everyone is racist to a certain extent. If you were walking home late at night and you had to choose between going down an alley filled with a bunch of young Black guys dressed in their thug attire, or an alley filled with a bunch of white guys, what alley would you choose?
Thats what I thought.
Tarheel said:
yeah really....I love how some people from other countries seem to believe racism only occurs here in America.....complete BS. It's been around for thousands of years, and it sure didn't start here.
I guess it just falls in line with all the other reasons why America is the source of all the worlds problems....

Sure. Everyone judges the book by the cover and that's not only a question of race. It's gender, age, how you dress, what you drive, blah, blah. The problem is when you give in to it and not even try to see beyond your own lil' world.
Saying that judging the book by the cover is ok because everyone does it, that's like saying that it's ok to lie and cheat because everyone does it. That's a real low bar in my book.
But... what the hell. If people have already given in to the ugliest side of themselves and justify it in whatever way they see fit, there's not much you can do to make 'em see things differently.
I wasn't trying to change the world, I was just hoping I'd get a chance to pick apart the impossible arguments for racism (or whatever the hell it is) people come up with. It's kinda fun to see people back themselves into a corner and get all worked up about it. When they run out of arguments, they're usually left with stuff like "get the black cock outta your mouth son". Oh, wait, that already happened. Such adorable and uber-intelligent lil' comments always make my day
Can you really blame a guy for trying to have fun at the expense of ignorant weasels? If you can't pick on the guys who pick on others, who the hell can you pick on?
Oh well, I'll just have to find some other way to entertain myself...

Actually that situation (if slightly changed) isn't a racist one.
Two alleys or dark streets. One has some black guys in it, one some white guys. If the white guys look like Eminem and the black guys are dressed like Tiger Woods coming out of a sports bar. I know which ones I'd rather walk by.
That doesn't mean I hate whitey though, just like in the above situation it doesn't mean I hate blacks. It means I'm aware of my surrondings and I dont want to put myself in unnessecary harm or danger.

Say you are FBI. You get a tip off that there are TWO terrorist on board a airplane. As you enter the plane you notice all 200 of the passengers are white besides two Islamic men sitting besides each other. Wouldn’t it be in your best interest to be suspicious of these men, and maybe confront and interrogate them first before the other 198 white people? If you say no you are a fool. And if you say yes, you are racial profiling (stereotyping)
If you were a cop, and you get a call about robbery at a gas station, and they had 15 people arrested that were suspects. Along with cash, other items were a few packs of Newport cigarettes, and a 40oz of malt liquored. The people that were involved were 10 white guys, 3 Chinese men, and two black men(everyone dressed the same in street close) wouldn’t it be wise judging upon the items stolen, to interrogate the two black men first, instead of the other 13 men. Any good investigator will tell you this is true, if you don’t, you are a fool, but If you do, you are a racist fucking pig and should be shot for stereotyping. THIS WAS MY POINT I know you all know this is true. if you say different, you must be running for governor or something

If you were a law-abiding black man who happened to be at a gas station together with 14-17 other people (the numbers don't quite add up, but just stay with me for a sec, ok?) when someone stole cash, a few packs of Newport cigarettes, and a 40oz of malt liquored (never mind my English). The other 14-17 guys were white (roughly 10), Chinese (like, uh, 3) and another black man. How would you feel if the cops decided to interrogate you and the other black man first only because you were black?

Well, it all depends. Will I be an educated intelligent black man, that knows the facts and statistics that are against me? If so, I would understand the reasoning behind this and corporate in a civilized manner, helping them by stating where I was, what happened etc, basically everything I knew. And of course I would be very angry that I was being stereotyped, but not at the cops, at my race for giving themselves this reputation. I believe this would be very hard, and suck, but I wouldn’t start running my mouth about racist cops and stereotyping, that will just cause problems. The fact is, if they didn’t have this reputation, they wouldn’t be stereo typed, just like people stereotype Islamic people for being terrorists. Sure there have been white terrorists (timothy McVeigh for 1) but as you can see, the number of Islamic terrorists greatly surpass the amount of any other race. Is this not true? do you not agree with me?

1) If you were an educated black man you would know that America was built on the notion that every man (and woman) has the same rights regardless of race (and a bunch of other things) and you would know that cops who use race (white, black, whatever) as a way to "profile" suspects are violating the constitution and the very founding principles of this country.
2) If you were an educated black man, you would know that you have the right to be treated as an individual, not as a statistic.
3) If you were an educated black man, I'm sure you would cooperate in a civilized manner even though your civil rights as a citizen are being violated.
4) Is you were an educated black man you would know that Islam is a religion, not a race.
5) If you were an educated black man this country could count one more educated individual.

No, I do not know that you are right. I'm 100% convinced that you believe your statements to be 100% true, but that doesn't make them true.
Spelling bee competition is over (I suck at it too) but, no, using race to decide who is more likely to be guilty of a crime is not right.
I haven’t seen statistics on this but I would guess that more men are imprisoned, incarcerated or on parole than women. But that doesn’t make it right to assume that a man is automatically guilty of a crime (going back to the gas station example).
I have seen statistics on the correlation between education and crime and even though I don’t remember a single digit, I know that more uneducated people are imprisoned, incarcerated or on parole than educated people. That does not make it right to assume that a high-school grad is any more guilty than a Ph.D.
I’m sure profiling is reality every day all over this country, but that does not make it ok. Again, the fact that everyone lies and cheats is not excuse to lie and cheat.
There is a not so insignificant document called the The Declaration of Independence. This country is built on the ideas and notions in that document. That document makes me proud of this country. It tells me that there are principles that should not be violated no matter how "practical" it might be to ignore them.
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

i'm saying that statistics are responsible for racial profiling... it's really not debatable which races have a higher crime rates.

I don't disagree. But if statistics, not principles and laws (such as "that constitution thing that doesn't really mean anything this day and age") run this country, we're all screwed.
It's statistically easy to prove that uneducated people will bring up kids who are more likely to be criminals than educated people. Maybe we should use that statistic to prevent uneducated people from having kids? The world would be a safer place, right?
There's statistics for everything and you can slice any pie in a million ways, and I guarantee that all of us can be statistically proven to be likely criminals one way or another.

See, we aren’t on the same page here. You have the wrong argument. Not once did I say this was “right” to stereotype people. I actually believe this is quit wrong, and you shouldn’t have to do this, but in same cases it is quite necessary.
If you’re in a park, and you notice a pit bull 10 feet away looking at you, you would be a little more freaked out than if it was a golden retriever correct? Why is this? There are plenty of very nice family oriented pit bulls out there that wouldn’t harm a fly. Why would you be more scared? Are you saying you would stereotype the pit bull just because it is known to be more aggressive and there are more pit bull attacks than golden retrievers?
No I’m not saying black people are like Pit Bulls and white people are like golden retrievers, I’m saying if it happens, it’s going to be ingrained in peoples heads, and they will be more cautious around them. Again, no it may not be right, but it’s sometimes necessary to stereotype.
Are used car sales men know too rip people off? Isn’t that a stereotype? Is the bad ass athletes that make all the records accused of roid usage more often than the bench warmer? The fact is, it’s not right, but there are stereotypes for everything and everyone. and sometime it's necessary

I guess Ill chime in.
Although its true socio-economic status has been positively correlated with criminal behaviour regardless of subject race or ethnic heritage, members seem to be downplaying the significant influence popular rap/ghetto culture - glorifying maladaptive attitudes and ideals - exerts on impressionable black youth.
By promulgating the continued stereotype of a black community assigning prestige only to entertainment related occupations, black 'artists' forfeit an opportunity to encourage scholastic and professional achievement in black youth, which could contribute to the redefinition of Afro-American culture and Afro-American socio-economic status.
No doubt race plays a large role as well. However, Afro-Americans economic and social salvation will likely only be hastened by a internal revaluation of their own collective culture and the (hopefully) ensuing realignment of culture-specific social values towards more prevelant norms exhibited by relatively functional societies - strong work ethic, marital fidelity, personal accountability, scholastic achievement, ect.
Alot of afroamericans need to get their house in order. But so do whites who are doing the same.

Ya think?
Already covered. Go back and read my post. But again, "necessity or practically" are not valid excuses.
You're not saying that black people are like pit bulls and white people are like goldens? You sure as hell picked an really odd analogy if that's not what you're saying. Hello? HELLO?? Do you really think people will fall for that one? That's exactly what you're saying. Go back and read your own post.
So if something is necessary but not ok, it's still ok? As long as it's necessary for a cop to <insert dubious behavior that's "not right" here>, it's ok? Great, we've got a free-for-all now. "It's necessary".
Again, sure there are stereotypes, no one has disputed that. It's your "it's necessary" argument that doesn’t' work.
Pit bulls and goldens... Analogy have nothing to do with the fact that we're talking about blacks and whites?
Pure coincidence?
