Walmart looting = Reparations for Blacks

I'm happy for you. I don't pre-empt generalizations because I don't make them.

im willing to bet two months salary that you have made generalizations in your life. it may not be about a race, it may have been a good generalization but that really doesnt change the fact of why you made the generalizations, the concept is the same and that is that generalizations hold some truth.

i know thats hard for people to accept especially when dealing with sensitive issues.

the human cant function in even the most fundamental way without generalisation

not sure how many natural disasters or emergency situations youve been in but i will tell you this is fact. there are people who will stay behind to do exactly what were talking about. that is fact, ive seen it, i know it. not only that, but people will actually enter the area even though govt agencies and news people tell them IT IS dangerous.

im not saying this about any one people, im saying this because it is fact, it happens. you figure the rest out.

100% agree,

What does that have to do with anything?

it was a sarcastic reply to your reply to hatussin, your logic was that since he lived in a lilly white town and only had contact with several blacks and was 18 that he couldnt possibly have a valid arguement. so it reminded me of your rantings about illegal immigration in the US.

and remember i dont need to taste shit to know that it will taste horribly.

btw im just chatting here.

This thread was not created to encourage discourse on the current situation in New Orleans. There's no logic behind this thread. The title speaks for itself.

i absolutely agree but its up to us to correct it.

btw i rode out hurricane alicia in 1983. it was cat 3 but still packed a punch. i was actually pretty scared. i kept hearing what sounded like a frieght train. and that is the noise tornado's make.

and yes i did some looting, minor shit and it wasnt food or water.

the bad thing about the lootings is, its not for food only they are looting tv's vcr's and everything they can get their hands on. its ludicrous what they are doing.

I strongly agree with you. After seeing so many threads like this and trying to correct them (I use to get into battles with people all the time when I first started posting in C&C), you then ignore them. Of course they continue to be created. After awhile, you either completely give up or become emotional.

It is one thing to have a intelligent conversation about a controversial topic. Will some people get upset? Of course. That said, one does not have to be ignorant to be controversial.

Horseshit. People stay because of bravado, machismo, because they don't have the resources to leave whatever. They do not stay expressly for the purpose that they MIGHT get a chance to loot. That's ridiculous and you know it
