Re: Minneapolis
Maxine it’s an affront to me simply because I am not a racist. Black lives matter no more than white lives and vice versa. All lives matter.
I get official forms asking me what my race/ethnicity is....and then then they have the guile to state that they are equal opportunity........... That being the case why do they need to ask. No such thing as positive discrimination, that’s just discrimination.....shut up with that racist sh*t. Facts are facts.

Re: Minneapolis
That's very interesting, but some substantive evidence for your 'fact' would be useful &, no doubt, informative.

Re: Minneapolis
Are you seriously suggesting that those conviction numbers are comparable to other similar murder trials across the USA?
Any idea why that might be?
Are you honestly saying that in the USA, a White person has got an equal chance of being shot, as a Black person?
Any idea why that might be?

Re: Minneapolis
From what I read the Four police officers were initially fired from their jobs, without being charged and I think that’s what’s caused the outrage and protests. The main Perp’ has now been charged, but wasn’t initially........Why Not ?
There’s no excuse for all the looting etc of course, but if the four cops had been arrested immediately and charged then a lot of the trouble probably wouldn’t have happened.

Re: Minneapolis
Paddy freakish..I did what you could have done and googled it and according to this 92% of blacks were murdered by blacks.
I guess you could say that when I stated it as a fact it was factual. No?.

I know it’s shitposting from you and you know why people are still protesting, but I think it’s completely out of redcards mental range

Re: Minneapolis
Nuneatonos. Yes I have more than an idea why blacks are more likely to be shot than whites in the u.s.a. Probably because they are massively more disproportionately to be involved in violent crime. Just google it.
Stating these facts doesn’t make me a racist. Facts are facts.

Do you tend to ever dig beyond the ‘facts’ and have a think why that might be the case? Why they might be rioting?Redcard wrote: ↑Sat May 30, 2020 11:00 pm Nuneatonos.

Worlds full of people just spouting ‘facts’ in support of their close minded view, without ever trying to understand why.

Re: Minneapolis
Not surprising. I wouldn’t expect a white, rich, Tory voter to have a single clue as to why poor, black people might possibly be angry. Or in a state of mind that isn’t logical.
Personally, I have no idea why some of the poorest communities on earth, who get left behind by the system, and see their friends and family getting killed by authority figures and have been for 100s of years, might possibly not follow what you deem as rational thought.

Re: Minneapolis
I don’t hate blacks anymore than I hate Scotsmen. Don’t hate Arabs, just Arab terrorists. I am indifferent to gays , they don’t figure in my life. For the record don’t hate scots not even ignorant ones like you.

Apple crumble, I didn’t realize that you had access to my bank account. What makes you think I am rich.
For the record among the highest earners in American media, entertainment, basketball, American football, baseball, athletics, boxing are all black.

Re: Minneapolis
Apple crumble. You can try and justify the looting, violence, burning and destruction of peoples property till the cows come home, but it will not wash with decent law abiding people.

Yeah, you’re right, that means there’s not a race problem. Well done Michael Jordan.

Apple crumble. No what it shows is that regardless of color you get out of life what you put into it. If you work hard enough you get your rewards. There will always be the lucky few born into prosperity , for the rest of us we have to work hard for our rewards.

Re: Minneapolis
Maxine, are you drunk. I made it perfectly clear, they don’t figure in my life and never will, I move in different circles.
I wouldn’t wish any harm to gays but I’ve no interest in their activities, that’s my choice, but I accept that you have an alternative outlook. Do you wear a kilt. Just asking for a friend.
