This Is Why People Think Blacks Are Viciously Racist Animals

The first three are tasty meats...never had gila monster. Would try it though...
I'll tell you right now, no black man is in prison doing hard time for his first marijuana possession charge. If you truly think that every single cop out there paroling the streets is looking for a black guy just so they can throw him in jail, you have some serious issues.
And no, greater violence in a black neighborhood would have nothing to do with prosecution rates. I would be willing to bet that one of the single largest contributing factors to that is the inability to hire a good attorney. Good attorneys make all the difference in the world. Black guys with good attorneys get off too. Don't forget that. But before I can comment on the prosecution rates, I would like to do a bit more research on it.
Charlie Sheen is not the only example my friend. Paris Hilton gets caught with coke and gets a slap on the wrist. Mike Vick gets caught abusing dogs and some whites were claiming he deserves the death penalty..really? Notice how when rappers are caught with drugs the police are always RIGHT ON it. Coincidence much? Its like the cops are just waiting for a black dude to fuck up and the moment they trap them, here the cops and ATF come swarming.
And OJ Simpson got away with murder, Michael Jackson got away with touching little boys, Daunte Stallworth served 1 month in jail for KILLING someone during a DUI... I had a friend who was white, who was driving drunk and got a year in prison because someone got HURT.... you're looking for something that isn't there dude...
Pete Rose bet on baseball, got based from baseball for life, Daunte Stallworth killed someone, he's back playing the next year... Plaxico shot himself in the leg with an unregistered fire arm, in a club, endangering other people... but he'll be back playing shortly!
Yeah look at the rappers, they get caught with INSANE amounts of drugs, unregistered firearms, etc dude, there is more to it, don't be a fool. Paris Hilton got arrested with less than 1 gram of coke.. you're right, she got a slap on the wrist... lil waynes bus on the other hand had 29 GRAMS of cocaine, 41 grams of ecstacy, 105 grams of pot, $22k in cash and 3 firearms in a state you aren't allowed to have them.. you don't see the difference here? For god sakes, open your eyes, stop making excuses, you're beginning to look desperate.
Unfortunately for Michael Vick, he went where no person should go... and thats animal cruelty... he was a big name, they threw the book at him. I don't think that had anything to do with him being black.
Not an apples to apples comparison. That bitch should definitely be thrown in jail. And the death penalty is obviously excessive. Nevertheless, DON'T FUCK WITH ANIMALS. Vick is a piece of shit for doing so, lowest of the low (and it has nothing to do with his skin color) - DON'T FUCK WITH ANIMALS.
Well let's see, he said, "Intelligent people recognize cause and effect, and that you can't just look at statistics to tell anything close to the whole story regarding human behavior. Dumbass."
So, the way I interpret that, is that I need to look at "the cause", right? So far this thread's "causes" have been "socioeconomic factors", in other words, 150 years ago blacks were slaves, and that is the reason for their behavior today. Who enslaved them, the white man. It comes down to it's always the white mans fault no matter what. Haven't you noticed that trend? There hasn't been one black man in this thread to step up and admit that there is a problem amongst the community such as others like Bill Cosby and even Obama have done.
Now if I'm wrong, and he's going to blame blacks as the "cause," well then I apologize for my blame whitey statement... but I'm willing to bet he wasn't going there.
I think it's socioeconomic factors, but I don't blame whites.
What whites did a couple hundred years ago hardly becomes our fault today.
But that doesn't change the fact that socioeconomic factors are important.
The cause is neither individually. Both blacks AND WHITES contribute to the problems. If you think black people have the same opportunities and are treated equally to whites you're delusional. Look at just the effects of Race on employment. Here's a start to knock the veil off your face: http://www.economics.harvard.edu/faculty/mullainathan/files/emilygreg.pdf . But I'm guessing the only problem with employment and race is that all these unqualified blacks are getting the white mans jobs through affirmative action, right?
I dont know how old u are or how much u have actually researched the black experience in America...but slavery/jim crow has and will continue to have a major impact on black folks behavior for some time because the effects are still being passed down through generations and for the most part, blacks are still segregated to the worst parts of town.
Every cause has an effect and this is the unfortunate result of 400 years of oppression and violence. Undoubtedly, there are black people who have been able to rise above the negative behavior/attitudes of their environments...but there are countless others that have not and those are the ones you see being broadcast in an unfavorable light as a representation of our people as a whole.
The confidence and ambition instilled in white children for generations has just started to trickle down to black children for maybe the past 30 years or so...and this is only if the child was lucky enough to have had parents that were progressive and possibly middle class...The 80's proved to be a major speed bump in terms of financial, mental and social development due to the crack epidemic and the spate of teen pregnancy that occurred in the black community and America at large...u pretty much had babies raising babies or crackheads raising babies (these are the kids we see in these types of violent and exhibitionist videos popping up all over the internet now).
Perhaps the next generation of black kids will be better mannered, better behaved, technologically inclined, and more productive to society overall. This may happen because most of us contemporary blacks wince when we see us portrayed in an unfavorable manner and thus will strive to raise our kids to act like they got some god damn sense.
Sounds like everyone has an excuse to why we are in this current disposition. Sure whites have shitted on us the last 400 years, but in the modern day that is no excuse for how we act and how we are as a collective. There are an ample amount of opportunities for blacks to succeed in this country/world, but we just dont capitalize on them.
We can stand around stagnant forever looking at the world pass us by, with a hand full of excuses and conspiracy theories...Or we can take ownership for our faults and work on them. Because dwelling on past will only keep us in the past.
We have all the conspiracies in the world as to why we are not how we should be. Is the government making all these black fathers leave there families? Is the white man causes our people not to finish college? Ive herd white people complain on how much benefit us minorities receive for school. Yes we do have set backs in this country, thats how it is, but its time to stop playing the blame card and tighten up.
You can't really give an decent argument on how White folks are holding you down when dropped out in the 10th grade. Now if you have a college degree and you still can't find work, then you'll have a legitimate argument to make. But having a criminal record and a serious lack of education isn't going to make want to listen on how you have been held back.
Black people need to realize that no one is going to give us an inch. So everything we get has to be earned. And we not only have to be just as good as our White counterparts, but two or three times as good.

If the parents aren't there, the motivation needs to come from their successful counter parts. It seems most want to grow up to be Lil Wayne or Lebron James, not Obama. There are a lot of white kids that grow up poor. Let me correct that. There are TONS of white kids that grow up poor. That is not an excuse. Motivation is something that is inside each and every one of us. You see the ghetto you live in, you see the mansions. Which one do you want? How hard do you want to attain that mansion? Are you willing to put in the effort for it?
We live in a society today where you CAN get an education provided to you. All you have to do is pass your basic classes and there are opportunities available to you to get a college education. No one and I mean NO ONE can "prevent" you from getting that. There is no "profiling" or racial bias that goes into it. It is 100000000% there, the opportunity is smacking you in the face, and the community doesn't take advantage of it. Let me just ask you this, what more can the white man do? At one point do you pass off the baton and say this is your race now?
You can't hold on to the past and continue to use that as an excuse for the future. 400 years of oppression is not the reason that kids don't go to school and end up being criminals in 2011. If they have EVER spent *ONE* day in school, they are told what to do, they are told how to be successful. Every guidance counseler has told them what to do, they aren't doing it. "Go to school, get good grades, get your education." It's not like we're talking about there are only 8 successful blacks, there are *MILLIONS*. The day and age of excuses are over with.
It is not my fault, that a crackhead is raising a crackhead. That crackhead knows right from wrong, that has NOTHING to do with slavery. It has to do with their poor decision making, that again, has nothing to do with 400 years of "oppression". Oppression is not being able to get a job, not being able to get an education, not having rights based on skin color. Today, that is a criminal offense. With millions and millions of successful blacks, this is hard to believe.
I'm sorry but blacks have just as much of a fair opportunity as whites, if not more. With the exception of some fucking hillbilly ass white trash owned business, which is VERY few and far between, but of course, still exists, if the black man has better, or even equal qualifications to that of a white man, they will be the one that gets the job.
I give up. Did you read the link I posted? That's just one example of how what you said is NOT TRUE.
You are right the whole thing is shameful...
Wrong is wrong not matter WHO does it. The race of the perpetrator does not change this fact. But, our perceptions in this country are so twisted that you can describe the exact same situation, and get 2 different interpretations; just by changing the races of the people involved? Why is that?
It is because of our conditioning; we are all subject to our conditioning; bar none!
We generally like to think that we are fair and unbiased; but we all are influenced by what we believe; either right or wrong...

While hellblazer is over the top, you're still ignoring the statistics that a higher percentage of violent crime is caused by black people in the US. Conditioning yeah, but what about it and what can change that for the better?
No, I did not read the entire thing. You have one particular test case that was done. I'm not trying to justify that its acceptable, but consider the names. Lakisha and Jamal, you picked 2 of the most stereotypical, ghetto black names, that you could have possibly picked. They based all of their "it's x amount times harder for a black to get a job" and "It requires X amount more applications to get a call back" based off 2 names. I'm here to tell you, not all black men and women are named Jamal and Lakisha.
Like I said, I'm not saying it's right, I just want you to think about it like this... if it was your company and you were looking to hire someone, who would you call back? Assuming you had limited time and resources and just wanted to hire someone quick? Be honest. Emily or Lakisha? Which, based on name, would you give the benefit of the doubt to? If the person that is responsible for hiring has gone through life knowing more Emily's than Lakishas, and has only seen Lakishas on Maury, who do you think is going to get a call back?
Trust me, based on names, it is unfortunate. It should be based on the resume, not the name. I do feel that black parents that name their kids Jamal, Jerome, Jermaine, Leroy, Lakisha, Shaquita, and any of the other stereotypical 'ghetto' name, are setting their kids up for failure (again, this should not have to be a worry for the applicant, but it is something parents should consider). They may be the NICEST, SMARTEST, people, but when you look at a large percentage of the ones with those particular names, they tend to be the ones you see on Maury, if it's a toss up, you go with the one you're more comfortable with.
You know, another unfortunate thing that employers have to worry about is race discrimination. You can hire a white guy, and fire him for no reason, and life goes on. You can hire a black guy, fire him, and he can throw up a race lawsuit, claim its because he's black, and win. Just like a lot of black on white crime is just crime, but white on black is immediately a hate crime. Let me put it like this, you have 2 applicants, one is a male, one is a pregnant female. It's your company, you know that if you hire the male, chances are, there won't be any extended maternity leave, or multiple trips weekly to the doctor, but you KNOW its guaranteed with the pregnant woman. Should this be a factor? No, but you know what, its your god damn company, and shit has to get done. Chances are, which is going to be less of a risk to your business as the employer?
I dont think you guys are paying attention to my posts...I am not making excuses for why Blacks arent succeeding or performing according to societies norms...I am explaining the various afflictions and how they effect perception of opportunities.
If you are the child of a young mother whose only focus is getting high all day...you have more pressing issue going on than getting good grades or even attending school. You may be concerned about how in the hell you're gonna eat tonight! I have grown up in the projects where this is the reality for about a quarter of the kids in my building.
There were nights when we ate cereal with water for dinner or "wish sandwiches" where ur eating 2 slices of bread and wished there was some meat or cheese in that bitch.
When this is your reality, the "opportunity to go to school and get good grades" dont mean shit. On the other hand, the "opportunity to rob a motherfucker" and get some food tonight is looking very viable. Again, I'm not excusing this type of behavior, but I have been there so I understand.
