peenie 1,685 Posted September 24, 2020 3 minutes ago, nobody said: That's not the definition of racism any more. It's if you have any bias at all. For instance, if you see someone's name is John O'Brien and you assume that he's white, you're racist. That's not racist, that is a stereotype or making a generalization.

It’s black males between 18-35 last I looked. the ages may have been adjusted, but the basic stat holds. 14 minutes ago, Hardcore troubadour said: I know your stat is true, but the really crazy part is the majority of that 13 pct aren’t doing the crimes. It’s actually 1-2 pct of the overall population responsible for half the crime. I would say 2%-4% are still actively participating in crime and the ones out of the age bracket mentioned above were likely criminals in their younger days. That meme is also kind of old now, it's surely gotten much worse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It seems that too often the initial, and then too the follow up, information is not true when it comes to how the media works these. For sure. I chose that article because it specifies the two places she was currently working. I'd like to think that if people were mentioning places by name and she didn't work there those places would speak up and say that. It's a pretty minor part of this story anyways. She had no criminal record. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unfortunately the simple definition does not allow for minority groups to act in a racist manner, so the definition was "revised" to suggest that its based on "power" which then allows minority groups to be as racist as they please. I don't subscribe to the "new" definitions either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So using the method that Democrats used when Obama was the president, you are racist... If you remember, any time someone disagreed with a policy that Obama had, they were immediately tagged a racist... Since you dislike one of his policies and since you are black, you are a racist as well... Also I have said in the past, that the word "racist/racism" does not mean anything any more because the word is thrown around all the time... I know you know that disagreeing with a policy isn't racism just because Trump is white and you are black, but that word is thrown around like crazy against whites... We dislike a policy thrown forward by a black politician, we are racists... We think BLM is a terrorist organization because there is a lot of looting/rioting in the protests, we are racists...

The wall and it's negative impact on wildlife Well, you should look up the impact wind power has on wildlife if you really do care about wildlife. Your article sure uses the words "could" and "potential" a lot. It seems very light on actual facts regarding what WOULD happen. But we make those tradeoffs all the time. Our cities wouldn't exist but for their negative impact on wildlife. There is a cost/benefit analysis we have to do every time we build a highway or any other construction project. Most projects have to be approved, and part of that approval process is analyzing that cost/benefit so I would assume we've had that discussion regarding the wall. You never answered my question.
