I didn't say racism doesn't exist, I said it doesn't exist in the numbers the left thinks it exists. It is no where even close to as rampant as the left thinks it is.
While that story is tragic, the fact is there are far more white people killed by the police than blacks. By far, the largest killer of blacks in America is other blacks. But if you say that then the left calls you a racist.
Black on white crime is much more prevalent white on black crime.
What I said is based on actual statistics, not hyperbole.
I am also not saying that all or most black people are bad people. The black people I've met were wonderful people.
You just do not judge people based on skin color, ethnic origin or any other part of a person that a person has no control over. However you have to judge people based on ideology or any threat the are posing.
For example, I vehemently disagree with anyone who says I must convert to Islam or they will kill me because their god said that is the law. My God, the one true God, the Creator of everything, would never say anything like that.
I very much disagree with people who believe they have a right to break into my house and do any kind of crime.
I very much disagree with anyone promoting a system of government that has produced nothing but misery, death and extreme poverty whenever it has been tried before.
Their skin color has nothing to do with those ideologies.
Yeah, there's no way to edit a comment once it has been made. So let me correct that:
So true. There is very little racism in this country and that is devastating to the Democrat Party. Their entire existence revolves around racism.
I don't see it. Most of the people I know and have known aren't racists. It's not like I don't get out much or have lived in one place my entire life. I've lived in California, Missouri, Georgia, Hawaii and Utah. There was racism in Hawaii, 40+ years ago when I went to college there. The racism is Hawaiian on white. The Hawaiian word for a white guy is haole which means person without the spirit of aloha. I was in college but I heard in high school they have "kill haole day" at the end of every semester. If you are white you shouldn't go to school that day. White people get passed over for jobs all the time.
But everywhere else I have been I just haven't seen it. I heard racists comments back in the 70's. One time in the 90's my wife and I went into a high end furniture store in So. California. We overheard the person at the front of the store radio back to other store employees that a black couple had entered the store.
But all of this stuff happened decades ago. I just don't think it exists in numbers that matter. Nothing close to as what the left talks about nonstop. I think the most racist thing that exists now is the left's obsession with race. I mean how can you look at someone as your equal if you only see other races through your obsession.
Apparently it has had an effect on the left. There was a Yale study several years ago and they found that leftists "dumb down" their language when they talk to blacks. Conservatives, on the other hand, talk to blacks just like they talk to everyone else.
People get attacked and killed for being anything. By far the biggest kill of blacks is other blacks but for some bizarre reason, if you quote that statistic you are labeled a racist. So I can only guess that liberals want blacks to kill each other.
Racism will always exist. And racism must not be allowed to be defined by the left because they change the definition of words on a regular basis. Racism is a negative action based entirely on a dislike of another person's race. It doesn't matter what race the aggressor is or what race the victim is. What racism is not is someone misinterpreting a facial expression on another person. Racism is not limited to white on black. Racism is not limited to the United States, it's global.
There will always be people who are racists. That will never change, regardless of how much freedom the left takes away from people. But racism in the US is not even close to being as prevalent as the left wants it to be. There is money and power to be gained by race baiting and so the left continues with their obsession over race.
If the left ever dropped that obsession everyone would realize that the number of racists in this country is insignificant.
I think prices would be even lower by now but the uber rich Democrats who run most of the large corporations have TDS so bad that they won't drop their prices.
