Half of those stats weren't even relevant to a racist argument (and I don't even think phyzik was trying to be racist). I don't think you'd know what a truth nuke was if you were standing in Hiroshima. Shit, how long did it take you to give up on Jimmer?Quote:

My whole stance on this (and my true purpose for posting the stats) is that I have been appalled by some of the shit the media has been showing regarding this. I was angry with the cops as well after following the narrative the media wants you to see, but then I started actually looking deeper into this mess.Quote:

I still have issues with the way law enforcement handles some of these situations, and there is definitely an undertone of racism present, but I feel it is reaching "boy cried wolf" levels at this point. It is all exacerbated because the media reports only the "cop shoots unarmed black man" stories because that's what makes money. You will never hear the story about the white unarmed guy who was killed by police because nobody cares.
What's "the argument." He didn't source his arguments; but they were consistent with many stats I've seen. Are you struggling with the truth?Quote:

Serious question for you, Kool, and trill...as black men do you actually get harassed by cops? Two of my closest friends are brothas and they are very passionate about this but tell me they have never been pulled over or harassed by cops...makes me wonder if it really is a daily hassle or if its exaggerated a bit.Quote:

All I can relate is my own interactions with law enforcement. Every time I have been stopped or questioned by law enforcement, regardless if I have done nothing wrong or when I know I was in the wrong, I treat them with respect and follow their instructions. Never have a problem with them when I do that. Yeah, it sucks getting taken in for whatever reason it may be that they stopped you (weather it is right or wrong), but I think complying with them only helps your case in the long run.Quote:

Having said that, other than those 2 times, I have been pulled over several more times and been released with a warning (or a simple ticket). Living in San Antonio as a white person, I am a minority.... I dont think I have EVER been pulled over by a white cop here. The only white officer I know is my brother, who works in the county jail and is not a beat cop. If you just comply with their demands and not be a fucking dick (and explain your situation) they really dont GAF about the minor shit.... Act respectful and be calm, admit you did something wrong and accept the ticket and they will leave you alone.
If you act like an asshole who is supposedly being oppressed by the popo when you are acting a fool, expect to get your shit wrecked.
Putting aside that you're the biggest racist in the NBA section of SpursTalk, this post and your comprehension is terrible, tbh:lolQuote:

Accidents vs intentional actions as opposed to mine which was two intentional actions, and you're comparing two things which are only vaguely related as opposed to exactly related.Quote:

In any case, he only "diversion" is to whine about fucking LESS THAN ONE PERCENT of black deaths every year that happen at the hands of police when they fucking kill eachother for nearly 19 of every 20 black killings. Forgive me for not listening too hard when they aren't making a big deal about that.
"Black Lives Matter" movement is a joke to me and will remain to be one as long as they hypocritically focus on the less than 10% of black deaths that happen at the hands of non blacks and barely say shit about the fact they kill eachother way more than anyone else does.
These same inept, unintelligent dipshits blame Hillary for their probs and shit talk her when she's been one of the few to even show she gave a shit. Their priorities are all wrong and so is their logic. Fucking stupid movement until that changes.
And no I don't think it's okay if police kill unarmed, non threatening blacks, nor do I think a movement of that kind wouldn't be a good thing. . .if they actually made a proportional effort to speak out and draw attention to black on black crime to a proportional amount more than how many blacks die to police. But they don't, and won't, and thus I will always view it was disingenuous finger pointing without taking much responsibility for their own far greater issues.
Not a bad nor false analogy at all. Car accidents are not always unintentional (plenty of drunk drivers). If you want we can change it to the obesity epidemic in the US or suicides (clearly intentional actions).Quote:

The point that apparently still escapes you is that it's perfectly fine to have a discussion on the topic of police brutality, despite how many black on black, black on white, white on black, etc crimes occur. The fact that the magnitude of a completely different set of events is higher, doesn't make the other conversation any less relevant or important. They're two different topics. Even if you want to advance they're tangentially connected (which they're really not), talking about one topic doesn't invalidate the other. Bringing the other topic up is clearly a dodge though.
And this is not a defense of BLM or anything like that. It's a simple rational argument about the validity of any discussion.
More importantly, I don't give a shit about what goes on in the ghetto. May as well try to pin starvation in Africa on me too. My skin color doesn't make me beholden to others who share my ethnicity, but it sure as shit can make me more vulnerable in a situation where I am confronted by a police officer.
I love how these ignorant white people that have never been to a hood act like Black people don't care about Black on Black crime, tbh:lol
It's a huge issue in the community that has been constantly discussed among Black people for the past 40 years..in my hood growing up, we had neighborhood "walk-throughs" from police on a weekly basis, generated by the requests of families in the community that were tired of drugs, guns, etc..it's a discussion that never ends..
Anyways, it's completely irrelevant in this discussion, regardless..the actions of a police officer should never be compared to the behavior of gangbangers, that's just a ridiculously stupid argument..
They don't.Quote:

Meh, at least LBJ isn't an Uncle Tom like Colin Kapernick and his bretheren of followers. Glad LBJ has a solid handle on reality and will do more for black activism than being a spoiled, over privileged athlete that thinks taking a knee is something revolutionary instead of what it is- an empty gesture posed by empty shells of people. Bron real, kneeling for the anthem is lazy, coonish Uncle Tommery.
Kap- Uncle Tom
Cam- Bucking the trend. Says, "Fuck y'all dumb niggas perpetuating dead stereotypes and being distractions while the Man continues to put us in chains. I don't fall in with y'all Uncle Tom's continue being told what to do."
Lil Wayne- Bucking the trend. DEAD-ASS HONEST dude. Said he NEVER experienced REAL racism AT ALL, like 90% of the black population. Not an Uncle Tom for following the Uncle Toms in their falsehoods and victimization ploy.
LBJ- Refuses to be King Coon Uncle Tom by bucking the trend. Refuses to be King White Jordan II because we all know damn well Jordan aint been black for 20-30 years now. Dude is a slave master who HATES, absolutely HATES black people. Glad LBJ can be a champion for the colored masses who use their brain to INDEPENDENTLY think can look up to.
Most blacks don't know what true suffering is. Americans in general dont. Our "poverty" is still better than 90% of the world. Blacks are just drama queens that need to get over it. And just because Cam overcame and succeeded in life, how do you know what he went thru before that?Quote:

A lack of responsibility and passive aggressively diverting attention and blame elsewhere. I dislike anybody who does shit like that and BLM is no exception.
If blacks want cops to stop shooting them, perhaps taking responsibility for the fact their race commits more crime per capita and acts the loudest and most aggressive while openly being hostile towards police and making a movement to change their own fucking behavior to fit into society more civilly would yield better results than to bitch about people reacting to it in a completely logical manner (being more apprehensive around them when they're being arrested for crimes or stopped by police).
Take some fucking responsibility by speaking to black communities about getting their shit together first. If AFTER they do that and there is a noticeable change, and cops are acting the same, then BLM would have a point and I would say nothing negative about it. "Survival of the fittest". Ever hear of that? It doesn't mean "only the strong survive", it means those that fit in the best to their environments do. Blacks need to make a better effort to fit in rather than bitch they aren't being accepted as they specifically choose not to then bitch about it with shitty movements.
I will not apologize for not taking seriously someone who lives like a slob with trash everywhere bitching that I didn't put a plate in the sink promptly enough. Stop living like a fuckin slob first then I'll listen to you about being tidy myself.
