I can only go by the two examples they list but,...

[Yonivore]

So, anyone come up with three examples of racism?

Here, let me prompt you with one I found...

" the white people, kill the white people"



I know, MSNBC didn't report this so, it didn't happen.

Search of MSNBC for "ZEMIR BEGIC"

Search of MSNBC for "ZEMIR"

Search of MSNBC for "BEGIC"

I tried a number of searches, "Croatian killed in Ferguson," "Hammer beating in Ferguson," " the White People, Kill the White People," and various other iterations, using key words and phrases, looking for an MSNBC story on the murder of Zemir Begic.

The only positive response I received was when I plugged in " the White People, Kill the White Peole:"

Amnesty International slams Ferguson over human rights abuses

Searched the article -- they don't mention Mr. Begic, either.

[ChumpDumper]

Well, Begic wasn't killed in Ferguson, so again you might want to get even the most basic of facts correct.

[Spurminator]

So, anyone come up with three examples of racism?

You're hopeless. It's not worth the effort.

[Yonivore]

You're hopeless. It's not worth the effort.

I'll take that as a no.

[Yonivore]

Well, Begic wasn't killed in Ferguson, so again you might want to get even the most basic of facts correct.

Whatever, he was killed by a mob chanting " the white people, kill the white people." Where doesn't negate the racism.

And, their acts were apparently motivated by what happened in Ferguson.

[ChumpDumper]

Whatever

Get your facts straight.

[FromWayDowntown]

I'll take that as a no.

Hey look! We've now proven that there's no racism in America, except of course for the rampant racism against Whitey!

[Yonivore]

Hey look! We've now proven that there's no racism in America, except of course for the rampant racism against Whitey!

I'm open to examples of other types of racism.

[Yonivore]

Get your facts straight.

You're right, I'll try to do better but, it wasn't a fact that changed the point being made.

[Spurminator]

Your point is based on dubious rumors.

[Yonivore]

Your point is based on dubious rumors.

And you have yet to make a point to the contrary. However, the contemporaneous statements of a person recording an event aren't exactly rumor but, I get your point. It would have been better if the recording had actually contained footage of the mob chanting " the white people, Kill the white people."

Can you cite examples?

Here's another one...

BLACK RACISM UNCHAINED

White Americans are under assault, and with the re-election of President Barack Obama, black racism is on the rise!

There’s no better example of black racism than when actor Jamie Foxx hosted “Saturday Night Live” and joked about his new film, “Django Unchained”: “I get free. I save my wife and I kill all the white people in the movie. How great is that?” He went on to say, “My president, President Obama, is back up in the White House for four more years. How black is that?”

How dumb is that? Just imagine if a white actor joked about how much he enjoyed shooting black people. And what if that same actor gloated about how great it is to have a white president like George W. Bush back in the White House? The NAACP, the godless Congressional Black Caucus, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and the rest of the liberals would be marching in the streets.

And, another...

Teenagers poured gasoline on boy walking home from school and set him on fire: cops

There's my three. Your turn.

So what is your evidence that this murder was racially motivated?

I saw no such quotes from the victim's fiancee, who witnessed the attack firsthand. Maybe you could give me a link where she did.

Yes, and if the police hadn't said they had no reason to believe it was racially motivated, and if the wife of the victim had said anything about those chants, and if the reporting of those chants wasn't limited to Infowars/Stormfront sites.

LOL WorldNetDaily

If you've devolved into a Cosmored/Mouse type poster then you will be treated as such. Enjoy.

You don't know that. The person recording could just be repeating a rumor.

You're way out over your skis on this one.

Hey, I'm at least making an attempt to show examples of racism. It's hard to find them. What have you ponied up, aside from a few graphs where even less proof is shown of racism.

I'm trying to get you to provide examples of the pervasive racism in this country. The OP demonstrates our two highest profile African Americans are willing to lie in order to make it appear to be a pervasive problem, I'm simply asking for more than just your trying to force me to accept some article of faith, on the left, that racism is still pervasive in this country.

[Yonivore]

You don't know that. The person recording could just be repeating a rumor.

You're way out over your skis on this one.

You won't even put your skis on.

Give me an example that demonstrates pervasive racism in this country.

[ChumpDumper]

Back yours up.

Where is the quote from the fiancee saying the attackers said "Kill the white people!"?

And you call Jaime Foxx's joke evidence of pervasive racism?

lol

Yes.

You're a very delicately sensitive white person.

[Spurminator]

The OP is a laughable premise in the first place. It's a (poorly-written) People Magazine article, and you've somehow twisted a humorous anecdote into a sinister plot to keep the white man down. I don't think what the First Lady encountered at Target was an example of pervasive racism and I don't believe she intended for it to be interpreted that way.

I do believe black people may see racism in situations where there isn't necessarily racism, but that's primarily because of the actual racism they experience elsewhere. You obviously believe that is all in their imagination, and no amount of Internet Message Board discussion is going to convince you otherwise.

If you want specific every day examples of pervasive racism, I suggest you include more black people in your social circle and talk to them about it.

[Cry Havoc]

Yoni. Can't get much more pathetic than this.

[Cry Havoc]

No one wants to be my monkey, so therefore I have solved racism!

Now, you choose distort the premise of the thread and attack that distortion? I never said anything about Mic e Obama's anecdote being part of a "plot to keep the white man down."

I asked why, in the context of a conversation about racism she had experienced, she would use this anecdote.

The Obamas open up about raising their daughters, the impact of stereotypes, and what's on the POTUS dance party playlist. Subscribe now for instant access to the exclusive PEOPLE interview.

The protective bubble that comes with the presidency – the armored limo, the Secret Service detail, the White House – shields Barack and Mic e Obama from a lot of unpleasantness. But their encounters with racial prejudice aren't as far in the past as one might expect. And they obviously still sting.

"I think people forget that we've lived in the White House for six years," the first lady told PEOPLE, laughing wryly, along with her husband, at the assumption that the first family has been largely insulated from coming face-to-face with racism.

"Before that, Barack Obama was a black man that lived on the South Side of Chicago, who had his share of troubles catching cabs," Mrs. Obama said in the Dec. 10 interview appearing in the new issue of PEOPLE.

"I tell this story – I mean, even as the first lady – during that wonderfully publicized trip I took to Target, not highly disguised, the only person who came up to me in the store was a woman who asked me to help her take something off a shelf. Because she didn't see me as the first lady, she saw me as someone who could help her. Those kinds of things happen in life. So it isn't anything new."

She was using the anecdote as an example of racism she's experienced...even when she had to know she had characterized the entire event as something else on the Letterman show. Why not come up with a real example?

I do believe black people may see racism in situations where there isn't necessarily racism, but that's primarily because of the actual racism they experience elsewhere.

Well, that's on them. Why did Mic e Obama not use an example of "actual racism" instead of lying about her encounter with some helpful lady at a a Target. As a side note, the lady who helped Ms. Obama claims to be an Obama voter who was thrilled when she shared that anecdote on Letterman; I wonder what she thinks now.

You obviously believe that is all in their imagination, and no amount of Internet Message Board discussion is going to convince you otherwise.

What else do I have to go on? You won't provide examples, I just keep getting yelled at about how no examples are necessary, it's just a fact that racism is pervasive in this country.

If you want specific every day examples of pervasive racism, I suggest you include more black people in your social circle and talk to them about it.

You mean, like this guy?



And, I'm talking about Terry Swoops, not the blacks he's talking about in his video.

You win Yonivore. There is no racism in this country against blacks, the only hate crimes ever committed are against white people, Mic e Obama is a calculating race bait liar, and Democrats in the US Government faked the moon landings.
