That's a problem in the white community too.

You make it sound like every white kid is born in the burbs to a dad making $250K+.

Imagine if we applied affirmative action to professional sports:
72% white guys
12% black guys
6% Asians
10% other
:ohno:
I'll take it one step further:
63% non hispanic white
17% hispanic white
12.3% black
5% Asian
2.5% multiracial

Although the article "Census: White majority in U.S. gone by 2043" should have said "Non hispanic white majority on pace to be gone by 2043".

I don't disagree with that, you're putting words in my mouth. the "decadence" of black culture (bleh, I feel that's racist but that's another discussion for another time maybe) is largely due to poverty, which can be tied to discrimination historically and currently.

So again, what is the statute of limitations for how long you're going to allow black people to blame their situation on white people. It's been 148 years so far.

200 years? 300 years? Never.

Will living white people in America ever not be blamed for something they had nothing to do with? Will they have to step aside and let black folks get special treatment because of something the white folks had nothing to do with? How does this contribute to racial harmony in America?

THIS.

This is precisely why you are going to have trouble with most of the posters who have a little more experience than you. You are quoting studies that simply point out that police spend more time in predominately black neighborhoods than white ones. You haven't even come close to the stage where you are asking yourself why this is so. You're happy to take the stats at face value, quote them for the sake of argument and then move on.

I strongly suggest that you do a ride-along or three with your local PD. You might find that reality is something different from Sociology 101.

<sigh>
It's racist by your definition, but it isn't by mine, does that make sense? in other words it's not prejudice + power. I conceded that it "could be" racist because I didn't think that was the important part of the argument. I was trying to communicate the important part (the disproportionate amount of discrimination that people of color face) and so I conceded that so you guys wouldn't continue to dwell on that.

It's important to know that whenever people of color are talking about racism or women are talking about sexism, they're using my definition of the term, so they'll laugh if you say men can be victims of sexism, whites of racism, etc.

It's also important to understand that my argument isn't solely on the perspective of a couple black guys, there's also a lot of theory that goes behind it that I haven't even really talked about, critical race theory being one of them. This is simple sociology.

I've dealt an argument and I've presented evidence about economic numbers and so on. You guys haven't. Until you can put forth some sort of statistical evidence that whites are discriminated more than blacks, I'm going to stand by my position
I don't believe anyone on here has claimed that. What they have pointed out, is that there is some discrimination against whites, which is true.

No, but the common trope on here and AGS is to bring him up to quell my criticism or arguments or whatever I'm talking about. It's overdone and it never works and at this point I think it's just a cheap way to use my dad as some sort of caricature. He's my father, stop.
