you can't have a real conversation with someone, when you post the real numbers and their response is


"You're so full of sh!t, it's not even funny."



at that point it's time to grab a bottle of tequila, fire up the blender and talk about the sabres playoff games next month

Fox news math.

Got it.

Whatever fits your points of view.

Twice the number of whites shot, sure, but conveniently overlooking the fact that there are 6x the number of whites than blacks in this country.

Bureau of Justice
2006 homicide rates per 100,000
Household income less than 10k: 7.2 homicides per 100,000 for whites; 32.6 for blacks.
Household income 85k and over: 15.4 homicides per 100,000 for blacks; 1.9 for whites.

Although I'd hardly classify 85k as "rich" and more as low-mid working class, but those are interesting statistics none the less.

My numbers were right from FBI.

6 times less blacks in America but commit 51% of Violent crimes. You can ignore that fact if you want but it doesn’t make your biased liberal view correct. You can’t argue facts, they don’t care about your feelings

Yet most of the looters are black on my 70 inch TV

Crazy you would think more white people would be looting as there are more white people in America


Even on CNN s cameras

And MSNBC

During these times I watch every network


Mostly because I want to see a few get shot on live TV

Looks like a cop to me

FFS man.. that could be anyone. You can literally go on Craigslist for a job as an instigator for these events.

How do you know it's not Antifa?

Depends on where you live and how good you are with money

If leasing two cars with 49 grand of credit card debt, your broke


Paid off house
Paid off cars
No credit card debt
You're OK

Because gerbe says he looks like a cop. End of story

It seems like you're making 2 competing arguments -

1.) It's not happening

2.) If it is happening, they deserve it

I'll simply reiterate what I said before. I think crime and law inforcement response are a result of disproportionate economic inequality in the African American community that goes back a long way. The other possible reasons, if you choose not to believe that this is a manifestation of poverty - is that black people are lazy and/or more violent than others. That to me is ridiculous and racist on its face. We are one species.

I also don't think most cops are bad people. I think police are an obvious symbol of the system, a system which really doesn't work well for some groups. To that extent, I feel very bad for the good ones - and there are plenty.

All of this is going to keep cropping up unless we address the underlying conditions. I have no idea what the solution is. But thats the problem as I see it.

Three out of the four cops involved in Floyd death were minorities. I guess all white people are cops now

It's funny, isn't it? You can clearly see the broadcast, but are being told it's "those dasterdly white supremacists again!"

when I was a kid, went to my grandparents cottage in penn yann a lot

reading the newspaper, they had a job for a grape sucker


had no clue what the job was then, have no desire to look it up now but I will apply to be one when I have to provide proof of looking for work due to covid 19 issues

True, but anyone making 85k household doesn't have that scenario. I mean, outside of gerbe.

Redford was much better in spy games

That's actually really funny that you ask.. I was just talking to a friend of mine about this yesterday; but given the context, I'm assuming this isn't the movie about Neil Armstrong played by Ryan Gosling

So no, I haven't. I'll check it out though, for sure. I love this stuff.

House almost paid off.

I do fine.

Very underrated movie btw.

You believe black people are a separate species?
- jcragcrumple

What do my beliefs have to do with it? The facts show that there are - we are - multiple species of humans, and we didn't all just spawn from one place. You are Cro-magnon and have approximately 1-5% Neanderthal DNA as well. The complexity of humanity and our roots is so incredibly dense, saying we're just one species is a glaring oversimplification.

How many species of bear are there? Tiger? Canine? Monkey? Shark? Bird?

Look at the Berbers of North Africa, the Guanches of Canary Island, the Basques of the Pyrenees..
