Remix is 10/10 though
I assume that they must lack manners because of their actionscutting in line
and the fact that they are black statistically ties that back to that they most likely grew up in bad circumstancesbroad generalization, also ironically no one's actually put forward these statistics yet, we've just let you go on long enough to convince yourself they support you
That's not racism at allracism is, technically, any assumption garnered from someone's race. if i look at a mexican guy and say "he's mexican, he must like tacos", that's tribal. if you look at a black kid who's being rowdy and say "since he's black and rowdy, he must be poor", is tribal- maybe not entirely- but basically
How is it NOT relevant? It reflects that I have, from personal experience, found this statistic to be quite true in my own community.What statistic? that black people cut in line more? i'm not seeing the correlation from that statistic to your anecdote, planr
Yeah, I guessed. Do you know what the word guess means? It means I don't really know. So, I used deductive reasoning, and my own knowledge of the relation between a person's behavior and the environment they were raised in, to figure out the most likely reason why those black kids were behaving the way they did. Notice I never related any of it to the color of their skin or their "race". Their race has nothing to do with this, at all. Stop trying to insinuate that it does. "Good white citizens"? Who's being tribal now?then why even point out the fact their black in your shpeal? why not just call them impoverished? you said black like, 5-7 times. i can't order pepperoni pizza and then chastise the server for not listening to my order, i definitely said pepperoni.
The only factor in which the fact that they are black plays in here is that that's simply the group of people that are generally facing such problems the most, not because of who they are- but the circumstances of their family lives, which again, have nothing to do with their skin color. If anything, it's because of the ancestral white southern Americans that so many black people still live in poverty. We learned about this very well in United States History last year at my school.i'm well aware of how white people forgeted over black people and how it's all our fault, don't see how this is supporting your case
Here's a history lesson for you: After the Civil War ended, and the white plantation owners had to release their slaves, many of those slaves had nothing of their own to start a new life with. Of course, since they had nothing, their chances of even traveling to the north were very difficult without direct intervention from others who were more fortunate. So what happened? Sharecropping. The white plantation owners let many of those black families/freed slaves back to their plantations to work on it, in exchange for food and shelter. It was wasn't quite slavery, as by law they were now free to walk off the plantation and quit whenever they wanted, but like I said, there wasn't much of anywhere else for them to go. They couldn't afford to move north, they couldn't afford to get their own property, so the only thing they really could do was return to a similar environment to the one they had previously despised so much.
The poverty they continued to struggle through continues to this day; the povertic conditions in which so many african americans suffered then was passed down to their children and their grandchildren, and so forth. That's why we still see so many blacks living in poverty to this day, and why there is still such a crCIA for blacks in our country.
Maybe you should reread my post. You'll notice that nowhere did I attribute their behavior to the color of their skin, nor "tie it back to him being black", but to their possible family conditions at home. Disorderly families naturally create disorderly kids. Not "black families create disorderly kids". Their skin color is simply a neutral attribute that so many of them happen to have. It's unfortunate, but the probabilities that a randomly selected african american in the US grew up in a poor family is statistically much higher than that of a white person. That's not racism, that's simply circumstance and fact.i'm reading between the lines planr. it doesn't take a whole history lesson and 5 paragraphs of justification to see how you may be bigoted- it's in the way you're piecing these thoughts together and the way you're presenting them.
Cutting in line and committing crimes certainly are bad in far different ways, but both stem from a similar source in this case though, and that's a lack of manners and discipline that so many black kids grow up in the US without.look at this stuff. i'm not even done with this retort and you're back to it. re-read what you've just posted a couple of times, for chrissakes
