The Ferguson thread / additional race discussion

Again, you're deliberately trying to blur the lines.
You're talking about war and this is a discussion about civil law.

OK, then Osama Bin Laden when he got killed? He's a victim? He wasn't given a trial? Would classify Mussolini as a victim? He was murdered by Communists without a trial.

Come on LosBlancos this is besides the point. He was a victim of a war. Victim is not the right word, but I don´t wanna go there.
What do you think it would happen if he went to trial?! Balance the cost benefit.
But, I agree with Spacejunk, this is about civil law..

"Civil law" no, "criminal law" yes.

We've always had laws that allow citizens to protect themselves with deadly force and police officers as well. Maybe this case can get to the Supreme Court and the law will be changed to say if you rob a convenience store and attack an officer you can't be shot.
 
To be fair to the ones who hang me and stuff, if God made me choose which associated people lived while the rest died, I'd choose Whites.

I seem to talk myself in knots though. No pun intended, but what I end up saying does NOT always represent how I am or feel. I'm not overly uncomfortable around 'non whites'. If one group over another makes me uncomfortable, it is males. And Black males perhaps make me least comfortable. There could be a number of reasons for this. And I am "at home", generally, more around whites than any other. And that is something that is hard to find. Its not that I'm so uneasy around others. Just that I'm not as at ease. In my experience.

And much of what I write may not be so clear cut how it seems it is according to the words I've smacked down. They're tests. Attempts to communicate and often they are exploring the words to try to match with how I feel. You won't find very many posts of mine that are unedited. I could go on and on. Argue myself. Etc.

To mention, I also choose the shortest line, more or less. And there is a girl at Whole Foods that I go to, to her line, over white males and most females otherwise... And she is Black. I go to her because she is friendly and unique. She's one who makes me challenge my box. Who allows me to see I simply assign things ways sometimes, and it may not be how I assign, and argue.

Its very complex. I am in many ways fed up with a lot of it. I've said if I had children I'd love whoever loved them, and whoever they loved. Daughter could marry a good black guy. Fine. In my life I don't find 'home' with a black female. I haven't. I've only found the home feeling with light skinned light eye red hair or blond hair, in my experience (though I extend that it may not be as rigid).

I could write and write some more about immigration and refugees and how it sucks (not to judge), and how I want Europe to stay European and don't want a pipeline of colorereds pumped in for the next hundreds of years, but eh, I'd rather get stoned and realize its not worth arguing about right now... After I eat.

Knee jerk reaction= Hang them, then light them on fire. If protests ensue, arrest them all and put them on a boat heading East South East.

Just being honest.

I know, but again, remember the T-shirt example.
You are not allowed to joke about certain things. Allowed yes, but following a criteria, so to speak..
 
spacejunk said:
^ yeah we can joke about anything.
But we are also talking to each other via a medium that does not allow users to;

Making jokes is fine, just as it is also fine to assert that something is offensive, misleading or simply bullshit.
Like this:


Capital punishment and extrajudicial killings are not the same thing.

4c. Posting contempt of prejudice through sarcasm is allowed, however please make it clear that you are being sarcastic--such intentions can easily be mistaken for prejudice. If in doubt, use emoticons to help make your point.

and it also says this

1. DON'T RESORT TO PERSONAL ATTACKS - Lesson: If you are challenged by the opinion of someone else in a particular matter, go after the opinion and not the opponent. This is otherwise known as an Ad Hominem fallacy, that poor debaters use because they can't mount a proper response. We want to maintain respect for each other in this forum..

Give me a break.

Question-

Where are the perpetrators right now?

Surely not living freely in the Florida Keys. I've they've been let go scot free or on paid vacation instead, I'll meet you at the PD and courthouse tomorrow to demand their arrest and trial.

he is just honest. Most people, if not all make some judgement call in that situation. A judgement call that goes through their mind every time that situation comes up. Even you my friend, everyone does. Question, do you ever talk about the topic of the thread or do you just make jabs at the people you dont like?

I have racist impulses sometimes too. But a part of being a civilised human capable of critical thought is to apply the rational part of your mind and not act on momentary impulses.

Just make sure their on your property or close enough to drag them onto it.
 
I've never 'acted on it' whatever 'it' is. Its not like I get genocidal thoughts when exposed to people of other races.

Anyways, I spent about an hour trying to put my thoughts down about the comparing of violence that is state sanctioned and between citizenry. I wanted to say it is almost insulting to those in the camp of supporting the cry against perceived police violence against blacks, to bring up how often blacks kill blacks, and even interracial crime... But no, I have to also think it may relate.

And, attitude got Mike Brown killed.
