Black people and white people commit crime at roughly the same rates inside the United States. Black people are approximately 10-12% of the US population. And yet black people make up 45-50% of our prison population. Who actually thought racism was gone? It's awful.
Thank god us Americans are not Amerikkkans.
I've been waiting years for racism's tyrannical reign over the United States to finally end. I am overjoyed that a UK-based news column is the one to declare racism over in the US. /sarcasm
[QUOTE=Vinze;24802365]This is bullshit, America's been low on discrimination for a good while now, minus the republican stuff. America fucks up a lot of things, but they've been pretty stable on that point for the last ten years.[/QUOTE] Dumbest post i've read all day. Just because there is no state racism, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. There is tons of racial conflict in the US. It seems a lot of people on these forums think that the US is no longer a racist country because we've elected a (half) black president. There are no truly non-racist countries, and I doubt there ever will be.

I spell America wrong I am rebellious and cool now.
Is OP forgetting that racism is everywhere? even moreso outside the US? or does he have an agenda to stick too?
America still has racism. And so does every other country.

[QUOTE=Squad;24809429] I have a black friend who was OFFERED a free ride, not because they were smart, or gifted. Nope, because they were BLACK. The university even said they would put them in black living to make them feel more comfortable.
