[QUOTE=Kyle902;42592129]Not to play the devils advocate, but racism against causasians is actually prevalent in some of the bigger cities.[/QUOTE] i dont deny that, i don't think anyone with common sense does lol ( as long we're discussing racism as in 'i hate people of this color' context ) but what katbug does is exacerbate it to the extreme and imply as if white people are the most prosecuted group in the united states, as if they're a minority being hunted down by african people everyday while we're all ignorant to it

Reverse racism is just racism. Acting like it's special demeans racism to others.
[QUOTE=Kyle902;42592129]Not to play the devils advocate, but racism against causasians is actually prevalent in some of the bigger cities.[/QUOTE] there's a difference between racism perpetrated by individuals and racism perpetrated by institutions which is something people like katbug don't understand.
[QUOTE=katbug;42591800]It's heavily implied by many, and portrayed hardly ever in the media.[/QUOTE] have you considered that maybe its because it happens less often? especially since you have a lot more white people in the US than other ethnicities.

For 12.0 percent, the race was unknown, and the remaining known offenders were of other races.[/QUOTE] reading this topic you get the idea that being white is as bad as being a roma in kosovo or something.

What a white person in America might occasionally experience because of their race is prejudice or, at a one-in-a-million-chance, a random act of violence; but but the omnipresent specter of serious institutional discrimination that actually affects quality of life is something white people in America are entirely free from.
[QUOTE=katbug;42592012]Ooh man there you go, proof of exactly what I was saying. I wasn't saying "pity me, pity me", and yet you whip out a "clever" comment demonizing what I said, as if I was some sort of persecution-minded fool. All I was saying was that violence against blacks in the states is more reported on, especially for violent hate crimes.[/QUOTE] Do you have a source on it being more reported?
[QUOTE=SigmaLambda;42592156] Being the victim of housing discrimination or employment discrimination or political scapegoating doesn't happen to white people anywhere in America.[/QUOTE] Thats untrue. Discrimination against all races and ethnicities exists everywhere. In the US racism against whites and blacks is institutionalized in alot of places.

[QUOTE=Rangergxi;42592205]Thats untrue. Discrimination against all races and ethnicities exists in anywhere. In the US racism against whites and blacks is institutionalized in alot of places.[/QUOTE] No, racism against whites is institutionalized nowhere in America (please don't say that affirmative action is racism against white people because if you say that then I guarantee you that you do not actually understand how affirmative action works).
[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;42592212]Not quite sure how institutional racism has anything to do with what happened in the article, which is a violent assault due to race.[/QUOTE] because the entire first page of this thread was "haha check mate racism does happen against whites and all these tumblr folk claim it doesn't!!" and the point is that no one ever makes that claim about criminal racism but they do about institutional racism this was the point you were supposed to take away from my post instead of getting hung up on a meaningless choice of phrase
[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;42592212]Not quite sure how institutional racism has anything to do with what happened in the article, which is a violent assault due to race.[/QUOTE] What I am arguing is that discrimination against white people is not a thing that meaningfully exists in the same way that the threat of getting struck by lightning is not something everyone has to live with every day. Technically yes, it is a thing, but it is so statistically insignificant that anyone who uses examples of random acts of violence as proof that white people are discriminated against are being intellectually dishonest.
i dont understand why theres a big argument a group of racist cunts beat the crap out of someone they will likely go to jail the end
[QUOTE=lolwutdude;42592112]no it isn't you just live in your own world where white people are actually the ones being prosecuted and think racism barely exists against black people cause you don't see them while white people are being attacked all the time like an epidemic[/QUOTE] Once again, massive projection. I think none of those things.
[QUOTE=abcpea;42592269]i dont understand why theres a big argument a group of racist cunts beat the crap out of someone they will likely go to jail the end[/QUOTE] There's a big argument because this is sh and its what people do. Has anyone stopped to consider that maybe this lady was, in fact, a whore?

nothing wrong with being a whore or a cracker though
[QUOTE=Lachz0r;42592390]nothing wrong with being a whore or a cracker though[/QUOTE]You clearly haven't had to deal with the saltine menace that's harassing Americans across the nation.
Yeah I paid a cracker slut $50 for a bj once it was the driest shit ever.
[QUOTE=SatansSin;42591640]This is why if I lived in the US, I'd get my Concealed Carry in a heartbeat.[/QUOTE] Hate to be late with this but people said the same thing about SUV biker case. CC permit would not have helped as they are illegal in NYC. I have a New York CC permit and it says right on it "NOT VALID IN NEW YORK CITY".
[QUOTE=Rocko's;42591594]Not really major, since it's coming from a local news source. Stuff like this is usually reported since it's crime and stuff, which is what local news look for.[/QUOTE] im asking why its posted hear as if this is relevant to the entire world
because tragedy thrills me
They should've maced the little shits. Surprised they didn't carry any pepper spray while in Brooklyn.
[QUOTE=valkery;42591382]Oh man. My muffins got toastier than jews in an oven. No! It's okay, I can say that! I'm not racist! I have an oven.[/QUOTE] I'm sorry there's this little voice in my head that screams in agony that (even though you're joking) you said jewish people are its own race and disliking jews makes you a racist no it's anti-semitism, hatred against a people sure, but not a race as they are not a race they are a religion ok thanks bye :suicide:
Talk about staying true to stereotypical images..
Can we get Al Sharpton to make a comment on this case? Maybe Jesse Jackson? *cricket chirp*
I swear there was a thread somewhere where several people, a mod included, were absolutely [I]adamant[/I] that racism doesn't exist against white people at all and it was simply an attempt by white people to paint themselves as victims to further discriminate against black people.
Just because Old Man Higglesworth calls you a nigger doesn't mean you should gang up on some random couple and beat them up. You should probably be beating up the old man's ass instead or using witty words or something.
More propaganda to make white people afraid.
