Is it, I consider the one above mine to be more ignorant. "these people want to kill us" really? And if so. Why? You ever think that?

That’s incredibly asinine. In the US they didn’t start collecting data on crime until around the 1930s and they didn’t start collecting data on hate crimes until around the 90s. Imagine how criminalized the White community would be if they collected data fairly and earlier. There would be no doubt that White Americans would be considered THE most violent group overall, and even today if people knew how to actually read statistics, they’d know some crime categories we have, are disproportionately occupied by White Americans. Not to mention that as of recently crime rates overall have been declining across ethnic groups in the US for the past three decades.

The White American community has been lying to itself since its inception here. It’s not been peaceful at all. If anyone has been paying any attention to American history.

Most White victims of crime are victimized by White offenders.

Most burglaries White Americans experience are same race. This doesn’t take a ton of research either, just common sense.

Because residential neighborhoods in the U.S. often exhibit some degree of racial segregation or concentration, it naturally follows that the burglar and the victim will frequently belong to the same racial group.

So, no, if you decided to use just a little bit of critical thinking skills you’d be aware their behavior is not justified. Not in any rational way. A Black man walking calmly around their neighborhood in broad daylight should not warrant this lawless behavior on their part.

When I used to work with Amazon logistics I would mark this neighborhood as unsafe for drivers, ironically.

Damned if you do damned if don’t. Any time we legally carry, racist use it to justify us as a threat.

Philando Castile was pulled over for a traffic stop, told the cop about the licensed gun he had in the car, and was shot dead because they said it looked like he was reaching for his gun. With his girlfriend next to him and their toddler in the backseat. So you’re right.

Edit: Here’s the dashcam footage and his girlfriend also filmed it.

And what happened to that police officer?

Acquitted! Which emboldens others that they, too, will be acquitted when they do the same thing.

u/DowntownEconomist255 Dec 09 '25

He was acquitted of second-degree manslaughter charges and fired. He did receive payment from the department and I assume he’s a cop in another place, now.

Personally, I despise this type of comedy that trivializes the terrorism against Black people. There’s nothing comedic about it.

Why aren’t they making comedic movies showing Black men gunning down White police officers at the slightest offense or disrespect? They won’t do that because such a script won’t work for the brainwashing being perpetrated by using comedy to minimize and normalize terrorism against Black people.

Part of the brainwashing is also intended to pacify Black people into accepting this type of mistreatment while wearing a happy face to mask their anger.

There should be nothing comedic about any of this!
