Sure. But none of them are as bad as "racial" collectivism.

Anyway, to the OP. what is the point of this thread? Another poorly veiled jab at the Trayvon Martin case? I thought all this sh*t was merged in to the Sticky thread.

I'm not sure if you noticed or not, but what he/she is using is a Red Herring logical fallacy to distract readers from the disgusting criminality presented in this video. The logic goes like this: a video is shown of a "youth" with a gun stealing a moped from a White male, shooting him in the leg". In order to neutralize the ill will that such a video can generate, it is best to throw Ad Hominem attacks out there, and accuse people of "White Pride". It's a tool the Marxists use to stifle debate.

So the "National Association For The Advancement of Colored People" and "The Race" aren't forms of racial collectivism?

LOL are you living in the twilight zone or reality? Where did the OP mention race? Or did you just make that up to suit your victim mentality and reinforce your exoneration of rampant crime amongst Black "youth"?

Well .. just about any story about a 'Black person', wearing a hoodie (a gray one at that) and committing a crime would fall into the same category I'd say
(Now, If it had been a red hoodie or even a chartreuse colored hoodie .. THAT would make a difference)

There is no logical fallacy going on here. The video shows a black guy miserably failing at stealing a moped. He was clearly inexperienced in this or just stupider than normal criminals. The problem with this post is that the OP used this video as a jab at the Trayvon Martin case by trying to attribute an armed black assailant to an unarmed 17 year old not committing any acts of crime. I guess because both of them had hoodies on.

Took long enough to figure it all out .. Thanks!
Just a thought .. I have run across more and more stories on 'gray hoodies' and crime lately.

Why would that be?

I was refering to the communism, socialism and the united nations. I should have elaborated more in the post. La raza and the black panthers are just as bad as any white nationalism group. I don't see the naacp as a true form of racial collectivism because it is an inclusive group for all and not exclusive like black nationalist or white nationalist groups.
