I mean it's pretty clear that white and black people just cannot f*cking get along, so when does the fighting start? When do we get to expose to the world how messed up our race relations are? I just wanna get this overwith.

What's funny too is that if white people took a minute to sit down and listen to the black community and actually take them at their damn word like one human being should do to another they wouldn't be so pissed off and we wouldn't have people going nuts.

What's also funny is if looters stopped f*cking it up for the peaceful protesters and actually were condemned for their actions then maybe BLM would look like less of a sham to so many people.

All it takes is a serious, rational conversation between black and white communities in every city, county, and state. That's it. But nobody will talk.

This is easy enough to solve, but y'all wanna do it the hard way, so let's get started already. This is some bullsh*t.

Every great empire ends because of infighting. Looks like it's our turn now.

13% of the entire population in the USA, will be overwhelmed quickly, if they want to make it a race war.

a very small % within only 13% of the population causes 69% of all violent crimes in the USA.
If it is racist for white people to fix it, then I highly suggest you fix it and fix it quick within your race.
Because once white people have had enough, they will solve the problem and it will not be pretty.

Most people are sensible enough not to engage this foolery.
Agreed and one that would cost everyone. Let's not fan the flames.

One need only read a few threads to see an appalling lack of understanding/sympathy on display. One of the many reasons I am not voting for Trump.

I will mention a story -what happened to me on a film set over a decade ago. I was having lunch with an older black woman and her friend...out of the blue came a shocking statement. She looked me in the face with sheer hatred and said..."MY grandchildren will become your worst nightmare" - Why would this black grandmother do such a disservice to her own grandchildren and instill crippling hatred in them?

It seems that behind the scenes in some black families racism and hatred are encouraged and quietly institutionalized... HATE- weakens a human being....DO NOT teach your children to hate...you ruin them for life.

No, it will never happen.

What has increased and changed is visibility. We've got enough people with smart phones taking videos that we see stuff happening all the time. It was happening before, too, but it wasn't making it into viral videos.

In real life, nobody really talks about "race", at least, not in public. Things have always been the same, media just loves to talk about 'race' and 'police brutality' because it is now election season.

I don't believe any race war is coming. I think the violence, protests, and riots will be reaching its peak soon. Everyone is getting sick of this happening. It's very evident in the black community, that they are getting sick of this. We've seen black people making lines in front of police officers to protect them too. The problem is, the good people are not going to be at these riots, they are at home watching the YouTube videos or tv, wondering what is wrong with these rioters.

These rioters aren't part of the black community, or any community, they shun society and then don't understand why they are not accepted.

I think race relations are better than they've ever been in history. The culture of consumerism, money, business, and capitalism has brought so many people together. America is truly a mono-culture.


A lot of people on these forums live in insular bubbles, where they only interact with their own race, and their entire narrative about race is based on the media.


For many many years I was a competitive gamer. I use to travel around the country and attend tournaments. There were people from so many different races, cultures, and backgrounds together just to compete in games. There would be gaming crews that were super racially diverse. The crew I use to train with had 2 hispanic guys, a white guy, 3 black guys, and 2 Asians. Still keep in contact with them.


when I go to conferences for my career, I see many people of various races talking about technology, their work environment, and challenges in providing solutions. No one ever thinks racially.


Among a certain income bracket, people really don't think racially. People just interact based on common interest, and most people don't immediately think they have things in common just because of race.

With that said, the race war talk is mostly from fringe white and black nationalist group. I call them "racialist", as they have a very "race first" mentality. And they feel worldview is centered around race, when it's not.

Blame the warm hearted half baked liberal progressives who subsidized ghettos - who insisted that black woman do not need husbands or fathers...who bribed black mothers with welfare checks....who insisted that they would not get a check of the father lived in the home...thank feminist eccentric do -gooders who started this crap back in the mid 70s...NOW you have the results of these warm and fuzzy policies - Funny- the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
