There is already collective guilt. Blacks are already seen as criminal and unintelligent. I believe that we are seen as, collectively, inferior. That, however, is RACISM. Why? The reason being is that its not based upon history of something that happened, but rather, an ideology of a racial hierarchy. You started off as seeing blacks as "savages, primitive,etc".....the modern view of that is "criminals, unintelligent, etc". Keep in mind self fulfilling prophecy. If you treat people like they are savages and dumb......you can produce that as a reaction.

Now you don't want to go down that collective guilt road, do you?
We already LIVE on that road. The address is 4545 Collective Guilt Drive, Anytown USA.

If you are, prepare to receive just as much collective guilt coming back towards you (ALL blacks are trouble or criminal or unintelligent)....and the divisiveness just continues to grow...
Be prepared.....I am already acclimated to that....lol. However, this "ALL" business is of your own making. I have NEVER made a statement about ALL of any group. I make general statements about a group and then you turn it into a paraphrasing that I said "ALL". That is because you know the general statement is true....but you have this negative energy created in you from said truth. If TRUTH creates negative energy as a reaction in you....then that would mean that you are on the wrong side. Thus, to keep from facing moral injury of being uncomfortable with truth, you play head games with yourself to convince yourself that I am talking about ALL whites are guilty, witch is obviously an UNTRUTH and hence you justify your negative energy as being a reaction to the UNTRUTH of ALL whites being guilty. The problem is, however, I NEVER SAID ALL WHITES!!!!

My MN side of my family...I don't know if my grandpa ever even saw a person of color in his life. My father, in a HS of 2000 kids, said there were only 5 of blacks here in the Twin Cities. This was the late '60s. And he said he got along with them fine or that they caused no trouble. What I'm saying to you is, my Swedish side of the family have next to no experience (good or bad) prior to a generation or two ago. They had nothing to do with slavery or keeping anyone down. And you want me to feel guilty about some cr-- that happened in the Deep South just because I am white. I don't think so.
Last I checked....YOU ARE NOT MINNESOTA. You are YOU. Therefore, don't tell me about you like that proves something about Minnesota. That is the fallacy of composition. The blacks and whites involved in these mob video attacks could all (or their parents) be originally from other states.....while you are fixated on Minnesota because that is where the attack happened.
