Why are you singling her out. I see people, including myself do this all the time here on CD. I actually didn't even know there was a rule for it.
But I appreciate your link. I'm going to try to follow this rule.

Conversation about WUTWUT????????

Speak until they are blue in the face.......the fact will still remain. Whites and Blacks, IN GENERAL, dislike and distrust each other.

"Its a mirror image into the minds of some people and its not very flattering"

Maybe not flattering but generated by outside influences....and actions like those of these 3 black thugs only serves to reinforce such attitudes.
Are violent street crimes more serious than violent crimes in the burbs or in rural areas?

Sorry but whites are the most violent group in America, always have and always will be.

This reminds me of a coworker in rural Kentucky that was soooo scared of the big city crime she heard about while living next to violent meth heads.

The news does a number on white America. You would almost believe crime isnt down all over America if you didnt dig for information

The deterioration of the black underclass did not start on January 20, 2009. B. Hussein Obama didn't make things much better, though.
The underclass whites need to stop making babies in high school, too. They need to finish their education, too. Less and less people (of all races) get married these days... You wanna' know why? Because of the "free sex movement" and religion abandonment. Now, everyone is entitled to their own opinion but this is why America is turning for the worst. America is turning into the UK.

Instead of shaming people for having sex outside of wedlock like we used to, we embrace it. Only 1/3 of single moms receive child support. If a single mom is working all day (most do) and since women make less than men, then she can't stay home and someone else is forced to raise the child (grandparents, daycare, etc.). The vicious cycle continues for generations.

You just cannot chalk these actions to "slavery" anymore. How do you gain respect from others when your own people cannot respect others?
Those who have developed a hatred for Obama will blame him for anything. If their car breaks down, it's Obama's fault. If a tornado comes through their town, it's Obama fault. If their home gets broken into, it's Obama fault.

The white community needs to do some self reflection about the state of its own culture before it rages against those who scream racial discrimination.

And will always blame slavery because that's where it started. Racists whites still long among society, and until they stop (or die) I won't stop calling them out for their behavior. I've only had one person actually say something racist to my face, everything else is nonverbal.

And also, there is more than one definition that classifies someone as a racist. It's not just "when one race believes that it's inferior or superior to another race(s)".

And does anyone NOT think this is racially motivated? Unfortunately, don't expect a very politicized DOJ to pursue a hate crimes investigation for obvious reasons.

I'm getting a little sick of seeing all these threads that revolve around race. Its a mirror image into the minds of some people and its not very flattering.
Well, the notion that black people are under attack by whites s probably the biggest lie being told by those who hold the megaphone in American society. It's understandable that folks want set the record straight, at least in the tiny corners of the internet where they have a voice.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot? This is just an internet message board, not a freaking master's dissertation or an essay being turned in for peer review to a committee of P-h-frickin-d's.

I have a black family 15 yards from my house, and a Muslim family from India as my next door neighbors. Doesn't get more diverse than that.
