OK, prove who made the posts.

And their race.

“…..everybody’s doing it! “ It’s the typical response of the perverted attempting to “normalize” their perversions. I have noticed a pattern. When whites are put on notice for the bad behavior of whites, whites always try to equalize or normalize it. “Hey…everybody’s doing it…..every group is racist.” Yet, they never attempt to normalize their work ethic, their intelligence, their personal responsibility and such. In other words, talk about things that whites do wrong and whites will be quick to point out that blacks are equally as wrong. However, you will not hear whites chiming in to equalize the work ethic, personal responsibility and intelligence of black people relative to white people. That is because, for the thousandth time, they believe in their superiority and the calculation, mental, has to always conclude that.

@ the OP. That is a keen grasp of the obvious.

Or when they say .. "If the cop was black, and the guy on the ground was white..it wouldn't receive this much attention.." wtf?

I'm with you on this one. I don't think any black person would anonymously bash their own race - especially with the word "coon." That word is utterly disgusting and backwoods. A white redneck wrote that for sure.

Just as calling someone a white redneck is disgusting, backwoods and racist.

Violent protests after Calif train killing verdict - Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100709/ap_on_re_us/us_train_station_shooting#mwpphu-container - broken link)
The articles describe riots after a police officer got off on a lesser charge after shooting an unarmed man lying face-down on the ground. Just so there's no confusion, I absolutely condemn the riots, no matter how justifiable the anger, but what really caught my eye was the comments section. Here's a sampling.















Most disturbingly, the majority of these comments got a "thumbs up" rating (also, note that I only went through comments in the past hour; there are over 5,000 more comments I didn't even read).

The intent of this post is not to accuse any individual or group of racism, but to make it abundantly clear that racism does exist, and it's more common than a lot of people would like to believe. The riots were inexcusable and worthy of outrage, but the comments I read weren't just condemnation or anger over property destruction, they reflected racial hatred and general aggression towards blacks. When I see things like this, it makes me very upset to think of all the excuses a lot of people come up with to cover up this sort of racism. I hope that this will wake some people up to reality, but chances are some sort of excuse will be made for the racist comments. I'm just being politically correct. I'm playing the race card. Those aren't real racists, they're just liberal plants. That sort of thing sickens me.
I see nothing wrong with some of those posts you are quoting. What is so racist about claiming the truth about what has happened in South Africa,Rhodesia and Detroit? I didn't read them all but I saw 2 or 3 I do agree with.

I don't think calling someone a redneck makes me backwoods... Here, in OK, rednecks are praised. It's weird and gross. Thank God I live in a big city rather than some small town where people shoot squirrels and eat them for fun. I grew up in a town like that, and haven't been back since HS.
