Denilson200 is one of the biggest idiots around here. Not liking a human solely for their color or look is a sickness that denilson200 displays far too often.
Black people 'three times more likely' to be Tasered
The numbers show the electric stun gun was drawn, aimed or fired 38,000 times in England and Wales over five years.
In more than 12% of cases Tasers were used against black people, who make up about 4% of the population.
Officers were accountable to the law each time their weapon was drawn, the National Police Chiefs Council said.
The figures, covering the years 2010 to 2015, were compiled by the Home Office from all 43 police forces in England and Wales following a Freedom of Information Act request to the Home Office.

Look, no doubt some whites are assholes with racial Shit. Denilson200 probably never took the time to look this up but the largest mass lynching in the US was perpetrated by whites against Chinese immigrants in the 1800's. So there are many evil whites who commit atrocities but when do we grow brains and end this nonsense. It starts in our minds, continue using the hate is pointless.
I just did give you specific examples of racism.
All white people benefit from racism.
Why ? Because you can't have a down without an up. If someone is getting the door slammed in there face, then others must be getting a pass. anyone who argues that white privilege does not exist must also argue that racism does not exist.
These benefits for whites can be
Material (such as greater opportunity in the labour market, or greater net worth, due to a history in which whites had the ability to accumulate wealth to a greater extent than persons of color)
Social (such as presumptions of competence, creditworthiness, law-abidingness, intelligence, etc.)
Psychological (such as not having to worry about triggering negative stereotypes, rarely having to feel out of place, not having to worry about racial profiling.)
If blk people are the targets of discrimination, in housing, employment, the justice system, or elsewhere, then whites, by definition, are being elevated above those persons of color.
The fact that white privilege exists and that all whites have access to various aspects of it, does not, however, mean that all whites are wealthy, or that in competitions for jobs and other opportunities, whites will always win.
But on balance, whites have a head start
What a tedious life you must lead.
[QUOTE=denilson200;1354974][QUOTE=El Kabong;1354814]I agree with @denilson200 here. I cannot imagine how blacks suffered over 400 years of being kidnapped, separated from their wives and children, sold like pieces of meat, forced to work for free, whipped, hanged, raped, murdered, stripped of their largely Muslim identity (they were all from West Africa which is largely Muslim---Guinea, Mali, Cote d'Ivoire, Yamassoukrou, Ouagadougou, Senegal, Gambia, etc.... all largely Muslim peoples), and forced to become the Southern Black Baptist and to accept Jesus by white slave owners, forbidden to learn to read or write UNDER PENALTY OF DEATH.
I cannot imagine the lasting effects of this shit. 400 years is a long fucking time to live under these inhuman, destructive conditions. It does not just conveniently "go away" just because Kennedy/Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act in 1964. That was only 1 generation ago, and people thins blacks should just "get over it" in a blink of an eye.
My people came to America in 1915 and 1923. My grandfather told me how mean the Irish and other white shop owners were to us Italian peasants who just arrived. He couldnt get a job for years, whites would openly call him "grease ball" and "monkey" and "wop/dego/goombah" etc.... He told me one time how he went for a ditch-digging job in 1933 in New York, and the german-American guy in charge of hiring said to him "We'll put you kinky-haired greaseball to work with your nigger cousins digging ditches". He said the only jobs he and my great uncle could ever find were alongside black Americans digging ditches for huge pipelines. He said there would be 150 diggers on a team, and it would be 120 Backs and 30 Italians side by side. Blacks and Italians were very close back then
MY POINT ABOUT THAT: THE TINY LITTLE BIT THAT MY PEOPLE SUFFERED WHEN THEY GOT HERE IN 1923 WAS BAD ENOUGH, DISGUSTING ENOUGH, ETC... SO THEREFORE NOBODY CAN IMAGINE what black people were subjected to for 400 years. We can read about it, we can watch Alex Hailey's "Roots" all we like, but it can never tell us firsthand just what kind of personal/spiritual/permanent damage that shit did to them as a whole, and we can never put a timeline on it and say "OK, its 2015 so just forget it all and get over it."
Should the Jews "get over" what the Nazis did to them? I think not. "Get over" a girl, OK, or "get over" a job-loss, OK, but GET OVER A GENOCIDE I THINK FUCKING NOT.
I THINK NOT.
and Denilson you go ahead and keep thinking Im (or people whio you dont even know) racist. I dont need to prove anything to you bro.
If you knew me, you would feel ashamed to call me that. But you dont know me.
If you say so
You're not white, you can never be white, but you know 100% that every last damn white person there is "benefits from racism"....Certainly you wouldn't allow me to make such a broad sweeping statement about black people seeing how I'm not black and I don't live or experience firsthand the everyday lives of black people....but of course you're right you know, you're black, you cannot be told that you are wrong, least of all by me....because what do I know?
Material - Having a job is a help, lots of young blacks don't have jobs, but then again I can't venture to guess why they wouldn't because such a guess would be racist of course. Learning or being taught to save money is a help, I was taught by my Mom & Dad to save...2 parent household, so obviously there's another white privilege so I can't tell you to learn to save or try to teach you because it would be racist to attempt to intervene in the life of a black man in that manner.
Social - it's....against....the.....law......to....do...... that
Psychological - Offense is never given it is taken....so you "being triggered"....that's a YOU problem, not a ME problem. It's very easy to decide to be a victim......and that's why being a victim isn't something to be celebrated.
What do you owe "whites' head start" to? Slavery? The Tribal nature of Africa before colonization? I am actually curious to get the answer to that question.
"If your great great great great great great great great great great great great great grandparents all the way up to YOUR generation had earned ZERO WAGES and ZERO EDUCATION, wouldnt that give your oppressors a head start?"
Mehhhhh, yeah just maybe a COUPLE OF HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS OF A HEAD START.
