How are blacks treated in the UK?

[Trainer Monkey]

Also, to the original point of the thread[/b], there's never been a time in history when a conquered people (slaves), were freed because of the conscience of their captors, and then (this part is the exception; the slaves did not lead the revolt as in previous slave wars), the captors go to war with each other over their emancipation and consequently over 618,000 die. So I give kudos to the people of that century for having the presence of mind to end a brutal human practice, but I also fault the modern day blacks who whine and complain about mistreatment

I'm sorry to be gruesome here, but some people need to have the blindfold stripped from their eyes...

The word "whining" used in this context is just as irresponsible as saying racism in America is "over". The fact we have a black president doesn't change as much as you think. Sure it's not every white person and neither would I imply as such, just like I can't dispute that some black people aren't whiners. But those people are no different than their white counterparts who also grab onto anything to complain about, proclaiming the world is somehow against them. To apply such an unqualified generalization about black people, cemented by the citing of our 44th president's ethnicity is deeply offensive. But I suppose you may sweep me into the pile of those "whiners".

What metaphorical "blindfold" are you talking about? The one you're wearing? Show me all the pictures of brutality you want, as I said before, humans treat other humans like shit when they cease to assign any humanity to them, the heinous treatment of black people is no different than the heinous treatment of blacks to whites or Mexicans to El Salvadorans or whatever example of any demographic against another.
Within in the last month or so, locally, there was a white lady who was raped and beaten to death in her home and all the guy took was her purse. So, seemingly he raped and beat her to death just for her purse. Now how is that example of cruelty and brutality any different than any other on the planet? It's not. I'll agree with you and say that children are a special category, but any example of cruelty or brutality stemming from someone's social class, race, or religious/sexual preference is all universally the same thing.

I realize this is an emotional issue, and perhaps it's emotion that keeps you from accurately reading what I've written...

"but I also fault the modern day blacks who whine and complain about mistreatment and all the while are squandering the greatest opportunity in history--we have a black president after all."

this isn't a generalization, this is very specific. "I also fault the modern day blacks who whine and complain about mistreatment AND all the while are squandering the greatest opportunity in history--we have a black president after all."

I honestly can't see what you're missing here so I'll break it down for you:

i'm saying that I find fault with black people in today's society that cite mistreatment as the reason they can't be successful, and use the President-elect as an example that black people can attain anything they want in America, that's it's not a problem of opportunity.

Not to be redundant, but just so we're clear, I'm exclusively talking about only the aforementioned black people, not all black people. Once again, if you had bothered to read the other posts, I mentioned that my last four bosses were black, and they're definitely successful people, and the funny thing is, most of what I have to say comes from them.

In the future, please read everything carefully before you find anything "deeply offensive" and allow your emotions to get the better of you, and allow you to read things that just aren't there.

So I look at your photo's and video's above and I see terrible, unforgivable things that are universal, unique to no one, and are as old as time.

See here's where we run in to a problem
There isnt an official "Get Whitey League"
But there is a Klan
And an Aryan Nations
And A Christian Posse Comitatus

LOL- the CPC, are they still around? Just in prisons?

Based on the per ca pita black on white crime vs. white on black crime, you tell me who is being murderous to whom...

and after this, what possible credibility could the white supremacists have:

David Duke, the rapper

And uh, the Media would be the largest "Get Whitey League" out there.

The NBPP, Black liberation theology, and the Trinity United Church of
Christ's adopted Black Value System is just as bad as any current version of those groups. All inherently racist, although I do agree with the Black Value System, it's just that if you changed the word "black" to "white" you'd have something similar to mission statements of all the white groups.

You'd be suprised how much gas the CPC still has in its tank,they have little hell whole all over central PA
And how could the media be the biggest "get whitey league" they made stars out of talentless hacks like Lindsay Lohan,and Keanu Reeves. Unless getting whitey involves putting them up in mansions and making them filthy rich

Keanu- horrible. Just horrible. Did you know they're actually making a Point Break 2?

But here's where we're going to split hairs over the entertainment industry versus the news media; I would argue that it was the former not the later that makes "stars" out of completely meaningless people, but it's news media that demonizes people. My direct point about the media was that they lead the charge for blaming white America for the nation's problems, especially the problems of minorities and special interest groups.

But that's a completely different thread.

See,you really cant seperate the two, the same AP news wire that let me know repeatedly about Jesse Jacksons illegitimate child,is the exact same news wire thats going to beat me over the head over and over with Paris Hilton's latest exploits.
Its all on the AP wire.
And I concur Keannu Reeves is the worst actor who has ever gotten to become a star,ever. Not only can he not act his way out of a brown paper bag,if you cast him as the brown paper bag,he wouldnt be believable in the role

I dunno about that. He was pretty convincing as Ted.

Thats part of the problem
I dont think he was acting when he starred in Bill And Ted, I think he was just reading the lines
He's ruined more potentially good films, then the rating system
