Guest Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 I'm a white male, but I have a half-African little brother. I know exactly the stereotypes placed on people of colour and how detrimental they are. It's people with your attitudes that perpetuate the stereotypes that make it so dangerous to be of colour. It's has nothing to do at all with the race card or people of colour choosing to assimilate. Educate yourself because your ignorance is embarrassing. I'm not ignorant nor racist, I just choose to hold everyone to the same standard and treat everyone the same and it's about time Americans stop being so obsessed with race and do the same... America and their race problem is a huge mess, luckily things aren't as bad in my country Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

UDO 35 Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 this is completely fuked up and I feel horrible if this is true but why do we have to do this shlt on gagadaily!! im really drunk right now and I should not be typing this but I think this shlt creates nothing but problems here. this stuff has been going on forever but just now the media decides this stuff is the big story. between this stuff and all the other crap on gagadaily is why people fight on here and its just constantly a huge fuking mess. I understand and respect the right to post this stuff but I just wish it wouldn't be on this particular website. this stuff and everything else horrible you can think of has been going on in the world forever. I just don't want to see it and be reminded when I come on here. I understand that people are shocked by this stuff because they havnt had much experance with the world yet but this is gagadaily. this place shouldn't be about posting all this bullshlt that none of us can do anything about besides argue on here and make it miserable for some of the members. this racial shlt is making this website unbareable. I admit I don't know anything besides what im typing but the last thing I heard about Trayvon martin is that he had that guy pinned to the ground and he was on top of him beating the shlt out of him mma style. if he was not going to stop and I was fearing for my life I would have shot him too. and in the furguson situation i don't know that much but i heard something about him running at the cop and making contact with him and fighting with the cop and struggling to get the cops gun. then i heard something like the the guy that got shot was away from the cop not posing any threat when he got shot so i don't know anything about that but it did get taken to court and the cop was found innocent. i know courts get things wrong all the time but its not about being racist all the time either. if this particular post is true that's completely messed up, the cop shooting him just because he wouldn't get on the ground or whatever. America is going to be completely racist,against cops and ****ed up and its all the medias fault. this stuff has been going on forever but none of us have known about it. but now the media decides this is all theyre going to talk about because its where the money is. its where the interest is. there are just as much black racists as there are white racists. theres people that don't like anybody no matter what color they are. the world is fuked up in every way and i already know about it so im sick of hearing this shlt when i come on gagadaily. this site is going to be just as bad as the outside world soon. i want love and peace. especially on gagadaily. i love you all and im drunk so i just wanted to go on this rant because im sick of it. edit: there is more information about this now and there is video of him pointing a gun at the cop. I wish nobody would ever get killed but the cop had a very good reason to shoot him. the media needs to calm down with these news stories and the people rioting need to stop. once again there was rioters. I don't understand why people are always rioting, they destroy things and hurt people. the rioters just cause complete chaos. the media and people always rioting are the real problems. something needs to change.

Morphine Prince 109,683 Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 Don't believe this, for starters it's not even Christmas Eve yet in the US, that's tonight and the article says it happened then Also, I can't at the african-americans playing the victim here, I guess they haven't figured out they are the ones who keep racism alive by constantly drawing attention to their colour, history and the fact they are still different... Maybe if they'd start to see themselves as equal things would get better... It's not like the kid was shot cuz he's black, he probably did something that warranted it, if this had been a white kid it wouldn't blow up in the media and his skin colour wouldn't matter,, it's them that make this all about race So much ignorance in one post.

Navy 495 Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 They need to get gun control on these damn police officers. Is it that hard not to use your stick, taser, or pepper spray on someone. Why do these idiots keep resulting to the use of guns? Yes this kid may have been guilty in a robbery, BUT how does they make it okay to shoot him and take away his life. These cops are taking away lives left and right, now this mother and the rest of this boys family will have a miserable Christmas without him. At first I wanted to deny this was about racism (pardon my ignorance and delusion) and that protesting wasn't necessary, but clearly it is. Another ****ing kid gets shot? Regardless if the teen was crime involved, dropped out of school, and all that you still can't take someone's life. While there's thousands of people out there guilty of murder, child rape and s-xual assault, and exc. these black kids are getting shot for little crimes when they should just be arrested and receive a fair punishment for them. Taking a life for a robbery and not obeying a police officers actions is not a fair punishment. **** these police and **** our justice system that will allow them not to be punished.

America and their race problem is a huge mess, luckily things aren't as bad in my country So in other words a "colorblind" society in which we ignore problems due to race and hope it magically goes away. So much ignorance in one post. IKR? I was under the impression that groups like white supremacists, who actually believe the white race to be superior, also "keep racism alive" but I guess it's Black complainers who pull out their trusty race card I always wonder if people telling Black people to shut up about racism are also flooding KKK inboxes??

SychosSoChic 9,995 Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 If the teen was pointing a gun at the officer then I understand. Either way, at this rate people in America, especially minorities, probably aren't going to trust the police to do their job. There needs to be some serious PR work and assurance to the public that these kind of issues are being addressed Life ain't Hollywood for any one of us.

Kayla 7,595 Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 How is anyone, on either side of this debate, making assumptions so early on? Let people do their job, let them investigate, we will see the video sooner or later. Jeez. This. And now that we have video and more information, we find out that the 18 year old pulled a gun on the cop. He was in the wrong, it's on video. It'd be better if he didn't have to die, but if someone pulls a gun on another person you can't claim race is the reason they were shot. I'm actually ashamed that people defending Eric Garner are also defending Martin. We can't point fingers at police who use violence and excuse citizens who do the same. I agree there is a problem with racism and we live in a society where black people have a great disadvantage, but that doesn't mean every instance where a black person gets hurt by the police is one where it's the police's fault.
