How about The First 48. Ever watch that show? I suppose all of those black detectives are racists too?

Yep, I've watched it. And make no mistake, the detective being black doesn't change much. They have to fit in. Ever wonder why some women didn't want to vote? Or why some slaves wanted to stay slaves? There's a psychology to this.

You can't be serious. Those are dedicated, good and thorough detectives. Now you are saying that these black detectives are victims too? OMG, I think this seriously could be a mental illness.

How sad. This doesn't even make sense and in no way addresses the question that was posed.

It does. Whites know they are in fact equal and entitled. They largely do not fear the police, even when stopped. I'll never forget my brother stopped with pot in the front seat. He chewed the cop out. The cop called me at home, asking me to come and get him so he didn't have to arrest him. Black teens know that would never work for them.

Nope, if you're not going to be rational, then I'll let someone else waste their time on you.

Again, this is a recognized condition, and in no way suggests they are not good, dedicated, nor thorough. Also, try to remember TV doesn't show you everything.

You have a bad habit if leaving an argument you don't like. You name call and run. Try instead to see the point.

No. The attitude is different all too often. Teens, white teens, often feel free to talk back, be indignant, and maybe threaten to call mom and Dad. Black teens know better. And for good reason.

that's horsecrap. in Cincinnati, there was a discussion why blacks at a big Public HS were disciplined at rates far higher than whites. the economic strata of both groups was approximately the same. So a state senator who lived in that school district examined the facts. He attended a graduation ceremony and noted that the principal of the school requested that families of the graduates refrain from noisy celebrations until all the graduates had received their diplomas. he noted that black families constantly violated that request while white families did not. He concluded that the much higher rates of black discipline was caused by the family environments they came from where authority was disrespected.

Here is a report on this from a far left publication

I understand you have no background in law enforcement or the legal field. Ask any juvenile division prosecutor and they will say the same thing

Try making a rational point and then maybe someone will pay attention to you. Your arguments here are feeble at best.

That is such BS. You are suggesting that these detectives who are some of the best in their field are brainwashed and acting under direction of "whitey." :lamo Sorry, it is just so incredibly hysterical that I have to laugh. I wonder what THEY would have to say about you and your little opinions.

Based in that? And you accept that? :lamo:lamo:lamo

The way to approach the compliant is to look at actual student behavior at school. You're too willing to accept silliness.


BTW, You reminded me of this:


In Cincinnati between February 1995 and April 2001, fifteen black males under the age of 40 were killed by police or died in custody.[2] Of the fifteen, three (including Thomas) did not possess or employ any weapons against police during the confrontations. During these confrontations four police officers were killed or wounded. No police were ever found guilty through any civil or criminal trials as a result of these incidents, and in only one case were the police officers involved reprimanded and given extra training (officers Michael Miller III and Brent McCurley, in the case of the death of Michael Carpenter). Michael Carpenter had attempted to drive away while a police officer reached into his car to take his car keys during an arrest.[3]
Those deaths, although often cited as the most dramatic aspect of the situation, were not the only factor. A local independent magazine, City Beat, published research that an "analysis of 141,000 traffic citations written by Cincinnati Police in a 22-month period found black drivers twice as likely as whites to be cited for driving without a license, twice as likely to be cited for not wearing a seat belt and four times as likely to be cited for driving without proof of insurance." [4] The NAACP argued that such statistics were the result of police targeting "driving while black," rather than differences in offending between-groups.[5]

LOL, why are you attempting to lecture me on stuff I know inside and out. I reviewed the Timothy Thomas shooting as an attorney and an expert on police shootings. Officer Roach was told that Thomas had 14 warrants-he was not told they were minor league ones. Thomas ran from the cops into the worst neighborhood in the country in terms of violence at that time. His pants were coming down (another cultural contribution of urban black youths, the migrating southward crotch syndrome) and when Roach cornered him he was basically naked and grabbed for his shorts. In the early morning poor light Roach thought he was going for a weapon and center punched the loser

BTW after this blacks rioted. the cops stopped aggressively patrolling high crime black areas. in teh next couple years there were, IIRC 101 murders-all involved blacks killing other blacks.

It is rational and there are studies to support it.

You do know you skipped right over the point.:lamo
 
I don't doubt there is racism both ways but I believe that most of the black to white racism is more about the past and how in the past the black race was mistreated, there is a mistrust there I believe and therefore blacks associate whites with that. On the other hand I feel like white racism is more hatred based or still the feeling that blacks are in some way inferior.

It is not rational. You claiming that somehow those detectives are being brainwashed into arresting criminals, when it shows the case from beginning to end, is so incredibly foolish. It is nothing but laughable.

I know what the truth is--cincinnati is 43% black and 85% of the violent crime is committed by blacks. might be more but some crimes aren't solved often because blacks often refuse to cooperate with the police-indeed we'd see DON'T BE A SNITCH t-shirts handed out by a prominent black attorney who ultimately went to prison for drug law violations.

why is it that 6% of the population commits over half the murders in the USA? must be police racism? I couldn't give a rats ass as to the NAACP's conclusions as to why blacks get more tickets. I do know that if you spend a lot of your time as a teenager or young adult in prison or detention you aren't going to be as good a driver as people who aren't in jail.

Brainwashed? No more than most if us. Conditioned would be more accurate. Try to put aside what you think you know and listen. Some slaves did believe that whites were superior and that God made them inferior. They didn't see freedom as a good thing. How do you think they got there? Some women believed they were inferior to men, and held other women to a high standard because of it. They fought against women's rights because they felt women weren't worthy. How did that happen? These happened. Just as a rape victim thought it was her fault. We get subtle messages and it becomes part if us.

We don't have slaves anymore and haven't for more than 100 years.

I get it, you don't know what I'm saying. No, that's not what I'm saying. I moved to another point bouncing off those detectives to police as a whole, regardless of race. And no, it shows select moments of the case. You have no idea what you don't see.

Well, if you're only arresting half the population, that might tell us something. But you tell me. Why?

oh so that is what it is. whites who commit murder aren't arrested but blacks are

do you know that the people most likely to be killed by blacks are blacks, whites by whites

so you are saying cops don't care about white victims but are gung ho in avenging black murder victims

OK that makes sense I suppose
