I didn't watch the video, but if the driver sped off to avoid the cops, then it'd turn into a police chase and that is another degree of dangerous for a large number of people, as opposed to just those few in the parking lot.

What's with police and the excessive shooting in many cases of this nature? Are they trained to exaust all their ammunition at the first sign of danger?

I hear about incidents like this and usually the perp is shot 7+ times.

Nope.

I hold judgment until the surveillance video comes out, but god damn cops need stricter rules of engagement. No matter what happened, spraying that many bullets in front of a store is negligent as fuck.

Theyre all being turned into black people.

Also you seem to be under the opinion that even asking the question means she's already banging other guys, which is a huge, major trust issue on it's own.

SWAT 4 is the thinking man's shooter

SWAT 4 was just a copy of the old school rainbow six games

No it wasn't.

you couldn't kill, no planning phase, less control of you're squad. you're right rainbow six was better.

Argue what you think is wrong with the post or don't respond to it. I'm open to debate but it sounds like you just want to be mad.

I agree with the sentiment but you're doing the thing where you're like "well if it was X race they'd want it to be 99% that race too"

but that is dismissing the whole racial dynamics of white people and the whole idea of "whites only" as pertaining to black people in the United States

now that you've explained yourself i am feeling like being a lot less hostile because i clearly wanted to be mad tho i will admit

For example, the people at a small birthday party for a kid are probably gonna be 99% the same race of whatever the kid is, whatever race that may be. That doesn't mean they're racist and they wouldn't allow someone of another race there.

you are managing to "all lives matter" this discussion
congrats

My point was that just because a party ends up being mostly white people, it doesn't mean its "white only" or that other people can't attend.

Nobody was talking about these parties
and you refuse to admit or acknowledge that many of those parties, THOUGH NOT EXPLICITLY ADVERTISED AS SUCH, are often de facto whites-only parties anyway

Read what I posted again

The subject is parties that are exclusively one race by design

What you're referring to is not relevant to this discussion (90% white, 10% other race parties)

I responded to the part of your post that is relevant, and that's the part where you think it's totally cool if a party is exclusively and functionally whites only, as long as it's not explicitly advertised as whites only

No, I didn't say that. Read it again.

you implicitly disagreed with the post you were responding to
which said discrimination in a party isn't okay

go home

90% of parties whites of all ages attend are white only. Some explicitly, just not publicly broadcasted as such.

The white people you know aren't representative of all white people obviously. And there's a difference between something be 90% of one race but others are still allowed to attend, and simply not allowing a race of people to attend.

OH OKAY I see
So as long as they're not ADVERTISING it as such, it's totally okay
I see, I see
Just as long as black people don't know they are being discriminated against, all good

It just blows my mind peoples priorities or people's complete lack of care towards others with a different skin tone than them.

If they weren't going to buy anything, an employee should be able to ask them leave. However, it's ridiculous to arrest them for this. But I doubt race had anything to do with it. If some white people sat down without ordering anything they would have been arrested too.

According to the logic in this dumbass post. Window shopping is grounds for an arrest.

White people looking for things to be offended over, not like there's a rich history from last century of people being denied access to pools on the basis of being a minority... Oh, wait.

What's that line, "don't let them get to you, why would you want to go where people hate you"

"Minorites need to stop shouting racism at everything while at the same time, understand that racism against whites is a real and prevalent issue that needs to be stopped"

Yakuza 0

tbh i think a lot of the hate is because she's a woman

Your point is fair and it also reinforces that there will never be a middle ground when it comes to race talk because it's too easy to formulate an excuse to not talk about it.

I honestly can understand how white people cant understand why something like this can actually be beneficial. They're so used to seeing people who look like them and will more than likely have the same interests/beliefs as them.

Do most people think all Laotian Americans are like Khan? Outside of his accent Khan wasn't at all a stereotype. the joke wasn't that he acted like a stereotype...it was that the 4 neighbors treated him like one regardless...

Stuck up Asian neighbors is a stereotype?

You all seem to not understand that alot of these colleges are predominantly white colleges. There are already tons of events that take place that are full of white people. So the few minorities that there are decide to have events just for people of color like themselves. To build a community.

I never said it wasn't bullshit; I was trying to be passive there, but I'll put it bluntly:

Now you know how we felt.

I didn't grow up in the 60's, where it was much, MUCH worse, but I've had all manner of shit yelled at me between growing up in Philly and now living in Va...I've been surrounded by direct and indirect shit all my life, and while this article makes me cringe, part of me does also go, maybe, just maybe, it will hit a nerve where white people finally go "OK, we get it, this shit is fucked up, but let's talk about it." and not the other nonsense that is normally the pushback from folks such as yourself - your very point after quoting me is a perfect example of it.

You get outraged about the OP and want someone to listen to your basis for anger, we've been fed up for longer and all we get is "suck it up, race baiters."

This is a cruddy thing to do, but now I hope non-PoC can at least understand what PoC - namely Black folk have had to deal with for a very long time, and yet the only way those on the other side have ever been willing to listen was after MLK was killed - it literally took a prominent person of interest being assassinated for anyone to actually open their ears and yet it was still done with all the push-back a situation could possibly have.

This is a pretty heavy-handed way to make a point, but if anything else I hope folks get their heads out of their asses and come to the table to actually discuss it.

Xbone has like no exclusives other than rare replay, which is kind of hard to count as an exclusive since it's a collection of games from other consoles.

Games on PC don't count because reasons

Remember when MGS V got 10's and tons of hype?

Not hiring criminals....is racist?!

My God does the left have any standards at all for PoC?

Standards are racist.

So ya'll support discrimination as long as it's the brown people who are the victims

Update: I tried to apologize in person, with sincerity and she didn't even acknowledge me so I just said my piece and walked away. I sent a couple texts reiterating how I wanted to fix what I broke and I understand that she has every right to be upset and etc.

Basically no response. It sucks but it's the shit I created so I'm going to own it I guess.

Super awkward...

apologize with sincerity, but the only way to gain trust is to earn it by demonstrating you're trustworthy.

It's almost as if using a criminal background check has unintended discriminatory outcomes

It doesn't exclusively effect one race though. A person of any race can have a criminal history and a person of any race can not have one too. Its not like its targeting people based on race.

nobody argues that.

you'd have to completely misconstrue somebody's argument to even come to that "counter argument"

It's almost as if using a criminal background check has unintended discriminatory outcomes

Target Corp. is dishing out a hefty $3.74 million to settle a lawsuit in which it is accused of using criminal-background checks to keep thousands of black and/or Hispanic people from getting jobs.
