Cops patrol black neighbourhoods, find black people committing crimes, arrest them, and use that as justification to keep patrolling black neighbourhoods. Meanwhile I literally haven't seen a cop car on my street a single time in my entire life. I could smoke all the marijuanas ever and they wouldn't be there to arrest me, while black people who smoke all the marijuanas ever get arrested for it. It's a self fulfilling prophecy Do you live in a good community? Because if you never see cops there then that means there is virtually no crime there and thus there's no reason to call the police.

_Near_ 09/27/17 5:08:51 PM #42:	Tyranoreal posted... Low income is also positively correlated with crime. Black people also make up a larger percent of the poor than they should. Hence why the "fact" can be racist as it neglects that there are other possible reasons to why they might me more likely to commit crime Exactly, and people often ignore the fact that most wealth is inherited. What does that mean for black people? Black people were property for 200 years, and second-class citizens for 100 after that. Most wealth is inherited and white people got a 300-year head start. That's not to say that there aren't low-income white people who came to America well after slavery, but if they came before the 1960s, the law literally put you above black people. And the effects of systemic racism is still felt today. So it shouldn't be shocking to anyone that black people are disproportionately low income which leads to more crime. But all redhats will say is "stop whining about slavery" and "civil rights" because it was such a long time ago and doesn't have to do with anything so that they can keep denying white privilege and not understand why a confederate statute isn't a fucking slap to the face to black people. --- http://i.imgur.com/QoIYepz.gif Just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean they're not after you. <cite>_Near_ posted [p:887403554] in "Blac...
