White unarmed youth shot and killed by Black Police Officer

#56

Quote:Why police are targeting black men? Its simple racial profiling when a officer randomly asks for your ID without probable cause and when you refuse you are subject to arrest for obstruction of justice. 

 

"Instead of blaming the easy target, how about focusing on accountability".

 

LOL, How can I be more accountable by having a clean record, but pulled over for driving in a neighborhood where "I dont belong"?
 

What kind of example is that? Has it happened before? Sure. Does it happen frequently? No, absolutely not.

 

As for you second comment, I'm not qualified to answer that question. I wasn't there, so I don't know what happened or why it was said. I can tell you that if you're in a place with high drug-activity and certain factors come into play, then that is sufficient probable cause to stop and question you even without committing a crime. I don't know if those conditions were met, so your question is irrelevant to the conversation. He doesn't have to explain those to you, either. 

 

 

Quote:So every single black person in the county you work in have either stolen, rob, murdered, or committed a burglary?

 

Do you have a link?
 

You know  I didn't mean every single black person. You were quick to judgement. 

 

The fact is that black people victimize their own people far more often than any exaggerated claims of police brutality and statistics show that.

 

 

Quote:He incorrectly generalized an entire race.
 

No, I didn't. It would be accurate to say that you incorrectly inferred that I meant all black people. Would it be more foolish to assume I actually meant every black person or to actually think every black person fit into the category you claim I meant?

 

 

Quote:"Race baiting".....really?

 

Because im asking for a simple clarification on a statement that could have been limited specifically to a number of people by just simply including the word "some", now is turned into me "spinning" something "into a racial issue", and "race baiting".

 

Your comment just proves my point with the problems SOME people have in this country when it comes to discussing race topics with different points of views.

 

I am interpreting things from my own point of view,  and just asked for clarification. Am I allowed to do that?

 

Accusing someone of "race baiting" is really petty and distracts from the question or clarification I was seeking.

 

If you are looking to try and start some sort of flame war regarding race discussions, you should try that tactic with someone else.
 

You didn't "just ask" for clarification.

 

You made an incorrect assumption about something that didn't need clarification in an attempt to invalidate my comment. You other comments prove as much.

 

Meanwhile, you're unable or unwilling to provide a response to any of my points. Now, if you want to address a certain topic, then feel free to bring that one up. But, when you make that absurd claim, then what could be a legitimate conversation turns into foolishness
