Cops Shoot and Kill UNARMED White Male… Where’s the Outrage?

Quote:Probably on my own with that part in bold.


I don't find the subject delicate or hurtful at all, the guy actually made some decent points I just think it was written in an inflammatory way on purpose.


The whole black/police/white divide is pretty alien to me.
This divide doesn't exist where you live. At least not in the capacity as it does in the US. I will give a single example at the risk of being called out as a racist or something like that.

 

If I call on the telephone and speak to someone in your country, or Europe in general, I will not be able to determine the race of whom I am speaking to. There isn't the cultural divide like there is in the US.

 

Now, on the other hand, if you call via telephone to the US, The odds that you could tell whether you are talking to a black person or a white person are very high. Not always, but in a majority of the cases, you could tell.

 

That is a simple example of the cultural divide between whites and blacks in the US.

What lies behind us, and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
