Why did you pick out that crime out of the millions of crimes that are going on every minute of every day? You might as well cite Myra Hindley and blame the suffragettes.
That happened to a black woman too?Walker wrote: ↑Thu Jun 01, 2017 11:26 am Why that one? Because it is a disgusting example of media bias and racism.
When media drops the story of youths at a white, segregated pool party body-slamming a 68 year-old black woman to the concrete and then hauling her over to the pool and throwing her in like a sack of potatoes, while she is tangled up in the leashes of her pet dogs, while everyone in the vicinity is getting a good laugh, then among all the millions of civil rights violations happening every minute as you say, that will also receive some attention. In fact as was already mentioned, I bet that such a story would not be dropped, as this one was.
You are a thick one, aren't you.Science Fan wrote: ↑Thu Jun 01, 2017 8:14 pm It's a crime, like was pointed out to you by another user. That's not a civil rights violation. Civil rights violations occur when there is a legal discrimination against someone based upon a specifically protected classification, like those based on so-called "race." Being attacked by a bunch of idiots is not the same as a government making such attacks against people of color legal, nor is it the equivalent of legal authorities refusing to prosecute such cases. Isolated criminal activities do not mean that there is a civil rights violation. Moreover, like I stated before, the civil-rights movement existed to overturn laws that sanctioned targeted discrimination against minorities. Those laws have been done away with, and this isolated incident has done nothing to reinstate such laws.
You appear to me to be a racist grasping at straws. I'm not sure if you are a racist, and don't really care personally, just letting you know how your argument is coming across to me.

I think you are making too many assumptions. I don't happen to live in a racist hell-hole so I can't really relate to this.Walker wrote: ↑Thu Jun 01, 2017 11:07 pmExactly the point.vegetariantaxidermy wrote: ↑Thu Jun 01, 2017 11:30 amThat happened to a black woman too?Walker wrote: ↑Thu Jun 01, 2017 11:26 am Why that one?

- Doesn’t happen.
- If it did, the racist press would fan the flames.

I meant I can't relate to what you are getting at. We don't base news coverage on a person's colour here. And yes, it was a horrible and disturbing video. Your assumption seems to be that it would have been more widely reported if it had been a black woman being attacked by a white man. You think this would have caused riots? And you don't know what the guy was thinking. Why does everything in your country have to be about black or white? FFS. Blacks are quite a small minority over there. Look at the way they've been treated. Whining about the 'civil rights' of white people is a bit rich (and I'm not talking about an individual white person!). That video is of a vicious assault, and would be treated as such by the law (presumably). What else do you expect to happen?Walker wrote: ↑Thu Jun 01, 2017 11:22 pmYou make a definitive statement, then in the very next sentence say you don’t know what you’re talking about.vegetariantaxidermy wrote: ↑Thu Jun 01, 2017 11:14 pmI think you are making too many assumptions.

Ceeripes.
The video speaks for itself, as does the original article.
I don’t live in a racist hellhole.
Where do you live?
You ever see a 68 year old woman body slammed like that? Commonplace, is it? Lovein on her, were they?
Think the same crowd would have done that to a black woman?
I think not.
In fact, it was a hateful, malicious, criminal act.
Now, if it had been a common street crime, like the racist moron up there is trying to pretend, that would be a different story.
Then read with better comprehension and think before posting because everything in the thread already responds to what you just wrote.vegetariantaxidermy wrote: ↑Thu Jun 01, 2017 11:36 pm I meant I can't relate to what you are getting at.
