Trump, addressing the NRA meeting in Dallas said "Londons hospitals are awash with blood from knife crime".
"Knives, knives, knives".
Yeah, let's just ignore the 32,000 gunshot deaths each year in America, ya donut.

This makes me wonder why you were opposed to black people silently and peacefully protesting against those very same police you call "as corrupt as a third world country"?ClaretMoffitt wrote:Americans in general are seriously deluded as to the state their country is in socially. They laugh at our health care despite it out ranking theirs in pretty much every category. They laugh at our "police state" despite theirs being as corrupt as a third world country.

It's a pattern with him. He'll ignore or delay his responce to terrorist attacks commited by white people, but be in an orgasmic rush to tweet out condemnation when a brown or muslim person commits an attack.
But don't be calling him racist or anything. The purse clutchers will be terribly upset if you do.
Why do you assume I was only critical of the black people who protested? I was critical of all of them.Imploding Turtle wrote:This makes me wonder why you were opposed to black people silently and peacefully protesting against those very same police you call "as corrupt as a third world country"?
Because it was black people who were silently and peacefully protesting against police brutality during national anthems. And you criticised them for it.ClaretMoffitt wrote:Why do you assume I was only critical of the black people who protested? I was critical of all of them.

No one's trying to eradicate their guns. Sane, reasonable people want to make it harder for insane or otherwise mentally unstable people from having immediate, unchecked access to them.

I love how it's used as a stick to beat Trump with though, it has absolutely nothing to do with him, I believe it's been that way in America for over 40 years.
If they can't legally get one, they'll purchase one illegally. There is gun crime in this country. I don't think it's as easy to tell if someone is mentally unstable as you're making out. The guy who suffered from depression 10 years ago would be considered mentally unstable but the next guy who has been paid to kill wouldn't be considered mentally unstable nor would he shoot his own gun that he legally obtained.Imploding Turtle wrote:No one's trying to eradicate their guns.

One specific point about how certain privileged black individuals within the NFL claim to be systematically oppressed when in reality they are Lauded as hero's in a society that loves them. I took issue with it. So what.Imploding Turtle wrote:I've added emphasis to show you how you're full of ****.

It still doesn't change the fact I had a problem with it on many different levels across the board. Including black lives matters involvement, the rioting, and the dozens of white liberal protest groups stoking the tensions that were going on at the time. It was an anti nationalism and anti-trump movement underneath all the rhetoric and everyone knew it.
No. I don't use that because it's a completely seperate crime and has nothing to do with, well, anything really.Right_winger wrote:That’s because he is cherry picking information and using certain events to push a certain political opinion..
A little bit like yourself really.
You could use events such as when the blacks started rioting in towns like Ferguson but you don’t as it doesn’t suit your agenda.
A society that generally loves them, lol. Except when they decide to peacefully protest against the police who regularly kill them with something bordering on impunity.ClaretMoffitt wrote:One specific point about how certain privileged black individuals within the NFL claim to be systematically oppressed when in reality they are Lauded as hero's in a society that loves them.

So predictable IT, nice try to twist and clearly missing the point.Imploding Turtle wrote:No. I don't use that because it's a completely seperate crime and has nothing to do with, well, anything really.
And when you say things like "when the blacks started rioting in towns like Ferguson" you do two unfortunate things. 1) you expose your own racism by calling them "the blacks", and 2) you're cherry-picking even worse than what you're accusing me of. You're pointing to dozens of arseholes who rioted and ignoreing the thousands of protestors who just wanted to demonstrate peacefully against police brutality, while collectively referring to them all as "the blacks".

Now your next part is a poor attempt at a slur, point 1) is clearly a plural of a term which you have yourself used in post 10 and 16, I’m assuming your calling yourself racist? No of course not because using the term black or the plural blacks isn’t racist. Point 2) was specifically used to highlight your contradiction in calling someone a cherry picker.
Anyway as you were
I hope you don't mind me responding to this. It's dehumanising to reduce a person or group of people to a sole defining characteristic. Turning a subject into an object is a problem because it's far easier to implement and/or maintain a system that oppresses, dispossessed and disenfranchises an object than it is a system that oppresses, dispossesses and disenfranchises a Human being. The posts you referred to follow up the word "black" with "people", which is perfectly fine. It might seem trivial but it's an important distinction and it's important to not let this way of thinking slip in unconsciously. Doesn't at all mean to say you're a sieg heiling fascist, or anything, but it's worth considering that if you allow yourself to think of people as an object, you're allowing yourself to be used by real racists by consenting to the way in which people are and have historically been routinely dehumanised for ideological gains. (See, anti-Jewish propaganda).Right_winger wrote:point 1) is clearly a plural of a term which you have yourself used in post 10 and 16, I’m assuming your calling yourself racist?

Its amazing how anyone can turn a descriptive term in to the above. A load of overthought and over sensitive nonsense. I have never discriminated against anyone for any reason, and never will, but what happened in the past, although should never be forgotten, is history and cannot be changed. We should just ensure it never happens again.Spiral wrote:I hope you don't mind me responding to this. It's dehumanising to reduce a person or group of people to a sole defining characteristic.

You called black people, black then cried racism when another poster did the same thing. Interesting, you racist.Because it was black people who were silently and peacefully protesting against police brutality during national anthems. And you criticised them for it.
I'm sorry but 'your point is overthought' isn't a convincing argument. I've argued why it's important to choose words carefully; I'm not actually judging anyone on this thread. Sometimes even well-intended people can be clumsy with language. I'm no saint, I've done it myself.Heathclaret wrote:Its amazing how anyone can turn a descriptive term in to the above.

"the blacks" was the term he used. It's like saying "the gays", as if they're seperate and apart. It's a term racists like to use to disassociate them from "people".KRBFC wrote:But further up the thread, you said....
