    Sorry? According to f'd up Apartheid logic at least a billion Asians were considered white. Ergo in our racists friend's equally f'd up logic it is entirely possible he/she considers the condemned Aussies "white"

    Now if you will excuse me I'm off to silently weep for the white South Africans who played absolutely no part in creating that violent cauldron that exists today...

    Asians were not considered 'white' under apartheid. They were classified as 'Coloureds'. You're calling someone racist when you made the most racist post in this thread. It's hilarious.

    Same bs is used to try and "justify" extreme violence against whites in America. Do you have any idea of how few whites were actually involved directly in slavery? Do you realize almost none of the living whites today, nor their ancestors, had anything at all to do with it?

    And you can save your crocodile tears. The death of whites anywhere must give you the warm n fuzzies when you imagine their deaths being some sort of sacrifice to the imaginary gods of racial justice. Your type truly disgusts me.

    Contrary to what you think I find all violence against anyone equally disgusting.

    Because of this I find it essential to ask the question "why" in order to do everything I can to prevent it from happening to others.

    Go back to reading Stormwatch you racist prick.

    Terrified whitey would be funny if he weren't so dangerous.

    How so? Terrified white peoples like yourselves sit in their basement and read Alex Jones and Stormwatch- nothing inaccurate about that.

    Right back at ya there, tough guy ;)

    I don't need to "go" anywhere. The FBI crime stats exist independently of your weak barbs at "Stormfront", lol. I am sorry pointing out reality makes you so cranky but that's life.

    Can't wait for you to share your amazing plan at how to prevent the type of rioting and looting we see in Baltimore and elsewhere. I am guessing it involves lots of finger-wagging lectures against whites who had nothing to with slavery and of course hugging rioters and stuff. Good luck with that ;)

    I am not a regular reader of either of those sites. Not that it matters. So cool to know you're psychic as well as the possessor of the skills to heal the American racial divide, however. Ireland is sooooo lucky to have you here :rolleyes:

    Do we even have basements in this country? Never saw one. You obviously dislikes white people. Thats your prerogative. Yet here you are. After voluntarily migrating to one of the whitest country's on the globe. That makes you an extreme hypocrite.

    Dude I'm white myself. And as I stated above I have equal scorn for violence against whites as I do for violence against anyone else

    Except for the whites in South Africa and those you deem "racist pricks". You do realize we can read what you post and have more than a 2minute memory recall of their content?

    Haha...of course you go immediately to reading my posting history in the hopes of finding a means of attacking me and deflecting away from the posting of black on white crime stats. I mean, it's only to be expected.

    If you object to the execution of men after the judicial process, why do you have no problem with extra-judicial killing?

    Are you for real? The "judicial process" and its problems in the Indonesian case have aready been hashed out on the topic's thread, a thread you've participated on. What are you trying to accomplish by playing dumb about the holes in that case on this thread?

    Because I'm not justifying trying to kill cops or the death of cops by linking to it.

    I'm fully aware of that. Yet here there wasn't a flawed judicial process or even a capital crime, and your contribution on the incident is to link statistics trying to show the black community in a bad light? It's a rather striking juxtaposition.

    Nor has anyone else far as I can see. Since I've not linked to it either I would ask again what it is you are hoping to accomplish by dragging the Indonesian execution case into this thread?

    A man objects to people being executed for drug smuggling. The same man has no problem nor raises objections to a man being killed by police sans trial or charge (on multiple occasions). It's a striking contrast. Perhaps if you explain?

    I posted stats that are relevant to the geographical area in which cops have to operate. I am not "trying to paint the black community in a bad light" by posting factual stats. If that's the conclusion some come to regarding this "community" upon viewing those stats then perhaps its the actions of those upon whom those stats are based on which paint themselves as "bad". I didn't make them up.

    Race is not an issue in this one or most of the ones recently.

    So you've nothing against them..............................but......

    So cops operating in a rough area who may be responsible for a needless death are justified because "black crime" or some such?

    I don't recall saying it was in this case. I did however link to some stories that show problems within the Baltimore PD. I then today find people posting nationwide stats for crime related to one specific community, again.

    Btw: And I am very well schooled in the "racial dynamics" of the USA. Very.

    The Bell Curve doesn't count as schooling - it counts as pseudo-scientific bullshit.

    A simple fact is that draconian US laws, and a racist justice system, have failed spectacularly and those who continue support the system, in its current guise, are either as thick as shit or get a kick out of it.

    I didn't make one single comment regarding anyone's death being "justified" so that comment is ridiculous. You can look to your ideological pal there, the one who mocked violence against whites in South Africa, for that kind of thinking ;)

    The post I made gave crime stats for both Baltimore (currently 65% Black) and to Maryland in general, the State the city of Baltimore is situated in. Also I linked to a horrible black on white murder in Baltimore, that of Kim Leto, a case which hasn't been given national, nevermind global attention at all.

    And no Riots or looting.

    I wonder the reaction to a white man doing the "bonnet dance" in response ?

    What have those stats to do with the topic exactly?

    You also linked to another murder that nobody seems to think had a racial dimension, save you, and a site that has some rather dubious ideology and stats of "black on white" violence.

    I've read a few articles re the Kim Leto murder on Baltimore related news sites. Not one mentions race as having anything to do with it.

    'Corpse waving' I've heard that described as i.e. taking a brutal murder and trying to use its emotional impact to your own ends. It's not at all clear that the killing was racially motivated so I don't know why you have shoe-horned it into the discussion as often as you can. Also, even if there was a racial element the two scumbags who carried it out are in custody and will, rightly, serve lengthy sentences.

    The fact that the US police (i.e. those tasked to protect and serve the public) are very rarely convicted for killing people points to a much larger multifaceted systemic problem. The idea that all these issues can be summarised as 'they're criminals because they're black' is stupid at best and profoundly racist at worst.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,919 ✭✭✭Einhard


    Are people really claiming that a man who had his spinal cord severed by the police is somehow playing the victim? Really? Because that's a new level of craziness for After Hours.

    The man was no angel obviously, but he didn't deserve to be killed by the police. Unless one thinks that the police should have the power to arbitrarily hand out violent beatings to whomever they take a dislike? Scarily, I'm pretty sure that there are some posters here who would be more than happy with such a scenario.

    As for the rioters, they're mindless thugs and should be prosecuted to the fullest extent.

    Isn't that what the OP, looters and rioters are exactly doing?

    This issue is more than just the killing of one black guy.

    Except that we only hear this "was not racially motivated" in black on white attacks. It's ALWAYS racist when it the rare black on white cases occur but the attention to them by media makes it seem like it's an every week occurance.

    And it is not "corpse waving" (nice term there btw) since the case occurred in Baltimore and almost no one here has even heard the name Kim Leto. Or Channon Christian or Christopher Newsom or the hundred of other white victims of black violence each year. The highlighting of this fact was pertinent to the conversation and too bad if it feels like someone pissed in yer cornflakes by adding factual data you don't like to it.
