What's our opinion on this ? In the same way in which if you think you're a man or a woman or in transit (not the Ford) then people have to accept that is what you are, can I, as a white man, insist I'm really black ? So being stopped by police, can I start screaming about racial harassment?
"You wouldn't have done that if I were white !"
Puzzled cop "but you are white..."
"No I'm not, that's just outside, inside I'm really black. Ow, get off ma neck, Motherfuggah !"

The message, enduring, of Martin Luther King, Jr. was that the content of your character defines you, not your skin color or any other identity. To me that is unvarnished truth and belongs on the totem of our civilization. I abhor favoring, subsidizing, or providing advantages based on race, gender, politics, diversity goals and the like. Merit should be the definitive selector. Period.

No comment?

Anyone? Or are you all too terrified?
Not at all. I'm in broad agreement with you, as I often am.
I am not in agreement with you over your inclusion of certain groups, but that is your right of choice.
This thread has become a bit it of a self licking lolly pop. For clarity Cape, which groups that AK included do you take exception to being included?

For clarification, I didn't say I took exception to, I said I was not in agreement with, his inclusion of certain groups.

I don't see the point of pursuing what those groups are in the context of this thread topic (black lives), but if you really want to know, you will find my views elsewhere. Can we leave it there?

Has nobody got balls?

If you don't like men, who like other men **** them up the arse, why not say so?

If you don't like men, or women, pretending to be the opposite sex, why not say so?

If you disapprove of the Jew, **** his neighbour, in a lawyerly way, speak out!

If you don't like the darkie, and ****, who could blame you, why keep quiet about it?

A situation that obviously has two sides to the story.
The police were patrolling looking for a black youth responsible for knife crime, when a black Mercedes with heavily-tinted windows accelerated away from them.

The stop.

Police seek meeting.

Methinks if the occupants of the car were white, then the police would have reacted differently.

" with heavily-tinted windows"

If this is true how could the police know the "tint" of the driver, especially from a position behind the car?
the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible.

That was something that I pondered - maybe they 'assumed' and their suspicions were confirmed when they effected the stop.

If the driver had been white then they would probably have behaved differently.

Am I alone in finding Atomkraft's views and his language offensive ?

I would not say offensive, I would have said some theories presented in a less than delicate manner. Not the way to win friends and influence people.

Ref # 448 AK.

I don't like any of them, but so long as they don't affect my life in anyway, I don't give a stuff what they do.

It is always interesting how do you define the group of people you consider friends and those you need to influence. If let's say I dislike water-melon I make sure I don't advertise it to a person cultivating those fruits and I need him to get me a job. On the other hand if I don't care about the other person I would be more honest and descriptive on how I dislike water-melon.

Do the police stereotype or do blacks create that stereotype?

Subjectively a black minority in London, probably a local majority, may be more likely to have knives and drugs than a similar random number of whites.

Again subjectively, they are more likely to use knives. Similarly the police are scared. They say you counter the fear and threat of being attacked is by aggression and overwhelming force.

In London it was 4 police in the US 4 armed police. In the latter case the suspect was in a car on a driveway. He was shot while in the car.

In the London case I would like to see whether the road was a 3 track suburban road with two lines of cars and one drive lane. If it was there would have been no opposing traffic so they could have stopped in place.

In the US case where was this incident? What was the driver doing, or more likely not doing, to cause the policeman to shoot?

As said above, the media for the prosecution seem to automatically assume the police are at fault. In the London case, was one policeman black?
