    You don't even live in this nation so the only thing you know about what happens here is what you are told.

    Probably a real rarity for you to even see a black person.

    Seen plenty of my share of fights.

    I'm not curious why white people in the US regularly throw racial slurs at black people / discriminate them and usually ends with them lot getting an education by the fist.

    The internet is full with people recording such instances. And them whites usually have no problems that they get recorded being like that. We all know this comes from the 1960's culture where whites were legally allowed to discriminate black people. That culture was around for 100's of years. Trump and Biden of from the generation who got raised up with that culture. And that generation passed it on to the next.

    We all can see that culture did not just vanish when the law changed.
    For instance: You got people here that still support Chauvin killing a black handcuffed man who posed no threat and so would have no problem if that happens every day.

    It isn't like it's not remotely a two-way street and you can find videos examples of the opposite shoe on the other foot.

    It's not going to get any better especially as we have those on the far left with the mentality that it's now your turn whitey and acting like all whites are racist.

    Look at this thread for example. If the races were reversed several posters would have already accused the op of posting this only to make black people look bad and calling him a racist.

    But you don't see anyone doing that in this thread

    Is this story on Fox News? Why didn't they cover it?

    Pff. Currently the far right wing mentality is that there is no racism. I sourced plenty of times that there is. And it's always met with people disputing what has been scientifically proven. And this racism that has been proven is a 1 way street.

    And looking at this example: there is no black kid who tried to kill a white kid like that, while calling him George Floyd.
    And it is also because no black cop has lynched a handcuffed white male posing no threat the way Floyd got murdered.
    But there is a wide support for Chauvin for murdered a black person like that... that's where defend the blue comes from.

    If you want to play victim about allegedly ill informed foreigners (again...or still...hard to tell) then you really shouldn't be flaunting your own ignorance of other nations:

    Nope. I see black people every time I heave the house. Positively surrounded by them last night. What was it you claimed last time you went down this path - that black people were as common in Australia as manatees in Florida and that was the reason we weren't all killing each other the way Americans do? Clearly you didn't even get to the 'what you were told' bit there.

    Look, I understand that there are subcultures in the US where ignorance is not only expected but positively encouraged, but you shouldn't assume people in other nations are the same. Some of us actually attempt to learn about other countries, bizarre as that might sound to you.

    Drug use, criminals & violence do tend to go hand in hand.

    In the victim's case, just because he's black?

    Are you suggesting he would not have been targeted for his race, had he been raised in a two-parent household?

    Whew- - - - -not even worth trying to explain, how incredibly ridiculous, and at least mildly racist, that attitude is.

    No one on the right says that there is no racism. What they say is that it is not this giant boogie man that the left likes to portray.

    And yes Virginia, black people can be plenty racist. That you think racism is only a one-way Street might simply be more evidence that it's more predominant than you might think.

    Though I do think it is pretty ironic that you're doing the same exact thing that you're accusing the right wing of doing. I guess you believe it's impossible for black people to be racist since you think it's strictly a one-way Street

    That may be the case, but when children go bad, unless it is obvious, the parents may not be the cause. That said, the parents are responsible, but to lay blame on their parenting skills needs to be reviewed before judged.

    Frankly, I'm surprised there isn't video of the altercation. Recently, in my city, there have been story after story about kids getting into fights that have led to deaths and shootings leaving wounded in the hospital. All captured on cell phones memorializing the events.

    White supremacy has been waning for decades. It's only drummed in the minds of the left. Granted, there are some staunch supporters of Biden and the Ukraine war.

    That's not my experience when I present the prove that racism in society includes racism by cops.

    Well I showed that it's pretty much a one-way street. ... with the example we got now, where George Floyd gets mentioned. I don't recall a white George Floyd variation. I can recall an other person who died just like that by cops. And in fact, Chauvin himself chocked a child unconscious previously after he hit the kids head with a flashlight multiples times. The child just happens to be black. Who knew, right? lol

    The entire defend the blue, defends this brutal racist thug with a badge. And they are also here on this forum.

    You say that the parents are responsible, so automatically to me... they are partially to blame. I can't understand how your reasoning that they are responsible but it can come without blame. That's just weird.

    Good parents can have bad behaving children and bad parents can have very well behaved children. I've certainly seen it dozens of times. Each case should be judged separately.

    If you're claiming that you're not aware of any other white people who were unjustly killed by the police then that proves nothing more than you're choosing not to pay attention.

    Hey remember when those five cops killed that one black guy and they called it white supremacy?

    I bet you were on board with that

    You got people who were killed unjustly by cops, and you got people like George Floyd, laying handcuffed with his face in the dirt and getting lynched to death during a 10 minute crazy as hell ordeal in the broad daylight. And the murderer had no problem smiling at the camara, since the other cops made sure nobody was able to interfere.

    That's on a whole new level. And this happens to black people not white.

    Either you're not paying attention or you don't want to or you're only seeing what you're presented with.

    Here's your white George Floyd for you in the link.
    Are you going to deny it, maybe criticize the source instead of seeing what's in plain sight? Or you could acknowledge learning something new and that knowledge is power

    Oh wow. an example of 7 years ago.
    I also find it very cute to see how suddenly in absolute numbers the white people are killed more often and suddenly it doesn't matter that cops are punching above their weight on this. Your source names 26 unarmed whites vs 20 blacks. That's 43% while the % of black people is.....

    So you're proving it happens to black people at a rate 3 times more often.
    Thanks champ.

    And George Floyd was what ,5 years ago so do you have some point?

    Oh so now you're a fan of per capita math?
    Is that so champ?

    You liberals hate per capita math when it's used to demonstrate how much more violent black people are than whites given their population number of both.

    But anyhow, according to you that doesn't happen to white people. It looks like you learned something new today.

    The police will beat and kill your white cracker ass too.

    And you are also conveniently ignoring the fact that this white man killed in the same fashion called the police on himself because he was having mental difficulties
