    The whole point of minorities is how to accommodate them. If Canada hadn't been culturally accommodating then we would have problems with higher crime rates, violence and the social ills that have hit America. Canada changed its whole identity to accommodate Quebec. We have a loose federation of provinces, we have multi-culturalism, two national languages and a very tolerant cultural identity all because of Quebec. We haven't done it perfectly but we have nowhere near the social ills that America has. Repeated American intolerance created the black sub-culture. It will continue until you learn tolerance.

    It's also funny that you choose to ignore the issue of language. America hasn't had to deal with it so you dismiss it like it's nothing. With the changing demographics of the southern states it may yet become an issue and you'll finally understand.

    It's sad that Americans only learn about other countries through their military. If America wasn't so insular it might be easier to police the world.

    Obviously. Al Sharpton would agree.

    My point is about the hypocrisy of hate crime legislation. I shouldn't have to explain that.

    Those are your words and I'm sure everyone who is black fits your racist perception, right? My point was that you've fallen right into the trap the media set for you by expressing your outrage against another race. It's normal to be mad, but the way to fix it is not to do exactly what they wanted you to do, which was get mad, fester the hate, contribute to the attention given to it, and demoralize another race as if your own doesn't do the same, even if it is in lower numbers.

    How we deal with issues says a lot about us.

    Read my post again. See if you can decipher my point based on the actual words I typed.

    You need to learn how to read news stories: "corner of MLK and South 19th in the Hilltop neighborhood."

    Which explains my original thread title (before it was edited by the mods): "Group of black-black teens mercilessly stomp white-white couple." The media were tripping over themselves to make sure we understood George Zimmerman was a "white-hispanic" and not just a hispanic jew....

    Exactly the point of my thread.

    Yep. You got the whole point of my thread.

    By the way, I remember that quote about "blacks can't be racist" too. Who said that?

    Is this going to be another thread where you completely miss the point of the thread?

    I have made 500 posts on here and I have never made an anti-American post until today. It's tough when you're constantly told you don't know anything about America simply because the other person disagrees with your politics. It gets really tiresome. I like America and I hate being put in a position where nationalism becomes an issue.

    Where is the hypocrisy? These folks were attacked over a cigarette, do you think if this couple had of been black that they would not have attacked them also.

    What kind of thread is this like, exactly? And how does such, as you suggest, prevent certain individuals from entering college or getting jobs?

    I won't agree that they "deserved it." However, you are probably right about their political leanings and in that regard they have noone to blame but themselves for supporting such that tolerates or excuses this kind of behavior.

    As the OP, I never claimed it was racially-morivated.

    Slava, the right wing fringe, especially online, is not a representation of most Americans.

    It is not a hate crime: The victims are white.

    In your original post, you referred to hate crimes. That is saying that you consider this crime racially motivated.

    You only purpose was to talk about a black on white crime like it was news. Crimes happen every day and we do not start a thread on every crime.

    Well, this implied it:
    But fair enough. Others still claimed it was. It was just dirtbag punks acting like dirtbag punks.

    Ignorance? Nobody cares about your country because your country is meaningless. You have about the same standing in the world as Iceland. Ever think that us buying your oil is a bigger benefit to you than us? What else you got up there to trade? Snow?

    And you act like being an ally is something we should cherish. When it comes to military, on a good day our Salvation Army could kick your ass.

    Let's review:

    Heterosexual white perp + non-white victim = hate crime.
    Non-white perp + heterosexual white victim = simple assault.

    Glad I could help.

    Not in the least.

    That's quite a presumption on your part.

    You'd do well to vacate the assumptions. I don't disagree that had the victims been black, the black teens probably would have stomped their faces too. But were it white teens stomping an innocent black couple, hate crime charges would already be on the table. And Al Sharpton would be showering at the Holiday Inn in Tacoma.

    Really? Please cite where I called it a hate crime.
