I have no doubt. What you’re saying here is what almost all of us think and experience. I wouldn’t — but would still — go into my personal experience of career, social and religious experience. But the topic here re Society In Shambles is either to laugh at silly things people do (where...

Too painful a subject for me. I've told about how my grandmother explained how I should act in public as a black man. One of the things she told me was I couldn't run in public because, if someone accused me of a crime, they could gun me down and ask questions later. And nothing...
Oh, @Supersizethatorder-mutt I know you didn’t mean it literally take’s *one* jerk to *prove* the opposite. I know you didn’t mean that. But that this might be the mentality of others is exactly what some of us are pushing against.
This is actually very telling: the majority of us (white or black) work with the other (black or white...or Indian or Hispanic or Asian or female or male or gay or lesbian or other, et al, et al) every day. Especially here in Atlanta. It’s what we do. It’s normal. We don’t question it. As...
Well..even though you’re already somewhere in Wisconsin, it’s safe to assume you wouldn’t be called as a juror with the declarative of murder here. But the trial will proceed nonetheless....because this is America and it’s the accused’s right..
I’m trying to catch up over the past pages .. but to be honest I’ve not come across anything you’ve said that’s enlightened or personal. It begs when this might happen.

Except that I happen to think — in my microcosm of blended, accepting society here in beautiful Stone Mountain, GA — that the needle is already moved forward. This is just pushing it back a couple or five or six decades...
“Travon Martin”. I’ve heard of him. Something happened to him about 10 yrs ago or so?
For sure depending on the locale there’s a chance for White trash rednecks as there are Black trash thugs. That’s the reality of present day.
Although if you’re the 70% that live in a Metro area the odds...
I think the option you’re omitting is how to posit how a person may feel because liberal emotional society *tells the person how to feel* based off of the past history of ancestors. I believe this is the new dynamic of the 21st Century and certainly modern politics.
And still you’ve yet to address why in 2020 you’re afraid of white guys in a hood or any of your verbatim comments. That’s the game you’re playing, friend. It’s fine to end this because you’re not serious. And that’s why this is Society In Shambles thread.
okay .. I understand. Somebody triggered you by a social forum comment. And for (if) that some bias and broadstroking has come out.
Just so you know, for the most of us it’s the underlying social irrational we fear.
Again, no. This is about your statements:
“Ok. Who are you saying that blacks fear?”
“White men in Klan hoods.
You need that explained?”

Now imagine your isolated experience happening to literally everyone in your race“
I nor anyone else should backtrack where you’re...
Yes, I’ve no doubt you and most would apply rationale to a sensitive topic as this. And also recognize wrong from good.
And even when others might have an agenda in play.
No. This isn’t about the Klan or the history of the Klan, which is already known.
This is about your specific comment
“Ok. Who are you saying that blacks fear?”
“White men in Klan hoods.
You need that explained?”

Brother, but you have to have sense and context in this.
It’s not for me to deny you. But you seem to be extrapolating — and I do hear you — the past as a contemporary norm. The evidence just isn’t there. We all know that there are deviants and evil people. It’s always been that way.
But...
But in the same instant as sane and intelligent person you realize the person is an abhorrent and an outlier among all classes. And that this isn’t 1950 in Mississippi.
Although I suppose it’s possible others from personal trauma are looking over their shoulders every minute expecting exactly...
I’ve literally not seen one person as this in real life in all my 50 yrs.
Exactly how many of these WMIKH have you personally experienced? Which excludes this type of one-off nutcase viral example?
