[quote]Not to make it a personal judgement. But people who get drunk in bars, are likely not to make the best decisions in practically, so at best I have to take your word for it, that your decisions didn't lead you don't those paths. #victimblaming ^-^'[/quote] I have high tolerance and only drank beer, not the homemade stuff we had in the old country that we'd put in a car sometimes. [quote]What can be statistically shown, is the most violent cities are the ones that have been unending democratic control for long periods of time. [/quote] Sorry to be blunt but that the hell does this mean? [quote]The first link is true, but I don't deny of those statics. I point out those statics aren't linked due to genetics. But gang related crime. [/quote] They are, at least in part. [quote]I don't believe racism plays a big part in America. But I completely acknowledge and believe it probably is more of a problem everywhere else. Because many people don't take outsiders as kindly, and when they try to hard to accept the wrong ones there cultures get destroyed. [/quote] I don't know dude America seemed pretty racist and you hear stories of raycis people in America all the time but if you're an American I'll take your word for it. [quote]No, it's not. It's a bias to illegals (or criminals who happen to be non-Caucasian.) All those crimes didn't come from legal Hispanics. There's a stark contrast in their cultures. If a place like Russia, or Germany was joint at the hip to the United States. And all of them decided to move here without integrating, we'd have very similar problems... [/quote] It is unintentionally, because culture is not the only difference. [quote]A poor analogy, but has equal substance. Because I would like to point out plenty of white people have killed people...probably most than many others. Hitler was white, his kill count is staggering. There are also plenty of places (out of the US.) with mostly Caucasians that you'd feel much less safe than the higher black populated areas of America...[/quote] Very poor analogy, since that was after all 80 years ago and it's an argument based on "muh exceptions" which I instantly discount. Rich blacks also tend to commit as much or equivalent crime to poor whites. [quote]Do you think that same lowriding "thug" with a snapback wouldn't act that way, if he was white? :/[/quote] He's much less likely to do so, not to mention poor whites don't fall into that culture as much as poor blacks. [quote]And actually it is changing, for the worse. (thanks obama.) Black employment is at the lowest level in 17 years. (and no it's not because of just laziness. xP) But I say that to point out their is a problem happening, and it plays a much bigger part than you're acknowledging. [/quote] No, I acknowledge what is due acknowledgement. I do think that the break up of family structure thus leading to unemployment and a nasty circle is very detrimental. However, long ago, in ye olden days before words were even created, the white lad had to care for a family to help them survive the cold, they had to swim, and build shelter much more often, for this was the best way to pass on his DNA. For the African lads, the best way to pass on their DNA was to simply have as many partners as possible and beat the competition away. This, by natural selection and all created two groups of people with traits physical, behavioural and emotional that are very different, so while society can largely be blamed it isn't the [i]sole[/i] thing to be blamed. [quote]I'm not particularly sure if genetic has anything to do with behavior. But, my point is that. You're allow to acknowledge the differences between races, they exist. But my problem comes from stereotyping and generalizing all of them, and assuming one race is superior or inferior to another. Environmental change drastically changes your respective on life.[/quote] Yes they most definitely do. I do generalize although I find stereotypes to be often silly, i.e. Asians being bad at driving; they are most likely on average about as good at driving as whites because of higher IQ and thus pattern recognition and spatial awareness, whilst blacks loving their watermelons more than their mothers is also very silly since watermelons grow best in far north africa and the middle east and naturally wouldn't be part of their preferred/customary palette. Superiority is theoretically and in practice impossible, simply adaptations for different ways to lead of life is what happens. Blacks are faster than whites, whites are stronger than blacks, blacks are much better adapted for jumping whilst whites are better adapted for swimming. Yes, I admit that environs do heavily affect perspective. [quote]But I guess kind of furthest I can really go. I'd just lament that being overtly prejudiced won't be particularly helpful in real world. [/quote] I mean, I'm not. I don't assume that every single black out there is going to be some fried chicken munching serial rapist, I just think recognition of differences between various ethnic groups is healthy, and that has helped me in the real world.
