Official Discussion Thread (Ghost Edit)

Sports, politics, movies, videogames, questionable hobbies, photos from your family vacation, etc. Talk about stuff that isn't ponies or music. But do try to stay on topic and respectful of alternate opinions.

Aaand you just had to go open the pandora's box, BaC. Gratz on that, bro.

Nobody would start a major protest if a black cop shot a white teenager because they wouldn't need to. If that happened, the officer would be guaranteed to face some sort of justice, or at the very least, would be indicted ffs. Nobody needs to start mass protests just to get justice in those cases. And don't pretend that this is a stand-alone incident, because you know very well it's not.

I know very well this isn't the only case. But my point is that race should never be brought into scenarios. Because it's not about white vs black. It's about man vs man.

It may be. But race is brought into all the time.

Thing is, race isn't really brought into the scenarios, it's already there

Like, if you look at statistics about violence, police misconduct, incarceration and so on, or the percentage of black residents vs the percentage of black police officers in Missouri, or the fact that the KKK donated loads of money to Darren Wilson, etc., race is definitely part of what's going on.

It shouldn't be, but it is.

Its only there because it's brought into it. It doesn't just appear.
Gas may be in your car. It's already there. But it was brought there at some point and is continuously fed into it.
And racism is continuously fed into this too.
But it's dumb.
Because it spawns hot debate.
And really it shouldn't.

It should not be there. It never should have existed. I really hate the concept of racism and sexism. People are people. Act like it

BaC is right, it shouldn't exist but simply avoiding it because it gets debated only lets it propigate and fester unchallenged and it just gets worse and worse. Never avoid an issue because you don't like the conversation, you just become part of the problem otherwise.

In other words, ignoring a problem won't make it go away.

I never said to avoid the problem.
I'm not even sure where you would even get that from my posts.
Problems should be addressed and solved.
But the fact that they exist is stupid. Because if everyone looks back in the past, we would see all the peaceful protests that people did to get racial equality. It got somewhere in America.
No more slaves.
No more legally being segregated.
Bit now it's completely a social issue and it needs to stop.

On an unrelated note: I'm about to start a blog called "Ricky's Guide To Not Give A Shit And Fuck Haters" and I'm being deadly serious about this. But I'm also gonna have a Q&A for this, so if anyone wants to join in on asking some questions, just PM me.

On a related note: I'm coming Mission Remixable. Tom Cruise this sucka!

Don't worry, I'm not doomed. If all else fails I'll just take a little time off uni and live in Toowoomba till I can sort it out :P
