My advice? Stay off Facebook.

Her “bowing” sounded, to me, like “going against the cultural tendency to look for the slightest offense to justify a beatdown”.

I didn't read the article, it was so ugly right off the bat, racist and ignorant beyond comprehension.

I did read the comments section for the article, it made me sick, made me so disgusted with what the race pimps have done to our culture.

If you want to see a lot of racism and ignorance, just read the comments section for the article itself.

We have to demand that white people speak up in discussions on racism, not race - racism. While we tell our thousandth story about being accosted, turn and ask a white person, "What are you learning from this? How will you change as a result of hearing this? How has the verdict impacted you and your life going forward? What will you do differently in your life, as a result of this verdict?" Something. The parade of black grief while white folks sit and stare has to cease. We did not create the conditions for our suffering.

This person has a serious problem, and I doubt that it can be fixed without some long-term therapy.

I do look like security: 6 feet tall, 340lbs, short hair, goatee, usually wear black pants and black shoes. I get that a lot. Laugh at them or reply, "you're okay, this time!" to really confirm their paranoia. LOL

Blacks are more racist than Whites

She must be paid by the word. If she’s paid by the thought she’s starving.

So all the hundreds of thousands who died in the Civil War to free them, all the trillions of dollars handed out just since the LBJ administration, all the whites who marched and voted for civil rights, all the changes made since Jim Crow are all for naught? Wasted effort? Nothing we do will ever be enough? Then GO TO HELL!

[clintonh8r]

My comments were deleted. What a surprise.

[clintonh8r]

No. Nothing will ever be enough. Being “victims” is too profitable.

>> The article and its comments reveal some shocking ideas.

Article plus comments make me wonder how many black racists (and white apologists for black racism) are floating around out there. Quite a few, I guess.

That’s some serious derangement.

[CatherineofAragon]

Yep, sounds about right.

[trisham]

I hear you. I have no idea how to remedy this problem that I had thought was past most of us. What has happened in this country since 2008 shocks me.

[Mr. K]

Geez this woman is a stupidass ... and I am getting sck of this $hit

[2ndDivisionVet]

Hold on. I have a feeling it’s going to get much worse.

[pallis]

It’s a lumbering bit of sophomoric muck, but I made a pdf copy, and promise to give it a complete read at a later time.

"...When are we going to have a 'town hall on racism' where white people discuss how they will speak to their children to make sure another George Zimmerman does not walk among us?"

Are you effing kidding me, lady?

You can bemoan the stereotypes that cause all other races to fear black, hoody-wearing, teenagers all you like, but the truth is that stereotypes all have some basis in fact.

While one can be branded as a racist, lose one's job, lose one's home, and lose one's freedom these days for stating the truth, the statistics bare out the fear.

If there is going to be a town-hall where parents are encouraged to talk to their children, I think it needs to be on the other side of your self-imposed racial divide.

[trisham]

It does seem to be accelerating.
