So in the heart of Conservtopia, the Deep South, they've solved racism?

Sure, we lured all the black people into the inner city with low paying jobs, then when they started demanding to be paid a decent wage we sent their jobs over seas. trapping them inside.

We didn't like... blow up the bridges when we left or anything but we found numerous other clever ways to keep them trapped inside.

And basically we turned the old cities we weren't using any more into giant prisons surrounded by the outerbelt which became the de facto maginot line between the races/classes

You thought there was truth to that already because stereotyping is too easy for the stupid to resist.
Not really. I think there's truth to it because you respond in the stereo typical way! I'm not racist because I totally have black friends A dozen of em even! So take that! What we say here should and usually always is taken with a grain of salt but when you respond like you did it starts to make ya wonder lol.. Why you even get defensive like that is beyond me. And talk about whipping out the H-card for accusing others of relying on sterotypes! Ha!

Eh, it was more of a roundabout way of dealing with forum rules. Really I just wanted to call you stupid in particular. And Nik brought up my number of black friends first, I was clarifying. I'll be sure to ask a couple of my black friends if they think I'm racist when I see them tomorrow. That should give them a good chuckle.

Thank you for giving me such a high compliment! I strive to acheive more high praise from you in the future...

Yup! You go do that! Hey mr. black friend i'm not racist right? Please reassure me!

Do you feel confident that you've reassure the AH community that you are not racist now? That must feel pretty darn good.

I have a map of the globe in my bedroom and I hope to have friends from every country in the world one day. Then and only then will I attain progressive godhood.

...finding a friend from the Democratic Republic of the Congo will be fun.

Where the frick are all these inner city problems coming from? Conservative states? We're going to blame all the problems in Detroit, Baltimore, LA, etc. on conservative policies when so many of them have been run both at the local and state level by Democrats for decades? Come on, you can't be that dense.

I'm glad you brought this point up. Detroit is a perfect example.

Who built detroit?
And?

When did the city start going to shambles, and which political party was in charge at that time?

There's really no evidence to support your claim, so I feel just fine. Well, except for the fact that you're still talking. It's hard to feel "pretty darn good" when that happens.

Freddie Gray: Baltimore police to face criminal charges

Quote:
Baltimore's top prosecutor says she plans to file criminal charges against six police officers over the death of Freddie Gray.

State prosecutor Marilyn Mosby said the death of the 25-year-old black man was a homicide, and his arrest had been illegal.

As she made the announcement at a press conference, protesters cheered loudly, briefly interrupting her remarks.

Not many details released yet, I'm guessing there will be a statement released later with more info.

Now you got it! If you had realized that in the first place maybe you wouldn't have spent so much time trying to defend yourself and worry about telling us exactly just how many black friends you have.

There's a simple solution for that so you must like having me around for some reason or just like to punish yourself lol...

Considering that the downfall of Detroit started in recent years, and democrats have controlled Detroit since 1962, your rebuttal has no meaning.

Fixed link for you.

Also, didn't say what the charges were going to be. Should elaborate on that, shouldn't they?

I didn't make the initial claim about the number. I clarified the claim about the number. I never would have brought it up otherwise. BTW, a little birdie told me that you made a donation to the KKK last year. Don't try to deny it, you'll only be incriminating yourself by offering a counter-claim. Racist.

I always knew that Spath was a racist too, he even brought the KKK into the discussion, he must be a member!

I'm establishing the bounds for how we lay blame on something regarding your comment. Your simple logic regarding that matter seems to point to whoever is in office when the offense takes place is at blame.

I looked at the charges. I wonder if they have the evidence to support it.

I did see the response to the investigation though:

Seriously, can you not see what you are writing, or are you being purposefully blind so you can paint yourself in a better light in your mind?

I saw that, but my point is, do they have enough evidence for a conviction? Or are these warrants politically motivated? I'm leaning towards the politically motivated part, to try to stop the rampant looting in Baltimore.

But you know what, if they were purposefully or professionally negligent, then justice needs to be served.

Why would you need to clarify the number of black friends you have? That proves just about as much as Nik's claim does. His is at least based on some sort of truth in other situations and you played out the role true to the sterotype lol...

Being as defensive as you are on the subject lends more truth to the claim than anything.
