Bike thieves are pieces of shinola. Are you a racist? Probably. At least a little bit

Interesting video.

 

Yeah, I've seen all of these. Interesting stuff to say the least, they also have experiments in shopping malls and Realtors if you do a little digging.

 

Damn, they ganged up on the black guy.

 

I liked the racist cab driver better

 

i would've left the both guys alone. I've lost the key to my bike lock before. and even if they were stealing the bike, it's none of my business.

The girl however, i would have prolly stopped and helped in stupid hope that she would reward me in some way afterwards even though my brain tells me that she will sell me out in a ny second.

 

id go find a tandem bike, and steal that so we could both go ride it.
allll night.

 

I would've helped the blonde girl for sure

Probably just walk by both guys because no real bike thief brings a electric saw in broad daylight to steal a boke

 

I would have screamed, "hey this person's trying to steal my bike!"

 

Put that White actor in a predominately Black neighborhood and you'd get similar results. ABC should be condemned for enabling racial animosity against Whites.

 

I like these kinds of experiments......it shows people who are not aware how deep prejudice runs.

I'm not surprised that there was little to no reaction when the white actor was "stealing" the bike.

My mother shared a similar story with me.

She was in a Piggly Wiggly one day with me (as a very small child) shopping. The assistant manager/manager of the store starts to follow her around at a distance (this man was caucasian). My mother is a fair skinned woman from the Caribbean and it was obvious that I was "black". She goes up several isles and this man continues to follow her at a distance watching to see if she steals anything. At the same time, my mother spots another woman (caucasian) with three children acting suspiciously by the frozen food section. The children were shivering and the mother was agitated. It turns out that this woman was clearly stuffing frozen meat packages into her children's clothing. The man following my mother around didn't notice this until my mother pointed it out as the other woman and her three kids were piling into their car and speeding out of the parking lot. The only thing left where the car had been was one frozen package of chicken. The store manager just stared with his mouth wide open. My mother, irritated, walked up to him and said " See that only happened because you were too busy following me around the store. Y'all (meaning caucasians) steal too! "

 

put that black actor in a black neighborhood and they would think he was stealing the bike too :grin:

i joked, but i serioused too

 

I understand you may not like what I said and that it might make you feel uncomfortable, but that doesn't make it any less true.

If you wish to challenge anything that I've said please do it in an adult manner

 

They need to re-do this experiment or test in other settings if they want to truly validate the claim that everybody is racist in a way (which I agree with)

 

I heard Indians are a lot racist too. Not racist but more judgmental.

 

Calm down you little bike thief.

 

This is honestly what I think too, No one's gonna bother the white guy even if this was done in a black neighborhood, because in people's mind white guys don't steal bikes.

 

Everybody has it in them to be racist. I've seen racial tensions between blacks and East Indians before where my mother is from. It comes from both sides and goes to both sides. The things I've heard some people in my own family say...its shocking
