whoa acrossthestreet you just were hollering for me to show you statistics I show you that african americans are under 10% of our society and over 33% of our prisons and that young african americans score 20%+ lower than asian americans or caucasians and you have no witty reply this time?
and yes it's sad a sikh was stereotyped but that's part of that lack of intelligence, they lack knowledge and think a sikh is a towelhead arab or whatever ignorant thing they wanted to believe when sikh's are as peaceful as the come
ok perhaps i was a bit harsh....but they are way off when you say they're 20% behind on SAT scores with their same peers....
major explain the irony, is it that im ignorant? Is it bc i posted statistics showing the african american plight of lack of intelligence and a criminal incarceration at 6x the rate of their caucasian peers? If you feel im ignorant, the jokes on you bc the numbers back up what i say...
I think people are taking offense to the generalization. You make it seem like its an attribute of their race, which is not the case.
Let's break it down as simply as possible: and yes it's sad a sikh was stereotyped but that's part of that lack of intelligence, Stereotyping is a lack of intelligence. In the last few days, you've stereotyped everyone from poor people to black people to teachers to doctors. What does that tell us? The irony is seeing someone with a lack of intelligence (you) criticize others for a lack of intelligence. I don't think you understand what a stereotype is. I don't see any numbers that show that young black people are not as smart as puppies, by the way.
your term "they" would describe anyone who commits an atrocious crime upon a Sikh person, not just young black teens in Harlem of all places. that is where you miss the irony, and that is where the ignorance lies.
Racism - the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races. I honestly believe some people don't know when they're racist. I think it's commonly confused with discrimination.
The Sikh professor's wife responded in an article she wrote http://www.thedailybeast.com/articl...response-to-the-attack-on-prabhjot-singh.html
73% of drug users are white, but 73% of drug convictions are given to hispanics and blacks. Explain that. Take the white hood off.
15 percent of population, commit more than 50 percent of crimes. That is why they're in jail, dumbass
I think hidden in all of the immense irony of eddiewinslow's statements, the BIGGEST irony is the fact that his handle is an homage to one of the young African-Americans he claims has the intelligence of a puppy. There is enough irony in this thread to destroy the universe.
How on Earth does this statement address what da1's post even talked about? Now I'm starting to realize why I rarely venture into the D&D.
Guys, as a fellow brown guy I can attest to the fact that they are some of the most racist individuals around ESPECIALLY towards Africans/African Americans. My parents would always link African Americans to gang culture and thought there was no such thing as an educated black. Eddiewinslow is no different. Are you a fresh of the boat Eddie?
The 73% that get arrested get arrested for selling drugs, cops don't bust into homes to bust people smoking weed or snorting coke. They go after the big fish selling it.... I didn't know cops were after the end user of a $20 bag of weed
