I'm arguing against all the deflective bullshit in this thread. There's a lot of people very sure that nothing shows it's racially motivated, when the simply act of violently beating a black woman within an inch of her life in america, is already plenty of evidence that it could be racially motivated, and people need to understand that.
The truth is that black people are more quickly responded to with violence than others. If you want to ignore that unless you have somebody dropping n-bombs, then you're just choosing to ignore this reality.
It can easily be argued his repetitive, "I said please" is more anger / snapping than racism.
Just like I have no problem saying when the police beat or kill an innocent black person, I have no problem saying it here. This was probably at least somewhat racially motivated.
Then what discussion are you looking to have? All actions and words are filtered through a social net, so every action with a person will have a degree of hate or negative perception. Should the idea be to claim racially motivated for all acts, then? Where is the cut off or is there even one?
The argument is that it would be MUCH MORE of a deterrent if she was a white woman, which is true. Not that it would be a COMPLETE deterrent.
Okay well maybe now you're starting to understand the mental dilemma almost all black people are going through every single day. Do you think we want to think every bad thing someone does to us is racial motivated? Of course we don't, but we usually think it is, because it so OFTEN is. We don't really have a choice. We still respond case by case like all people do it, but when 99% of the cases usually go a certain way, it starts to color your judgement, and you become jaded. That's just reality.
No, I don't think he's justified in violence obviously. What I do think is that there can be reasons outside of race judging by what we know in the video of why he would've attacked her.
My point was that it's a difficult question I regrettably don't have an answer to, and that's the nature of this life. That should have been obvious with my statement.
I'm not pretending, I'm fully aware of all the racism and bigotry black people deal with and how white people get away with it with clever wording and deception. That said, I think in this very scenario it seems incredibly unlikely this was fueled by her race.
I could ask you the same thing for your perception on this matter.
Now I know you are full of such absolutely bullshit.
Who said I was certain? I'm just pretty sure. And I've already explained it numerous times. When 99% of situations are at least somewhat racially motivated, it makes you jaded, and you tend to be able to guess how these things come about. We have 400+ years of evidence to back us up. But it's still difficult because no one wants to think everything bad that ever happens to a black person is because of racism. This guy just being crazy and angry, and he would have done this same thing to any woman of any color would be "better", as horrible as that sounds.
While I don't believe from just the video that race is the primary factor, though I'm leaning it to be a factor, you make a really good point with the bolded. I started thinking of all the racist white women videos that have cropped up in the past two(?) years. None of those racists have been body slammed for it, though they sure as heck deserve it.
Because of what he laid out in his post that you said didn't answer your question.
Alright? And why don't you read that sentence again and tell me how that contradicts anything I've said.
The person you are quoting has already said that they understand the realities of racism for black people in America, so it's very odd that they would make this statement, and that you would have to respond with this to educate them about this reality that they claim to understand. And even then, I also already said exactly what you just said to them before they made that statement.
....Yes, subpar. I am certain that it is LIKELY this is racially motivated. Great job.
