Dude you don't think "for every 1 black guy there is 10 that will cut you or steal your wallet" is racist. There's literally nothing you will find racist, lol.

I keep saying it and you keep ignoring it.

If I were a white guy, subject to much crime committed against me by black men, I may not think that statement is racist. That's really as clear as I can make it for you. Would I say it? No, I would not. It's not what I believe.

So, can you answer my previous post please? Curious.

There's honestly no point of me trying to explain anything if you can't even admit that, that comment is a racist comment. You are still trying to justify it, lol. The person who said it was not a 10 year old white girl who was raped by 10 black dudes.

So if 99% of people make this comment, it is racist. But you are explaining the POV of 1% of peoples based on their experiences?

Well sure but I think your percentages are off but that's neither here nor there.

Well, for me, it is a racist statement. For sure...I'd never say it because I don't feel that way.

But for others, it may not be and that's their opinion based on their own personal experience. Who are you or I to judge?

Can you answer the question I posed in post #158 please?

Are stats and facts racist? City I live in most crimes are committed by blacks. 9-1 Does that make it a racist statement. No, just a fact

It's either racist or not. Statistics show that there are not 10 black guys who'll cut you for every one good black guy. You really have a weird set of views. Like mental views.

So 96%? 93%? but the point is you think the comment is racist.

Do we think the poster who said the statement was robbed and beaten everyday by blacks? Probably not but I guess it is possible. If so, my condolences to him...

So where you live 90% of black people will cut you or steal your wallet? That's an interesting fact. Where do you live? Nigeria?

While I agree with you, those numbers seem insanely and unbelievably high ( I can't imagine them being even close to true) , he isn't saying 90% of black people commit crimes. He is saying 90% of crimes are committed by black people in his area. I'd have to guess there is no way that is true, unless the population is 90% black.

I hear what you are saying but StevieRay is dumb and is not even talking about the quote correctly. StevieRay turned it in to 9 out of 10 crimes. The original quote was 10 out of 11 black guys.

In the same sense, Michael Jordan's comments about hating white people are not racist because it was based on a negative personal experience. Is that correct?

I agree. It's a completely different scenario. I also agree the 10/11 was racist.

Doesn't surprise me one bit. Too bad the nba isn't going to fuck with the best player ever, just that simple. Unfortunately there is double standard that exists in this situation. I wouldn't doubt that he is racist one bit, nor would i care if they took his team.

I'm interested to hear the NBA position! face)(*^%

They do Ban Jordan after he stated>>>> "I considered myself a racist at the time. Basically, I was against all white people." Not a recorded statement as was Sterlings....... Or the NBA allows an admitted Black racist Jordan to own a Team while a recorded White racist Sterling is banned....... Money on both sides here so the ole "Money Talks" won't apply!

Never said it wasn't. Just said certain people may not think so based on personal history.
