Can't cross a bridge till I get to it friend.
Tell me, does your father know you hate yourself?
It's hilarious to me that you would accuse me of writing from a simplistic standpoint when every excuse you make comes from an oversimplified projection of the truth. Look numb-nuts, nobody who thinks a black guy is about to rob him thinks that just based on his shirt. Numerous other factors come into play. It's called context. What's his gait? Is it menacing? Does he have nervous eyes? And are they looking at you? What time of day is it? Are you an easy target? How does he carry himself? Is he at ease and in pace with the rest of the world walking by? Or does he appear a vessel of dormant destruction that could erupt at any moment?
I generally never wish harm on anybody, but a part of me hopes you get robbed and beaten by a gang of thugs. Black, white, Hispanic, doesn't matter, just as long as you get your ass kicked simply because you wanted to pretend we live in a world where there aren't obvious warning signs to a potentially dangerous encounter.No more of that talk, or I'll put the leeches on you.Comment -
How do i hate myself? you dont even know 'who' i am. to make that statement
And you shouldnt make assumptions about me... or what i have been through, based on a few statements i have made...
I dont know what makes you think you are entitled to getting all 'holier than thou' over there... based on little facts and more personal opinion...
when you want to have an enlightened discussion, feel free to PM me. If you want to name call and make lots of wild accusations, we can continue to talk here...Comment -

Do your instincts tell you that the white police officer walking down the street is going to harass you?
I mean no offense but this is what is wrong with the world today all white people think that blacks are thugs and bad tippers, and all black people think that whites are all racist and trying to hold them down.
I really do not see any difference in your viewpoint or madcaps view point. You accuse him of stereotyping and than you make the stereotype that all white police officers treat blacks differently than whites.
Both races are equally racist only difference is that it has somehow become unacceptable for a white man to be racist while it is ok for a black man to be racist.Comment -
oj got away with murderOkay obviously if the entire reason for your wealth is crime you will probably go to jail (Madoff, Enron, mafia), I was really referring to ppl who were legitimately rich outside of their crimes and then separately committed crimes which sent them to jail, not ppl who were sent to prison for the crimes that made them rich.
I see guys like Gilbert Arenas, Vick, Burress, OJ (though he temporarily was free he ended up getting like 30 years for trying to get his stolen football stuff back
) getting tossed in jail for years .
he killed two WHITE people and never went to jail for it. he went to jail 12 yrs later for armed robbery a diff crime
arenas never went to prison. he spent 30 days in a halfway house. thats getting tossed in jail for years????
try opening your eyesComment -
I never said it was a black/white thing with police. I said minorities vs police...
I wouldn't know what all white people think, i wouldn't know what all black people think, and i wouldn't know what [insert group of people] think...
nor do i try to act like it...
i only know what maverick22 thinks... and that is the only viewpoint i represent...
So no... in order to say that in society it is [group a] vs [group b] ALL[or most] the time, would imply i feel i could see the point of view of every member of any given group of people, and that i don't profess to be able to doComment -
Only a person who hates himself can be so dismissively engaging. Why you hate yourself I don't know. Maybe you can't satisfy your woman, maybe you've never reached your potential, failed to live up to your own expectations in life, or maybe your fathers, whatever, but I've seen your kind a thousand times over. Your the kind who would accuse someone else of being "holier than thou," when that someone else is openly admitting he's as lowly as everyone else.
Don't you see it?
See I've readily admitted I'm guilty of stereotyping. And hence, I'm admitting I'm holier than nobody. You on the other hand, seem to dismiss the entire idea of stereotypes as some sort of uncivilized, uneducated concept of a barbaric past, and that anyone engaging in such a practice today must be a beast, and you therefore, the crusader against stereotyping, are holier than the rest of us for participating in such a base and uncultured practice.
And I'm entitled to these thoughts because of the demeaning and belittling nature of your rhetorical questions. If you're going to be so quick to jump to conclusions, to try and deflect an entire line of reasoning with some judgmental bullshit of another's character, well then, you open yourself up to be judged in return. Had you come to me with respect and friendship, then perhaps we would have seen eye to eye this very day. But you didn't. You attempted to dismiss my thoughts with an insulting quip simply because you don't want to have to think about the possibility that I might be right. And why don't you want to have to think about that possibility?
Because in your head you have incarnated this wonderfully beautiful projection of yourself: this man who doesn't stereotype; hoping this super-human character trait will somehow make-up for all your other failures in life. And to allow yourself to admit that you do stereotype, well that would mean you have to face the reality of your inadequacies, and well, no man really wants to do that does he?
What I'm saying to you is do some push-ups, lose some weight, start bagging some hotter chicks and living up to your potential, and then maybe you'll have the courage to admit to yourself that the world can be an ugly fuking place sometimes, and pretending it's not helps no one.No more of that talk, or I'll put the leeches on you.Comment -
I apologize if that offended you in any way I assumed that since the topic of the OP's discussion was a black/white issue and that we were arguing the comparison of law enforcement to KKK members that minorities was referring to the black minority group.
Police mistreat many different minority groups on a daily basis, white trailer trash, mexicans, blacks, unemployed, drug/alcohol addicted, teenagers, etc. but this does not make them comparable to the KKK they are basically trying to do their job efficiently and target groups who are more likely to be committing crime.Comment
