Study: 46% of americans think that discrimination against whites is = to that of minorities

[Insensitive]

I like how a thread involving the growing
belief among (White) Americans that they're somehow "victims" in 2014
of racial discrimination turns into one idiot derailing the thread
with trade mark Yahoo Comment Section sensationalism.

Ignore that idiot and focus on the issue at hand.

how are they ignored? if anything white crime goes grossly ignored by media. either way, it's not discrimination. there's no use in throwing black against white crime in the media because those guys get arrested and go to prison for the rest of their life. show me these black people that are going around killing cacs and getting off the hook, and i'll concede to your point.

Exactly!

I think white people perceive attempts to assist marginalized cultures as discrimination of white people. That's what all this is about... things like hiring quotas, preferential college admission for minorities, welfare, and any other form of socialism is what gets to them. I don't see much white discrimination at all...

Now, I think racism exists on all sides. Stereotyping is human nature, and without conscious effort or knowledge, that turns many people into racists.

No comments? I thought this summed it up nicely...

Google "Black on White Crime Ignored"

Can't forget about the all White on Black crime that was previously ignored throughout the majority of this country's history

I know, I know blacks are savages...

There is actually some interesting stuff in there about Islam and other subjects too but I wasn't able to read through it at work. Worth peeping.

But then again thread can't do #s without a title

I'll check out the article when I get home but does it explain or can anyone fill me in on exactly what is meant by discrimination in this sense? I've got numbers about how much discrimination objectively, verifiably, and tangibly affect black folks. I've never heard or seen an example of the opposite.

more like 100% of white americans or 46% of american population are scared out their fukking minds

This is pretty much it.

A lot of white people get when they see a black person use a bridge card or get a job they wanted.

And they try to make it a philosophical issue, like this implies the black guy got something he didn't deserve. I think they just need to nut up because you can never expect anything from the system. Those who rely on the system deserve what they get.

a simple review of statistics ought to fix this :youthink:

There's a study out there that showed white convicts received call-backs for jobs more than blacks without any criminal record.
During traffic stops, blacks are 2 times more likely to be arrested, 3 times more likely to be searched, and when they're arrested, 4 times more likely to experience the use of force.
12% of drug users in this country are black, but they make up 50% of the arrests for possession.

I could go on for days about the disproportionate studies in favor of white people, but let them live in the paranoid fantasy world. They'll slowly destroy their selves.

not surprising being that white people are a majority and were probably the majority of the people asked.

How do we let this happen. The internet is truly a double edged sword. On one hand, we have the capability to share information and set rally points at amazing speeds with great convenience, but ppl are too distracted by COD, Candy Crush and porn to care and many of the ones who care never leave the computer chair.
