America's obsession with race will not lead to a sense of equality. If everytime you fill out a form you are forced to give them your assessment of your "ethnicity" - what ever the fuck that means, all you are doing is being made to think of yourself as black or white.gaffo wrote: ↑Fri Jul 31, 2020 2:42 amwhite now make up less than your claim - its around 60 percent of so - its not clear, due to most (all really) demographic changes in America are due to Latinos (who are mostly mixed (Mestizo (Amer Indian/White mix), then white (75/25)- not many black latinos (2? percent or so), but a few).Sculptor wrote: ↑Mon Jul 27, 2020 11:05 pmThis is a croc of fake bullshit.Impenitent wrote: ↑Mon Jul 27, 2020 4:44 pm

"Similarly, Black and Hispanic officers (compared with White officers) were more likely to fatally shoot Black and Hispanic civilians. This does not mean that there are department policies encouraging non-White officers to fatally shoot minorities. Rather, the link between officer race and FOIS appears to be explained by officers and civilians being drawn from the same population, making it more likely that an officer will be exposed to (and fatally shoot) a same-race civilian."
do your own research

Since the white population of the USA is 73% WHITE, then one would expect more whites to be killed by police than others.
There ought to be only 12% of shootings of black people, since that is the %age of blacks in the USA.
Sadly it is far more than that.
If there was racial equality yo umight expect there to be a similar amount of whites in prison.
But no the white population of gaol is not 73% but 24%; and the black prison population is not 12% but 34%.
the projection is that by 2040 "Whites will be a majority minority" whatever that means.
it means Trumpers go their panties in a bunch over Obama, and now fear non-WASPS - anyone that is not a WASP is not white to them -so an Italian or Spanard (both white of course), Catholic!!!!!!!!!!! is not "white".
Mexican? including the blond? - "she's a Catholic isn't she" - not white either!
IMO that 2040 date is a Trumper date, 25-percent of Latinos are white - the rest are not black nor american indian - they are mixed.
so IMO that date is more like probably 2300 or so before "whites" - both Cathoiic white Mexicans and WASP American Whites will not longer be the majory in America is the more accurate timeline.
People have to be treated equally if we are to get harmony.
"White" does not say anything about me.
And "black" should not say anything about anyone else. The rast of the bollocks from "hispanic" to "asian" is just a sort of negative vanity.
Children of "mixed backgrounds" are left wanting for identity.
I sat fuck identity. I am not part of your racial prejudice.
