<p>What the hell kind of argument is that? “You’re scared of being physically hurt? At least people aren’t trying to make you learn about black men!”</p>
<p>Amarkov, the crime stats are based on percentages. Just type in black on white crime. there is some stuff on it thats interesting. Blacks commit 36.5% of lethal violent crimes, more than any other race even though they are a minority, and whites are victims to 13.8% of all black lethal violent crimes. Whites commit less of the lethal violent crimes, 32.8% and only 7.6% are black.</p>
<p>worried were gonna hurt him. lol no, he is one of the coolest kids i know </p>
<p>i’m glad you,uh, know what he’s going through and can speak for him matttt, because you are black,you know.</p>
<p>No nil, pointless argument is that we don’t learn about the great black men who made elevators safer because that drastically changed society. That definitly makes sense to learn about that</p>
<p>I don’t know skyscrapers were made possible because of safe elevators. The skyscrapers contributed to the development of cities and created the america we know today. as in we shifted from an agricultural to an industrial civilization.</p>
<p>Furthermore, you only take one of my examples. What about Ida B. Wells, of course you don;t mention her. Good job! Way to stimulate your mind!</p>
<p>BTW, Most of that black crime is black on black. So you have very little to worry about. genius.</p>
<p>I made my argument legitimatly nil. I think if we grew up in the same area and have the same money and grades, your “exerience” is not much different than mine. You then gave me examples of times you like to pull the race card because your social life is a failure.</p>
<p>I’ve been reading this argument and I decided to make an account just to say that nil’s wrong.</p>
<p>You then gave me examples of times you like to pull the race card because your social life is a failure. </p>
<p>look, my social life is not the question here.
I do have friends, I do have a “social life” so to speak. And all my arguments are not about social life. You just dismissed them. I already explained to you that I rarely if ever “pull the race card”
but you know what /you seem to always pull the “white, upper class card”
.</p>
<p>nil, when did i say most black crime is not black on black. i only said that blacks hurt more whites than white hurts blacks. Along with being a social failure, your now a reading comprehension failure. Nice. </p>
<p>THat would have to be a very in depth class to learn about every little detail that helped cities grow. The man who created the elevator is not even mentioned much. </p>
<p>I put Ida B Wells with “all the other major black figures” and we do learn about her when we learn about womens suffragists. She is studied just as much as anyone else, would you like a whole course devoted to her or something.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That’s because people don’t go around making racist jokes about your race.</p>
<p>What the hell is the white upper class card?</p>
<p>amarkov, “white men can’t jump”. that is a movie</p>
<p>Imagine the uproar if someone made “black men don’t work”</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>The movie is about a white man conquering black racism against him. Before picking examples, make sure they actually support your point.</p>
<p>amarkov, I’m talking about the title. do you think a movie called “black me don’t work” would ever even come close to getting released? No because the black community will never let race go. Racial issues will always be here because of this.</p>
<p>Along with being a social failure, your now a reading comprehension failure. Nice.
once again, you display your immaturity and inability to argue without insulting me. Congrats!!!</p>
<p>I doubt that blacks hurt more whites than vice versa? Do you have statistics? probably not.
As for african American figures and their place in history,please go read LIes your teacher told you by James W. Loewen. Stop wasting my time. Read!</p>
<p>The white upper middle class card
you feel entitled to catalog, qualify, and disregard my expetiences because you are a priveleged white,middle class boy.</p>
<p>You are portrayed favorably in most television and media</p>
<p>Your ancestors were never slaves</p>
<p>You gain a job over another equally qualified black person.</p>
<p>When you buy a car, you will recieve a fair price, unlike most black people.</p>
<p>You go to a nice school in the suburbs, never having seen or experienced poverty.</p>
<p>When you grow up, you will probably be an upper-middle class,white, surburbite who has if not everything,more than most. Enjoy! your advantage.</p>
<p>when did he ever play that card?</p>
<p>as for the white man can’t jump–
that movie refrences the white man’s physical ability</p>
<p>the black men don’t work sends a whole different messsage.</p>
<p>can’t-means the white man is not able to</p>
<p>don’t- means the black man is not expected to work or doesn’t want to.</p>
<p>this is not anapt example. but, then again when have you ever given an apt example?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Except white men are not actually discriminated against because black people think they can’t jump. Black people are actually discriminated against because white men think they don’t work. There’s a difference.</p>
<p>phoshizzle, go look back through all his posts and think about it. i will waste no more words.</p>
<p>lol, my ancestors were never slaves. Yeah, my ancestors helped fight the British to get this country. </p>
<p>Ill do you</p>
<p>Upper class, black kid
- Acts as if he was a slave
- Every white person is a racist to him
- Blames lack of job on race
- AND you said you were upper class too I believe, so you go to a nice school in the suburbs and have as much experience as I do dealing with poverty</p>
<p>When you grow up, you will most likely be a political activist like al sharpton, who pulls the race card any chance he gets and believes that blacks should be ahead of everybody in everything. Good luck!!</p>
<p>You want to know the difference between being an upper class white kid and an upper class black kid?</p>
<p>An upper class black kid looks different than most of his peers.</p>
<p>An upper class black kid learns at school that racism against him is funny.</p>
<p>An upper class black kid has to deal with idiots like you, who can’t understand why he would possibly have a different experience than you.</p>
<p>Yes, us white kids are really all racist and evil… POOR,POOR, Black upper class kids.</p>
