I can recommend watching the Netflix documentary 13th.


It might give you a better understanding of the reality of life in America.

The whole story is a complete fake anyway.


The guy didn't get injured at all, the burnt feet picture was copied from elsewhere.


What we have here is one moron trying to persuade other morons (no shortage in the USA) to set fire to their shoes while wearing them.


I call that ****ing criminal.

You're all expecting to make some sense of Americans but some 90% or more of the population are idiots who don't care if what they are doing or saying makes any sense at all.

Half of those are Trump supporters who don't consider facts as part of the equation for making decisions, choosing instead 'what they believe ' to be more important even when facts prove their beliefs wrong.

Most higher tech white collar crime (fraud etc) carried out by whites, most drug and street crime probably by blacks. You don't normally get shot by police for white collar crime.....

"Probably" That's something of an assumption there. I hope you can provide serious, impartial, and statistical evidence to back up that claim.

I contend that we are where we are with stuff like this in a large part because of assumptions like this.

What is your reference for this?
Wikipedia is not a reliable source, nor are extremist group websites.

What are the crimes for which people are incarcerated? What is the age profile? What is the general population profile? And if you are talking about the USA can you explain why it has one of the highest incarceration rates in the world?



Don't spout a "black people commit violent and drug crimes, white people don't" line without expecting to be shouted down and shown up to be a racist bigot.
