Disgusted

Post Reply New Topic

I am so sad I am disgusted, I was reading a news article about the man (brown) killed by a police officer, ya know the one that was rioted over?, well anyways, many, if not most of the comments posted by others rang loudly of hate and bigotry, never mind the man killed or why, what disturbed me was the obvious bigotry I was seeing. apparently America has never left its dark ages. its sickening. seems the ability to be anonymous over the net helps bring out peoples true colors.

Its nice to know you all agree with the other side, buy not responding in like of me.
This is how others leave me to judge them, by how they do not respond.
I read the silence more loudly then the words, because thats all you leave me to interpret.

The thread would likely get more response in PPR; the content is a bit too heavy for the Random forum. Would you like me to move it?

Sure, thank you.

Probably no one has responded because many like myself won't know what you talking about. You haven't posted a link to this article and I don't know about this incidence you describe since I don't read or watch the news unless someone draws my attention to it.

It's kinda obvious that he's talking about the incident in which the young Black man was shot by White police in Ferguson Missouri. Makayla already started a thread on the subject (not that we cant have a second on other aspects of the issues involved). Havent followed it real closely either, but its hard not to be aware of it in a general way.

To the OP:Yes - you do see folks who have alot of toxins in their souls spewing it in the anon environment of the web. Don't know what one can say about it. Except the folks who make the most noise are not necessarily representative.

The internet provides an excellent environment for the weak to finally have the opportunity to play the role of the strong.

From the times of slavery the hatred displayed against black was more fear than anything else.

Fear of the obvious physical and reproductive prowess of a species unadulterated by the comforts of the 'white man's culture'.

Although obviously, not one of near the comfort we have now.

In real life, even in the deep south where i live; now that young African Americans are able to actually exercise their physical prowess that is
even stronger after being selected for as strong slaves in 'breeding history' if you will; including the reproductive advantages that the strong
always have over the weak no matter what culture a person is part of that is relatively free like the US is now, i.e. Northern Europe now, as well;
the great equalizer of human nature is finally set free as well as many young black males that did not have this basic human freedom before.

Still, wherever there is ignorance and weak men at core of heart and body, there is jealously, hatred, and any excuse like color against the truly strong
of human nature is just a crutch that covers up the real fear inside of those who fight against those truly stronger at core of human being success.

It is instinctual, it is real; no text book or culture will ever change the core of who is strong and who is not strong; that again is human nature.

And then there is homosexuality. Truly any strong man or woman, who does not fear his or her weakness in masculinity, femininity or intellect usually does not abuse the weaker ones who he or she sees to represent what they fear in themselves to be weak.

In other words as sadly as it is, fear in one's own shortcomings is what causes most of this phenomenon, and yes down to basic human nature success in reproduction by
the strong vs. the weak in mother nature is at core of this phenomenon.

Funny when humans think they are immune to human nature.

Anyway again, as mentioned earlier in this thread, the anonymous nature of the internet lets weak men and women pretend to be strong.

Simply put, one will not likely see anyone do this one on one; black and white in one room.

Mother nature rules in the real world.

Yes, I was a weak man once and can relate to the disadvantage and fears thereof.

But no longer that am I by far, far, far.

Struggle, adversity, success or failure, is what human being is all about.

No one by the end of life, is immune from that.

I live near Detroit, and when Detroit when bankrupt recently, a black person was on tv saying, "We will burn Detroit to the ground before the white man will get it back". There is a lot of racism in the Detroit area from people of all races.

In Detroit you can see a black person kill another or group of black people nearly everyday on the news. Seeing this, and seeing in Missouri, black people destroying a city, then one may develop feelings of prejudice; prejudice from fear.

Then you should have put more than just "Disgusted" on the subject line. Disgusted at what? Just disgusted alone doesnt tell anyone anything about the content of the thread. Unless the reader is particularly interested in you and what's got your drawers in a knot today or just bored they're unlikely to read further.

As far as this case goes, there has been nothing final as to who was right and who was wrong in the shooting itself. Police shootings are not all that uncommon and most of them are probably justifiable. I say that with at least some skepticism since I have a growing lack of confidence in law enforcement that pre-dates this incident. This shooting at least looks suspect but nothing is final yet.

Actually it would be harder for me to be aware of it since my TV is usually only turned on if there's something I want to watch and I haven't been to any news sites online recently. I'm not interested in the news as it's mostly bad and too much of it becomes depressing. I will look into the subject of this thread though since it's been brought to my attention.

I don't usually read the comments to articles since a lot of the people writing them come across as rude, arrogant and nasty, which I find irritating.

why did that cop have to kill an unarmed man? why did that cop have to empty his gun into his victim/mutilate him? don't they know how to drop somebody with one shot? what kind of training did this cop have in the first place? why did he try to provoke that man by disrespecting him [cursing at him] publically? i bet good money that cop would never act that foul towards a middle/upperclass white person. why did they have to display his bloody body in the street for four hours? why did they have to harrass journalists who were covering the situation? this is all no different than what happened during the worst of the civil rights struggle.
