Laramie,
...I just don't care about the issues you addressed.
Now, you see, this is discouraging. It is troubling that you and perhaps the majority of black Americans are not interested in advancing the "race" dialogue in a positive direction by tackling this issue of the
double standard. It is especially troubling that whites have been working towards reconcilation with blacks since the Emancipation Proclamation, the beginning of the 20th Century generally, and the middle of the 20th Century specifically. And it is ironic, too. All this hand wringing and self deprecation on the part of whites, and yet the black community is apathetic to
the double standard that whites have rasied on themselves.
You really ought to care. You really should. Because--and I am not advocating this--there is going to be a racial fight in this country, and it appears to be within a matter of years, or less. I, for one, do not wish this conflict on you, myself, my children, your children, or any of us. We really are supposed to be coming together in whatever way we can. (I say, take the Richard Pryor/David Chappelle route, and make light of our differences. It really brings folks together in an easier way.) Whether you want to believe it or not, there
are people in power trying to drive the two ethnic classes into this conflagration, whatever their terrible purposes are.
Sadly, I think you will continue to be apathetic to all attempts to open understanding on these fronts. I doubt that you looked at my Youtube video link to the video "A Conversation About Race," otherwise, you'd have more input here. (Link is here:
) And sadly, I think that the majority of blacks in this country will be apathetic to the urgent emergency that is befalling us all. And I think we will continue to see more instances where mobs of blacks will beat the hell out of white people, while a majority of black onlookers remain silent when questioned, and secretly cheer the mob on in their hearts.
Most people in the world have no time for any of this.
You really ought to make the time for it. Whites have.

Most of your post was based on fallacies and false assumptions. Example:: "It's okay for Blacks to get on the streets and talk about killing crackers". Nonsense. Blacks have been historically killed and arrested for militant association almost always without trial.
You are wrong. I would direct you to the ramblings of Louis Farahkhan for starters. Also, you stated that the New Black Panthers are no big deal. Let's just have a look at what they say. King Samir Shabazz in particular:
"You want freedom? You're gonna have to kill some crackers! You're gonna have to kill some of their babies!"
"You're about to be ruled by the black man, cracker."
"I'm about the total destruction of white people. I'm about the total liberation of black people. I hate white people. I hate my enemy....The only thing the cracker understands is violence....The only thing the cracker understands is gunpowder. You got to take violence to violence."This man gets on the street and says these things. What if a white man gets in the street, says these things, and is videotaped by the press? Think that white man would not be incarcerated?
Black americans are outraged at whites that a teenage black kid, sneaking around in a neighborhood to rob houses, who beat the hell out of a half mexican, was shot by that very same half mexican in defense. One shooting. And yet, you and others remain completely apathetic to the surge of black-on-white crime that has occurred in this country in the last two months, with black perpetrators stating "This is for Trayvon" after their crime. And you remain apathetic to those silly "irrelevant" Black Panthers...
New Black Panthers? They are a tiny, irrelevant, informal group whose significance has been magnified by right wing organizations to drum up antagonism and controversy. Ordinary Black people don't give a crap about them.
You're damned right black people don't give a crap about them. And so, the problem inflates because of the apathy of people like you.
I was browsing the тαℓмυd the other day, and came across this little number from Sanhedrin 57a: "When a Jєω murders a gentile, there will be no death penalty. What a Jєω steals from a gentile he may keep." So, I wonder, if black people are apathetic to the crimes of black people, does that mean they are sort of "тαℓмυdic" in their apathy to that crime? Christians, of course, are supposed to hold themselves to a higher standard than that.
In any event, here is video of Shabazz telling all the permissive non-outraged black people around him that they need to kill white babies. I encourage you to watch the 1.5 minute video, since you do not believe that hate speech from blacks exists on the street:
And here is an article by Malkin tackling the new hate movement coming out of that "irrelevant" New Black Panther Party, which you don't seem to care about. I encourage the followers of this thread to read the short article:

And finally, you have put forth many assertions and blanket statements that you do not back up. You have maligned Alaric and the majority of participants on this forum, backing up nothing. You should follow up your generalized statements with back up proofs if you seek relevance.
