No I said besides minorities what other races is affected by police brutality?


That's what this entire conversation has been on. I have been talking about minorities this entire time so I have not a clue why you would think that.

The only other race is "white people"

Can you provide evidence of this?

Its not a problem for white people.

I will single out white people because the statistics show that police brutality is more prevalent in minorities.

HOWEVER, I do acknowledge that white people can get killed by the police BUT its not a prevalent problem amongst white people like it is with minorities. White people are not the victims of police brutality like minorities are so its ignorant to sit up here and argue like police brutality is a problem for white people when its not.


White people are not racially profiled

White people are not stereotyped

White people are not the target of police brutality. Minorities are a target specifically minority men.

There is a very disturbing white privilege mentality on this board. Police brutality is not your problem. Its my brothers problem, its my fathers problem, its my family problem, etc. They have to worry about that NOT you.

So it happens to everyone but it's only a problem for minorities? Your victim complex is showing.

Ya know, when ya haven't seen one of these Soulflower black vs. white debates in a while you kinda forget what they are like.

Oh, and BTW. The media fules her fire by playing major bias in reporting this stuff.

Critics see racial 'double standard' in coverage of police shootings - Washington Times

I think we should just shoot all the white police officers and only have minority policemen. That will fix all of these problems for sure.

Its foolish to sit here and insist that an issue against minorities is also an issue white people have to go through on the same level as minorities.


Its ignorant and quite disrespectful of you to insist that.

Never said that. Said what I said and clearly explained the point I was making and it just went over your head.
