i dont understand these stupid hashtags #racismgoesbothways isn't that promoting racism more? Anybody of any race can be racist, not just black/white. Also those kids are prob crack babies, straight ignorant trash. just because they r black has nothing to do with you as a black person you shouldn't take it so personal. each race has a certain group of negative people, black white middle eastern asain latino etc. how about #humanity being a human first seems to be forgotten.
with how I feel kill all racist they have no use in my opinion but I don't make the rules sooooo ohh well

white people are mad because black people are fighting back and giving them a taste of what we dealt with for generations. guess what white people welcome to the party hurts doesn't it? knowing your kind is being beaten like that and there isn't a damn thing you can do about it... knowing it couldv'e been you welcome to the damn party
He also didn't want slavery but it still happened, how far do you think people will be pushed before they fight back?
a couple years ago a young black man was killed at school on tape just for being black.. And they hide his body.. No one arrested. Then some white guy gets kidnapped, beat, and set free and now black people are the bad guys? I feel sorry for the kid but I'm glad there are people out there fighting back.
looks like you're unaware of the fact that it was white men who put an end to slavery (how kind of you to thank them)... and that the majority of free blacks owned slaves during the slave trade. so i guess when a black guy beats another black guy he gives him a taste of his own culture's medicine?
also, the islamic slave trade lasted for far longer, and killed many more people (both blacks and whites) but do you see anyone ever attacking people of that group bc of slavery now do you?
slavery is over and done with, instead of harping on the past, celebrate the fact that it was abolished and that there has been no better time to be a black person in the US. blacks dominate professional sports, the entertainment industry, and for the last 8 years the PRESIDENT has been black.
BLM (whose idological guru is a convicted cop killer on the FBI's most wanted list as a terrorist) is undoing all of the change and progress that MLK fought so hard for. he would be absolutely disgusted by this.
Slavery is over with, but that doesn't erase the memory of it they tell you about it in schools, what our ancestors have been through and use racial slurs to us they torture us, kill us, mock us, and you think we're going to be happy? you have no idea what we go through each day... although i'm not ghetto so i don't speak for the people who are. here's an example.. when my mom was a young woman she said while she was walking down the street 2 white men spat on her, caller her n**, and drove off. but that's nothing compared to what's happening today... you can downvote my comment if you want but point out something i said that isn't true
i never said forget it... i just said quit harping on it and using it as an excuse for white guilt.
oh really i have no idea? so when my family came from italy 60 years ago they never got called wops (a derogatory term for italians), spat on, or given the worst jobs and were underpaid. this also happened to many Polish people. blacks aren't the only group that has been mistreated so dont go claiming that just because im white my family hasn't had to deal with abuse or hate.
i never said black people dont have to deal with bad shit, because they obviously do. im saying dont use stuff that was corrected as an excuse to riot or beat up people with special needs. and it is true, there has been no better time to be black in the US. like I said, look at all the black people in pop culture, sports and politics who enjoy luxurious lives. this isn't a black vs white issue... it's the issue that people think violence is a reasonable reaction to stuff that happened a long time ago
@darkknight8909 i didn't say it was an excuse to beat up the kid i said it was bad that they did it to him but im happy they're fighting back if it was a white officer i would not have said anything at all
don't swat at a bees nest without expecting to get stung
When I read about this, I felt so hurt, pained and angered by this. I hope those 4 individuals suffer the consequences. Torturing a mentally disabled man should be given the death penalty.
Yeah I seen the video and it was horrible. What that guy did to that guy was not right. I understand how much anger and frustration he probably was in being as tho we live in a society that caters to whites. But this wasn't the way to go about it.
This wasn't a racial issue though... It was four predators taking advantage of a disabled kid they could bully. By automatically saying that it was only racially motivated you're ignoring the abuse and challenges disabled people face every day.
I realize, they thought he was an easy target do to the fact that he was mentally disabled. But, this did seem like a racially charged crime though as well, as they refer to him by racial slurs.
I'm not ignoring the struggles that the mentally disabled go through, and we will never know the true motives of the criminals because they won't tell us why, but many news outlets are reporting this story as a race thing because he voted for Trump, so it could probably be that too. Also, they targeted him because he is mentally disabled and is less likely to fight back. So I realize that it could be that too.
I'm tired of people beating each other up and being racist towards each other because that is counterproductive. That was the message of this myTake.
Meh, my heart goes out to the victim. But I don't have an issue with it in principal, given the twisted history of Black & White Americans, what goes around comes around. Cue white men on this site bitching about reverse racism.
That's an awful way of thinking? If you think or past of slavery and extreme racism towards black people is so bad, why are you justifying racism now? Its hypocritical and it will get people nowhere in life. Racism has in the past caused so many deaths, suicides, depression, poverty, and much more. Now you want to continue things like that because "Oh what comes around goes around". If we want to solve racism, for every race, we need to STOP racism, not continue it so black people can get revenge on white people. Racism still lives very well today, and people like you contribute to it..
Thank you for acknowledging this as many times it is black people telling us that we can't be victims of racism because where white and that does hurt do be dismissed like that.
It also hurts to see black men killed damn near everyday and then their children mocked for being fatherless, being racially profiled and watched in stores because no matter how well I'm dressed or who I'm with my skin color sends an alarm that and it's assumed that I might steal. It hurts to be black in america much more than being white. Now you feel a very small fraction of what we feel.
@nojokecarmichael True not only am I white but I'm not American either the black people in my country have their own set of problems. I'm not going to pretend like I know what's going on because I don't.
You guys are missing the point of this post. The point is not to dismiss black people, because I am black as well it is to say that attacking others for their race is also wrong and not okay and is in fact counterproductive.
Her title is implying that it's a popular belief that only white people can be racist, not that she personally thinks that only white people can be racist. It's really not uncommon to hear minorities say that about white people but in reality, minorities can be just a racist and disgusting. Racism isn't only native to one ethnic group.
Those 4 pieces of shit who did this to this poor man should be tied up, and tortured, and beaten to point of death.

Thank you for writing this. I've lately felt like no one felt the same empathy toward me that i felt toward them and it makes me feel like a human being again to see someone defend me when it's unpopular.
Ever notice when women fucked with gender roles and society and forced this unnatural feminist agenda that the world is getting more fucked up... well... everything has consequences girls... now pay for it
It's connected to Feminism because Feminism does it's best to co-opt other movements in it's effort to stay relevant and in power.
Their attempted redefining of racism to mean Power + Prejudice = racism therefore white people can't be racist. Is a major source of fuel for the worsening race relations in recent years, you can see it in Universities, News, BLM all over the internet. These kids bought into that shit, that it's oppressive white men that are responsible for the fact that their home life is so fucked up.

lol you're thinking too much. I did it so that you will see this and click on it.
And the racism saga continues
I hope not only that this opens eyes towards racism against whites but also doesn't somehow allow someone to antagonize black people, either.
with how I feel
kill all racist they have no use in my opinion
but I don't make the rules sooooo
ohh well
white people are mad because black people are fighting back and giving them a taste of what we dealt with for generations.
guess what white people
welcome to the party
hurts doesn't it? knowing your kind is being beaten like that and there isn't a damn thing you can do about it... knowing it couldv'e been you
welcome to the damn party
I think fighting fire with fire is counterproductive. Martin Luther King Jr. wouldn't want this.
He also didn't want slavery but it still happened, how far do you think people will be pushed before they fight back?
a couple years ago a young black man was killed at school on tape just for being black.. And they hide his body.. No one arrested. Then some white guy gets kidnapped, beat, and set free and now black people are the bad guys?
I feel sorry for the kid but I'm glad there are people out there fighting back.
But Malcom x would've

although i'm not ghetto so i don't speak for the people who are.
here's an example.. when my mom was a young woman she said while she was walking down the street 2 white men spat on her, caller her n**, and drove off.
but that's nothing compared to what's happening today... you can downvote my comment if you want but point out something i said that isn't true
I'm going to make a post about the charleston shooter as well because that is also messed up.
i never said forget it... i just said quit harping on it and using it as an excuse for white guilt.
oh really i have no idea? so when my family came from italy 60 years ago they never got called wops (a derogatory term for italians), spat on, or given the worst jobs and were underpaid. this also happened to many Polish people. blacks aren't the only group that has been mistreated so dont go claiming that just because im white my family hasn't had to deal with abuse or hate.

So basically you're happy to see violence?
When I read about this, I felt so hurt, pained and angered by this. I hope those 4 individuals suffer the consequences. Torturing a mentally disabled man should be given the death penalty.
Yeah I seen the video and it was horrible. What that guy did to that guy was not right. I understand how much anger and frustration he probably was in being as tho we live in a society that caters to whites. But this wasn't the way to go about it.
Is the message black people can be racist or that racsim can be anymore
Because if the first, who ever said blacks can't be racist?
If the second, everyone is racist... yea we do know that
There are people out there who think it isn't true.
This wasn't a racial issue though... It was four predators taking advantage of a disabled kid they could bully. By automatically saying that it was only racially motivated you're ignoring the abuse and challenges disabled people face every day.
I realize, they thought he was an easy target do to the fact that he was mentally disabled. But, this did seem like a racially charged crime though as well, as they refer to him by racial slurs.
It wasn't motivated by his race. It was motivated by him being an easy target because he's disabled.
I'm not ignoring the struggles that the mentally disabled go through, and we will never know the true motives of the criminals because they won't tell us why, but many news outlets are reporting this story as a race thing because he voted for Trump, so it could probably be that too.

I'm tired of people beating each other up and being racist towards each other because that is counterproductive. That was the message of this myTake.
I understand that and you know I never shy away from saying something is racially motivated but this one screams disability at me.
They didn't say fuck disabled people and fuck Steven hawking. Don't be a liar.
Meh, my heart goes out to the victim. But I don't have an issue with it in principal, given the twisted history of Black & White Americans, what goes around comes around. Cue white men on this site bitching about reverse racism.
@rjroy3 lol ouch you struck a nerve.
Good : )
@rjroy3 that was sarcasm
Clearly you can't read sarcasm.
@HonestWhiteGuy that's the best you got?
That's an awful way of thinking?

@HonestWhiteGuy @rjroy3 don't take the bait. Probably the one pink downvote everyone is getting. Just another racist /ignore.
@JiminsHoe the revolution must happen. Reperations must be made.
There is no reverse racism, it's just "racism".
It's okay though, you're just an edgy teenager. In 10 years, you'll look back on yourself and cringe over how hateful you were.
Thank you for acknowledging this as many times it is black people telling us that we can't be victims of racism because where white and that does hurt do be dismissed like that.

I find it somewhat hypocritical that you said it's a "two way street".
I. e. in the beginning in your title you're implying that only Europeoids can be/are racists.
What? 🙃 Can't whites be racist against blacks and blacks be racist against whites? That's what I was implying.
I know what you were talking about in your mytake, however, take a 2nd look at you title.
That's what I'm getting at.
Her title is implying that it's a popular belief that only white people can be racist, not that she personally thinks that only white people can be racist. It's really not uncommon to hear minorities say that about white people but in reality, minorities can be just a racist and disgusting. Racism isn't only native to one ethnic group.
At least, that's what I got from the title.
@Elarra I understand what she meant to say, I'm just pointing out she could've made a better title.
This is ABSOLUTELY disgusting. These four are among the dumbest people I have ever come across.
Those 4 pieces of shit who did this to this poor man should be tied up, and tortured, and beaten to point of death.
Thank you for writing this. I've lately felt like no one felt the same empathy toward me that i felt toward them and it makes me feel like a human being again to see someone defend me when it's unpopular.
... this is nothing. Come to South Africa and see black racism in all its glory.
I know. :(
Ever notice when women fucked with gender roles and society and forced this unnatural feminist agenda that the world is getting more fucked up... well... everything has consequences girls... now pay for it
Women destroyed good masculinity.
This has nothing to do with feminism nor masculinity.
What does any of that have to do with the Take?
It's connected to Feminism because Feminism does it's best to co-opt other movements in it's effort to stay relevant and in power.

Racist black people don't give a s***. And an alarmingly high number of blacks are racist.
I see that. Look at the comments.
no I disagree, just stop thinking about race and racism will stop :)
Thank you for sharing a great MyTake of yours very well done.
tl : dr
That was a travesty and those kids should be ashamed of theirselves.
This is great. Very good take!
