Racist, or naw?

[SalixIncendium]

I kind of like being in a demographic nobody would suspect.
Now I just have to think what crime I want to commit.

Loitering?

 

[Kirran]

Of course there are..is it inherently evil to acknowledge facts?

Speaking as a biologist, no there aren't.

 

[Audie]

Speaking as a biologist, no there aren't.

I suppose this now requires a working definition
of "different".

Are sinodont / sundadont different?

 

[Audie]

Loitering?

No profit in that.

 

[Twilight Hue]

Agreed.

Would you go on to say that:

The Brick Chucker who throws a brick at someone because of their race has committed a worse crime than:

The Brick Chucker who throws a brick at someone for anyone other reason?

Remember the Reginald Denny beating?

Don't tell me that wasn't racially motivated. You know? It's horrible tragic and sad but it happens.

People get whacked and mutilated for all sorts of reasons. Look at what's going on in South Africa when it comes to race.

The Dark Side of human nature.

Well it's differences in frequency of a dentition pattern between population.

An elderly Hispanic man was attacked with a brick and told to go back to mexico. Clearly a racist hate crime, correct?
Except that the perpetrator was a black woman; someone that many would claim can't be racist. How would they characterize this occurrence, especially without the 'privilege' factor? Do you suppose this crime "blue screened" the brains of SJWs?

Strawmanning SJWs aside, it seems pretty racist to me, sure.

 

[SalixIncendium]

No profit in that.

Aggravated loitering?

 

[Audie]

Aggravated loitering?

That might be fun. How do you do it?

I never made the claim that crime is never racially motivated.

I asked why racially motivated crimes are should be aggravated simply because they are racially motivated.

You didn't even come close to answering my question.

I probably didn't make things clear. I took it as aggravating individual crimes weither over race or what not to lay indirect blame on those who had nothing to do with the issue is counterproductive. Apologies if I misunderstood your comment.

I'm fairly confident that if you're ever the victim of a racially motivated crime, you'll consider it more grievous than a similar crime with no racial component.

Why?

I was assaulted by a caucasian who called me, well,
never mind what he said, it was racist. Racially motivated?
No. Target of opportunity.. I dont know how his motivation would make me feel
better or worse.

Earlier, in college, someone wrote CHINK on my dorm door.
Not a crime, but made me cry.

 

[Epic Beard Man]

Well actually anyone who writes anything that is not of their property is vandalism which is definitely a crime.

 

[Kangaroo Feathers]

Why?

Because I've encountered your style of rhetoric before.

 

[CruzNichaphor]

Because I've encountered your style of rhetoric before.

That's not an answer - it's a deflection.

It also reflects that you have no response.

I asked you a direct question; either answer it or don't bother responding to me.

Pretty sure that would be considered a crime in plenty of places. Whether a prosecutable one is another matter.

It's a perfectly legitimate answer. Sorry you don't like it, but there it is. No deflection at all. I'm open to the possibility that I have made an unfair assumptions about your character, but after having this conversation for the last 20 years from both "sides", forgive me if I'm pretty confident about the types of people it attracts.

Also, as they guy who thinks evidence isn't required before making grand sweeping claims, I'd hold off on criticising the basis for other people's opinions, maybe? FWIW, the blatant hypocrisy and defensiveness rather reinforces my point about having encountered your style of rhetoric before. It's exactly the sort of thing I was expecting from you.

In reference to the writing on my dorm door, I patiently
set out to find out who did it. (matched the writing)

So of course, I confronted him, in a non confrontational way
it that makes sense. Others were present. He admitted
it right away, said he was very sorry, didnt know why
he did such a stupid thing.

I grew up with a very negative attitude toward the British,
and the Japanese. Both of those changed while I was at
U. A British professor, and I thought, what are you doing?
You've nothing against him. And so right away, I decided
I wont feel that way.

The Japanese did great harm to my family, and so
when I saw a Japanese girl in class, I decided to go
sit by her. And we are still friends! She is just the
nicest lady. She told me that her grandfather had
served in the Japanese army in China. We were
both crying and hugging eachother.

Those are my stories about racism.
