    haha oh dear.... :D that's just brutal. To be honest, I would never have guessed he was 15. He seems pretty mature.

    Have you discovered within all the statistics you cite that people who pay undue attention to statistics are the first to lose their humanity?

    Of course you shouldn't be ok with it. Get that racial distinction garbage out of your head as quickly as possible. It's too bad you got robbed, but it happens all the time, and it doesn't say anything about your neighborhood or the people who live there. I've lived in all kinds of neighborhoods...rich and poor....white and black...whatever. The only place I happened to get robbed was in a college dorm room by a fellow student. What does that mean? It means I got robbed...that's it.

    Don't make the mistake of thinking your incident is significant. It's not. Move on. If it happens again, then maybe consider moving. But for now...move on.

    Not trying to get all Yoda on you, but hate can creep up on you, and before ya know it, you're shaving your head and wearing goofy suspenders and boots. I've seen it happen to people I'd never ever suspect.
    I hope I get to read more of your posts :)

    Is it wrong to find it funny that someone named Malcolm X was just robbed by a black guy?

    I knew someone would point out the irony in that before I got here.

    the issue is that had a white person come into his home and stolen money, he most likely would not have posted "A white male broke into my place..."

    sucks that you got robbed, i just find it annoying when people only make a distinction of race when its a person of color doing it.

    I find statements like this EXTREMELY ANNOYING.
    The fucking guy was black! Ut oh, do not point out a description of him. Thats racist! Fucking Stupid.

    Sorry for making five posts in a row but why are you all giving this guy a hard time?
    That is a 100% true statement. Stats or not its true. And speaking up about it does say you are racist at all. It just the truth.
    People get all bent about racial profiling, why? If the majority of people who are commiting robberies in a certain area happen to be black, that's not a fucking coincidence. Who do you think the cops are gonna look for? A all white irish male? Wake up people.
    I am far far far from a racist, I just have the balls to tell it like it is.

    Sorry guys, this kinda suff bothers me.

    It's not a true statement at all to say that "the minority is the majority of the problem in the U.S." In a certain neighborhood, of course the majority of crime could be committed by a certain race...and if you can find stats on that, I would bet you $100 that race is the one that makes up most of the population in that area, and not the minority.

    As for the racial profiling, it's completely irrelevant to the statement that "the minority is the majority of the problem in the U.S."...that statement stands on garbage, nothing else.

    so after reading through all of this shit...and sorry but I am SERIOUSLY BORED and that was the only reason I read through it...

    am I the only one who is calling "SHENANIGANS" on Malcolm_X ??

    the subsequent posts in this thread lead me to believe that he was hoping to get some of us in a weird racism/violence thread debate.

    wrong room, I guess.

    also - his statements about his views, and what happened don't gel together.

    I sniffs it, and I calls it...buuuuuulllshit.

    and now I am out of here...

    wait a minute this person just got attacked ,he described the person to be a black male is that wrong to do ? i don't get what the beef is about ,i'm sure if he would of been spanish or white he would of stated that or am i wrong ? ...


    Well no doubt the cops would of asked for a description, and the op would of said 'black male'. However, whether that has any relevence on this board is what is being debated about.

    Anyway Malcom x has been through a traumatic experience, we shouldn't start laying into him because of 2 words 'black male'. We should be sympathetic and hope he is alright.

    Hope your alright. Chin up.

    Seriously, the guy seems nice and he seemed very upset that he was even thinking like that David Duke guy...

    I guess some of these people forgot he was the one that was attacked in his own HOUSE!!!

    No, but like we know him, my family does. It just pisses me off, because I'm a white person (Obama supporter) and I've grown up with black people all my life, but when this shit happens my mouth turns into David Duke and I don't know whether I should be okay with that or not.

    no, you should not be ok with it.
