Everett Mitchell on Best Policing Practices (title edited)

If the OP was constructive... we perhaps need to redefine what constructive means.

I mean couldn't we have just started with the man's claim rather than a crude suggestion that it amounts to 'groundwork' for a riot. Since it was nothing of the sort...

Sorry Si Man...

I think the previous post was constructive if not completely truthful. Had myself, Janelle, or any other member posted this same article under a different ethnicity(read, white, PI, or even Chinese I suspect) it wouldn't have taken this long for a title change. Better yet, it probably wouldn't have made it past page one.

There is a clear difference on how threads are handled in this forum. It appears that it's okay to use rash generalizations towards entire demographics as long as they're applied to the minority races. In truth, the things said here right now(all black people want to be able to steal without consequence and black people just want to riot and loot) shouldn't be able to pass muster. And the excuse that we need to report shouldn't fly since whoever removed Janelle's post should have seen all the other ones as well. Why they're still up is beyond me.

Why should VJ be less racist than the rest of the world?

Considering that most of us brought a foreigner from a different country, why should we be more racist?

one of the first comments on the youtube page for this video is "Wal-Mart Loss Prevention personnel should be allowed to shoot shoplifters on sight. That way prosecutions won't be necessary."

these are the people who believe they have the constitution on their side. they're the only heros standing up for america. of course they think 'pc police' are silencing their wisdom.

I was the foreigner but what has that to do with race?

it's all they got, to take stuff out of context - slap an incendiary untruthful title on it and let the sheeple repost and repost and repost...

I've yet to see an actual Chinese Poster here in the CEHST sub-forum. Sure, they are up in the upper forums, asking questions, but not see em here in CEHST.

Just sayin....

As to the rest - I'm all for ANYONE (not just black people) stealing chinese-made crup from WalMart and Target.

Folks married to Chinese spouses get their feathers ruffled when a post is made about the people in China. I remember when the riots were going on in China and a thread was posted here. Really funny how that conversation went...

How do you survive day to day?

I was the foreigner but what has that to do with race?

As much as it has to do with someone of the Muslim faith...
