think it sucks that white liberals have convinced black people that any setback in life is a result of racism. Black people didn't always think this way.
That’s not the discussion here

You're the one who called Pickens a thug, correct?
You know that I call white people “thugs”, too, when they act like them, right?

Yea gonna have to disagree Foo institutional racism def still exists. Now on a societal level I'm not sure but there is def still some racism. But I still stand by and say fields shat on real racism and people that are hurt by it when he used it as a reason to leave and not admit it publicly. He hid behind the race card.

You are living in a fantasy world. You're going to lecture black people on how institutional racism doesn't exist?

Like me an example of when that's happened, if you don't mind.

Practically everything. Look at how the blacks are treated in the justice system compared to whites. Hell, how many unarmed black men have to be murdered in cold blood with the police rarely being held accountable. Employment, housing, healthcare, education, etc. Take your pick. The disparity in almost every sector is astounding.
Have we improved a great deal? Of course, but that doesn't mean institutionalized racism no longer exists.

Employment

education
quote:You're going to have to point to specific examples of where an actual institution has inherent racism built in to it because so far you haven't provided any examples of actual racism. Like I said, we've got laws on the books that make racism illegal.

If you think I'm going waste my time arguing this with a dumb, ignorant bastard like you, then you've got another thing coming. You are ignorant as shite and you need to educate yourself, but what should I expect from a Trump lover. You support a racist president, so it doesn't surprise me that you don't think racism is a problem in this country.

I think I finally understand the hate for fromm by a few dudes on here has more to do with him being a white redneck beating out a promosing young black man than the actual level of play.

That said, racists exist but institutional racism doesn't. It'd be against the law and lawsuits would abound.
Like I said, if you want to say it's a problem, and especially since you believe practically all institutions are racist, you should have no problem pointing to specific examples where actual institutions are being racist rather than individuals.

I'd love nothing more than for Fromm to be killing it as the best QB in America. Sadly, he isn't. I also couldn't care less what color the QB is, as long as he's far better than Fromm. Your point is well made. Touche'.

At least we agree on Trump being God fricking awful.

This isn't the politics forum, and why would I bang my head against the wall trying to convince someone as ignorant as you of anything. One only needs to see your ridiculous and slavish defense of Fromm to know that it would be a waste of time. I could give you a thousand sources that show the evidence of institutionalized racism, you will ignore it.

Ah, the old I have black friends argument. The defense of nearly every racist. His history of racist statements and acts are well documented. Look it up. It has nothing to do with being a Republican. There are liberal and conservative racists.
