Racial bias is a problem.

You saying that if you were a policeman you would be more suspicious and take quicker action against black people is a textbook and PERFECT example of this.

Bias: prejudice in favor of or against one thing, person, or group compared with another, usually in a way considered to be unfair.

Racism: prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior.

African Americans commit more crimes statistically. If the cop is more suspicious but treats the suspect with respect and due process then there is nothing wrong with that. The police officer is doing their job. Is it unfair? Of course. Life is unfair. When I got pulled over when I was younger cops always gave me tickets. Now they are more tolerant as I am older, etc. Biases will always exist and life will frequently be unfair. You snowflakes need to chill with all this equality crap. It is BS.

Yeah you just described institutional racism. Congrats. Regardless of statistics, all people should be treated equally. A policeman should not be more suspicious of a black person than a white person, not least because THE CRIMES OF OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAPPEN TO HAVE THE SKIN COLOR OF YOU HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH WHETHER YOU WILL COMMIT A CRIME. This is why we have police racism. Yes, it is unfair. That is a bad thing, right? You are acting like life being unfair is just part of life even when we can help make that fair.

Also, equality is just a snowflake thing? You think equality is BS? That is probably the most racist thing you have said.

That is just not practical. Racism is belief that one's race is superior. The cop could be black and still arrest the black perp. NBA is 75% black, most scouts go to black neighborhoods and schools to recruit. Does that make them racist vs. whites? I honestly don't know why I waste time with bad luck and you. In your eyes I am racist and you know what, that is fine. Life will never be fair. Everyone will always have some sort off advantage or disadvantage. I cannot reason with the illogical. I like that you are an idealist but you reality just does not, has not ever and will never exist.

Do you realize that even lobsters have hierarchies as do rats. It is just how we the animal species behave.

Pointing out that Trump is racist has zero to do with whether or not you are racist.

I just told you that I am just as racist as he is. Everything he had stated while running his campaign I found absolutely zero wrong with it.

Whether or not you judge yourself to be just as racist as Trump is up to you.

Trump is racist.

OK then I am racist by your operational definition.. You're a Leftist by mine.

It’s not an “operational definition.” Trump was fined by the Justice Department for refusing to rent apartments to blacks.

And there is a tape of him saying the N word, even if we haven’t heard it yet. When that comes out, will you still claim to be just as racist as trump?

If there is a tape (and omarosa would have produced by now) how about instead of acting like it's a real thing you act like it's a rumor until it's produced. You seem smart enough to delineate between the two even if you don't always show it.

Unless Omarosa doesn’t actually poses it. You heard the phone call where Katrina Pierson said “he said it. He is embarrassed,” right?

"During the 2016 campaign, we heard rumors about an alleged tape from 'The Apprentice.' It's clear now that those rumors were always being circulated by Omarosa and her alone. In her secret tape recording of me, it was one of many times that I would placate Omarosa to move the discussion along because I was weary of her obsession over this alleged tape. That discussion was nothing other than sifting through unconfirmed rumors regarding the Apprentice tape."

Stop using that tape. Tape or no tape you thought he was racist. Man up and explain why. Something he said 40 yrs ago or what he said during the campaign. Stop being a vague coward.

LOL. I’ll go ahead and believe doesn’t-know-she’s-being-recorded Pierson instead of trying-to save-face Pierson. Thanks.

You had these thoughts before the so called tape. Now are you going to man up and state them or point to a tape that you had no idea existed in 2016 and that still has not been produced. By your own operational definition Omarosa is an idiot. You do realize she was fired by the Clinton administration 2x.

So are you going to man up or not? Give me some examples of Trump being a racist? Or is that incident 40 yrs ago all you go?

Do you realize that even lobsters have hierarchies as do rats. It is just how we the animal species behave.

I don't think you are racist, but you have a clear and obvious misunderstanding of what institutional racism is and how it comes about.

Your argument at this point has become that we should conform to rats and lobsters societies instead of trying to create our own. Are you kidding me?

IMPLICIT BIAS IS NOT RACISM

You are right. It isn't the same thing. However, bias can lead to advantages and disadvantages in society for certain people, as you just pointed out. That is called institutional racism.

You may not realize it, but in the last couple of posts, you agreed that institutional racism exists by saying that bias against black people by police and society is a thing and will continue to be a thing, and now your argument has become that institutional racism has always existed and always will, so why bother.

IMPLICIT BIAS IS NOT RACISM

Yeah great, don’t really care what you googled.

If I use racial bias when hiring, that’s racism. If I use racial bias when handing out a prison sentence, that’s racism.

My point is there is no such thing as perfection.

Of course there isn't. But is it wrong to work towards perfection?

You think strikeout tells his players that perfection is impossible so just don't try to get better?

This is typical liberal mantra "I heard something bad about Trump and because if reinforces my hatred of him it must be true therefore I will repeat it as fact" this philosophy is the basis off the fake news syndrome And is at the heart of what's tearing apart this country. On a positive note though I heard about a new clinic in Arizona specializing in sufferers of TDS. Go ahead and Google it after treatment maybe you can enjoy the rising economy.

Nope. I'm a winner, unlike Cal Tech's program.

Exactly.

Bad Luck has decided to make his own definitions now. Can’t make this stuff up and he still has yet to answer my question what a coward.

Answer the question bad luck.

What during his campaign in 2016 happened that made you unequivocally state that Trump is racist.

Are you going to man up or embarrass yourself yet again. I do enjoy making a monkey out of you.

Trying to figure out where he's making up his own definitions. Are you referring to him not uncritically accepting the opinion of your random yoga instructor?
