I can agree. In a country like the US where there is a very good chance that someone has a gun, the stress that must be involved just approaching someone suspicious must be morale-breaking. I can sympathize with that, and if an officer is cautious, I can understand. Now there are so many more rules & norms you have to follow.
It's starting to concern me that almost all of the post-Atlanta incidents caught on tape (see this thread) have black perpetrators. The exception is that tweeker that got pounded by that grandma. I'd like to think that not all anti-Asian incidents are committed by blacks, so is there a bias by the media or is there something else going on?
No idea. This will surprise almost no one, but the nature of the attackers depends on who is doing the talking.
I noticed that fact. NBC reported that 68% were against women.
Again with the "When i was Young stuff" We used to say, Pick on someone your own size to Bully's. It says a lot about these Assholes when they attack Kids and old folks. doesn't it?
Thank you, and I echo your thoughts 💯%. As a POC, I have personally experienced racism, both before and during this pandemic, so admittedly I can get triggered when some events hit close to home. A lot of my work deals with racism, discrimination and even actual persecution on an international level, so every day I'm reading about the worst that humanity has to offer. It's weird in that it has made me both more jaded and sensitive to these issues at the same time, if that makes any sense.
It's a little ironic that here on a forum on a porn website that literally has a warning about heated discussion, I'm finding some of the most level headed discussion by really compassionate people. While I can't discuss the specifics of my job on the internet, I wouldn't want to anyways, looking at the vitriol that gets spewed everywhere from other message boards to comment sections. This is one of the few places where I actually feel comfortable talking about this stuff. And that is a testament to all the users & admin here.🤟
True, but I think it means a lot that you're trying. In the same way a man who respects women is always going to be better than a misogynist. Being aware and educated of the issues is going to be infinitely better than being ignorant to them, or even worse, being part of the problem. Many POC don't want to raise the issue because they don't think it will make a difference, so when non-POC are receptive to listening to their side, it opens the door to true dialogue.
