> If there's a community that has been breaking the law on a massive scale, there should be more shame associated with that lawbreaking than there is shame associated with enforcing the law. How are you going to have a functional So exactly what should Puerto Ricans who are in the continental United States do to prevent being detained by ICE? What should my six foot 2 Black stepson living in a lily white suburb of Atlanta GA (my wife and I moved to another state for reasons) do differently? Should he go to the inner city and change hearts and minds? And you keep changing the subject. I am referring to how the government targets people - the only people who have qualified immunity and can take away an individuals rights. A random Black or White person cant legally detain me or stop me - not even in GA anymore after the Republican governor outlawed citizen’s arrest after it was used to harass and kill an unarmed black man walking down the street - yes it was caught on video. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Ahmaud_Arbery Why do I find it hard to believe that you would be okay being randomly stopped and harassed walking down the street? I now live in a major diverse city. I can see it now. I a Black guy born in south GA being detained by ICE if they raid the Hispanic barber shop I go to - where three of the barbers are from Puerto Rico - because they hear me doing small talk in Spanish. | ||

Should he go to the inner city and change hearts and minds? What should I as a white guy do differently? Go to the prosecutor's office and change hearts and minds? (Also, if your stepson is so worried about white people, why does he live in a "lily white" area?) >you keep changing the subject I've been responding to claims you made in other comments: 'The country has always been hostile to “other”.' and 'The racists have always been in power.' >the Republican governor outlawed citizen’s arrest after it was used to harass and kill an unarmed black man walking down the street I suppose this is more evidence that "The racists have always been in power"? Republicans are the KKK party. That's why they outlawed citizen's arrest after the death of a black man... I'll let you have the last word in this thread. |
