Here's my take on it. The whole argument of what racism is can be argued all day. Feel free to dispute on each side. It is what it is.
However if its a group of black people beating a guy up because he's white or a group of white people beating up a guy because he's black either way you spin it its not cool and is sickening to see a person be assaulted or mistreated off the color of their skin.
Regarding the topic of racism in America. I'm half white/half Puerto Rican but look like a straight white dude.
Ill put it like this. The majority of people in power in this country are white, the majority of bosses, supervisors, people holding political office etc are white. There's certain areas in this country that are very unfriendly to minorities and there's people in power who have the pull to make it harder for an individual of color to get certain jobs.
Lets not pretend like that doesn't exist.
I feel its becoming more of a class issue then race issue as time progresses. The financial elite vs the middle class and those below but the racial aspect is still there.
And personally this is just me, there has been times where you can say a white person has been treated unfairly because of their color but it pales in comparison to what other ethnicities have gone through in this country. If you can't handle a slight small but of adversity then your not built for the real world.
I never denied this and I agree with a lot of YOUR points. Its the idiots on here that have tunnel vision so bad that they absolutely refuse to see anything else.
I'm willing to step aside because clearly anything I say is racist so F it. I'm done my job for the day so I'm no longer getting paid to bicker back and forth. Going home to enjoy life and not blow a blood vessel over the internet.
