This is FAKE! Google doesn't recommend more POSSIBLE search suggestions, just spelling errors. All someone had to do was purposely misspell the word "black" and type in the rest of the search. Then Google would suggest: black people stole my car. While on that page, they deleted the word black, and typed in white. If you take your cursor off the search area, the page doesn't automatically make the new search. They took the screenshot after they manipulated it. It wasn't meant to turn into this big controversy about Google. It was meant to be a joke.
 
it doesnt happen to me when i type it in...it must be his computer that's racist, not google
 
looks like somebody searched black people stole my car and spelled black wrong. then redid the search and took a pic.
 
[h1]Real or fake? "White people stole my car" is big on Google[/h1]

For the past week, the phrase "white people stole my car" has been Googled like crazy.

Perplexingly, though, there were few results yielded by this popular search and most links lead to some fairly nasty malware. Finally, the above screenshot surfaced, which seems to at least solve the mystery of why the phrase was so popular on Google. As the screenshot above implies, Googling the term "white people stole my car" results in the search engine asking if black people stole my car. Well that's… really not cool, Google!

But is it real or fake? As of now, Google does not correct the phrase in a racially insensitive way. And while it does appear that at one time Google did, it's entirely possible and plausible that someone misspelled "black people stole my car," got the correction shown, and altered the search text as a prank.

I tried to re-fake a screenshot, but it seems that Google is not correcting any searches to say "black people stole my car" anymore. Bummer.
 
You are an idiot if you think that's real. Anyone could just mispell a word of their choice, and re-type w/e they want into the bar. "Balck peoplestole my car" is probably what he/ she typed in. This even becoming "big" is
