Texy Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 Source White passenger got punched in the face after he refused to answer about Michael Brown. Racist hate crime yet hardly any coverage. If this was a train full of white people doing nothing to a white man beating a black passenger...it would've created riots. Hypocrisy at its best.
Deleted_User_1 Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 Yep, there is definitely a double standard. Inner city blacks are one of the most racist kind.
FischerTal Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 Even in the mike brown fiasco, nobody remembers the Indian convenience store owner who was strong-armed
Deleted_User_1 Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 Even in the mike brown fiasco' date=' nobody remembers the Indian convenience store owner who was strong-armed[/quote'] These idiots go on a rampage and destroy their own neighborhoods. Dumb fecks. At least if they stormed a white neighborhood and destroyed property (definitely not advocating it), I would have understood the motive.
Texan Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Well, we all knew that there are two sides to a coin. In a way, it is good that the media chooses not to highlight such issues. Highlighting them will only create an atmosphere of mistrust and hatred among the communities. America is a diverse community of different races just like India is a diverse community of different religions. For the most part, all races get along with each other. Stray incidents such as these are bound to happen though.
Laaloo Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Read someone on yahoo: In the 513 days between Trayvon dying and the verdict, 11,106 Africa American have been murdered by other African Americans.

CSK Fan Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Read someone on yahoo: In the 513 days between Trayvon dying and the verdict, 11,106 Africa American have been murdered by other African Americans. but what has this to do with racism? Crime and murder happens all over the world, But when someone is more likely to be killed because of the color of their skin, it is indeed news
CSK Fan Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Source White passenger got punched in the face after he refused to answer about Michael Brown. Racist hate crime yet hardly any coverage. If this was a train full of white people doing nothing to a white man beating a black passenger...it would've created riots. Hypocrisy at its best. But why do you think this deserves enough coverage? Whites are the majority. They are doing well in all spheres. They can take care of themselves by sheer numbers. Such instances are rare On the other hand blacks are poor, they are against the system (most police, government officials, business owners etc are white). Why do you feel whites need media help or news? Riots, media etc are needed when one side is weak. Who on earth want to take morchas for the already strong side? Why do you think this is hypocrisy?
vvvslaxman Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 St Louis is a racist city. These random incident is not going to change that.. It is like chess board. They have black parts, white parts . White neighbourhood goes extra distance to make sure there are notenough train, bus services in their areas . Why? Because it will increase black population in their area.
Rajiv Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Was coming home late via train ( pub ), and 2 goras were teasing 3 sikhs guys ( amazingly all born here ) Only some chit chat nothing more, the white guy looked like neo nazi and the other was a native

Racist taunts? That would make me very uncomfortable even if it was low key.

Missouri the most prejudiced by a country mile. You see Confederate flags all over the place in rural areas of the Ozarks. Rarely faced any prejudicial treatment once I left that God forsaken state. Yes, St. Louis is fairly segregated.

Ram Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Yes, the problem in today's world is that there's too much black on white injustice. :haha:
