Hey silly, I didnt say everything was exactly the same..I asked where is the convos on family, responsbility, being level headed, single family homes, white leaders to denouce this?
There arent any. This is just a white thing that we get to do that yall dont. Like how blacks can use the N word and the phrase "faggot nigga" and we cant.
Well...you'll just have to accept this like we do that. Its our thing. Yall cant do it. We can.
Sucks huh?

Yep. Whites arent allowed to say things that blacks are allowed to. Its just how it is. Its just...different.
And yall arent allowed to burn shit and have drunk fights after big sports games. We are. Its just different.
Sorry. Both are just how things are. As you all would say....get over it bahaha.
I get it...you use your concern over riots as a ploy. I know...just glad you admitted it...not that you had to
Just concern over SOME riots. Ours are ok. Just like yall are concerned when a white gay says "faggot nigga" but a black guy does it and...meh...not concerned.
It's obviously a false equivalence to say this was like fergusson. It's just the OP's latest attempt to marginalize/excuse what was extremely antisocial behavior that should be condemned by all civilized people.
Whats different? I didnt know some guy was killed during the riots but it also doesnt say that it was because of the riot. So basically someone was killed on the day the riots were happening and that means something different to you because...black people something.
Why is this riot not anti social but whites who riot over sports...loses, wins and even pumpkins different? Business?

Riot After Kentucky Loss Ignites Race Debate On Twitter
Many Twitter users argued that the reports of the mostly white Kentucky fans’ rioting was reflective of a racial hierarchy in the U.S. They likened images of Kentucky fans burning objects to photos of the riots in Ferguson, Missouri, after the fatal shooting of black teen Michael Brown at the hands of a white police officer. They said the treatment of white vs. black rioters by law enforcement and news media showed that while black rioters were considered dangerous, white rioters were painted as merely “misunderstood.”
Many of the commentators were actually using images not of this riot, but past events at the University of Kentucky. The most widely-used photo—a woman screaming by a fire, which can be seen below—is actually from Kentucky’s celebration after its victory over the University of Louisville to advance to the Elite 8 in the NCAA tournament in 2014.

Kentucky fans riot, burn cars, etc. For SOME reason, looks different than other recent riot images.

It's obviously a false equivalence to say this was like fergusson. It's just the OP's latest attempt to marginalize/excuse what was extremely antisocial behavior that should be condemned by all civilized people.
Whats different? I didnt know some guy was killed during the riots but it also doesnt say that it was because of the riot. So basically someone was killed on the day the riots were happening and that means something different to you because...black people something.
Why is this riot not anti social but whites who riot over sports...loses, wins and even pumpkins different? Business?
You're arguing with Racist Rocko. Of course he thinks black people are bad.
You have no clue what Black culture is.It's obviously a false equivalence to say this was like fergusson. It's just the OP's latest attempt to marginalize/excuse what was extremely antisocial behavior that should be condemned by all civilized people.

I don't think black people are bad. Do I think there's a problem with black culture that liberals simply refuse to address? Absolutely.

Its a prerequisite you be Black to understand what Black culture is. Being familiar doesnt mean anything. I'm very familiar with white girls and I still dont understand white culture.You told me you werent Black.Its not mystical. You just have no clue.You have no clue what Black culture is.
Right, it's some mystical force that I'll never understand lol. Get real.

So it's a prerequisite that one has to be black in order to be familiar with black culture? That doesn't make much sense.

Did you mean unacceptable or inexplicable? If you meant unacceptable I would agree all communities are having the same issues and this is not something only in Black communities. If you meant inexplicable then you may understand why I said you have no clue what Black culture is.Its a prerequisite you be Black to understand what Black culture is.

Look obviously there's a pattern of behavior that is going on in black communities that is unexceptable. Can we agree on that, my friend?

One of the biggest problems Blacks face is racism. The other is giving up due to racism. Some people get angry when they have to work harder than everyone else just to reach the same spot.Did you mean unacceptable or inexplicable?

Haha unacceptable, I always get That one confused. I think that blacks in particular are struggling, and as someone that is concerned for everyone's general welfare, I would like to see them do better. I would like to see them recognize some of the problems they're faced with as a start.
