Race hoax in Cobb County, GA

[Derec]

His actual words are evidence. Duh.

Calling one individual a bitch is not evidence of misogyny.

Dude, that tactic is pathetic - accusing others of your faults to deflect attention away.

It is pathetic, and you engage in it constantly.
I hope your newfound self-awareness will lead to healing.

I did not defend her behavior nor her person. Nor have I written anything that would indicate to a rational person that I like or dislike her which explains your conclusion.

You most certainly defended her. Specifically with the silly "maybe she was mistaken that he told her to go back" excuse.

 

[Derec]

Aren't we all tired of this response from Jimmy?

And isn't it also is against forum rules?

We are. Esp. since he is using the word wrong.

I said it was a misogynistic insult not evidence of misogyny. If you arguing it is not a misogynistic insult, we disagree.

It is pathetic, and you engage in it constantly.

No one does it constantly, so your hyperbole is misplaced. Please stop imputing your MO onto me because all it does it embarrass you.

You most certainly defended her. Specifically with the silly "maybe she was mistaken that he told her to go back" excuse.

Offering possible explanations for behavior is not necessarily a defense. If I had approved of her actions, you'd have a point. But since i never did, you don't.

First Jussie Smollet did his race hoax desperate to find racists in the MAGA crowd. Now this woman is instigating a race hoax.

virtue signaling is evil.

Funny thing is that if a black man said to a white person, "Go back to Europe you cracker white boy," the liberal media would DEFEND HIM as not being racist.

Isn't this a sick sick sick sick world we live in?

well, the best I can grant you here is that the hypothetical, thought-experiments you create are sick sick sick sick. Just because you know how to spell the word "IF" does not mean you know how to evaluate possibilities.

Answer the question.

only because I want to.... I would be perfectly happy ignoring the hypothetical question.. but it's Friday... very slow day for me.

If a black man at a food store said to a white man, "Go back to Europe you cracker white boy!,"

I would laugh hysterically... and the black guy would have won me over... but tone is everything when it comes to interpersonal interactions. This is why hypotheticals like this are useless... your image of this imaginary guy is impossible for you to perfectly convey, so everyone will have a different idea of the "scene" you are trying to setup. I imagine a black guy with a good sense of humor "flipping the script".. getting ahead of a potential racist remark.

the only people calling him a racist would be conservatives, right?

That is statistically unlikely.

Leftists would probably cheer and celebrate the black man.

the "leftists" have about 600 questions about your hypothetical scene before they can answer that. firstly, they want to know why he said that.. can you add a few paragraphs of detail to help get to your point?

They would NEVER speak out and say that this is a disgusting act that doesn't belong in our country.

never? not even if the statement was a completely random act of misplaced hate?

You would laugh hysterically if a black man told a white man to go back to Europe?!!?!?!?!?

But, then why are you guys foaming at the mouth at what Trump said about Ilhan Omar? Why aren't you just laughing hysterically about it?

We figured you already had that covered.

There seems to have been a confrontation, of course he said more.

What I'm saying is that it's almost certain she said more, also. The bitch remark very well might have been in response to what she said rather than to simply being in the express lane.

Well, maybe we could look at news reports that summarize what the police learned when they interviewed witnesses and reviewed the footage from the store's security cameras for more insight as to what happened.

And the more we see of this the more it looks like she was out of line.

 

[Loren Pechtel]

Where's all the outrage about that, then? Why isn't the leftist media screaming that she is a bigoted racist who needs to apologize?

This all ties into the fact that only white people can get in trouble for racism. Then they tell us there is no war against whites.

While you are right that we tend to turn a blind eye to non-white racism that doesn't translate into saying there's a war on whites.

Your simplistic worldview which requires the participants in any scenario to be defined as either 'good guys' or 'bad guys' is deeply flawed, and is leading you into error.

EVERYONE in this scenario was out of line. That doesn't prevent those of us who are not binary thinking simpletons from deciding that one of them is out of line in a trivial way, while the other was not. Nobody is perfectly good, or purely evil; and seeking to pigeonhole all of the participants in an altercation into one or other category, as a precursor to determining who is at fault, or who should be supported or assisted, is dangerously over simplifying (and these may be the SAME party in some situations - it's not always morally wrong to assist the at fault party).

Reality is very complex. It's comforting to boil it down to binary choices, but it's not actually helpful.

A guy being rude in a grocery store is not news. It’s no surprise he’s an asshole. He’s a Democrat.

A government official fabricating details of a racial incident is. That made all the papers because the papers need racial incidents like a junkie needs the next fix.

That’s why we are talking about this. She made shit up.

Exactly.
