ADARQ..Thoughts on
Akbar jaffar ahbab..idk his real name, the kid who took apart an old clock and put it in a little case is suing the city and school i believe for 15 million dollars.
lmao.. sounds bad if you can't at least spell his name right, you know? That's like someone saying "Barack Hussain Mohammed". 8|
Unrelated slightly, but here's a video of someone making the same 'clock' that Ahmed Mohamed made:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHk_6Vh4QeoI'm not really annoyed with Ahmed, he doesn't know how much he "doesn't know". He comes off sounding like a "douche" when he talks about inventing something just by taking it apart; but he's 14, so he gets a pass. His family seems like they are using him a bit. If so, that's definitely a real problem. So many people now hate the kid, his family could be making it worse. dno. If the police did violate his rights, I have no problem with them suing. 15mil sounds like a big number but, sometimes those numbers are important to get law enforcement to follow the rules.
My thoughts are, some of his teachers came out and said he was a douche bag in school, doing shit just to get attention and to be a prick so obviously my conclusion is he thought because he is a muslim, bringing in a clock that looks like a bomb during the times of all of the school shootings and what not, would cause a national attention. If they win then I think it's absolute bullshit and they will probably win because PC bro.
I definitely don't think Ahmed thought that far ahead.. He's really young. Seems naive but energetic + passionate. His family may have thought that far ahead, who knows. Or his family may have just played that card once it happened to him. PC or not, these cases reach the masses quicker when it's a "minority" that has been "victimized" due to the possible discrimination/profiling etc. I mean it makes sense..
There are tons of cases that hit the news, of kids being expelled/arrested for bringing water guns/toy guns etc to school. I've seen a ton of em. So it's not like other incidents don't hit the news.
Alot of people are annoyed that Obama invited him to the white house.. Sure, Obama could have been trolled, or ignored it. But, Obama is also probably thinking about the "anti muslim sentiment" in the US. Look at it now.. Politicians talking about monitoring mosques, having muslims "register" etc. It's crazy shit given the principles of this country.. So minorities sometimes deserve a little "extra", given that a majority has so much power. Obama's invitation to Ahmed probably backfired though; Liberals loved it.. Conservatives hated it. Go figure.
Also
An article about someone making a fake FB group whites united NYU or something.
If it was real, do you think it's racist? even though blacks and muslims and what not can form their own groups and be PC bro?
Well it's not racist by definition:
rac·ist
ˈrāsəst/
noun
1.
a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another.
synonyms: racial bigot, racialist, xenophobe, chauvinist, supremacist More
adjective
1.
having or showing the belief that a particular race is superior to another.
"we are investigating complaints about racist abuse at the club"
If white people get together and "embrace their white ness" or discuss issues affecting white people, then it's fine as long as they don't identify their race as superior or plot to oppress people of other races.. It obviously seems weird, but, if other races can do it, then whites should be able to as well.
I wouldn't go to such a meeting because i'm not "proud to be white". I'm white, whatever; genetics. I was lucky to be born a human, and an american. So I personally wouldn't be interested.
Like LBSS said, there is an "institutional racism" in the united states. So minorities banding together to discuss a perceived or real victimization based on race, makes sense.

1000 years from now society will be so integrated that people will laugh thinking back at these dividing lines.
I wrote a long ass comment to some jasmin chick about it, basically she said whites are idiots etc etc and she wont apologize for her black pride etc etc.
"whites are idiots" is racist :f
So I told her that if she and the other BLM people had so much black pride, then they would do what they could to set good examples, clean up their neighborhoods, get kids involved with school instead of drugs and gangs etc etc and to inform her that ignoring black on black crimes that happen daily is worse than focusing on the few incidents of cops shooting criminals.
i'm sure many of them do.. there are probably some great things to come out of black lives matter.. but the news media is going to sensationalize alot of the bad things, such as how some of them protest "disrespectfully" & "irresponsibly".
I also mentioned the black kids that raped and murdered a pastors white pregnant wife, and a black guy who shot a medical student in the stomach who was trying to stop a robbery and then pointed a gun to his head and tried to kill him but his gun jammed.
ya but, every race has disgusting criminals. You can name lots of white serial killers, even ones who eat people. Then white mass shooters. Asian mass shooters. Black snipers, etc..
Every race is committing heinous stupid crimes.
Before this comment gets thumbs down lol I just want to be clear that I am not racist. If you're a good person, no matter the race or religion or anything then ballin, we can hit bi's and tri's.
i don't believe you're racist in the "superiority sense", so no you're probably not racist. These "double standards" and "political correctness" elements bother you, which is fine.. but, you still have to put yourself in their shoes. There is and has been a real problem in this country for minorities in this country, especially blacks.
As for whites not being able to be victimized by racism, i've experienced racism several times (from white & black people). I've also experienced it as a third party, ie, white people verbally/physically attacking me/my friends because they were black. I've had white people try to jump me, black people tried to shoot me. Finally, i've experienced "profiling" and harassment/threats from cops. I have some experience in the race victimization department. It's a big cluster fuck. The real problem is embracing these divisions (by race, religion etc) to band people together to victimize people of another race/religion etc.
dno my 2cents.
