    I agree. We have put this upon us ourselves. This world would be a better place without people thinking they're higher than the other. But again, without nightmares there would be no dreams, without sadness, there would be no joy, without the poor, there would be no rich, without the ugly, there would be no beautiful.

    All of our opinions have negatives, there would be no stuff that's only having good sides. Everything has a negative effect, no matter what they are, or what they do.

    But nevertheless, there is still an option to make something better, but it sure is no such way to make things the best.

    Everyone is racist in some way, if you find a perfect person tell me. I can't disagree that some people are worse than others, but when you have a police officer doing his duty and the person they are apprehending is threatening their own life what do they do? It is a tough decision to make and has to be made quickly. Saying a person is racist because they had to make a decision quickly is not right. You never see riots when a police officer kills an unarmed white kid... Social media takes a topic and runs with it. In my opinion this is press and social media induced and has gone too far.

    Yes, white superiority was believed in the the early days of america, but from the beginning, there were always activists (of both races) fighting for equal rights. You statements are hypocritical because your are being racist by calling the whites, "the cause of racism". Also "vanillas" is slightly a derogatory term, and fighting racism with those and calling people out should not how you should go about this. I don't need to say anything more.

    Honestly if I had to put thought into this thread, it doesn't have a big impact on stopping people being racist. I know you are a supporter of anti-racism but saying this here makes no difference. People will simply reply to "agree" with you but not really in person by actually going out and saying "Stop Racism!"
    Don't think that I'm a douchebag or anything I'm not racist or anything. I support anti-racism but the only way truly to prevent racism from actually occuring is if anyone says racist things to discriminate either prison or execution (I'm not saying execution will be added but in honest would be almost the only way to stop racism.)
    It is impossible for racism not to occur, but just tell the racist people this.
    "Look back a few thousand to a million years, search about the first humans on earth they all originated from Africa therefore we all had a darker toned ancestor and part African in a way."
    If they reply, no we didn't we came from Europe just call them stupid and tell them to research it. However being so discriminated against this caused people with a darker skin tone to commit crimes for revenge (not the majority.)
    The original/master race should be in Africa because that's where our ancestors came from. If anyone would like to argue with me that humans did not first originate from Africa then BRING IT. I got wikipedia, documentaries on my side. Don't even bother even argue with me as a joke because I wouldn't care if you decide to be a massive jerk but that ain't my problem. Asians shouldn't be discriminated against either, where do you think you get your computers, pens and etc from. You have all seen the "Made in China" thing (They don't last long but still 70% of the stuff you find are made in China). If only I could write this well in my english essay then I would be good but back to point. Racist people don't care if you tell them to stop insulting a person from another race. Honestly I have resorted to violence because someone was being racist to my friend who was Sri Lankan (Yay for suspension). Honestly I didn't regret it, that's my way to sway someone's emotions/feelings to stop being racist by making them scared. Don't do what I did what I did to stop racist people, just confront them and say what I had in bold and italics earlier.

    Trust me don't put out blame on all policeman because of this one policeman's mistake (hopefully). They help retain the order of society, give the world a few million years then everything will be at peace, no racism, no crimes, no humans, animals which aren't extinct by then can roam free without human interference. I have a naive feeling about the world but that's who I am. Just because I'm typing this doesn't mean this is what I feel for real. If I didn't I wouldn't of decided to write a massive report. Some people only discriminate because their friend's are racist, being worried that your friend might not like you for supporting a person from a different race. I wouldn't be friends with that kind of person actually I might even hit him. Even in Minecraft racism occurs *COUGH COUGH WARZ RAGERS COUGH COUGH* I've seen too many on WarZ as well but it's not only WarZ all servers I've been on have atleast that one rager saying ("WOW YOU ***** GO BACK TO YOUR COUNTRY" ~ a raging minecraft player I've met.) One thing is that black people could hate against other black people and asians might hate other asians.

    The legitimate question is "What can a person do to prevent this world full of scum or flowers from hating each other."

    If you managed to read this all, thank you for being considerate enough to hear my arguement out. Honestly I don't care if you read it or not that's your choice but I recommend take some points out of it.

    Unless you are dead... I guess maybe... The formal definition of racist is "a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another." So not all people believe their race is superior. By stretching the definition you could include everyone and by reducing it you can say that very few people are racist. It is defiantly a touchy subject and opinionated on one's beliefs.

    Instead of going on the internet and telling people to stop why don't you ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING! Why don't you go outside and tell people not to be racist. Look at the facts here ok? Racism is always gonna be around and that's that. Why do you think black people are the only victims of racism? I'm Peruvian and Puerto Rican but people call me Mexican. People are racist towards Mexicans a lot too. Look at people making fun of Jews and Muslims. Racism is always gonna be around but you just have to ignore the people who are.

    Flame incoming.

    I'm afraid it is something that can not simply go away. If humanity has the option to do something, it will be done. No matter how harsh of a penalty a government body employs for an act, people will still do it. Example: theft/killing is bad. We all know that. People still do it though, regardless of the penalties. Now, I treat everyone equally. Depending on how someone acts causes me to think differently.

    I have never seen a case like that when a black man has done it intentionally. If I did it was because the white man actually did something bad or dangerous to the cop. Trust me if the black man shot the white man intentionally for no legitimate reason then it would be considered racist.

    The reason you never see cases of black cops shooting white people is because the media never covers it. The national media will only cover a story if a white cop shoots a black man. I think around the time of the Ferguson case, a similar thing happened in Utah(?) but with the ethnicity switched. Did we hear about it? No. The media wants to fuel the hate.

    Yes racism sucks. Yes it's out there, but whatever you do, do not fall prey to the media. Not every case of a white police officer shooting a black person is fueled by racism. Yes, I am sure that some that have happened were fueled by racism, but that does not mean every instance of it is. Now, if you really want to get the full story on any case like this, do your own research from credible sources. The media itself will turn you into a monster. It fuels hate and division, and right now, that sort of thing is tearing America apart. So, before you call racism on something, do your own research. Don't fall prey to the media's agenda. Now personally, it is my opinion that the Brawl forums is not the most effective way to get what you are trying to say out there. Here, I can only see it brooding division and creating flame, similar to previous threads on similar subjects (like the Ferguson one). Now, if you truly want to do something about this Ovul, then you should do a few things. Firstly, find out if what you were describing was truly an act of racism. Don't rely on the media for this one, they will tell you whatever they want to. Secondly, the best way I can see of doing anything is through peaceable public demonstration. Use your First Amendment rights m8! You, your friends, and whoever else you want to get together with are free to peaceably assemble and ask for a redress of grievances. Just make certain that it will be peaceable. You probably know of the riots that went down in Baltimore. Do you think that that did any good? No, certainly not. In fact, stuff like that has the opposite effect. Lastly, please don't tell people to "leave" just because you don't like something they said. That's not they way things work around here. You made a public thread on a website, you are going to get people with a wide variety of differing opinions on the subject you brought up. You should expect stuff like that. Perhaps consider giving your opinion on what they said instead of simply asking them to leave.

    TLDR:
    Racism exists. It sucks. Not all shootings are fueled by racism. Don't listen to the media. Do your own research. Brawl isn't the best place for this. Try peaceably assembling instead. Don't ask people to leave because you didn't like what they said.

    It is understandable to be upset of what is happening in the United States right now, with all these problems with police force and citizen interactions. But don't be one of those idiots that destroys your own community to make a point. Violence leads to absolutely nothing except more violence. These riots are idiotic, and so are those that commend the people that participate in them.
