Doesnt that remark of yours alone show that you harbour issues with whte people in general, because you just made an assumpstion that the landloard, who you've never met and dont know personally, is racist just on the basis of his skin colour. Doesnt that make you just as bad as everyone else?


Nope, cos this stereotype, unfortunately, IS alive and kicking! I have played gigs all over the country and am privy to it all the time! :lol:

But a black man does not choose to be black. He can't change the fact that he's black.

There was a young white man in the US that did an experiment and had it filmed. He took some type of drug that made him black and approached several places/situations/interviews etc..The only thing he changed about himself was his colour...The way people treated him when black was truly embarrassing and disgusting!!
:shock:

Then there is the woman who gets large groups of people to do the blue eyed/brown eyed experiment...That is amazing to see how easily one group of people can be convinced that they are far superior to the other group!!! :roll:


Exactly. But this is what we deal with on a daily basis..... it is a harsh reality.

Throughout my 20's and most of my 30's people (mainly women - mainly old) have reacted in a similar fashion to me.

I used to have long hair & wear leathers etc - when women same me walking towards them they would exhibit one of 3 characteristics .. .either :

1. fear - I would see it in the way they looked & they would cross the road.

2. swapping handbags to the opposite of my side (so I couldn't nick them)

3. Aggression - defiantly walk AT me - forcing me to wither walk in the road or perform some such manouver to avoid them.

The above used to happen quite regulary - most recent was about 6 months ago.

The thing is - I'm a perfectly nice bloke - don't fight - don't do drugs - it's all based on simply how I look.

So - I do know what it feels like, it isn't just blacks.


:roll: Yes because you have long hair and leathers for life.

Your right, white people should not comment as they have never been black and visa versa. As you know I come from a place where racism is the only topic of conversation and our whole country is governed by it. Whilst Here a white person can be discriminated agaisnt there is no such thing as "racism towards white people". But unfortunatelly just like I am told I dont belong here, you will continue to get similar treatment. Its odd that you can be born somewhere yet you do not belong. why is it that the people that came from Europe advanced the quickest ? made boats andd weapons ? and therefore caused the world to be segregated as it is today ?

Just an update

The guy was actually stabbed and that is why people were shouting at the police, because he had been stabbed and regardless the police jumped on him, this is why he was fighting back... Even more disgusted!

Don't know about the UK but here no one in there right mind wud fight a cop since there all so worried about being hurt/killed ..............

There's no such thing as a fair fight and you'll get a beating ................when my best friend was married to a cop I'd hear him and his cop buddys both black and white talk all about beating up , pistol whipping ,and leaving people hancuffed in the trunk of there car for jumping on them ........I've seen it too a whole lot of times .

There are some here who wud love to get such a police beating so they could sue and make big money . I read Rodney King , a life time scumbag and small time crook walked away a multi millionaire because the cops beat on him ................

That gives me a idea of how to pay off my mortgage and get a new car ............ :idea:

See you were watching and didn't know the details, the police turned up and obviously didn't have the full story but followed their procedures to deal with the situation and you start shouting they're rascists.
