These are excuses. fact is:

Highest crime rate by demographics.

Lowest productivity rate.

Instead of school they chose gangster life.

Most Low and mid level govt job have blacks, with little schooling. Just because another black hook them up with favor. Where as for similar job, Desi with 2 or 4 years degree will struggle.

since they have Black women in most low govt admin jobs, there is a massive waste and frauds in social welfare When it comes to awarding black people free govt money.

Universities Study done by expert shows, in similar Violent incidents b/w Police and Suspect, white and Hispanic are much more likely to die than black. Black just happen to be involve in more incidents, therefore data shows more black incidents.

As I said, police brutality is not a race issue, it is a social issue left wing turned into a race issue. If police officer who choked him was black, it would be obvious that the problem is bad police culture that encourages choking. However, since cop was white, everyone thinks it is a race issue. Reality is there are black cops who would choke George Floyd since cops in general are trained to choke. People don't see white cops as enemy but cops in general as enemy since neither black or white would hesitate to do it. People are angry because when you're being choked, it doesn't matter if a white cop is choking you or a black cop, what people are angry about is that cops in general use excessive force, choking should not be standard policy if person is not resisting. If a black cop choked George Floyd, that doesn't make it ok. This is why people are angry, since choking is not done because a cop is black or white but because of bad police culture that encourages excessive force. People mistakenly think a black cop would never choke a black guy but this is really not true. Outrage would have been the same, but nobody would call it a race issue, it would be a social issue. That is the problem with police brutality, it is not a race issue, it is a social issue. All cops get the same training and a black cop is as dangerous as a white cop since both will choke you, and that is what people are outraged about, not that the cop is white but that he choked George Floyd. Muslims kill Muslims all the time and it is a social issue, but when a different religion person kills a Muslim, it becomes a religious issue.

Also dual containment failed spectacularly in the Iran-Iraq war.

US and Israel thought they would let Iranians and Iraqis kill each other, but it ended up backfiring when Iran installed a Shia gov't in Iraq and both allied against US and Israel. Dual containment became a huge security nightmare that later allowed Iran to reach Israel after getting involved in Syria and creating a land bridge directly connecting Iran to Israel via Iran friendly governments in Iraq and Syria. It could not have happened without failed US policy of dual containment that wanted Iranians and Iraqis to kill each other, ultimately leading to a more powerful Iran allied with a friendly Iraq and a massive failure for US and Israel.

Yes, I agree. The current American problem is more about social issue; and the gap between Rich and Poor widening. With recent Covid 19 disaster and 20% of unemployment, people can easily get angry about everything. Added of how their police harsh treatment make people target them as the common enemy of everyone.

Of course I'm sure that Trump is also aware about this. So he wants to divert the people rage into China. With China as a common enemy, people won't blame the government for the situation. But this riot show everything on why Trump did to antagonize China for these whole years.

Today I saw even my neighbors going to join the protests in SF/SJ. I'm actually against the protests but It's so hard to side with the police here when half of them are on power trips and abuse their authority. Any good reputation the police may have had before just evaporated.

Any McDonald clowns willing to comment on this sort of racism happening over in the US? I have never seen this happening in Europe where police would be saying this.

Just so you know I worked part-time in a store and I used to receive a call every other day being called F*** you ****. ANd one of the customers once asked me where you are from when I told him he said that your country is a terrorist and a terrible country. And wanna know something even cooler?One of my racist **** colleagues told me not to wear a mask because he felt uncomfortable because I looked like a terrorist. Wanna know more??

The mistreatment of non-white people by whites is an age-old racist problem that dates far back.
Natives of various lands and Africans suffered the most.

USA should be broken up just like the Soviet Union. Now that would be a 'beautiful sight' indeed!

But in US Blacks are protesting while Blacks are in The Majority In India.

Just random pictures, Wrong analogy. Doesn’t make sense.

There are no whites in India.

In US blacks are protesting and are backed by lefty loonies

In India Muslims are protesting and are backed by lefty loonies

Both are using the same tactics

 

[nahtanbob]

Every action has a reaction.

I heard that white extremists are plundering shops and looting left and right. Any truth to these allegations?

why don't you come to America and show us ?

If you think more black people are in prison because they commit crimes rather than because the US justice system is flawed against them - then you need to research into this.

Don't buy white propaganda.

there is a good reason pakistanis are emigrating to White societies than Black societies

I personally think Overseas Pakistanis, who live abroad and has Pakistani roots should not get involved in this. Pakistani Americans should not choose sides by supporting whites or blacks. Its a racial matter and let the US government and the targetted community resolve it.

at the end of the day Pakistani Americans have voted with Whites. it is a no-brainer

They are in Cali

I live in 1hr distance from Orange County Florida. Really hectic and busy place, insane weather.

I heard Orange County California is pretty nice. Very relaxing, nice weather, wealthy expensive area for rich retired folks.

I think only thing Orange County Florida and Orange County California have in common is that there is Disneyland in both.

whatever happened to the 1st amendment?

I don't know how Pakistanis of all people have the gall to criticise America. Let me refresh your memory.

In Sahiwal, a family was brutally murdered in broad daylight by Pakistan special forces and the children left were about to be kidnapped and forver disappeared until one of special forces saw someone recording them on camera, at which point they ran away like cowards.

Our Prime Minister was in Dubai saying me too busy man, me deal with this later when i got time.

Nobody came out on streets rioting.

Today, that family, those kids are known as terrorists and those murderers are heroes. The dead people family wasn't given a chance to explain that no, we aren't terrorists, in fact, the dead family had someone in police as well.

The people who murdered them probably got medals because they sure as hell didn't get any punishment neither do we know who they are.

I don't see America calling that black person a terrorist and the policeman as a hero doing his duty. No, he's charged with murder.

I don't see Americans saying blacks are responsible for commiting all the crimes and it was just a mistake?

This is why America is a superpower and we are zero. Their morality is extremely above where we are.

The Chinese should shut up first. You literally threw poor blacks out that African ambassador had to say on record this is horrible. You are raping Uighurs and murdering them everyday and you're going to criticise America for one isolated incident.

I love America, i wish i could fly there but they have made it so hard. We did their dirty work but never ever thought about benefit of Pakistanis. For helping them in Afghanistan, we should have asked them to ease visa restrictions but i guess Pakistan is another Iran. Forcefully enslaving its people so they can't fly anywhere.

I have seen more Islam being followed in West than Pakistan.

The whole nation was in PTSD for months afraid to go out, what if we are killed by those special forces and become Sahiwal terrorists? and it was business as usual for our elites. Me too busy with da sheikh bro, me come back then give a tweet, mkay
