Re: CV and mad panic behaviour Reply #660 – June 20, 2020, 11:40:10 am Fwiw that table shows that white on white homicide is 2000+White on black homicide 243.Black on white. 533.Black on black 2547.For a minority those numbers prove your assertion a biased perspective and you know it.

That 2016 table is being explained away when black people are a minority?Dude, seriously. I know blacks are a minority, and please focus on the original discussion. The majority of hate crimes are perpetrated by whites. This is fact. Quote Selected
Re: CV and mad panic behaviour Reply #662 – June 20, 2020, 11:47:16 am Quote from: PaulP – on June 20, 2020, 08:04:06 amI think you blokes are missing the point. The incidents that lead to rioting and protests were triggers. Individual incidents are not really the issue here. Nobody has ever suggested that people of colour are holier than thou, or that they're not capable of hate crimes. But the numbers don't lie - people of colour are victims a lot more than they are victimisers. You don't measure justice by the level of outrage. The politics of resentment is a dead end. You said i was missing the point.Hate crimes are a biased statistic. They explain away black on white crime if there isnt a political motivation and they'd do the same vice versa. Quote Selected

Re: CV and mad panic behaviour Reply #664 – June 20, 2020, 12:11:44 pm I feel this debate covers two areas that are very loosely defined, both have boundaries that are highly malleable subject to a political or philosophical position!I remember being part of a university debate about aliens, of course whoever gets to speak first gets to define the debate, and we defined alien in a non-classical way. This tactic is used widely in the media, social or professional, making use of ambiguity to influence opinion without clearly defining the frame of reference. It results in anarchy, and in my opinion outside of a competitive debating framework it is an invalid tactic to frame any political or social discussion.The biggest problem in social media is that perspectives are not easily or clearly communicated, and there is no will to fix it, because it's built on a the premise that the poster's has an opinion that is valid and correct in their own frame of reference.

I've joined this debate late, but has anyone pointed out that the sheer fact that 'hate crimes' exist, as in a specific definition in itself, is part of the racism problem? If people are all supposed to be equal (in reality we appear a long way off) the courts highlighting our 'differences' perpetuates the exact thing its trying to stop. Quote Selected 1 Likes

They may be the minority, but that minority seems very very damaging, as damaging to the wider community as the anti-vaxers, environmental extremists and social anarchists.If equality is the genuine outcome and desire, perhaps the first thing that needs to happen is remove financial benefits of being a victim.Not just victims, but lawyers, bloggers, media and politicians.

Re: CV and mad panic behaviour Reply #672 – June 24, 2020, 01:21:43 pm re: Yemini...dont know anything about him and that video sent by a friend was the first time I had seen any of his work.I posted the video of the girl being bashed for the content not for Yemini's views, he obviously after reading some of his workhas just used the video to push his right wing agendas and he seems a professional agitator who rocks up to events and needlesfolk for a response. He was also wrong about the police ignoring the video, we have some police connections and I was assured the matter was/is been investigated and charges may be pending. Any minor attending a hospital with those sort of injuries will have the medical staff making a report to the police who are duty bound to follow it up.As I suggested my point of posting the video was about not having Australia being turned into some mini version of the USA where gang fights and thuggery from any racial group be it white, black or any other colour become the norm and go unpunished.My daughter lives in the Brimbank area where two stabbings have taken place in the last month or two....gangs are running amok out there and Daniel Andrews couldnt care less. Virtually no police assistance after 6pm in that area as the closest police station closes at 5pm and you are relying on a over worked police system that takes 30mins to get officers to your home.Think its the Delahey shops close by where gangs of up to 20 kids run through the supermarket, grab what they like then run out,the staff cant stop them and the police arrive too late.Its like being in the USA or South Africa out in the west in Melbourne and thats not what living in Aus is all about......

Re: CV and mad panic behaviour Reply #673 – June 24, 2020, 06:53:31 pm The police response to the Brimbank stabbing has been very strong EB 🤔My brother and I were stabbed way back when I was 14. It made the headlines because he was a cop but it was forgotten the next day. No riots, no demos, no YouTube, no outraged shockjocks!I feel cheated 😉 Quote Selected
