Personal experience is frowned upon in here otherwise I’d be glad to share

What does personal experience have to do with the the racial wage gap between minorities and whites?   Like... what?

Your personal experience does not reflect an entire race or a systematic process.  I really hope you don't think that.

Black people with the same degree as white people still make far less.  This isn't a "personal-scale" level question you can solve with your own "personal experience".  It would be like LeBron James answering a question of if anybody can make it to the NBA using his own personal experience.

The last several years have been especially illuminating for me as a white man. I don't feel guilty for being a white male; it's something out of my control. However I can see the privileges I've had, and how, even if it comes from a sincere place, that telling women and minorities how I think they should handle their fights for equal rights/treatment will rarely be received in the way I intend it. It's tough to be relegated to a supporting role when you've been taught your entire life that you're supposed to lead from the front, but what I think they are looking for is for those of us who support them to truly support them. To have them tell us what their play is and let them know we've got their back. I support what Eric Reid is fighting for. 

honestly your support is greater then you think, any person of color who thinks they can do it on there own is sadly mistaken and mislead. Harriet Tubman gained very very important support from white people in her route to freeing slaves, it is pivotal,  you efforts or opinions shouldn't be dismissed. Chris Long is a guy i'd highlight as a great example of what we need from the "other" side. You may very well be able to relay the overall message better to your race then a person of color would be able to.

The education thing isn’t anecdotal. It is very much factual.

It's literally like he's saying his personal experiences outweigh data and the lived experiences of anyone who support police reform and have a problem with police brutality. Maybe his problem isn't racism, it's his arrogance and narcissism

That black people commit all the crimes bc we are simply more apt to it

Got nothing to do with societal issues which put black people behind the eight ball, or racist systems which target poor black communities like stop and frisk

There have been countless police depts investigated by the DOJ that have been found to be racist in their policing practices, bc they target minorities and levy fines to generate revenue, but the poster you quoted is a racist and wants to paint black people as behaviorally deviant rather than ask questions about the how and why. Typical racist bullshit. 

Is it racist to bring up dropout rates, single mothers and violent crimes within the AA community, after all Eric Reid did say you need to talk about issues to make them better. Are all these pressing issues I just brought up the white man's fault cause of slavery 400 years ago? Last i checked highschool was free and its your own choice whether u get a girl pregnant and stay or leave, also its your own individually decision to start committing violent crimes. 

How are there so many successful Black Americans in America with all this "oppression" here. 

In all honesty you make you own choices in life, if you want to be a street rat and be a piece of poo in life, dont blame your failures on anything other then yourself. Its always the same crowd of low life losers that want to use some Blanket Argument about racism and oppression for the reason they failed at life. When the same fuging person of your color accels through life and has a great career because they studied hard and did all the right things, and your sitting in some dumpster apartment with 0 savings blaming it on everyone but yourself.

That was sarcasm...

 

Would love to hear as to why YOU or other feel is to blame for the wage gap. I could give you a number of factors but why waste my time when I’m being called racist?

      Observer Projections / *Updated Panthers Waiver Additions

      By panthers55 · Posted

      One thing I will say is you always have to get in the last word and keep repeating yourself as if that makes you right. Since Bryce and Canales are on the same page and this pffensive scheme us designed for Bryce uour round peg argument is off base as well. But don't let that stop you since it hasn't in the past. Unless you can say something new or use facts and expert opinions to back up your comments as I have, I am done.  You clearly have nothing to add to the conversation but the same circular comments which are simply your unsupported opinions. I don't have time to waste going back and forth. Carry on.

      since this a Thielen thread, here's my 2 cents....Mentoring is one thing, but could there've been bad advice also. Not saying he purposely told Young bad advice but not all advice is good. Look at that Raiders game, before that Thielen was clearly upset with Young(hence his benching) but Thielen got hurt, Young came back better. N we really didn't beat the Raiders(they beat themselves, there was a bit of anarchy going on remember, D.Adams perform a coup)    Just like Young first yr, the coaches (Frank) wanted to sabotage Young(hence the fastest hire n fire coach in history proves that.  Young is a good seed we planting but we first have to get rid of the bad apples. Thielen saw his time coming to an end and wanted to leave n go home.    Just like Renfrow, slow, n sorry but I'm so glad we don't have to hear about his comeback story every time we play. Thielen was reliable, but we need speed. And he beat up, still has lingering injury issue, oh but ya'll didn't know that(or maybe u do if u look at the details of his trade). Dan just got him off the books and got some capital, GREAT JOB DAN...btw Morgan push for Young over CJ, and it's no coincidence Canales was picked to coach Young up. At the end of the day, with Tmac, XL, Coker(probably will break some of Smitty's records except the triple crown but if he does oh boy). Coker needs to be on the field. He couldn't with Thielen in the picture.
