Even if we're to argue about the frequency of crimes(minus those arrested for selling drugs on the street corners), white people definitely still commit more crimes than blacks...

White people top all the charts in violent crimes, arson, r.ape etc..

Oh and I forgot Nigerians categorizes every light skin fella as white.

Why should you minus those selling drugs on the street. is it not a crime to sell drugs again?

The drug-law disproportionately victimises black people...and because of the poverty rate among black people, you can't really use that to determine .crime frequency... It's all about survival of the fittest and getting it any way you can - and that obviously makes a lot black people fall into the street pharmacist group... However, most of the drug users are white folks... So, if we're to include the drug thing in there - we've to include both the sellers and users - something the law isn't doing atm... The users get a free pass while the sellers are the ones being victimised... Do you get my drift??

I'm not sugarcoating it - I'm just trying to make a balance judgement...

Drug users are just as criminal minded as the sellers - Yes, or No?

Where's the correlation A better comparison would have been illegal guns/racketeering sellers and the buyers... With that, both the sellers the buyers are guilty... The same should apply to drugs as well... The drug business is an organised crime and everyone involved(both sellers and buyers) should get the same treatment, period...

Anyway, drug users are just as guilty as the sellers, no matter how you look at it...

My point is that someone who sells something that will kill someone is worse than someone who buys something that will kill yourself. If you r.ape and traumatize yourself, no one gives a flying f*** but if you extend the same treatment to your neigbour, it's something else entirely...Your scenario is different because the buyer is most likely more dangerous than the seller.

@ the bolded - that's also how the drug game is... People under the influence of drugs are more dangerous than the sellers... However, they still get a free pass from the law... Do you get my drift now?

I watched the video and I couldn't see or identify the police or organizers of the event that some people said were standing by while the clothes were being taken by those people. It looks like looting to me.

But even assuming that the organizers of the event spontaneously decided to give away those clothes, or assuming that they had planned to do that all along at the end of the marathon, how is it normal behavior to go and start scooping up as much free clothing as you can in the wake of a terrible tragedy?

They don't actually need the clothes (unlike some of the "looters" during Hurricane Katrina, who needed some supplies), and one would think that people would have enough decency and decorum to forgo these "freebies" (assuming they were being given away and the people weren't looting like they appear to be) at a time when people are hurt and suffering and there are more serious issues at hand.

Whether they were looting or not, this behavior is just in bad taste. It's indefensible. I have enough jackets and shirts at home (and I'm pretty sure these people do as well since none of them looked particularly poor or ragged) and I would not feel the need to go collecting shirts (even if they were being offered) in the wake of a terrible disaster like this bombing.

Including the LAND the Americans currently call home (stolen from the Natives by killing 112 million of them with smallpox).

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_history_of_American_indigenous_peoples

This link says their population was from a low of 8.4 million to 112.5 million, so I just roughly said it.

But previous articles tend to suggest their population was slightly above the 100 million mark.

May Satan forgive you for implicating him in your misdemeanours. The fact you said was presented and ignored says Associated Press (AP) committed those partiality and injustices by their media. I pointed the error in the second information, which evidently was not from AP as purported by that comment. Then I went on to fault the practice of making one company's media prejudice (assuming AP actually were to be the source of the second information) a national "agreement and mindset." I even questioned you on why should you take an editorial comment of a publisher to be the sin of every Nigerian or American. I concluded by decrying the same racial, ethnic and tribal prejudicial practice that your generation have brought upon Nigeria and Nairaland in this online era. So tell me what material fact was presented that you are fighting that I haven't tackled?

More so, the people you are quoting (and abusing God) for causing pains on others by reason of ignorance, hatred and deceit are exactly your type of people who thought that there is no God or judgment or repercussion for whatever they do. But let it be known to you that "though hands join hands, sinners will not go unpunished" and because "speedy judgment is not brought upon man's actions, his heart is set in him to do evil." Carry on, you will meet someday with the One you hate so much when it will have been too late to receive that His wrath you are asking for where is it, in the company of those that caused the pain you talked about BECAUSE "the soul that sinneth, it shall die."

You believe in your god and his crew satan and Jesus, it's yours own it.! The fact that people like you are eager to judge people according to the concept of your beliefs on god borderline madness. Everything god this god that.. Why don't you just tackle the subject and leave your god out of it. You already tagged me an atheist because of your sub stander truth. You believe you were born a sinner that's on you don't rope me in with your scriptures. So keep your fear mongering and black mailing god to your self... Those who dwell in the essence of God don't need to shout every 5mins it's part of thier existence. While those who believe in words of god always have to proclaim and remind themselves every split second.

Your god is your god and your satan is your satan...! Own it don't pass it around..
