A black and white guy each steal a car...
Even the cop doesn't even care the alarm has gone off right next to him at 0:36.

Ahhh, America. Land of the free, and where everyone is equal.

I wonder what would happen if you put that black man in a suit with a tie. Is it that the bystanders are racist or is it a matter of location and looks? I do think racism exists and I know for a fact that police racially discriminate (Uncles wife who is a texas cop told my family) but is this one of those cases?

Source[/quote] First problem with that is that the FBI classifies hispanics as white. The guys above don't look very much like the white guy do they? As long as we're saying this was because of appearance, that matters. Blacks make up 14.2% of the population. Source: http://www.cdc.gov/minorityhealth/populations/remp/black.html (people) 38,929,319 Whites and hispanics are 72.4% of the population Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_the_United_States#Race_and_ethnicity (people) 223,553,265 By your statistics, 17,250 cases of motor vehicle theft were committed by Blacks. Also by your statistics, 32,575 cases of motor vehicle theft were committed by Whites/Hispanics. Assuming that the incidence of repeat offenders is equal between the races and can therefore be normalized to 0, we can estimate that: 1 in every 2,257 blacks will commit auto theft. 1 in every 6,863 whites/hispanics will commit auto theft. If we're going by raw crime statistics, it makes more sense to profile the black man. WHOAH MATH CAN MAKE POINTLESS RACEBAITING GO BOTH WAYS?!?! Not to mention there's plenty in this video to make the example seem questionable. The two different instances were clearly shot in different neighborhoods, there's nothing to indicate that the police weren't notified in either instance, and if the two events really happened in the order presented, there was a short time between both, and they occurred near each other, the first incidence may have had an effect on the response to the second. There's nothing substantive here; just racebait. Criminals are criminals no matter what color. Blacks that don't choose that lifestyle shouldn't feel obligated to make excuses for those that do, and they certainly don't need you to make excuses for them.

Meaning blacks still managed to steal half as many cars as a people group that is over 4 times their size.

2 RepliesEdited by SBTTLS: 2/21/2014 5:09:17 AMPut this in another thread. I think it's still relevant. Short story. Be a white dude, age 20ish. My ex left her iPhone in her roommates car. She asked if I could use a coat hanger to open it. Her roommate is probably at her boyfriend's. I said, "yeah". Her roommate's car is parked outside on the street of her new apartment. She lived downtown, so the streets were kind of busy with pedestrian traffic and cars. She said it's the red car parked in front of the door. I have met her roommate probably twice at this point. Use coat hanger to unlock car. Car alarm goes off. No one cares. One person asks if I need help. Grab her phone. Hope the alarm stops soon. Give her her phone. She can't unlock her phone. Realize it's not hers. Realize that was not her roommate's car. I just loudly stole a phone in midday in front of several people. I returned the phone to the original owner. It was one of the other 5 apartments in the building. I explain the story. We have a beer. My girlfriend at the time and I are no longer together, but the owner of that red car and I still hangout.

I remember a video that did something like this and had 3 white kids vandalizing cars and had 3 black kids sleep in a nearby car, people literally called the police to report the black kids sleeping and not the white kids destroying cars.

1 Reply[quote]For the record, whites committed 64% of motor vehicle theft in 2011, while blacks were responsible for only 33.9%[/quote] Well, since you want to bring straight statistics into this, I will offer a rebuttal: Rounding down, white Americans represent 70% of the population. Rounding up, African Americans represent 13% of the population. To normalize the FBI statistics into a weighted rating, you simply divide the motor theft percent by the population percent, which yields: White Americans: 0.91 African Americans: 2.61 2.61/ 0.91 = 2.87 This indicates that African Americans are 2.87 times more likely to commit motor vehicle theft. Note: This does not reflect my opinion on anything, just wanted to provide clarification on how statistics should be used in circumstances like this.

Dumb cop

Welp.... Glad I'm white I suppose. But man, that MUST be the LAPD looking at how they reacted to the black guy

Edited by Unique ID: 2/21/2014 6:14:04 AMEh -blam!- it.
-
Why did the cop pull his taser out? What's he going to do, impale the coat hanger through his bulletproof vest?
-
Weow. So apparently if you try to steal a car in broad daylight, nobody cares! Provided you are white and well dressed.
-
I feel bad putting the black guy into that situation, everyone knew what was going to happen.
-
Wow they called in a lot of cops for just one dude
-
How about just not break into a car? Doesn't matter if you're green.
-
USA! USA! USA!
-
That's messed up.
-
That is funny, but at the same time messed up. Guess I am glad to be white. I've had to break into my own care before and had no issues. Did it for a friend as well and no one stopped me. Then again, I'm pretty fast with a coat hanger.

This is simply beautiful.
