    No, but you thinking that the conversation is that simple more or less proves my point.

    People are lying if they said they haven't had a little hatred towards other races. No one can honestly say they havent looked at another race at some point of their life and wanted to do harm to them.

    Well this is a fundamental question about how you look at the law: There are those who believe that if it serves to punish those who "deserve" to be punished that it's working; and there are those who believe that procedural breakdowns, from systemic targeting of certain groups to human error fuckups in collecting evidence, can and should be addressed. I see @Mike Tyson is viewing this thread, and I think he's in law school and can tell you--both schools of thought have and always have had lots of proponents.

    Soo.. I'm really not too informed on the Schmurda thing, not to the borderline obsessive level that you appear to be at. What does all of this have to do with Schmurda? Didn't he get locked up for weapon possession and conspiracy to commit murder? If thats the case then yeah he deserves to be locked up. You can feel free to inform me and fill me in if you think he didnt commit any crimes etc
    im not gonna waste the energy explaining why racism is not right

    First of all, I don't think that making sure I have the facts on something is obsessive, but I'm not hung up on that.

    But I'm glad you brought up the word "conspiracy." From GQ:

    doesn't matter if you are mildly racist or extremely racist, its fundamentally bad

    You should be ashamed of making this thread to be honest

    The idea of someone "deserving" something only comes if you believe in free will

    And I don't understand why you'd believe in free will

    I said that as more of a joke, Paul, but seriously you seem to have invested a lot of time into researching about it, that's all.

    you'll have to come clean and just tell me if you think schmurda is guilty or innocent or if it's his crew's fault etc.. cause now you got me interested in it. ill go look it up myself

    I mean the question of whether being racist is "wrong" or "okay" is ultimately meaningless, right? If anything, it's a personal opinion. The question is whether it's harmful, and it usually is.
