Lots of people accusing him of things. Smoke = fire? Paula Deen had just been robbed at gunpoint when she used that word, almost 30 years ago, but don't bother to fill-in that little detail, Keith.

One of these people approach you while you are walking on a quiet city street early one morning:

Which one puts you instinctively on alert?

It's not about race, Keith. It's about culture.

>> "And just last month, I had to pull out my own iPhone to photograph and report the license plate and medallion number of a taxicab driver in New York's Union Square who refused to pick me up and then drove across the street to pick up a white customer seconds later."

The odds the taxicab driver was White is slim to none -- probably a person of ME descent.

Racial privilege? Shove it, Boykin.

And that’s why George Zimmerman’s defense attorney Mark O’Mara last week told Fox News’s Sean Hannity that his client, a known killer with a long arrest record, was just a “meek, mild guy without a racist bone in his body.”

**********

GZ is a known killer with a long arrest record?

Because whites are racist!

Didn’t you get the training? Or the memo?

Honestly...

Why White People Don't See Racism

This is a racist statement.

Dude, no white woman is going to come up to you demanding to check inside your pockets for an iPhone she thinks you stole. Its a FALSE PRETENSE and she’s obviously just trying to determine if “The Legend” is true or not.

May I suggest blacks have the discussion amongst themselves, and when they get things figured out, bring the discussion to the rest of us. Why would a cab driver turn down one fare to pick up another? Before yelling racism, think safety. Who is more likely to mug that cab driver, or stiff him on a fare? I bet the answer is black guys. The woman at the airport may have been a racist, or she may have been robbed by a black guy. Before thinking racism, ask why blacks get searched more at clubs, or why people suspect black people of committing crimes, or why a cabby would prefer a white fare.

Black men commit more crimes than any other race of men. It has become part of the black culture, with the militant hip hop and rap generation, with flash mobs, gangs and the whole black gangsta’ mentality. It’s a black problem. Deal with it instead of glamorizing it. While you’re at it, ask what is to be gained by all the hatred and militance directed at white people who would like nothing more than to live in peace with black people. If blacks work on their problems, they will find most whites don’t have a problem with them, racial or otherwise.

Here’s a good one. If you’re white and you ran into any of the Duck Dynasty men and didn’t know who they were, would you be a little leery of them?

All this argument about how high the crime rate is among blacks makes me wonder, just how is it that racism against blacks started so long ago. There had to be a reason.

Keith, if you are a member of the “Black Community,” then you are going to be lumped in with ALL blacks, just like you lumped all white people together by saying “Why White People Don’t See Racism.”

It is unfortunate that you are an upstanding citizen who is treated like a potential trouble maker or even criminal. My suggestion is that you need to get some REAL black leaders who will stand up for a moral and civilized culture and who will gather good black folks together to push this agenda in the family, in the neighborhood, in the schools, and try to re-establish the black church as well.

Want to demonstrate? Got after Al Sharpton who is an evil person. The same for Jesse Jackson. The same for all the race pimps. You need leaders who teach your people the right way to live, to take care of themselves and their family, NOT to depend on the “government.” You know that you and I pay taxes to take care of some real losers. Why not teach those losers and show them how to make a positive contribution to the world.

If Dr. Ben Carson’s mother could produce a famous surgeon, surely other black mothers (and the rare black fathers who care) can do at least a fraction of that. Make your job NOT to get drunk or stoned, but to teach your kids to read and do math and to be curious about how the world works.

If you want to be treated the same way you see white people treated, you have to go after the thugs, drug dealers, gang members, thieves, vandals, muggers, rapists, etc. You have to fearlessly do something about it.

Can you REALLY blame white people for being wary of blacks when the news is full of black-on-white crime. Am I supposed to deny the danger of black youths and endanger by life or am I going to be very careful around them? Should I fearlessly walked through a group of 10 black kids hanging out or should I avoid them? If I am wary and want to be sure who I am dealing with, I will be called a racist. If not, I may be robbed, beaten, killed, or raped if I am a woman.

We treat you differently because your race causes a LOT of the trouble. You may have a GOOD culture as your foundation, but a LOT of your fellow blacks have BAD foundation. If you want to be treated better, you have to fix those in your race who have that BAD culture.

You have to continually pound on it. You might start with the music. Teach your kids that nigga, cop killa, talking down on woman, get whitey, smash mobs, etc. are TOTALLY unacceptable. Maybe you need to establish some of your own neighborhood watches like white people have been doing.

You are in a war with people from a BAD culture. If you don’t want to clean it up, white people certainly aren’t going to be interested in catching the flack of doing it for you. The simplest thing for us to do is avoid ALL of you and move away, since you aren’t doing anything about your problem. Therefore, how can we trust or respect ANY black person we do not personally know?

Even a lot of your athletes and entertainers are dangerous people.

I could go on all day, but I’ve got things to do. I’m working on my yard to improve it for myself and my neighbors. That is something else you could teach other blacks. Don’t sit on your porch. Clean up the shit people throw on the street. Plant some grass and flowers. Mow your lawn. Show some pride where you live even if you don’t own it.

I hope you get the idea. Clean the BAD black culture out and you will be respected.

Is there a BAD white culture? Certainly, but nowhere near in the percentages there is a BAD black culture. When we have BAD white people, we take care of it or we call the cops and don’t have a riot if they have to kill one or two of the bastards.

Am I lecturing you? You’re damn right I am and you know what I said is true. What I don’t like is being lectured by black people for being wary of them because of the way they have let their culture degenerate. That’s not my fault. I didn’t vote for the democrats who helped ruin your families and culture.

Show some more courage, man! Take on the racists in your race and teach them WHY a lot of white people are afraid of them and how to fix the problem.

Drop your stupid law suit and understand why you were treated differently from the whites and try to honestly tell me that if you were the white guy, you wouldn’t do the same thing he did. Blame the BAD actors of your race who are ruining things for you. Sue THEM.

White people don’t see racism? The hell we don’t. White people get mugged and get their asses kicked by black racists on a regular basis, but we have learned to avoid it by avoiding black people we don’t know as much as possible because you GOOD black folks don’t do anything about black on white crime. What do you think about the knock-out game? Fun thing for black kids to do? Where the hell are you LEADERS? You have no leaders. Maybe you could step up and get involved.

Is that racist? No, it is closer to prejudging and profiling for one’s own protection. Just as Jesse Jackson admitted doing himself. Just as you do when you are walking down the street at night, no matter what race the other person is. Is that a wrong thing to do or is it a wise thing to do?

Yeah. . .not buying all these supposed "discriminatory" events. I'm quite sure there were other things going on if they occurred at all.

No white woman is going to go up to a random black man and ask to search his pockets without something else going on.

Why black people do see racism: allows them to play on white guilt, manipulate for special benefits they’d never earn on their own merits, cover up their own inadequacies by blaming them on others - and on and on........

racism is a daily part of our lives. Like air and water, it's part of the environment in which we live. Yet far too many white Americans still live in denial about its persistence.

If blacks want to be treated better, they have to behave better. It is cause and effect. They need to stop committing so many crimes and learn to become more productive.

“white Americans” - lowercase ‘w’.

“Black Americans” - uppercase ‘B’.

Who is the racist? Tell me again, Keith!
