    You don’t get a “Get Out of Racism Free” card if you’re born a minority, you know.

      You misspelled victimhood. This is a city that is nearly split evenly between 3 races (roughly 30% of the population each). In that kind of place, you are not a “minority” unless you want to endlessly be called a victim because you know that will get your special treatment.

      This is a place with a black mayor, with majority black police officers, and yet victims still want to cry racism.

        Again, you can still enact racist policies while being of the same race as the victims. The problem is institutional, not just personal. Just because they get a black guy, or populate their strike forces with more diverse people, doesn’t mean racism is solved. It just means people like you can safely ignore the problem.

        There are MORE minority Police Officers (11,700) than there are white ones (10,500). There are almost as many minority Detectives (2,200) as there are white ones (2,900).

        In that kind of place, you are not a “minority” unless you want to endlessly be called a victim because you know that will get your special treatment.

        Or if you’re trying to prove your point, I guess.

        Also, how does the prevalent and well-documented history of black slave traders fit into this narrative of yours? Before you say they were forced into it, they weren’t.

        One last question: do you also believe white people can’t be racist against other white people? Because I can show you plenty lol
