GutBomb posted:So it's okay to judge people for past behavior when they are white and wear racist badges and have a confederate license plate, but it's not okay to judge people for past behavior when there are pictures of them doing gang signs etc... This isn't judging someone for past behavior as much as it is gathering evidence of intent. It's akin to that guy who murdered those two NYC cops back in December posting his intention to kill cops and pictures of the gun he used to do so on Facebook.

I guess the easier way to say it is: I can find you millions of kids who twist their fingers in fb pictures and listen to rap who aren't harboring secret cop killing fantasies, whereas Im not so sure I could find a lot of kids who wear very specific Apartheid flags on their jackets who don't harbor anti-black sentiments. Edit: also there are crimes committed everyday by rap fans with "gang sign" pictures in their profiles where its never mentioned. Because its only relevant when people want it to be.

MaxxBot posted:You're directly comparing pictures of someone displaying rabid racism to someone's fashion choices, do you realize how ridiculous that is? Flipping off the camera? Really? I guess that means like half of all teens of any race with an instagram account are murderers. Nowhere did I say Trayvon or Michael brown were dangerous or murderers based on those pictures. I said they are percieved by some people as dangerous or murderers based on those pictures.

The racists who defend zimmerman see non-existent intent in the photos of Trayvon Martin too. I'm not saying the intent doesn't exist in this case, but they are just as convinced of the intentin that case as we are in this one.

GutBomb posted:Congratulations then. Enjoy your politics as team sport. Those two things are radically different as has been explained several times, it's not team sport politics. Trying to say that pointing out a racist murderer has very specific racist iconography (who the hell casually wears Apartheid South African emblems?) in photographs is the same as a media campaign of creating an impression that a black murder victim is actually the real aggressor based on gang signs or looking mad at the camera is preposterous.

GutBomb posted:Badges and a license plate are literally fashion choices. I'm pretty sure this kid did something other than wear a badge or put a plate on his car to make us think he has racist murderous intent. We aren't trying to read the mind of a corpse, we're trying to read the mind of someone being widely reported as responsible for 9 deaths with witnesses quoted as saying "youre raping our women". Extremely different situations.

People trolled through trayvon and mike browns FB profiles to prop up hypothetical situations and assassinate their character. Right now people are doing it to understand an ACTUAL situation and the kid already took care of the character part.

So would a tattoo of "I hate niggers, 666" be considered a fashion choice, or just misunderstood? I mean it's only been like 3 hours since the guy was caught, and I know more of the story is going to come out of the woodwork, but at first glance he really does seem to have some serious racial intent behind the murders.

Half of those don't affect revenue, at least not directly. Low profitability limits growth since the acquisition of new assets comes from earnings, not expenses.

I'm really glad that our old apartheid era flag was an ugly piece of poo poo, so there's absolutely no reason to wear it or fly it unless you're a dumb racist. The new flag is so kickass

I don't even know why I treated that seriously. You should be judged and have your fb page trolled through if you kill 9 people. You shouldn't have that done if you are killed in suspicious circumstances. End of story. Its the difference in looking back for signs of why you are a piece of poo poo, and looking back for signs that will let me call you a piece of poo poo. The two arent comparable in any way.
