Agenda much?

No. I was told by you and others that I was not street wise because I was not connecting gang bangers with city life, grey Impalas and Black Escalades. Those vehicles are popular among many different kinds of people, but the general stereotype is that gang bangers like to drive them, as was indicated by other members.

So if I use that stereotype, as I was very harshly ridiculed for not using, it becomes obvious that I should assume these gang bangers were black.

Now that I played your game and used a stereotype, I'm called a racist.

Do you now see the fallacy in that thinking and why I went with that line of disussion? You and others stepped right in to it and proved my point for me.

Please see the above. I'm just playing the game the way they want me to play it.

You believe he may run a string of grow houses because he's Vietnamese and owns a white Escalade? 

Of course not. This is another case of you jumping to conclusions when there is no evidence to support it.

I didn't jump to conclusions. You said it. Not me. Why would you even suggest he was running a string of grow houses? All you knew was that he was Vietnamese and owned a white Escalade.

Just another casualty of Americas addiction to guns. Very sad.

Violence maybe, a gun doesn't lose his # because of headlights.

You are doing like you always do, picking a tiny piece and dragging it out.
I simply presented you with a possibility and now you presume to know my thoughts.
I harbor no beliefs about your neighor, because I do not know him .... likely that he doesn't even exist.

You understand yet? I presented you with a possibility. .. that is all it was.

Oh please...keep living with your heads in the sand my friend. Meanwhile the rest of the (sane) world will go week by week WITHOUT a mass shooting. I predict you will have one by the end of next week. And as usual, gun nuts will blame everything other than how easy it is to get guns.

Feel free to post some of the hundreds of shootings we have had in the UK. Oh wait....

Should we take their car away too?

I was told that stereotyping is good, was I not?

Why is it ok for other members to stereotype, but I can't? I was called a racist for it.

Could it be that I have just shown the complete fallacy in stereotyping?

Oh no candy is used to catch flies...lookout!

Cars are a necessity. So are knives. Ar-15's are not. Guns are not (other than to a select few such as farmers etc..)

Is that presentation of possibility part of that street wise knowledge we are supposed to have? Should I now contemplate the possibility that an Asian person with a white Escalade COULD be running a grow house?

Yes, I understand. I wonder if you understand the hole you have dug?

Oh, I thought you would own your words, not dismiss them. My mistake.
If you, and others, want to play games...carry on.

I came to this site for civil and intelligent discourse, which as of late, seems to be lacking.

I just used their own words and approach to highlight the fallacy in stereotyping.

My apologies if you don't understand that.

Not true.
I know people that do not own a car.
They have not died due to the lack of a car.

a reply to: 3danimator2014

So are weapons...
Much more so than silly cars

Ok...do i really need to explain this?


You might not need a car. I dont. Some people might not...but cars ARE a necessity for civilisation. End of story.
