[RE] Stupid Ass Victims


This is a response post to Kelsey’s post about the BART incident.
I hated how this case turned into such a huge race thing. If a white man was in the situation as Grant, I think the same ending would have happened. Just like  in the whole Occupy Wall Street protests, people of color always want to be the victims. Stop being the victims!
Seriously, when will they stop? No offense but black people just do not know when to stop asking for sympathy. They believe they have the right to keep readdressing the issue of racism, but is that really the case? If Grant was Asian or Hispanic or Mexican or any other race than black, no one would even bring up the racism problem we have in America. Anyone that had the same record as Grant and imitated the same actions as he did, any officer would have been extremely defensive. How would he know he was not armed? All officers also sternly warn people to keep their hands where they can see them - they would not have used any force if you did so. Grant should have known better due to his records. The event also took place late at night, approximately 2 AM. Anyone would have been suspicious of what the hell he was doing at the BART station that late. We cannot deny the possibility that Officer Mehserle was not even aware of the record Grant had. He just acted accordingly so he could have shot anyone.
