Racist L.A. City Council Members Caught on Hot Mic

[beefheart]

Nope. She got caught on audio. Her contrition is manufactured. Her resignation was forced.

Racists exist within Democratic Party circles just as it does in all human circles or all skin colors.

Yeah, sure whatever.

Keep on hatin'

 

[PoS]

No one said that at all. Not even close.

Calling anyone who would be the recipient of race-based reperations "criminals" is the definition of a racist bigot.

Anyone who thinks that black people want reparations because they want to be rewarded for being criminals is a bigot.

He was questioning the motivations of those who are demanding reparations. And blacks do commit more crimes.

FactCheck: do black Americans commit more crime?

Anti-police protests continue across America after the Michael Brown killing. But does the black community have tough questions to answer too?

And blacks do commit more crimes.

That is such a hurtful fact that avowed liberals simply cannot bring themselves to deal with it.

Their stock answer is "One is a racist to even mention that fact."

Therefore, there can never be an intelligent dialogue when it comes to that topic.

All of them should find new jobs, if they can. ****ing disgusting.

He broad brushed all blacks as criminals and no. They do not commit more crimes they just get arrested more. There is a big difference there.

Most black people do not commit crimes. The Republican Party appeals to white supremacists more than the Democratic Party does. Does that mean that the Republican Party is against reparations due to white supremacism? If someone assumes this, don't you think they are painting an entire diverse group of people with too wide and bigoted a brush, when only a minority actually fall into that category?

White supremacists are a non existent political force in America. This is an invented claim you keep saying to justify policies of hatred towards conservatives

That is false, more Black Americans commit major crimes then whites and this is statistically indisputable.

I don’t know who you think you’re helping by denying reality and masking it with conspiracy theories. The claim that blacks and whites commit crimes at the same rate is definitely not true, and it’s obvious your source for that is questionable surveys purporting equal drug use, but drug use is not actually a crime, so that is not an argument

 

[EMNofSeattle]

they should lose the positions

Why? Because they mocked a white gay man? When did that become a crime?

Stop with the performative outrage

This kind of behavior has no place in any workplace.

The idea she said anything racist is a LIE shame on you for spreading this LIE.

 

[EMNofSeattle]

This kind of behavior has no place in any workplace.

What kind of lame and gay workplace do you go to?

This is really dumb. You’re saying people Can’t talk normally at work? Pfft This is part of what’s wrong with America. Let’s go over this again, there was literally nothing wrong they said on that call. Nothing whatsoever. This is the type of personal conversation normal conversation people have all the time.

Martinez made a vicious attack on a colleague’s son, and the colleague himself. This is not “normal conversation” — if it is your world, I’m sorry that you don’t have better companions with which to have conversations.

No she didn’t

on a colleague’s son, and the colleague himself. This is not “normal conversation” — if it is your world, I’m sorry that you don’t have better companions with which to have conversations.

People critique others parenting style all the time. And there was no “vicious attacks”
. Changiuto is a term of endearment. And the stupid author of your source censored it despite it not being profanity

So many Latinos in Los Angeles are protesting a “term of endearment.” Um, I don’t believe that for a second.

“Many” Is a subjective nebulous term you chose to use so it could not be quantified. In fact, when I look at pictures of some of these protests on Twitter, and look at the people flooding these council peoples Twitter pages, the vast majority of them are Caucasian. Many of whom don’t even live in LA. I went to Nury’s Twitter page and pulled up ten random people demanding she resigned, 8 white, 2 ambiguous but definitely white skin, not one Listed their location is even being in the state of California. These are Astroturf protests and bot attacks

No he didnt. He accused those who were seeking reparations of coddling to criminals. Not ever black person is seeking reperations, thats your twisted, racist view on things.

Most black people do not commit crimes.

Straw man. No said they do.

 

[lwf]

White supremacists are a non existent political force in America. This is an invented claim you keep saying to justify policies of hatred towards conservatives

So you agree then that the notion that black people want reparations because they want to be paid to commit crimes is an invention of a racist politician?

It is implied. Consider: "Republicans support Tommy Tuberville because Tommy Tuberville is racist."

Notice I am not saying that all Republicans are racist in the above statement. But isn't that at least part of the implication here?

 

[jaypatriot]

No surprise!

As my city of Los Angeles becomes more Hispanic each day, there will be more misunderstandings between the Hispanic community & the shrinking African American community (now down to about 9%).

A few years ago, the janitors' union agreed to reserve a quota of jobs for African Americans.

And it was agreed a few years ago, too, to draw the City Council election boundaries so that at least one of the 15 members will be an African American for the next 30 years.

In the coming decades, the matter of "racism" will cease to involve Caucasians. It will refer to the relationship between Hispanics and African Americans.

Does this now mean that people of color are not sticking together?
Don't they all want the same thing in a major CA city?
Isn't there enough ethnic strife in this country?

 

[jaypatriot]

So you agree then that the notion that black people want reparations because they want to be paid to commit crimes is an invention of a racist politician?

What an absurd question. Of course not.
That idiot politician, Tuberville, makes racist statements and right away it gets attributed to all Republicans?

Why not? A few black people commit crimes and he assumes that black people are seeking reparations in order to be paid to commit crimes. Why is one fair and the other not?

You're making a sweeping, hyperbolic generalization that is not applicable to African-Americans. Neither ridiculous conclusion is 'fair' - whatever 'fair' means.
