Re: ~omg men dont know what its like to walk through a rough area

You know, not only white women are well off.

And what does the color of the skin have to do with likelihood of being mugged? You think white people are less likely to be mugged. And do you actually think having a big bank account makes you immunized to being mugged

Rich people don't get mugged? Tell that Batman, you snit!

Um... okay, give me a moment to find studies but, for example, minority on minority cirme is way more rampant than crimes on whites in bad neighborhoods. It's proven and a fact that you should really be aware of. White people don't get attacked as much because everyone knows if you attack a white person they'll go to the cops and the cops will always be on their side.

Oh. If you're just going to dismiss everything, I guess I shouldn't bother wasting time with the sources then.

Question: are you a minority?

Re: ~omg men dont know what its like to walk through a rough area

(Anonymous) 2013-09-07 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, I am. Though that shouldn't matter because it's clear you have not done your homework.

But keep on thinking that whites are these magical people that the cops listen and believe everything they say. Never has a cop questioned a white rape victim. A white mugging victim. Never has a cop harassed any white person for something that the white person did not do.

What fantasy land do you live in?

Oh, if that was all, I apologize for my wording. I meant they tend to generally favor a white person over a minority person. I suppose "always" was not a good word to use there.

I truly hope you don't believe that all races get treated equally to whites by the police, though. Because it's quite adamantly not true.

It does depend where you are as a white person. I hear in Japan there is such a thing as "GBBW" (Guilty by being white.) That cops will randomly stop white tourists and transplants because in their eyes, white people, namely Europeans, Americans and Australians, are naturally more violent than native Japanese. If you, as a white person, live in a country, where you are the majority, of course you are going to get better treatment than being a minority. But if you are a white person who is a minority in a country, don't expect the same treatment.

Considering where OP probably got the information though, it was likely an American, European, or Australian person that made the initial claim. Within the context of the conversation, I highly doubt the the people making the claim that men don't understand what it's like to walk through a rough area were referring to people in Japan.

I will confirm from experience that what you've heard about Japan is true-- white people are stopped on a regular basis just because they're white.

And try going to the police after a sexual assault in Japan, being non-Japanese. Try it. I dare you.

Well as long as the white people don't look too scary from what I've been told.

Re: ~omg men dont know what its like to walk through a rough area

is it really all that relevant to respond to a comment that was clearly written in the context of Europe and North America and be all "WELL YOU'RE WRONG BECAUSE IN JAPAN"

i mean, what is the earthly point of that, for pete's sake

Re: ~omg men dont know what its like to walk through a rough area

The original statement was a generalization about men as a whole and then white people as whole. You can't make those statements and then backtrack and say, "Wait, I only meant certain white people and men" without someone calling you out on it.

no, I think ayrt has a good point. And nobody was trying to make a statement about white people as a whole; it was pretty clearly in the context of a place where white people are a social majority.
