2nd, the race of the thieves shouldn't matter. They happened to be African-American, there is no need for others in the thread to make references to African-Americans. Same if they happened to be Caucasian, Asian, or Hispanic. What I've learned living in 1 of the most diverse, multi-cultural cities in the world is that there are tons of bad people in every race & nationality.
Just like we should be searching old white ladies at the airport and not the young middle eastern men that are the statistical threat! The proof is in the statistics. All you have to do is look at the racial makeup of the jails and prisons to know where the statistical threat is.

Studies show that for the same crime, African-Americans typically get longer jail terms, so if you're Caucasian you get out of jail earlier for the same crime.

So you really think myg37 members should be on the lookout for "2 black guys with 19" wheels on a Nissan"?

My initial post on this subject was not directed towards TS, but those who said stuff like people should be on the lookout for "2 black guys with 19" wheels on a Nissan" or something like that.

I wasnt going to even dignify his post with a response, but since you did, ill confirm your right
It is a misunderstanding. My post didn't refer to you but rather "others in the thread". If I meant you, I would've just said thread-starter. In your post, you didn't attach anything negative to their race, but a few of the posts in this thread have underlying racism.

Hey HP, I agree with you! It is those "Bad" people out there that we have to look out for. Unfortunately, everyone has there own idea of who the "Bad" people are.
