Definitely not acceptable if true. I wonder if there might be more to the story or embellishment. One of the kid’s father referred to “colored” kids multiple times in Facebook posts. That’s not exactly an accepted term now a days.

Really? What should they be called to distinguish them by race when race was clearly a major component of the incident?

Something that isn’t a derogatory term. In the last 20 years, have you called blacks “colored people?” How did they react? Or is this an “I’ll call people whatever I want” argument?

What is the difference between “colored people” and “people of color” (which is the woke way to say it)? They mean exactly the same thing.

They don’t. Don’t take my word for it though. Ask a black person.

Even more basically, what did a kids parents use of that term in his Facebook page have to do with beating on those kids? This was about rounding up kids for being white and forcing them to say Black Lives Matter, not revenge for what one of the fathers wrote on a Facebook page.

Curious of the source of that story of using the term “colored people”. What rag of a media thought they could use that to deflect from a gratuitous race based beating?

Nope … You’re the one proposing a bet.

Yes, which you could win if you produce evidence. Assuming you are participating.

I’m not betting. You apparently don’t understand English or logic. I never said that was what happened, I merely posed a possible theory. You declared in no uncertain terms that that theory is wrong. The obligation to prove it (if you are really so confident that it is wrong) rests entirety on you.

Don’t theories include some shred of evidence?

No… no you didn’t.

Not the playground… anything but the playground.

D⁶…

I’m sure they’re serious. I wonder if this picture will give a clue as to why “colored” is not an accepted descriptor. Or even better we’ll get a “non-woke” explanation as to why it’s perfectly OK.

I think some still believe the groups included in the 1960s use of “people of color” are the same as those included today. Terms change. Some people change their usage with them. Others don’t. Then they call people “woke” for changing with the times. As if that’s a bad thing.

And you would be wrong. Not as a go to punishment but sometimes a reset of the butt to brain circuit is necessary. My grandmother was that old school southern woman that made me get her the switch she whooped my posterior with.

Why is this the local police? If black students were hunted down and told under force to say “white lives matter” the FBI and DOJ would already be there, right behind the New York Times and WashPo.

That’s probably true and we’d have Black leaders marching in the streets demanding justice.

The “marches” would be mostly peaceful of course.

Of course. Aren’t they always?

They made the little whiteys say black lives matter

The racial slur “black lives matter”

Those little black kids should be punished. No dispute here. It’s not some evidence of minorities taking over

How did you get all the way from the question of who influenced those kids (the black ones) to behave like thugs to “minorities taking over”?

Black people are not entitled to charge of word definitions to suit their own agenda. “People of color” … by definition and English phraseology … means exactly the same thing as “colored people.”

It is okay to say “black people” I presume …

Yes, they do. Haven’t you been keeping up with all the links to CRT in the schools in this Forum? I’m sure @WuWei can direct you to some choice ones if you missed them. Personally, I don’t keep track.

Or is this just evidence to back up my accusation that you don’t understand English?

I asked the question earlier and got no answer … What y’all want to be called? It seems like no matter what adjective a white person uses, it’s wrong.

How has the “ass whipping is not the answer” generation been doing?

Pretty well.

The boomers that got heir assses whooped, has created the economic chaos we have today.

That’s not wrong. CRT is desperately seeking hegemony.

Good point.
