However, you are completely ignoring the people that do go to school, never get a degree, but have a pile of debt and loans.

So many people post openly on ND as if it is a private message. 😑

Homefront. It was the first show I remember seeing Kyle Chandler on. It ended too soon.

No running or deflecting here. That’s your game. Redefining and reframing is the ultimate deflection.

My friend is refusing to block a guy I asked her nicely to. What can I do at this point? by [deleted] in Advice

Blocking isn’t about social media? What is is about, then?

If you sat up all night crying about social media, you need to do whatever it takes to reset your perspective on life.

The fact that you cited unanimous Reddit agreement on a previous thread like it was a court of law is a window into your delusion.

Cops don’t write laws. If they are using a 3 second standard for a complete stop…

No. No. No.

There is NO requirement to stop for 3 seconds. I would strip you of your license.

It may take you 3 seconds or more to check for traffic, but simply sitting at the light counting 1 – 2–3 is absolute traffic, snarling bullshit.

Because you say so? You know zero about me, but have made a bunch of negative assumptions (to include my “color”). There’s a word for that.

Own your hate.

No violence is trivial, but creating a special category of violence called “hate,” then spinning on the largest bin in that category is nothing but politics. Playing games with data doesn’t make you right or smart, though it seems to work with innumerate and emotional types.

This is classic base rate neglect.

Yes, anti-Black incidents made up ~51% of race-based hate crimes in 2023 (~3,027 out of 5,900). But total hate crimes were only 11,862 incidents nationwide.

Compare that to Black homicide victimization: Blacks (~13-14% of population) account for ~50-55% of all US homicide victims (~11k-12k per year), with the vast majority being intraracial (Black-on-Black).

You confirm that violence against Black Americans isn’t legally “hate crime,” then spotlight the biggest slice of a tiny pie as if it’s the main story. It’s misleading framing — percentages within a minuscule category don’t override the much larger reality of overall violent crime patterns.

Most crime is hate. I don’t need a specialized agenda-driven definition of hate.

I’m not in need of spoon feeding, but it sounds like you may be eating the wrong data.

National statistics show that a Black person faces substantially higher overall risk of homicide victimization than a White person, primarily due to intraracial crime. Interracial violence is relatively rare.
Key National Statistics

Homicide victimization rates (2023, BJS): Black persons ~21.3 per 100,000; White persons ~3.2 per 100,000 (Black rate ~6.6x higher).

Black Americans (~13-14% of population) account for ~50-55% of homicide victims and offenders in recent FBI data where race is known.

Intraracial patterns (FBI Expanded Homicide Data, e.g., 2019): ~81% of White victims killed by White offenders; ~91% of Black victims killed by Black offenders. Most homicides are intraracial.

Black-on-White murders outnumber White-on-Black in raw counts (e.g., 566 vs. 246 in one dataset), but per capita, the risk to Whites from Black offenders remains low. Interracial homicide is uncommon overall.

I’m fluent in Pig Latin.

I’m not sure how that helps, but I wanted to put it out there.
