I don’t get much into psychology or the news, what bias is that?

The video I saw was the ex-NFL wash up throwing the first punch and he consequently was the only person to get arrested in the altercation. This is backed up by news reports and police reports.

This is by no means a defense in the actions of someone representing UAL. Terrible all around. Just want to set the facts straight.

Well, UGE isn’t much of a puncher, but legallly, he performed the first act of battery. Fortunately, the video shows this. Secondly, the police have proven themselves, throughout the entirety of American history, to be biased and unfair when dealing with non whites. Lastly, the American news outlets are the one’s reporting that Langley struck first. The international media operates outside the funk of American bias.

This was stupid and unnecessary. Langley will have charges dropped and receive a generous settlement for an undisclosed amount of money. Karenism is getting expensive.

Oh, I see you explained above. So you brought the racial aspect into this argument by introducing the idea of this bias.

That’s a fact. Police bias, eyewitnesses (karens) bias and jury bias is real and no amount of book banning will change it

I wanted to make sure you’re humble enough to admit you brought race into this by bringing up the bias. Maybe even admit your own biases, I don’t know. Takes a real man to be humble.

Or you could keep screeching at people that it wasn’t a conversation about race until they brought it up.

I’m not that humble. And certainly disagree with you simplistic conclusion . Police bias is an American problem, not a racial problem. You should chew on that a minute.

Fumes,

Your argument applies to lots of cases…..but it kinda falters when you acknowledge that the employee isn’t white.

Is a black dude a “Karen” if he picks on another black dude? I don’t think the employee is of African descent, but then you need a hierarchy for police preference for different races. Also, given that police in the greater NYC area probably represent racial diversity better than most places in our country, you’d need to know the exact race of the arresting officer.

Basically, you’ve got a lot of assumptions in place for this to be racist. The far easier explanation is that a bullied kid now has an ounce of authority and didn’t know how to back down when someone didn’t like his request. Sounds like an average day in NJ.
