RACISM

Have you ever been discriminated by a person that is not of the smae race you are? Well if its happen to you that is called rascism. Rascism is when a person discriminates against another because they feel that they're better than that person. This is a growing problem in the world today. You probably see racism every day of your life but don't realize because it comes in many different forms.

About a year ago a man was shot by police officers 41 times and he was unarmed. All the man had in his hand was a wallet and the police made it there priority to shot him 41 times. In this case the only reason I feel he was shot was because he was black. These officers were white and I feel that since they knew he was black and felt he was dangerous they reacted in a reckless manner. I feel that the majority of police officers are racist. The only reason they shot him so many times was because of the color of his skin. If it were a white man he probably wouldn't of been shot at all. If you disagree with me I have a perfect example that could prove my point. About a month ago a white man was standing on his roof waving a gun around and policr officers didn't shoot one shot at him. Now if that was a black person he probably would of been shot more than 41 times.

What I am trying to say is a lot of people still have racism inside of them. Blacks are not the only people that face racism now. Jews are another group of people that has rascist problems right now. There still people who believe in the Arayan Nation. Racism is probably the worst thing in this world now and it needs to be put to a stop.
