maybe it is perfectly normal. but if the only difference between the dog is their fur colour then that would be pretty pointless as you wouldnt actually be at more of being bittennobody wrote:If dogs with white fur were going around biting people a lot more than dogs with black fur it's perfectly normal to want to keep your distance, no?DJoe wrote:
i know youre joking.
but yeah if one person was violent then yeah assume theyre violent
if you had a 2 groups of dogs, one that had black fur
the other had white
a white dog bites you
do you assume all the white dogs are more likely to bite you than the black one
you probably would assume
but youd be wrong to.
etc
The only difference between a black person and white person is their skin colour.
to assume that a black person is more dangerous is to assume that there is a difference between them and a white person other than skin colour.
To make that assumption you have to be basing it on racial ideology
ie there is such a thing as race. skin colour denotes what race you are. Races behave differently to each other.
this ideology has been proven wrong by anthropologists and biologists since the 70's
there maybe socially constructed differences between groups of people.
heavy handed policing against one group of people and not the other is just going to reinforce those socially constructed differences.
