Black people complain about how people portray them. But if you actually listen to black media they portray them selfs this way. It’s sad.

What a waste! Giving a POS like this a second chance at life to appease race hustlers when it was obvious he was not a worthy recepient.

interviews whit the parents of someone who has done some horrible shit and say they where a good kid and didnt do it

Saving a life doesn’t always mean something productive is done with it.
rfrostmiles
No, but with limited transplants, it should go to someone who isn’t going to actively hurt others.
DollyPartonLover1
The kid in the picture went on to burglarize a home, shoot at an old woman for calling the cops, and then stole a car, went on on police 1/2

Are white people taking these pictures of him? No? https://media1.tenor.com/images/cc5b8c81453e8279aca62738830d6876/tenor.gif?itemid=4456385

Right or wrong, their claim is that white people pick stupid photos out of all possibilities. Another stupid photo doesn't disprove this.

You simple minded people only whites can be racist DUUHH.

If she didn't have to remain professional, a good "Now sit down and shut up" would have been in order.

I can hear the sarcastic "sit down and shut up tone" just reading her professional response though
DeeDoubleYu
better left unsaid, hits harder ^^
DukePhelan
I personally think that our society's evident fear of calling out blatant bullshit is letting it propagate at an alarming rate.
WhiteNateDogg
A professional response is more effective at actually changing minds. When you get defensive, your guard goes up and you learn nothing. 1/2.
WhiteNateDogg
But it would have been so fucking satisfying.
soapydux
You mean ‘shut the fuck up’?

Makes you wonder who was denied the heart he got and if they would have been better stewards of that gift. How rotten is "street" culture?
xedative
He WAS denied. His family organized protests outside the hospital building so that their good boy get his transplant.
imightnotbelonghere
And I wonder what the heart donor's family has to say about all this. Very sad
TheLochNessOtter
My understanding is that they're not allowed to know this. Thank god. I'd hate to think the donated heart of a loved one went undeservingly

It'll be even more of a waste when cops shoot centre mass.
EdgelordPrime
I'm pretty sure this guy is dead already, though. Crashed a stolen car or some shit, almost exactly one year after the transplant.
K592
If they miss the heart, they could transplant it into another gang member.
kr662
Let's hope not or for the cops to double tap.
metascout
At that point it would be more like reclaiming gene seed
DonutJustice
This was in ATL and the family held protests claiming the hospital racist for not initially giving him a heart bc of his criminal record.
DonutJustice
Of course they give him a heart and he goes and commits more crime... Shame really
metascout
Shoulda given him some of that donut justice, that’ll teach him
yurameki
If only there was a way to ascertain likelihood of future crimes. Some kind of "record", maybe.
TeachKindness
ldbv1983
Well. Now that you mention it, it should be part of the requirements, you know, a clean criminal record.
WindJackaI
Carjacking does not deserve a death sentence in my opinion
FelixG
If I had to pick between two kids to give a heart to, and one of those kids was a car thief and the other wasn't... I know who I would pick.
WindJackaI
Why? Do you believe people can never improve? Once a criminal, always a criminal? Why not just shoot them right away then?
DoIvIiNaTo72
Absolutely. Sure you shouldnt be denied the right but sure as shit would be at the very end of the list with the rest of the pos's.
tg2222222
What about minor offenses?
swagb98623
Like minor theft auto?
MusterTheRohirrim
I don't know about that... After someone has done their time, they shouldn't be treated as a criminal forever.
nettiebean
I agree. Harder to get jobs -> back to crime -> back to jail. Some change their life, but it's hard. IMO, not all crimes are equal though
DonutJustice
It was or is but they had to relax that rule for the kid bc of media pressure. It was a PR nightmare for the hospital
YouLilShit
It’s not determined who gets the heart by the hospital though?
KraftyKev
Fucking media.
Zahnradfee
Even criminals have human rights.
KraftyKev
Yeah, but you give up certain rights when you, you know, commit a crime.
NomoNomNom
Agreed, but I think there's a grey area here. E.g. smokers don't often get a new lung because they have a higher risk of messing it up.
SuperHir0
There is a difference in committing a crime in desperation or need than being balligerent and doing it just because. /
Redtide
Agreed. Just because someone had a criminal history does not mean all situations would end up like this.
EveryonesCousin
I hope someday he figures himself out :(
BklynPunisher
Too late he’s dead. Someone else posted a link.
MeowMachine12
Pretty sure he died

Probably had his reasons. I'm not saying what he did was good, just don't like being too quick to judge.

Projection. Racists will call other people racist at the slightest offense. It works with most negative traits as well.
MrJBK99
Lol. Exactly what the parent comment is doing.

Whether you agree or not with their point, how is their decrying perceived racism racist??
WhiteNateDogg
True, white people do this all of the time as well.
Wastyvez
It's become a conservative trend of mental gymnastics nowadays. They know white men are the most privileged social group in our society 1)
NotoriousDuchess
Lol, speaking of mental gymnastics, how did you make this about white men? I know they're very powerful, but that was a bit of a stretch...
Wastyvez
Do you have any knowledge of sociology whatsoever? It is an undeniable fact that in our society there is an imbalance between social 1)
Wastyvez
groups. It's not as bad as it once was, but it's still there. As much as you try to pretend we are all equal, objectively we are not. 2)
Wastyvez
yet don't want to acknowledge that said social majority is inherently advantaged or that systemic bigotry exists thus disparage any 2)

There is a huge difference in acknowledging that white men are privileged in society, and rolling over when a a racist targets you.

Well you could be sympathetic. Stealing includew many culprit who aren't that bad.
Usernameisalreadyregisteredwasalreadyregistered
There are things to sympathize with, sure. It would've been nice if he didn't make the choices he did. But, in the end, he made them and (1)
Usernameisalreadyregisteredwasalreadyregistered
those choices should be scorned and he should not be defended for having made them.

She's implying that he's innocent and this is a conspiracy. His posing with a gun, mock stick-up, likely did nothing to sway her resolve.

They're saying that the media picks unflattering pictures of black people. They're probably wrong in this case, but you're misrepresenting.

He was suspected of stealing a car. These people aren't talking about a convict.

It's more about hypocrisy than racism. Calling someone else a racist while clearly being a racist yourself is very hypocritical.
