    I don't think @Reeko meant this definition from Urban Dictionary.

    Cooning
    When you dip your balls in chocolate or some sort of dark liquid and proceed to give someone Arabian goggles so their eyes look like a raccoons.

    In my white guy understanding...Uncle Tom is the noun. Cooning is what an Uncle Tom does. Reeko please correct me if I am wrong

    @reekob

    It was a random event. It wasn't going to become an epidemic. Again you do way more tangible things to young black men. I'm not going to act like that was going to start happening everywhere and the media to try portray the story that way

    I do feel bad for the victims but it was a random one time event

    Just you don't worry about crime I don't worry about something like that

    I. Ot giving a **** about obe racist getting loose

    people like Candace Owens, Mark Robinson who says things like black people owe reparations for slavery, Jason Whitlock, pgabriel, etc are the scum of the earth

    no shame, no honor, no integrity, no self-respect

    they are all playing characters in a modern day minstrel show

    I think Reeko needs a timeout/suspension from the moderators. He has turned very hostile, racist and vulgar in this thread. Sad to see such a lack of self control. We are all just trying to exchange ideas here.

    Brah it's even more sad that you aren't some spam account and are a 2000er. That means there is a grown ass man behind that keyboard saying this **** with sincerity. You are probably old enough for grand kids. You are past this age of edgelording. Grow the **** up emotionally.

    You are no longer funny or interesting. This character is quite dated now. It is time to come up with another one.

    yes, I understood the reference. I just a word I would never use, not unlike the N word, imo.

    I think Black people are the ones to decide if Coon is as derogatory as the N word.

    I just read through this thread and I don’t really follow wha the point of this thread is or that the point of what the OP is getting too.

    I agree that migrants aren’t responsible for a spike in crime and crime rates have been dropping for decades. There was a spike in crime during COVID but that has come down. I don’t follow then what this has to do with Democrats not talking about crime to appease black voters. If there isn’t a spike in crime and crime has been declining why should Democrats be talking about crime?

    Also the Buffalo mass shooting was certainly not random. It was specifically planned with the setting of it specifically chosen. This wasn’t just someone losing it mentally and then shooting whoever was convenient. Also to point out that while mass shootings are a very small part of overall crime they still happen far too frequently in the US when compared to other countries of similar development level.

    I didn't mean to get caught off in those other issues, I was responding to posters. Reeko brought up Buffalo.

    The thread title is why I started the thread. It's straight from the article title and it's the biggest plank in the Republican platform.

    People got upset about spike in crime so I gave my opinion on how Democrats talk about crime but I'm not a crime is out of hand voter

    Edit: Republicans are overtly racist on the topic of migrants and crime. Them talking specically about spike in crime due to migrants is something I hadn't heard. I just was referring to article title

    Do you think Democrats should be talking about crime more?

    I think they need to not ignore it. I think there needs to be honesty when it comes up. What does that mean? It's just my impression. Crime is an issue for a lot of voters.

    I don't think talking about young black males and crime if the topic comes up doesn't take away from what Democrats try to do for the Black community or doesn't take away from historical causes

    Democrats in addressing policing doesn't mean tip toe around crime

    I don't mean to point out JuanValdez, but for instance he was critical of John Whitmire saying he wants to increase police numbers in Houston during the mayoral campaign. Well there is a controversy in Houston with HPD having to delay investigating crimes as serious as sexual assault due to lack of officers.

    People don't want to be cops anymore

    Edit; you're a very smart and well reasoned, patient poster. Read the thread. The way the left is triggered by the thread title is ridiculous and it demonstrates how Democrats treat crime. The article and study talked about spike

    Everyone is all is all freaked out I'm just quoting a mainstream press organization.

    The theme of the study is Republicans are wrong about migrants and crime. Debating a spike is fair, reacting as if the topic is crime is not fair

    @rocketsjudoka

    I understand why some may think I was trying to talk crime due things things I have written in the recent past. I regret a lot of things I have written about broken homes but not everything. That being said black on black crime is an issue for me but not crime in general

    As white people we absolutely have no right to use the terms "cooning" and "Uncle Tom". However @Reeko can absolutely use those terms.

    I'd like to see the name calling in this forum taken down a notch, generally. it'd improve the discourse.
