The word "racism" has become a misused label in the United States.

I hope we have good one! Let's start off with your first argument about police brutality. You mention the transcripts of police using demeaning language. Can you provide the transcripts in your next post? This is out of pure curiosity. I've never heard of these transcripts and would love to analyze them. I agree with you that stereotypes should be corrected, however that isn't the point of today's debate. You say that stereotypes bring about a racist mentality. Could you provide evidence on that please? You also mention that there were videos where "a black person didn't have to die of those stereotypes didn't exist. " You are absolutely right! If the STEREOTYPES didn't exist (in this case that African Americans are more rebellious and not law abiding), many lives could have been spared, however this doesn't tie into racism. Again, my point is not that racism doesn't exist, but rather that it is wrongly applied in society. People believe that many deaths due to police are a factor of racism, but, as you just mentioned, these could be prevented if stereotypes didn't exist. Hence, get rid of stereotypes, prevent deaths, but again, no tie into racism.2. "You are considered racist if you speak against the Jewish people like any other race. " This doesn't really link into the topic. You are absolutely right in saying that only a handful of Muslims are terrorists, just because the Muslim ban affects a great deal of Muslims doesn't mean it's racist. "You are sending back somebody to Saudi Arabia because simply they are from Saudi Arabia. " Quick fact check, Saudi Arabia isn't on the list of countries in the "Muslim ban". You must understand that Trump's travel ban was aimed at Muslim majority countries. The fact that most terrorists derive from the Islamic religion means some action needs to be taken to atlas close some gates to possible terrorist openings. "One person from Saudi Arabia is being sent back literally because of the country they are from. " Again this is a flaw in understanding Trump's ban. His goal was not to have all these innocent people be sent back to their home countries. His plan was to try to tighten foreign entry into the United States in order to atleast decrease the possibility of a terrorist attack. People being sent back was, in a sense, collateral damage, one that can be argued was necessary, but what can't be argued is that the ban was racist. If it was, then you need to answer these questions:1. Why did Trump leave out Saudi Arabia and other countries that also have a majority Muslim population? If he left out some countries that are Muslim majority, obviously it was not an attack against the Muslim faith, but rather a defense against countries that terrorism stems from. It also happened that the countries that were blocked had high terrorism numbers.2. Why didn't Trump attack the Muslims living in the United States currently? Some of the terrorist attacks on the US derived from Muslims within the United States. This is because the ban was not to attack Muslims but rather to attempt and decrease chances of terrorism in the US. I'm not saying Trump's travel ban is perfect and going to stop terrorism, but peoples' attack on the ban on the basis that it is "racist" is ridiculous. Attack the logic of the ban, attack the practicality, but don't attack it saying it is racist because it isn't. You are correct in saying that the US has made Muslims into a race. This happens with nationalities, ethnicities, all other religions, color of skin, education level, etc. As long as there is no action taken against a specific population with the idea that the population is inferior, there is no "racism". It could be stereotyping or a multitude of other options, but the two arguments I brought up, police brutality and Trump's travel ban, is not "racist". It's just the people of America not understanding the term "racist".
