Portland Hotel Calls Cops On Black Guest For “Loitering”

Is Doubletree in Portland not Black Friendly? Does Doubletree in Portland checks the Black customers and visitors more than others? Good,I am going there soon! LOL!

Good grief, is there anything more tiresome than a white American male claiming that they are the real victim? That somehow they have to overcome such awful discrimination to succeed? I suppose that’s why they tend to be such Proud Boys: they really think they made it with the deck stacked against them. It’s pathetic.

I lived in Portland for 20 years and I'm white. In spite of some very progressive things about the City, @Tiffany and others dead on correct. It's the whitest major city in the country and Oregon has an awful history of racism including banning black people from the Oregon Territory, segregation (check out the VanPort flood and who lived there) and harassment of Asians. Ever wonder why Delta dropped its Portland hub in the 90's. It wasn't profitable because CBP had developed a well earned reputation of harrassing Asian passengers and they stopped using those flights. Racism is alive and well in Portland, sadly. Add to Portland's racist past and present the fact that that Doubletree is a badly managed POS in a neighborhood where there are, in fact, dodgy things happening and you have a recipe for stupid racist sh*t to happen. Portland is a great city but it has it's problems. That Doubletree is just a problem.

Again, you feel like you have no locus of control. So you effectively saying its not a white privilege thing (since the other races are better than whites) it's just an anti-black thing? Don't buy that, but at least that's more credible. Answer me this. Why did black society do well in America from 1865 until 1960, with a tight family unit, strong ownership of businesses and faster growing incomes than whites did? Why has since 1960 blacks under performed every other minority in the US? Surely you'll admit there is less racism in the US today than in 1865-1950s and more generations removed from slavery? So why underperforming now vs outperforming before then? In 1960, blacks were way further up the totem poll in the US than Asians and Hispanics and even the Irish in some areas not much before that. What's happened since then is the destruction of the black nuclear family, going from 80%+ in wedlock births and now 80% out of wedlock births. Children in black families born in wedlock have nearly identical success as whites. It's the out of wedlock that is causing most of the issues. "whitey" can't fix that, only the internal black culture. This whole argument, btw, is not even new or novel and goes all the way back to the Booker T Washington vs Frederick Douglas debate. B.T.Washington, 1911 - "There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs — partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.” I wasn't talking about "persecution" with white men on TV for crimes. I'm talking about typical commentary about them. Negative in 90% of media, the butt of nearly ever TV commercial, the white husband in every sitcom is portrayed as a bumbling idiot, etc. Reverse these for any other race and the outcry of "Racism!" would have companies, shows, etc shutting down faster than you blink your eyes. But because its a SWM? Free game.
