The first post got deleted.

The second post has been moved to current events where it will receive less traffic despite the fact it directly relates to living in Korea.

I'm merely saying that I'm not satisfied as of yet that we have enough to make a judgement about the cops in this case.


I beg to differ. My bruises don't go dark purple immediately, do yours? Even boxers in the ring are still red-faced after 36 minutes of pounding (not including rest time.)

How Long Do Bruises Last?

You know how a bruise changes color over time? That's your body fixing the bruise by breaking down and reabsorbing the blood, which causes the bruise to go through many colors of the rainbow before it eventually disappears. You can pretty much guess the age of a bruise just by looking at its color:

* When you first get a bruise, it's kind of reddish as the blood appears under the skin.
* Within 1 or 2 days, the hemoglobin (an iron-containing substance that carries oxygen) in the blood changes and your bruise turns bluish-purple or even blackish.
* After 5 to 10 days, the bruise turns greenish or yellowish.
* Then, after 10 or 14 days, it turns yellowish-brown or light brown.

Finally, after about 2 weeks, your bruise fades away.


First thing I would have said to the cops: "Look at his bruise. Kick me and check it in thirty minutes."

well what kind of views? can you give some examples?

In all fairness its hardly surprising considering the treatment he receives is it? Everyone knows how black people are treated in this country its no special secret.

But you are not black are you? therefore you wouldnt be subject to the same kind of verbal onslaught that Metropolitician received by the ajossi.

and just because it has never happened to you doesnt mean that:
a) it doesnt happen to other people
b) it couldnt happen [to you] in the future

It would be more convincing to someone like myself who has managed to spend a few years in Korea, and never once be part of something like this.


I think everyone accepts that Drunky McDrinkytoomuch is a racist git, but people are saying that the police are too - I think there's no strong evidence of it here.

And I have to agree with Komerican. Metropolitican has some very stong opinions about race and racism, and respected as he may be - I have no doubt they inform his accounts of things.

LMAO

Also, you've gotta give Komerican some credit for his resilliance - if nothing else. He just keeps coming and coming (not in that sense) with his apologist gun.

Komerican sparkling, the apologist for Korea in the 21st century indeed
