In light of "a string of break-ins" and "thugs" "hanging outside" in Flatbush, we were wondering if this "problem" would have cause so much stir at the Ditmas Park blog had the perceived "perps" were white teens. This video from ABC clearly shows that there is a double standard of how crime is perceived. Businessdictionary defines racism as
"Determination of attitudes and policies on the basis of racial characteristics, often due to racialism. Racism manifests in hatred and fear of people of different ethnicity, and in overt or covert attempts to keep them in subordinate (less important and less powerful) positions. Whereas individual racism is expressed usually in open antagonism and prejudice, institutional racism involves subtle structuring of organizations and systems in a tacit understanding to keep 'them' down or out."
As the video from ABC shows, the practices of the Ditmas Park blog is eerily similar to the reactions on the ABC experiment. The overzealous posts and obsession with "crime" while ignoring significant problems and police misconduct within the same precinct is uncanny. As these videos show. There is a huge problem with the "stop snitching" phenomenon, the problem is white people refusing to snitch on other white people, while they are tripping over themselves to snitch on minorities. Likewise as the video shows, it is highly likely that the reason that these car break-ins have not been solve is because the perpetrators could have been white teenagers.

Thank you for posting this. That is so enraging calling the police because three black kids were sleeping in their car while the three white kids was vandalizing a car. There's still racism in this world because of racist assholes like the ditmas park blog perpetrating their hate. There will always be racism. That's why we should stand for whats right. BOYCOTT EVERY BUSINESS THAT ADVERTISE with the ditmas park blog. I will never eat shop, drink or visit anything business that advertise with the ditmas park blog. They are part of the problem.
Is the ditmas park blog part of some sort of institutional racism? Probably. They have the power of propaganda. They mix and match news stories about restaurants and shops in between their racist post and bias. Fair and Balance just like fox news. What's the problem?
So let me get this straight. White people refuse to snitch on other white people, but the "Stop Snitching" problem is a black thing that only black street kids do?
We all know racism does not exist.
I'm sorry but it's very hard for me to trust any white person. They will smile at you in your face, claim how open minded they are and stab you in your back. Lesson to all. Be carefull who you choose to be friends with. Ad ditmas park gets more whiter, it's sad to say this but if you have a teenager their lives will be in more danger by the police. People talk about oversexed teens, but what about overcriminalized teens? Black american teenaged boys are the most overpoliced, over-scrutinized and overcriminalized demographic group in the world. The ditmas park blog is just showing why that is on a micro-level. This is how the sausage is made.
