Who were the Etruscans?



Etruscan mother and child, 500–450 BC (Wikipedia, Etruscan Civilization)


The most mystic thing in the Etruscans is their language. 


The DNA tests are proof that the DNA of that mysterious ethnic group that ruled the Italian peninsula before Romans is ordinary in that area. That means the origin of the Etruscans was in Asia Minor. The question is where do those people start to use that language?  Was it happening in Asia Minor? Or did those people start to use Etruscan in the Italian Peninsula? The thing that makes Etruscans interesting is their language? There are no known language relatives for that unique language. So who were Etruscans?

The thing is that the Etruscans who lived in the Italian Peninsula before Romans were a group of native people who absorbed their unique language and other behaviors like social codes from some ethnic group. Behaves of those people were common in Greece women were also allowed to participate in parties. 



"Extent of Etruscan civilization and the twelve Etruscan League cities". (Wikipedia, Etruscan Civilization)

And the position of women was better than in Ancient Greece. But otherwise, the behavior of those people was quite similar. So there is an "idol theory" that is introduced to explain the position of Etruscans. The "idol theory" is simple that the Etruscans were "fans" of some idol. The idea for that theory is coming from a human need to imitate their idols. 

So were the Etruscans some kind of servant for some other ethnic group? 

So maybe the original Etruscans were some people whose behavior and language transferred to local people. And that means the original Etruscans might be very respected people who might be some kind of nomads.  And the people who used that name of their community wanted to adapt the language that their idols used. 

There is the possibility that the first Etruscans were some warrior group that came from Asia Minor. And then people who contacted them started to use their language. But there might be a long journey between the source language. And the language what those people used in the Italian peninsula. The thing is that we don't know. Where the people who used Etruscans language started to use it. Did that thing happen in Asia Minor or was it happen in the Italian Peninsula?

Why is the color of the skin mentioned only when criminal is black?

When some police organization works with racialist methods, that would mean that every time, when the officer of the law uses the personal check for racist reasons, the time of law enforcement would spend in unnecessary work. Also, racism and ethnically profiled person means, that officers would get the predictive attitude, that the major ethnical group, what is controlling politics of the nation would not make any crimes. When we are talking about making an ethnic profile, we must same time ask one question: does that mean the personal check for fun? Or does it have some other mean? When police would go to person and ask id papers because the color of the skin, that would be ethnic profile, the hat is known as racism.


When we are talking about the crimes, what are made by black persons, we might think the Hollywood movies, where black gangs are controlling some neighborhood and sell crack to kids. And this means that the attitude of law enforcement would be, that color of the skin makes people criminals. There is any way to make algorithms for handling criminals, but the ethical profile is not the very effective version of that. Of course, the active member of Muslim community, who would be open radical is the potential terrorist, but also the white skinhead can make terror-attacks, like McVeigh the bomber of Oklahoma made.


McVeigh was white criminal, who attacked office building with bombs. And somebody has claimed that his action and same way some school shootings were blocked if those people were black. But the racism has caused that the officers would not take white treaters seriously, because they are all the time busy while they are checking black person's identities. And during this kind of operations, some white guys would give open threats to society, but they are not taken seriously, because the attitudes are that white persons even cannot make any crimes.


And here we must ask one question: could somebody suspected that everything was not all right if the black person would carry the boxes full of firearms to some hotel room in Las Vegas? When are we talking about racism, why the color of the skin doesn't mention in the cases, where mass shooters or some kind of that criminals are white?


Why always are blacks mentioned, when they make something by the color of the skin? This means that every kind of militarism and radicalism are the danger for national security, and the anger talks and writings about armed violence against some social or ethnical groups are marked for violent behavior. Also supporting the criminal organizations and boosting threats with pictures of weapons are the mark of violent behavior. Police forces mission is to protect the citizens and co-operate with citizens for targeting the criminal organizations, not scatter the society.


The scattering makes possible that some radical organizations would recruit the new members in their lines. And that's why racism is an intolerable way to make official work. If some ethnical group would be targeted with racist actions of the officials, that would make them easy targets for the radical group's recruiters. That is one reason, why racism is not the very good way to make police work.
