Racism

[im53rebelhipy]

WOW I caught this a little late, I'm an ole lady, but I lived in New Jersey, when all hell broke loose in this country in the sixties, I was a kid, I was being raised that there was no difference in people, but others thougth there was, buildings were burned, people were killed, parents were threatened not to let their kids go to school, we were kids we didn't understand what the hell our parents were fighting about. and why we couln't talk to or play with this person or why someone couldn't come to our home. and we didn't care, It all sucked.
AS KIDS WE DIDN'T CARE ABOUT COLOR, OR ANY OF THAT STUFF.
TOO BAD IT CAN'T STAY THAT WAY.
I taught my boys the the outside of a person is packaging it's whats on the inside that counts, and the person you condem today may be the person who saves your life tomorrow.

nice post

That's how I was raised too. My mom comes from a family of bigoted rednecks, so when she became a hippy she moved away from them before starting a family and teaching her children to embrace people's differences instead of hating them.

Racism exist because people of the said race gives it a reason...Just look at blacks..You say anything about them they dont like, your a racist, even if your pointing out statical stuff backed up by FACTS! Your still a racist. Blacks think everyone owes them something. Just look at new orleans and what happens when a chitload of blacks dont have anyone to arrest them, they loot pillage and rape young women. Or just go around a black neighborhood, its shambly because they refuse to work, they rather collect Welfare and sling their dope from the corner.

^^^ now if anything is racist that would be

Blacks think everyone owes them something.
Racism is caused by dickheads like you generalizing about another race, saying that they all hold in common something which they do not. Not all blacks think everybody owes them something, but I think the way our society has treated them, we need to do something to even out the scales, you know?


Just look at new orleans and what happens when a chitload of blacks dont have anyone to arrest them, they loot pillage and rape young women.
Who says these things were exclusive to the blacks in New Orleans? Looting and pillaging and rape would happen in the whitest of white places if the same thing happened. The reason so many blacks are driven to crime is because of their increased levels of poverty (remember, poverty is one of the single best predictors of crime, no matter what race you are), which is the natural consequence of our legacy of racism in this country. And when people like you keep insisting it's still their fault that they're stuck in the same miserable conditions, it only reinforces those hateful ideas. They've been blamed for their lower status in society for centuries now, but even with the end of slavery nobody has given them a means of getting themselves out of the hole that slavery pushed them into.

It's not as easy as just telling them to get a job and expecting them to somehow become our equals that way. The fact is, children of poor parents tend to grow up poor, and children of rich parents tend to grow up rich. It's not hard to see why; capitalism in its very nature perpetuates this inequality through inheritances, expensive education, etc. It's a lot easier to get a well-paying job when you're the son of a white Fortune 500 CEO than the son of a poor black woman in the ghetto. And it's a lot easier to get into crime from the ghetto than from the CEO's mansion.

wow tell us how you really feel!! First of all, all blacks are not like that, there are just as many white, people living off the system. There were white people looting, and how do you know who did the raping, the people in N. O. have every right to bitch, the whole mess was a cluster fuck, and the people responsible for that is FEMA and the people who would not leave. Priorties, ME
Me,(so I can save my family and others).
mE, (everything else is just stuff)
and by the way where do you score your stuff from

Disregard Tholiak. He goes out of his way to include racism in his posts about the hurricane. I go to college on Long Island, where a lot of poorer black kids from NYC attend. I smoke weed with a lot of them by night, but by day they are working hard in their classes, because they know how much of a gift it is to be in college after having grown up in poverty. And yes, some of them sling or have slung dope but Tholiak makes it sound like a bad thing, even though he's a pothead. Doesn't mean they're living off the system, sounds more like a self-sustained business venture.

The ol' man always told me that the color doesn't count, you have assholes in all races!

For being the "King" your acting more like the court jestor!!!

[Tholiak]

LoL. All I gota say. Yes I enjoy the herb. After work its great. But as for you, im no virgin to Rant boards. I grew up over at Brellrants. Ive learned to eat Liberals like yourself for breakfast. Only reason liberals come to defense of blacks is because they need their votes. Plane and simple. Racist has become a word used mainly to get people to stop pointing out your flaws which they act like they dont have. Ignorance is all it is.

[nicholasstanko]

guys,guys, guys.


i loved reading your posts, but pay no mind to "tholiak". anyone with half of a brain can see that it's really makor in disguise. dont argue with him, just let him ramble on.

[andruejaysin]

In the context you used it, it is spelled "plain" Ignorance is all it is.

that guy's an idiot. lol, i dont know if you remember , he once made an arguement ending with "point and case" instead of "case in point".

it was fucking hilarious, because he thought he was being so intelligent, and he's always talking about how dumb black people are.


just goes to show there's idiots in every race.

Assuming that an entire ethnic group has a collective flaw is...well, a by-the-book definition of racism.

You're racist. Be honest about it don't pretend that you aren't.

[andruejaysin]

Right, why are you guys ashamed of your racism? Was Hitler ashamed of hating Jews? Was the klan ashamed of hating blacks? Is the republican party ashamed of hating homosexuals? Of course not. Take pride in what you are.

[GHoSToKeR]

lol Wow. Tholiak, shut up.

This guy doesn't even deserve a proper response.

[beachguy in thongs]

.

Yes, he does.

The hurricane hit, like, two days before the whole place was about to be paid by their jobs, social security, welfare (which half of you, probably, qualify for), pensions, whatever. They were broke as are many Americans are at the end of the pay cycle. It's fucken expensive here and fucken a shithole in 90% of the places in the world.

These people were probably eating Saltines for dinner, anyway.

Next week, I'm sending a hurricane over your house, Tholiak. Be prepared and don't eat all of your crackers.

I'm sorry, I think I might have wanted this quote, instead.

Hah!!! It took me two days to figure out my mistake!!!
