^^^^ funny stuff...sounds straight out a KKK handbook. Better go hop in bed with your sis...she won't threaten you.

Sorry no KKK here. I have friends of different races but I'm not gonna sitback and act like I like all the shit that's going on. I have eyes and ears. You can go on believing that everybody can sit around and sing koombayah if you want but it just is'nt going to happen, regardless of what I think. Until the social inequalities that plague us are solved it's gonna be pretty damn hard for the majority of us to mesh well imo.

Race is a social construct to keep us divided..another example.. dems vs repubs..there is only one race...the human race..

It's sad to see such ignorance in this day and age.

How is not wanting to associate with people because of their general attitudes and the way they carry themselves ignorant? Its hard to be white now in day....black pride..good for you...white pride...your in the KKK. . That's not directed at the KKK comment. If your a white guy by your self and there is a group of thug looking black guys (or skin heads if your black) leering at you a little down the street would you say oh maybe they want to hold my hand and smoke with me...no, I'm sure as hell going to feel threatened. This go's for all races before I get called racist. If it looks like a duck and walks like a duck I'm going to assume its a duck.

Not wanting to associate with people because of their attitudes and way they carry themselves is in no way ignorant. But to simply discount all other races/ cultures, stating "I have problems with people from other backgrounds and cultures" most certainly is. I'll admit I have absolutely no desire to hang out, or even come into contact, with a bunch of thug looking black guys. But that doesn't mean I am going to avoid blacks all together. And, I wouldn't want to hang out with a bunch of thug looking white guys either. I agree that " If it looks like a duck and walks like a duck I'm going to assume its a duck" but I'm not going to assume everything with feathers is a duck.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying white America should just open it's arms to all the various aspects of other cultures. Hardly, some aspects of other cultures are pretty fucked up. What I'm saying is, if we ever want to solve the "social inequalities that plague us"; then all cultures need to stop being so resistant to accepting other cultures, as a means of preserving thier own culture. Actually, I think that White America is much better in this regard than many other cultures. And, if you look around, you'll see that out of the various non-white immigrant groups in the U.S., it is those that have allowed themselves to assimilate (while still retaining their own culture) that have done best for themselves.Which brings me back to my original point that cultures need to mix.

i concur

affirmative actions got white males these days by the balls. reverse racism goes even as far as, black history month, black scholorships, black colleges (segregation?!!? wtf), black jobs...the list goes on, getting benifits because ur a minority is a fluke and a joke, if a person, no matter their race or gender deserves a job, and will perform that job better than someone eles regardless their race or gender, they should get the job, to bad it doesnt work like that, if theres uneven ammount of blacks on in a firehouse or police sqaud, the ncaa is ontop of their ass, i dont wanna sound racist, im not race biased, im just looking at how fucked up society is becoming....

I worked for a 4x4 manufacturing giant and to say that white people don't enslave black people anymore is far from the truth with that in mind. Every day the process leaders and process managers would crack the whip. It wasn't a Bull Whip, it was the threat of being fired for incompetence while being over burdened with roles to fulfill that didn't match the allocated time..! errrrr And those being whipped were from a range of genetic backgrounds. different guise? similies and metaphors, not literally; that would be too simple

thats so much fuckin bullshit...they cracke dthe whip by threatening them to be fired?...dude lets get real...the mexicans are replacing everyone, and they work alot harder for alot less...now we got affirmitive action putting blacks in places they dont deserve, in todays society equality doesnt mean who evers the most competent gets the job, now its if theres 5 white people, that means theres gotta be 5 black people to, just so its "equal"

not only that but now i gotta live my life with black constantly assuming i owe them something...i owe them because my great great grand father beat their great great grandfather...i had fuckin control over that...i view people equally..society creates these barriers of inequality, just to uphold a twisted sense of equality, it is over with, u show me a black guy with scars from a whip that a white man put on there....u cant...theyre all dead...i dont owe them shit...
