So your telling me a black male in Cabrini Green projects in Chicago, dressed in hip hop clothes, followed by police is the same as
a white male, college educated, preppy dressed, driving a BMW?
Get off the drugs, get back to reality!
Come off it, already.
Who gets followed more by police? A college-educated, preppy dressed black man driving a BMW, or some punk looking white kid with a mohawk, a leather jacket and a ring in his nose? You really think this is ALL about race?

You ever visit the south? Tell them racism is dead.
Ignorance is the ultimate evil...labeling people is foolish...yes, the south is full of heyseed racists...what a joke. don't perpetuate stereotypes to asuage your guilt. i live in stalingrad west, and trust me...ever talk to a ny liberal democrat? tell me racism is dead.
you are the racist, you look at everything through this racial prism...and you just use it to divide. what's preposterous is that in the big picture you really don't give a damned about race...
And you ask me what I want this year
And I try to make this kind and clear
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
Cuz I don't need boxes wrapped in strings
And desire and love and empty things
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days

Come on, hippiemom...you know that it all boils down to race. If you're white, everything is given to you...if you're black, life is a living hell.

I'm an atheist and atheists have no morals. But I'm white so I'm prejudice. Is there anything I am that isn't going to get me a derogatory statement?
I necessarily have the passion for writing this, and you have the passion for condemning me; both of us are equally fools, equally the toys of destiny. Your nature is to do harm, mine is to love truth, and to make it public in spite of you. - Voltaire

This is ridiculous. I get accused of being a bleeding-heart liberal and hyper-sensitive to race issues, and even I think this is way over the top. I really resent the implication that black people don't go to Yale and can't afford BMWs, and that all white people are college educated and driving around in fancy cars. That right there is a racist statement in itself. I dislike all stereotyping, even when it's coming from somewhere close to my spot on the political spectrum.
Personally, I think classism is more prevalent than racism, at least where I live.

My god, listen to yourself! Who's the racist? There are black people at Yale, and white people in slums.
and if your kid carnivore things are racial harmony, race doesnt exists to the population anymore. Blacks are no longer victims of racism anymore. right?
I mean thats what your saying.
What i find funny is kid carnivore is one of those chief illiniwik fans. Who tells native americans "get over it, its just a mascot".
Its very interesting the state of race today, when no one, on this board, forget if they agree with my politics, admits that whites are born with power and priveledge that blacks dont have.
Very enlightening
Pearl jam should do a record about race. They did one about Iraq.

I DO think that white people have more power and privilege in our society, but that doesn't change the fact that your posts in this thread make liberal use of racist stereotypes.

Whites are never judged on one person. Anna Nicole smith isnt indicative of the entire white race. But if a black male rapes a white female, then all blacks are thugs and such.
.
you say this, yet in your first post you say "50 things I as a white male are(am, BTW) given AUTOMATICALLY!!"
for some reason this seems odd...
they call them fingers, but i never see them fing. oh, there they go

self-absorbsionism is more prevalent than either wherever I have lived....i'm not sure that's a word though!

if its not about race then what is it about friend?
What was katrina about
the fact that you attach race with katrina illustrates your racism, not to mention your self-loathing, paranoid world.

please quote for me where I said blacks dont go to yale and all whites are college educated. I never said that.
Dont EVER misquote me. Get your facts straight if your gonna discuss this stuff.
I am a hippie myself, but I find it amazingly disappointing when I cant even be quoted accurately. You guys must be using some crazy drugs today.
To even suggest, I, who am notorious on this board for long winded rants about white youth joining blacks and other races to overthrow the govt and create a world of peace love and unity, to even suggest I am saying that all whites are rich and all blacks are poor or whatever is absurd.
your pretty much fucked. guess u have to lie to please people eh?
Pretty much, it turns out people can't handle the truth anyway.

Please tell me how I have offended blacks or latinos or people of other races. Other than that its not racism. Its prejudice.
I never said all blacks came from cabrini green or were from the projects.
You obviously havent ever seen my posts before.
Stop telling me what I believe and actually grow some guts and ask it.

Put down the drugs and READ
JERK!
I don't use drugs, unless you want to count chemotherapy and legally prescribed pain pills, and I haven't had any of those today.
All of your examples paint the black man as being poor and downtrodden, and the white man as being in an exalted position. You are perpetuating racist stereotypes when you post shit like this.

Stop posting racist crap
this message is so hypocritical......
so let me get this straight,you are saying anyone who lives in the south is a stupid confederate loving, union hating, nigger whipping(dont take this as racism please!), slave loving hick? i dont think so....
why dont YOU stop posting racist(and stereotypical, might I add) "Crap"?
they call them fingers, but i never see them fing. oh, there they go
if anything I am more problack and pro other races than pro white so to be accused of being antiblack and antilatino is absurd.
So that's your motivaton? To never be called racist by a black person?

And are you promoting prejudice by posting complete crap and nonsense and not asking me if I actually believe what you are suggesting I do in fact believe.
Learn to ask people. Dont assume.
Please tell me where i said ALL black men are poor.
If you can do that fine. If not, shut up. Plain and simple, hippiemom. Plain and simple. Shut up
so you dont honestly believe that any of these are right?
Che....quite a few of them are extremely true....even if no one wants to admit it.
No one is saying that blacks can't or don't or won't succeed; but acting like some of those subtleties and sometimes unconscious nuances in our behavior don't exist is just plain naive.
I don't know what the point of this thread was, I just know that it offered up some very real, abeit uncomfortable truths.
