If you don't know how racism works, I'm not going to explain it to you because you're probably either racist yourself or naive. Here's a link that will help you out because you seem to be either a troll or wanting me to explain the dynamics of racism: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=racism

I know what racism is. Thanks. Typical. Rational debate isn't even in your universe, continue to be ignorant, I'll continue to be a champion for rationality, logic, reason, and the vision of MLK.

As long as the news gives attention to these events like they do it will never end. People want attention whether it be from the news or people around them. This is just my opinion so let the attacks begin.
It's a shitty opinion and totally ignores the fact that racism is still a thing. Attack ends here because the opinion was so shitty that it was completely overcome by one statement. Try harder next time.

You're part of the problem. Treat people equally, stop making everything about race. Problem solved.

Approaching the world logically involves assuming everyone else approaches the world logically. Obviously people still believe in the imaginary man in the sky and all sorts of other silly things that aren't logical, (like say "white people are better than black people") and as long as these dumbasses believe this stupid shit, unfortunately the rest of us must overcompensate for them.

I have never denied that racism exists. I'm merely trying to get people to stop invoking racism into everything. Just because a minority is wronged by a person that is not a minority, does not mean it was racially motivated.

And when you have policies like Affirmative action, I don't want to see any minorties QQ'ing. They are against racism, except when it helps them and the fact that you can't see the hypocrisy reflects poorly on you and you alone.

No because it assumes that all caucasians act the same. Considering that according to the United States government people of middle eastern descent are considered caucasian, your argument is stupid.

You meant "act more like me". Because that's truly what people want, they want everyone to think/act like them because then they have nothing to fear because nothing is different and they don't have to learn anything. Because people are dumb.

Oh I GET IT NOW!!!! So if those damn BLACKS would quit acting like they were owed something for slavery, then the WHITES would automatically stop hating them!

Still a shitty opinion. You still need to try harder.

So since Im half indian shouldn't I be owed way more then anyone in the US. I mean we were slaves, our lands were stolen. Our people were murdered. I dont hate people Im just sick of hearing people say they are owed things. I recently had a friend tell me how bad he was treated in georgia cause of racism. I know all about it trust me. Racism will never end cause people will always look at people differently. Its just the way things are.

Good lord you people act like they're handing out stacks of $100 bills on the corner to anyone who is black and handing out jobs to blacks just because they're black.

Affirmative action barely exists anymore. It was put in place ONLY in certain areas where there were disparities and blacks were not well represented in comparison with the general population. If you personally know anyone who has recently been adversely affected by affirmative action or reparations, please tell your story here and I'll apologize. But don't just go spouting off that something is hypothetically bad when you can't even claim how or why or to what degree.

Help me out then....why is there a large number of college scholarships for those of African-American descent that are not open to causacians? Much larger number than those available only to whites...because that number is zero.


Then tell me why there is a Black Caucus in congress...many Black academic clubs at opublic colleges all over the United States, etc etc etc. If I tried to start a 'White Accounting Club' while I was in school, the first ophone call I would have received would have been from the ACLU, followed by Jesse Jackson.

Please tell me how the acceptance of this in our society today is not racist?

So you are logical and anyone who thinks different than you is illogical?

The solution to racism is simple. Send all the blacks back to Africa, Mexicans to Mexico, Cubans to Cuba, Puerto Ricans to Puerto Rico, Asians to Freaky Deeky SexLand and Arabs to Durka Durkastan. No more racism, problem solved. You're welcome America.

I'll agree that people play the race card too much, but GTFOH if you don't think that discrimination and racism still exists.
