Why are white people being so petty?


It's kind of obvious that there is some sick sort of obsession going on here. Whats with the talk of how much chicken is going to be eaten by the audience watching this movie and why are white people so obsessed with harassing black people on message boards? Is it because most white "men" are cowards and know this is the only safe medium for their bigotry?

Why do Black people always use the race card while being racist themselves ?

You lose credibility when you make blanket statements about groups. Pointing fingers and ranting doesn't help because once learned, racism is very rarely unlearned. The only thing you can do about the problem of racism is to show everyone the same respect you would like to be shown... and teach the young folks to do the same.

Here's my deal. Just because a race isn't a minority, doesn't mean you can be racist. Ever heard of treat others the way you want to be treated? All hell would break loose if someone asked "Why are you Blacks on this board?" That is one of the stupidest statements I have ever heard. It's racist. If you think that you can only be racist towards black people, you're sadly mistaken and need to look up the definition. If you're going to judge someone on the color of their skin, you are being racist. There is no other word to describe it. It isn't right and you know it.
