but the reason we're considered racist and no one else is because the technical definition of being racist is a MAJORITY group being discriminatory towards a minority.
I'm not saying that other people doing mean things to white people is right, I'm just saying that's the actual reason why other groups really cant be racist, if you want to play technicalities.
I still think it's all wrong. I dont think we should have "pride" days for ANYONE. I think we should recognize our differences, but we should celebrate our similiarities since we're the 'melting pot', afterall.
I'm not attacking your post. I agree with a lot of it. The reason for stuff like BET and NAACP is the belief that the other channels are geared towards whites, that other companies give scholarships to whites, not blacks, and so they create these things in order to have a presence. Also, a lot of them were created when racism was a huge problem.
I totally agree that we are not the most racist. I think the worst part of society is constantly turning criminal cases into race issues.
Also, I feel it's hard for us to understand. Our country is number one to us. We are Americans. Not polish, irish, german. AMERICANS. With other people, the country is number 2. First and foremast, they are black or chinese, etc.

I totally agree with this post, i think it's fucking brilliant in fact. It's a point i have been arguing for quite sometime now. I agree with the points made but you forgot about other things like affirmative action. If a mesurement was instated that allowed less educated whites to get into colleges easier than more educated black i think we'd see a second civil war.
I think people should quit bitching about equality until they decide to practice what they preach.
my neighbor that we hang out with is arab and he likes when we call him sand nigger and camel jockey. except he doesnt really look arab because hes a cross breed - his mom is full arab and his dad was a total redneck. isnt that interesting.

My point is that I'm all for equality, and the "minority" deserves the same treatment as the "majority" gets.
But when things like this come up and we are deemed racist is just absurd to me, regardless of what the definition says.
