Those are clubs based on ancestoral nationality not race. Keep trying it's fun to watch. You just don't get it. It's about whites collectively as Americans not former nationalities.

OK, less facetiously, but as accurate, here's the difference. White folks are in the majority. Their self-help groups tend to be anti- someone else, not pro-white.

This is not just verbal gymnastics, either. Think of colleges in the sixties: We had black colleges, white colleges, Jewish colleges and even a Polish college. Which fostered the aims of their target audience, but let anyone in? I think you can appreciate the difference. Ole Miss was a lot different in being pro-white than Jackson State was in being pro-black.

You want to have a pro-white organization, then trumpet your ethnicity. No one will call you racist. However, if you start assembling to protect the rights of downtrodden white folks who are shut out of jobs, colleges and the Congress, then people will look at you skeptically.

It's not about being "shut out" of anything, it's about realizing that other groups are hijacking the political process to trumpet their ethnocentrism at the expense of the rest of us and whites now want the right to organize collectively to stop our rights from being eroded. You see whites the only ones dumb enough to believe in "equality" and being "color blind." Every other race in America organizes and votes based on their best interests. White naivety is being taken advantage of currently and some of us want it to stop. The thing is people can walk around saying "black power," "Jewish pride," or "Mexican pride" all day long and get applauded. Whites can't even show any racial self awareness without risking their job. This is in part because other races and ethnicities have banded together to game the political system in their favor.

Amnesty and open borders hurt white workers (hell they hurt black workers even worse) yet, if whites bring that point up we're just assured we have some mythical "privilege" and not to worry about it. Meanwhile Hispanic groups and politicians continue to demand amnesty and open borders because it helps them even though it screws over the rest of us. Affirmative action hurts white and Asian males, yet this doesn't stop women's groups, blacks, Hispanics, etc. from calling for more and crying "racism" anytime someone talks about ending them.

Well considering this nation was founded by white Europeans, for white Europeans, why shouldn't that be the case? 40 years ago this nation was 90% white, within 20 years we will be a "majority minority" nation. Why can we not read the tea leaves, see the way the wind is shifting, and organize to make sure our rights are acknowledged and protected?

Actually, no. Only black folks in the civil rights movement in the 20th century pushed all folks as equal.

White folks in Boston, Philly and Detroit played catchup after they were discrimminated against. When (for instance) did the Irish in Boston say they were equal? The Kennedys said instead: "Don't get mad, get even" So white ethnic groups never said that all folks were equal.

Man! Have you never seen the St. Patrick's Day or Columbus Day parades? There was a 'Redneck festival' in a city with a black mayor. How did you think he welcomed them? You parrot too many allegations without verification.

You ever hear anyone complaining about the ethnicity of the queen of the St. Patrick's Day parade? Anyone call those judges racist?

Its easy to say "BS" but you need to verify your allegations.
