Proud To Be White

Someone finally said it.

How many are actually paying attention to this?






There are African Americans,

Mexican Americans,

Asian Americans,

Arab Americans,

Native Americans, etc.

.....And then there are just -

Americans..




You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction.

You Call me 'White boy,' 'Cracker,' '******,' 'Whitey,' 'Caveman,'

.....And that's OK.




But when I call you ******, ****, Towel head, Sand-******, Camel Jockey,

Beaner, ****, or *****, .....You call me a racist.




You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you,

so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live?




You have the United Negro College Fund.

You have Hispanic History Month.

You have Martin Luther King Day.

You have Asian History Month.

You have Black History Month.

You have Cesar Chavez Day.

You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi.

You have Yom Hashoah.

You have Kawanza.

You have the NAACP.

And you have BET.




If we had WET

(White Entertainment Television)

.....We'd be racists.




If we had a White Pride Day

.....You would call us racists.




If we had White History Month

.....We'd be racists.

If we had any organization for only whites

to 'advance' OUR lives,

.....We'd be racists.




We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce,

a Black Chamber of Commerce,

and then we just have the plain

Chamber of Commerce.

Wonder who pays for that?




If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships

.....You know we'd be racists..




There are over 60 openly-proclaimed Black-only Colleges in the US ,

yet if there were 'White-only Colleges'

.....THAT would be a racist college.




In the Million-Man March, you believed that you were

marching for your race and rights.

If we marched for our race and rights,

.....You would call us racists.




You are proud to be black,

brown, yellow and red,

and you're not afraid to announce it.

But when we announce our white pride

.....You call us racists.




You rob us, carjack us, and shoot at us.

But, when a white police officer shoots a black gang member

or beats up a black drug-dealer who is running from the LAW and

posing a threat to ALL of society

.....You call him a racist.


I am proud.

.....But, you call me a racist.




Why is it that only

whites

can be racists?

Most men don't get outraged at the notion of male privilege (though they may not exactly feel passionate about ending it). Most wealthy people don't get outraged at the notion of class privilege. They acknowledge that it exists. But when racial privilege comes up, the reactions, for some reason, can be quite bitter.

We had a lot of threads spouting stuff like MPBsrs's back with City Data first began.
This is nothing new.
I dunno what to say. I see both sides. I've heard of affirmative action hirings which were less than successful.
However, White TV *IS* TV. But many just don't see that.
To me, this election is much bigger than what holiday is observed or what TV show is on. People who are proud of being white, pat yourselves on the back for being white. Me, I think it takes more than skin color to be a productive human being. I am voting for Obama, because he sees where we need to go, and can bring us together to accomplish it. But he has his work cut out for him.

Holy crap.

Well, can you just add a footnote to your posts from now on stating that you are white supremacist? if you're proud of it, shout it loud! It will benefit us all in evaluating your statements.
Geez, I had the same reaction to the OP. Just can't take it, but you guys sure can dish it, right? You guys are just setting things up for when obama loses. You just can't bully people into thinking they are racists if they don't want to vote for obama - his skin color is not even a factor for many - it's his ideology and a lot of other things.

I would have no problem voting for a non-white male for President, if I believed in him.

Honey, you outed yourself as a white supremacist, so anything else you say from here on out is COMPLETELY irrelevant.

Oh Excuse Me....

Guess we are racists because we're not voting for Obama.
