I guess I should hate Native Americans, because my GGG grand parents were killed in a Seneca raiding party.

I guess I am very anti-racist in every way down to the point where I will not use the word caucasian to describe European Americans and I have a very difference family and friends. But when I hear this kind of crap it just makes me so ticked off. I understand and sympathize with the issues of race in the past and present but I can not feel right turning a blind eye when it is the tables are turned.

Hate is hate and hate breeds hate; ignoring it only makes it worse.
I think because white people invented hate crimes.

I'm not full of hatred. I am disgusted all the comments here by white people making themselves look like the innocent victims.

Wars among the Native People were a device of your influence, but it cannot even be compared to the fact that anywhere the Europeans went, they left a trail of death, destruction and disease.

The only hatred on this board is evident in the words posted by white people.

Aveojohn -

In the recent video showing American Soldiers killing civilians in Iraq and injuring two children that were in the vehicle with their father, one soldier was heard saying "they shouldn't have brought their kids to a war zone".

This is the true sentiment of all white people. Deep down inside, you cannot help being hateful and malicious.

How would you feel if I said: your family should not have been on someone Else's land trying to make it their own! ???

Your ancestors were killed in the same way you would kill someone who invades your home to rob you and harm your family.

I think what whites did to promote slavery defined the terms and burdened their descendents with their ignorant decisions. Their behavior and subsequent actions, from Jim Crow to the continued racial inequities that exist to the detriment of blacks, to the ridiculous notion of "reverse discrimination", to the racially divisive conservative ideology, indicate a continuing assault on the dignity of a race of people (black people). Blacks are not viewed as equals by many in this group, and many view them as an inferior species of human being. It's absurd. The response to this ongoing treatment or the mechanisms designed to eliminate its effects or application, is not hate and not racism and not discrimination. These responses are not "hate crimes." The responses are merely attempts at self-preservation, self-fortification, and attempts to gain and maintain self-respect in a society where an "unearned privilege" exists to their detriment.

Racism as practiced by certain whites in this country against blacks is still the biggest problem plaguing this country. There's no question about that. The country needs more people like Sandra Bullock, Gregory Peck, Paul Newman, Frank Sinatra, the Kennedys, and many other types of whites who do not discriminate but promote the civil rights of people historically denied equal treatment.

Here's a good story of some of these exceptional white people.
USATODAY.com - Many whites among civil rights heroes

Here's another of a doctor in NYC. Dr. Shapiro
A Young Disabled Teacher Navigates a Vertical City - NYTimes.com

We need less people like those who comprise the Republican party and the conservative movement, very ignorant people like Strom Thurmond and Jesse Helms, people who are segregationalist at heart, perpetuators of "hate" crimes against a race they don't view as equals.

You're kidding, right?

On the other hand, maybe you ARE right, there really is NO such thing as "reverse discrimination" . . . discrimination is what it is and it is instigated every day, somewhere, by blacks (and sympathizers) against whites. (Just as LEGAL AMERICAN CITIZENS are being discriminated against by the likes of LULAC, MALDEF, etc. and all their sympathizers).

Oh yeah, we need more of them . . . the Bullocks can go into New Orleans and adopt every black baby born into this world DESPITE the mother's poverty and ignorance and life post-Katrina (instead of abstaining and educating themselves and trying to better their living conditions) . . . and the Newmans never have to live anywhere near the trash and criminality brought on by the perpetual consequences of the incessant breeding . . . the Kennedys, yeah we definitely need MORE of them doing wonderfully humanitarian things like enacting anchor baby laws . . .



As for Sinatra, let's see, he made many a joke at the expense of Sammy Davis, he was in an industry that is known for being liberal, but most of all, he had strong ties to the mob . . . we need more of that?

Reginald Denny. And so many others during all the 'protests' following Ridney Kings well deserved beating who's names the media did not release. God! Gimme a break!

For someone who claims not to be full of hatred your posts indicate otherwise. You are constantly attacking "white" people in the majority of your posts on C-D.

the new 1984 think speak, its not hate crime its troubled youth or payback. selective law enforcement is a hidious monster of injustice that plagues our streets. the punishment of those that defend themselves is the cruelest feature of the age.

Although with that comment, it sounds as if you're trying really hard to change that.
