Then we are in agreement. You are right, there may be a racist white person for every racist black person. But my post suggested that I hear people of color vocalizing this more than white people. That's my point ... you are reading into it more than is needed.
If white people are racist, at least they do a damn good job of keeping it to themselves (in recent times at least!)
But your posts have a tone of "WHHYYY can THEY do it and WEEEEE CANNN'T?", when the comment should be "I see black people vocalizing racist talk more than whites, it shouldn't be tolerated and it's WRONG". Big difference!
Maybe it's the peeps I hang with, but I don't hear much racist talk at all.
Very true..but....the point is black racists seem to be able to vocalize their hate without reprimand. Not saying there are more black racists then white racists...just they are more vocal and everyone turns a deaf ear & blind eye to them
Hmmm outrage over David Duke ( whatever happened to him anyway)
Rev Wright..mere whimper
Could go on & on but it's pointless
Exactly Kate. There are two sets of rules in many cases. That is what many people are angry about. Political correctness has allowed two sets of rules and that is just plain wrong.
No that would be the people who can read and comprehand what they are reading ( no offense Tahiti)
The point is: There are many white racists just as there are many black racists...now here's the point....we are in agreement many whites are racist...
Blacks TODAY vocalize it much more...if whites said some of the things I've heard by blacks they would be taken to task for it

Because you're not surrounded by many people of color in Long Valley, NJ !

SO white people are angry because this is unfair treatment and they are tired of it. AGREED.
Now, how do you think OTHER groups feel after YEARS of being mistreated because of their race, HAPPY? So maybe using that example you can understand why THEY are angry TOO.
And who or what gives you the right to have the thread closed...you don't have to read or post in it
Ok I'm not winning so pick up my game ball and go home????
EEE c'mon it's a heated subject with different views
That is not what I meant... what I meant is at least those posting seem to agree that ALL racist speech is wrong.
Do you really think you are going to change my mind on other issues, you are not. Nor am I going to change yours. And Tommy is still mad that I don't think RU NB should be up there with Princeton... so at this point... the thread begins to loose it's point....
