This could be a good point... except it's 2015 AD.

Got it.
And you would know you (or they) were the more qualified candidate, how??

Newsflash: There are millions of women and minorities who are smarter than their white male counterparts and better at whatever career or major they're in.

And it wasn't because someone felt sorry for the black guy or had to fill quota and handed me the job.

Really? All the bad things in the world: Murder, rapes, robberies, suicide bombings- White men have the highest numbers in the world?

"White males are responsible for colonialism,"
They are, just them? I guess no other people have ever colonized the world? You give them too much credit. Arab Muslim Colonialism and Enslavement of people around the world and Africa specifically, predates European Colonialism and slavery by almost 1000 years and continues to this day Slavery in Mauritania and by the Boka Haram are just small examples.

"oppression of non-whites and all women"
Theres no other place in the world where either group would be more successful? Non-whites and women in America are amongst the richest people people on the planet? No where else on this planet are non-white people and women so successful? Black Americans have a combined GDP of over 2 trillion dollars. Thats higher than the entire continent of Africa combined or Russia or India. Same with Women (over 2 trillion dollars) in spite of not working nearly the hours of men. Go anywhere else in the world and it would only be worse.

"name anything bad and pretty much [heterosexual] white men are responsible for it"
And why would gays be exempt? Gay white men are some of the wealthiest in America.

I'd love to see examples of that. In New York, which in 2007 was 25 percent black and 27 percent Latino, the fire department was 90 percent white male. What was that about white males getting screwed over for firefighter positions? What was that about all your examples?

And if a white male is smart enough and has good grades, he can get into damn near any college he wants - just as it's always been in America.

there are 46 Democratic Senators , 31 of them are white men.

there are 188 Democrats in the House of Representatives,96 of them are white men

Your premise doesnt even make sense considering more than half of Alabama Democrats in congress are white men.

Double standard is strong with this one.
I don't think pride in something that is nothing more than a historical accident is warranted in any case.

Even with the historic disadvantages of racism and repression, others are credited with many critical and still in use inventions. With many more that were probably stolen. And since most of you klan acchats don't consider many Mediterraneans white, lets add them too:

Category:Jewish inventors - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Israel’s top 45 greatest inventions of all time | ISRAEL21c
List of Romanian inventors and discoverers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
List of Indian inventions and discoveries - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ancient Greek Inventions and their contribution to modern times
Black inventors list
Ancient Chinese Inventions and Discoveries that Shaped the World
Asian Inventions and Inventors
Category:Russian inventions - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Plenty more from all over the world.

Please feel free to add to the list...
There are inventors from every walk of life. I'm not going to dispute that fact.
