Okay so this happened (I'll take your word for it,no link) is this a reason to start a "race war"
Again, what do you want to see happen at the coclusion of this race war?
On second thought how about a link to the story you claim happened, let's see if it's as black and white as you claim.
there was this white women who went campaigning for obama in the ghetto and some black thugs killed her and for couple of days every black person walked by her dead body and never called a police until some utility workers came and saw her corpse and called policae

If Blacks got the "chips off their shoulders" racism (against ALL races) would cease to exist as we know it? No offense but that makes no sense whatsoever. (...places chip back on shoulder)
The Wolf Man could have elaborated a little more on his thoughts but Cali is usually a better debater than this. First, no Wolf is not talking about all races. This thread is about blacks and he references blacks in his post. He's talking about racism against blacks. Second, he said many blacks. He went out of his way to say 'not all' blacks. Third, he said that racism would 'begin' to go away. He did not say 'cease to exist' as you claim.
The fact of the matter is that many blacks are hyper-sensitive about racism and often see racism where none exists. Remember the government official in Texas that claimed saying something disappeared into a black hole was racist. I'm not going to go into a definition of a black hole right now but the white guy was making a valid point and was not being racist. Reference the Alford - Boxer exchange. I went into why in another thread but Senator Boxer was not being racist but was accused of such by Mr. Alford. I could go on and on.
Remeber the televised interview with the black kid during the Pennsylvania swimming pool incident. Whether or not it was motivated by racism, the kid, maybe 8 years old, said, "Boy, I thought we had left this kind of thing in the past". This kid doesn't remember the past when racism was bad. He was told what to say.
Remeber the televised Rev. Jerimiah Wright anti-rich white man rants. The blacks were hooting and hollering and there were many children in attendance.
Remeber the Don Lemmon interview with several black college students during CNN's Black in America series. He asked all of the students two questions. The first was, "Is there still racism in America?" They all said, "yes". Then he asked them if they themselves had experienced racism and they all said no. I'm sure they just heard about from their black elders such as Rev. Wright, their parents, Jessie Jackson, etc.
Black kids all over the country are being made to believe that racism is worse than it is because of what they're being told by their elders. Many of them will become hyper-sensitive about racism as many of the elders are. By the way, hyper-sensitive about race is what the Wolf Man means when he says 'chip on the shoulder'. I think he has a valid point.

I really believe this story. Just like I believe what Carol Stuart, Tanya Dacri, Susan Smith and Bonnie Sweeten said. My BS detector is finely honed, and it's going off right now.

thank you SO much for 'getting' my post. I guess it was too indepth for cali. Even though quite brief.
If they would stop crying foul all the time....maybe we'd all 'mesh' better.
