Oh so are you saying that Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and Louis Farakan aren't racist?

Blacks, Hispanics, atheists, gays, etc. do not have to earn their inalienable human and civil rights.

We didn't earn our civil rights....we were given them by the founders, and by that God that so many of you speak of.

What we did was DEMAND that our rights be recognized by people who thought that they EARNED the right, just by being born white, to disenfranchise us from what was rightfully ours.

While it is true that some black people misuse the phrase, not all are guilty. And just because white folks are exasperated by it, does not deem it invalid nor unfounded. You actually deal the race card yet once more, by your narow-minded remark and your reference, "The Blacks", imply that all blacks, are incapable of taking responsibility for their misfortune,
as if that would be a fault exclusive only to Afro Americans.

When we freaking stop talking about these issues every freaking chance we get. It gets old fast. And when people stop acting the part of victims, when they themselves no they are playing the part. Every single day on this forum there is some new post on race issues, maybe different wording but in all actuality, the same exact thing, when are we going to stop constantly bringing it up.

Maybe not YOU, but you can't deny that it has happened. I wasn't centering you out, I was simply making a general assessment.
