Okay. From now on I am German-Danish-Scottish American and not just white. That sounds just as rational as "African American".
"White" refers to race, not nation or continent of origin. "African-American" refers to continent of origin and perceived allegience to another entity. I really do not think of myself as a German-Dane-Highlander. Why in the hell do you think of yourself as African? I mean, that is very strange. Were you not born in America? I guess that just makes you American, just like me.
You are almost there, but the racist bigots on the left just lump everyone with dark skin and broad facial features as African-American. I knew a family who immigrated from Jamaica, and the hospital submitted the race on the birth certificate for their new baby daughter as African-American, needless to say the parents were very upset.
The libs have a box with a racial identifier and a behavior description on it for all black people, and they just assume they will stay in that box, and mirror that description.
* a white person is simply a person with skin that cannot tan very easy.
* people from sweden, ireland, etc... those are white people
* chinese people can be white
* cubans, mexicans, latin americans, etc... also can be white
*..tons more examples...but did not want to write a book
My definition of "Not a White person":
* someone with dark skin
* someone that tans very well
I tan really well, get darker olive skin in the summer and have dark black hair. Although my ethnicity is basically half Polish, with a mix of Black Irish, Scotch-Irish, German, and a really small amount of Native American blood way back in the 18th Century on my father's side. Though I'm often mistaken for a Latino when tan(or Sicilian or Lebanese). Does that make me not white, based on my somewhat Mediterranean appearance? Just what wondering--as culturally we're typical suburban/small town American---no real ethnic identity on my dad's side. But I guess our swarthy good looks make us not "white"...
I agree with you 100%. The whole "political correctness" was created simply because of "white" people being scared to offend those more powerful.

It has nothing to do with attitude.
It's all simple if you think about it. But the truth is that none of this matters. We are all people who deserve to be here on earth equally.
Now that is really brilliant. I do not know who or what you are, but I can say with certainty that your people are not perfect. So maybe you should not throw stones.
