I am so sick and tired of signs around my campus about "Islamic awareness" and meetings and seminars. They used MY TUITION MONEY to make the Muslims a special bathroom to wash their feet!

Come on now. It is not possible to not think these thoughts at least once in your lifetime.

FWIW, this guy (the OP) is the genuine article, and what I mean by that "the real deal." OR, to put it succinctly, an honest and decent person who is just putting it out there for discussion and not to troll.

But liberalvoice, society today is FAR TOO PC today to have a normal discussion on such a topic. Be prepared for a "good raking" over the coals. I do have to say that you mostly have your liberal counterparts to thank for that.

Respectfully

For sure there are a hell of a LOT of unproductive white people on the doll as well. I sure don't say otherwise.

Worst entitlement mentality? White males who seem to believe that it all actually belongs to them and anyone else who gets a piece must have took it from them.

Entitlement mentality is across the board in terms of ethnicities. How it is manifested can differ.

My father came here and worked his ass off without a single penny from welfare.

Yes, I know. Whites have the entitlement mentality too but I still think minorities (especially those from 3rd world cultures) have it worse. But THEY ARE NOT A MINORITY. Come on now!

And NO, this is not a troll thread. Not saying these phrases stereotype every member of the group. Just giving the most common cries of being victimized by them.

RESULTS ARE PUBLIC, FYI!!!

__________________________________________________ ____________________________________________

So my options are (no particular order):


1) African Americans- "The White Man has kept us down for so long! Obama gonna pay for my gas and mortgage. I have 15 kids and SOMEONE has to pay up for me!! People owe me because my grandfathers great grandpa was a slave! Wah!!"

2) Hispanic/Latinos- "We deserve every right to be here despite the fact that we broke this nations laws and gave birth to babies that weren't even supposed to be here. We want welfare, healthcare and food stamps and more. We pray the people of the USA listen to god (pull out THAT card again, now why don't we?) and open their hearts (even though we kill our own illegals)! We DREAM (yuck)! Wah!"

3) Muslims- "Lowes pulled their ad from our show. Wah! They hate us! How dare Abercrombie and Fitch fire me for not letting me wear a Hijab in their store which is obviously not conservative? Why do Americans hate us so much......we want to build a mosque right by Ground Zero!! Wait, you named your Teddy Bear Muhammed? WE KILL YOU! You looked at me the wrong way? YOU ARE AN ISLAMOPHOBE! HOW DARE YOU! YOU ARE ALL IGNORANT. We are always the victims. 100 percent! WAH! "

4) Gays and lesbians-(NOTE I AM 100 PERCENT FOR GAY MARRIAGE AND RIGHTS) "We have the plight similar to African Americans! Everyone should be ok with seeing some boy on boy or girl on girl actions. What is wrong with that? I do not understand why anyone would be opposed! Wah!"

5) Other- Can't think of any other groups. Post them if you want!

I have to say that Chinese and Indians despite being minorities are more focused on being productive and improving themselves. If you can think of any of their entitlement mentality cries, post them. Is this why India and China are owning it...?
You've obviously have never left your cocoon. If you visit southern calif, you would find that armenians, russians, vietnamese, filipinos have the worst entitlement mentalities of all.

Homeowners. They believe they're entitled to mortgage interest deductions, homestead exemptions (from property taxes), property tax deferrals, mortgage modifications, foreclosure bailouts, it's incredible.

LOL. How about married people with kids? They want EVERY deduction to pay the least amount of taxes, yet use the greatest amount of services.
