I am a social democrat and will say we are all a bit racist. Take the most liberal person who thinks we owe blacks because they came from ancestors who were slaves and drop her off in the middle of the hood in St. Louis and see how long it is before she is clawing at the door of the car as it drives away. I would venture to say that 99% of non drug adicted whites do not like hood rats or their enviroment. Most adult whites do not like black culture, sure we like the Criss Rocks on stage making fun of us from time to time, but we don't like the whole pants falling to your ass crack, rims on a car worth ten times what the car is worth and music that is anything but music and more of a rythum cursing and calling women hos and *******. So I would say if we are really honost we are all a bit racisit.
At least against the culture. But is not a culture part of the race? If you have a black person like the president who is cultured and refined and educated then do you feel any different than a white person?
But what IS black culture? There are a whole lot of black people who are like the President, well educated and clean cut and refined. To me, THAT is black culture, the new black culture.
Why would anyone admire people who dress slovenly, and are loud and disrespectful and listen to hate music and refuse to get an education? Should THAT be an example for black youth? I don't think that is black culture, but it is the culture of losers.
To suggest that that culture is a black one IS racist.

How many Muslims are members of KKK? How many Christians?
I don't know, but the question would be better phrased - how many Muslims are members or contributers to Muslim fundamentalist groups and how many other people are members or contribute to the KKK?
How many Muslim charities were closed down because the funds were ending up in terrorist hands?
People like loud music. That's why we go to concerts and clubs. I also like to drive with the windows open as I like breeze. I generally live in hot areas (Texas now) but hate AC. I also own a convertible. It shouldn't bother anyone on the street. I can see it's a hassle if someone is in their house trying to sleep. During nighttime hours I use headphones but during the day, no one should be bothered by music as I'm not bothered by theirs.
Yeah, but you're probably half deaf from listening to that racket in your car. Not fair.
I've found that people like to call others "racist" just to make themselves look good, as if to highlight their open mindedness and progressive thinking. Yet, those same people who call others racist use such vague and flexible definitions of "racism" that by their own standards they are also racists themselves.
Being that you posted dozens of posts on Christmas and Christmas eve, I doubt you have many family members, unless they are all estranged.
Hey, as our dear friend MathGuy pointed out some weeks back, this forum's posters are pretty much a breed who has alienated all friends and family because of their militant and unwavering political opinions, and this is pretty much the last place anyone will listen to them.
And if you saw that poster here on during the holidays, I suppose you were here for the very same reason
On a public street you're not entitled to peace and quiet. That's inside your home.
You're wrong different communities have different noise ordinances for public places. Just as you can be fined for blowing your horn needlessly, you can be fined for ramping up your car's radio. Now, probably people are no longer fined for doing these things, but I'll bet that they can be. Again, it's local law.
