Do blacks pull the race cards too much? (racism, Obama, ideology)

[Thirty All]

Just curious, because not EVERYTHING is about race.
If I hypothetically insult you and say your dumb, am I saying it because of your race OR because you can't do a task? You just happen to be black, but that is irrespective of my statement

The Democrats try to shield President Obama from any criticism by calling any negative comment about his polices racially motivated.

They will do the same thing with Hillary if she runs and call anyone who opposes her a woman hater.

On the other hand, they claim to dislike black and female conservatives simply because of their ideology.

Go figure.

Generalizations never make for good arguments.

It happens, but there is reason for the hyper-sensitivity. Racism and discrimination still exists, no matter what we think.

I see another "bash black people" post, instead of just admitting that the USA has a sordid history of extreme bigotry and that people suffered as a result, and that the impact of this doesn't just magically disappear.

If you tell me "Your dumb" I will reply "You're dumber" and leave it at that.

We need a post titled "Do white boys complain about blacks pulling the race card too much".

[ChestRockwell]

emphatic YES

it's not even a question

[Driller1]

I have never seen this county so divided.

I am tried of the race card.

Why do we need to know the race of every person in most news stories????

How does asking a question equate to "bashing blacks"?

So when does it disappear? lol

Can you even CONCEPTUALIZE what a post-racial society would be like? Try not to make it sound too Utopian.
