Mick

I would because an average black person is a decent human being and treated like everyone else. I would do it for the benefits like free college and what not.

The Supreme Court even ruled in the favor of the Cherokee's, and Andrew Jackson led them on a trail of death and misery towards their eventual enslavement.


The Sioux bargained for the Black Hills, only to have them stolen. Many tribes tried to work with the U.S. government, believing they had secured a peaceful treaty, only to be shot down en masse, men, women, and children.

White privilege has always existed, and still does today.

I suggest you move to Uganda or Somalia and see how people are treated there. Life isn't that bad here.

White liberals trying to make themselves feel good by concocting non-existant problems to make other whites look bad while making themselves out to be saintly as well as heroes to people of color.

HRC, Pelosi, Reid, and a host of other white progressive liberals all fit the bill.

Yep, and they are also apparently self-hating whites on some kind of stupid guilt trip.

It is impossible to take that fool seriously. He cannot/will not keep his eyes open while speaking and looks like he is on a self destructive path to a very early demise. I do not doubt that he was a huge racist and it is good that he has seen the light and decided to change his ways but he comes across as very ignorant. Another thirsty youtube idiot seeking 15 minutes.

I'm still steaming over that "white tax" I had to pay on 4/15. Yeah, it's good to be white.

I admitted in on page 2. I assume I've pulled at least a dozen non white people out of whatever hell hole they are in but I can't be sure. The rules are somewhat sketchy.

I never said it was, but thanks for the suggestion. I think I'll pass.

Def of the "insulting" term "redneck": a white farmer who spends the day in the field GROWING FOOD for the lazy criminal element found mostly in the cities. Wanna know what THOSE folks are called? Ask Chris Rock. He calls them out.
