Vague blaming is the problem, how would that be any different than me saying conservatism and it's cousin far right wing and uncle fascism ARE the problem?

At the end of the day, ALL of Earth's issues and problems is because of dirty breeding. One scrub + One scrub =/= 2 Scrubs. It's equals, 3, 4, 5..

You really think a poll in this right-wing circus is indicative of anything?

"The only oppressed group... is the white male". - give me a friggin break! 96% of 1% households are White, most likely headed by a White male. Your sob story is laughable.

The "Black" sounding names are just asking for trouble IMHO because they brand those people as "outsiders". Too; many people of ANY race who immigrated to the US as "free" people many times gave their US born kids "Anglo Saxon" names to help them fit in. Hint, hint.

There's a such thing as social oppression btw, it's not just economic. It's pretty oppressive out there for straight white males. Glad I at least get to carry around my gay card when I need it!

I don't think that goes for any races. How many families have that child who doesn't like what he sees in his relatives and rises above it. I do agree that hatred can be taught but it can also come from seeing things that are unfair. There are quotas in the work place where certain people get an unfair advantage at being hired because the government requires it but when one is choosing a professional ball team the quotas go right out the window. Why don't professional ball teams have to give a certain number of positions to white or other ethnic players?

How is it possible to start a thread yet contribute nothing to it? Thank you for providing the answer, you're finally good for something.

"Don't give your kids "black sounding" names, it could ruin their lives!" say conservative posters who insist racism against blacks is nonexistent in 2016.
