According to the U.S. DOJ, Hells Angels are considered a criminal syndicate. Basically, just like the mafia with motorcycles. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hells_Angels

That is the subtle point that is lost on people who froth over and cry out "reverse racism!"

Well, what on Earth can a minority group with not much collective power (and Obama was president, but presidents are not dictators) DO?

I mean, if you think "racist" means "those brown people don't like me because I'm white!"

Then, yep... I reckon there are plenty of brown racists to you.

But, that is not what racism actually is.

Which is why it's annoying when people go on about reverse racism. Think about that for a second... reverse from what? The norm?

If that's the case? White people being racist is clearly the norm and everyone who whines about reverse racism openly admits it.

Yes... people can prefer their own race, have an affinity for their own race. But, even if minority people don't like white people, they really cannot do much to hold white people down.

So, they cannot actually be "racist" to any sort of genuine effect.

Now, if you moved to...oh... China, and were treated poorly because you are white, I'd tell you those Chinese people were racists and that would be absolutely true in that case.

See the subtle difference?



I guess you and Webster disagree.........I'll side with Webster............

I don't believe you at all, unless your definition of way too many is 3 or 4. Go to any VFW or American Legion post and take a poll. You'll get a much more accurate result than a few old high school buddies.

The VFW ,oh please .Go to a bar outside a base and talk to real solders, many like you say are trump supporters.....and many,many are not and as said to me by a thirty year old Second Lieutenant in the Marines he was blown away that the guy who wants to be President has no idea what the Nuclear Triad was .

I'm an anti-trump veteran and I know dozens. The majority of vets I'm still in contact with irl, and on Facebook oppose Trump. Of course they're not the sort of people to sit around VFW halls, and as I'm Black, they're also the sort of people who ACTUALLY have Black friends (many of them being black or brown, themselves).
