We the Filipinos were conquered and suffered the lose of 1.4million people when America colonised us, the spanish have ruled us for 3 centuries. The .45mm calibre bullet and 1911 pistol was born out of the Phillipine/American war.

Vietnam and Japan was a scroched earth policy adopted by the Americans.

Do you see any of the 3 countries that i have mentioned having large gatherings of organisations that are "Anti white" ??

If we can get over that hurdle or wrong doing, then why cant the white man do the same?, why cant the majority of whites own up to their wrong doings or ignorance without deflecting a question? It is this inept of acknowledgement that dictates of how far or little progress will be made.. Does that make any sense?
Ma'am, as I've may have stated previously, all races have engaged in racism and discrimination. If you really examine history, you will find that all races have at one point or another, engaged in racism. Maybe you hear a lot about the white supremacy groups here in the US but what makes you so certain that there aren't any other supremacy groups here in the US or in other countries? Anyone who harbors the view that one culture is more superior than another or that one culture is more evil than another is just fueling the flames of racism. Personally, this whole concept of the "evil white man" needs to be done away with. Yes, there are plenty of ignorant white folks out there as well as ignorant folks from other racial groups. Most of the racist comments I've ever heard came from minorities so please spare me this whole drivel of whites being the only ones capable of being racist! Racism is wrong period and should never been justified!

Let me ask you this: You are filipino correct? Is there a such thing as the typical filipino? Are you all uniform and share the same characteristics? I did not think so. There is no such thing as a typical white person either. You may find it helpful to begin getting to know white folks on an individual basis and leave the ignoramuses alone.

I don't know why people think this. Some of the most racist people I've encountered in my life time have been black. Racist black people who don't like anybody, including other black people.

Ignorance comes in every flavor. Hate the behavior, not the person -- that's my creed.

Why don't YOU all just get it for once?
you're right. abortion does exist, and it always will. I am not under it, and this isn't a thread about abortion. I am also pro choice.

So long as racists keep it to themselves, that is their problem, they speak up and attempt to spread their hate and no, I will Not ignore them.

As a Filifino, you should know that the history of the .45 as a sidearm was born of the conflict with the Moros, specifically, and not because of the Filipinos. My Negrito mentor called the .45 a "Caribou gun". My Filipino mentor, Ceasar Manaclang, used one, regular. You will not find any hatred or contempt for anything Filipino or native to the island chain, coming from me. Quite the opposite, I miss the PI and my boyhood days. Life was simple for me there, and even 'hatred' had a different meaning. Magandang Gabi.

Life is so much simpler in a simple environment, one where money isn't the driving factor in life.

racists have a right to speak their mind. my thought is that if no one was around to hear it, would it ever make a sound?

Lol, how true. When Tommy, my Negrito second father, used to take me into the jungle, my Father never gave it a second thought. He knew I was safe and in the best of hands, One of our main purposes in those trips was to get 'real food'. Hmm , Iguana, fruit bats, fish, snake, friuts and other flora to numerous to list. Never came home hungry. tired, yes, hungry no. Simplicity is a good thing. There are no racists in a survival situation. You either cooperate,and learn from each other, or die. My Dad was a very ...practical, person. My Mom worried no end, Dad trusted Tommy, and I'm glad he did. I'm a far better person for my experiences with him.
