bugguy has a point...

It is ALWAYS the white person who is called racist. Even though others are they sure will not admit it.

These facts were posted on another message within the past couple days, facts from the FBI: there were more whites killed by blacks LAST YEAR, than blacks killed by the KKK in their ENTIRE HISTORY (over 140 years!) So get real with your facts.

Naw mate.

You need to re-read my post.

I said KKK, politicans from 1820-1950's.
I didn't say KKK from 1820-1950s.
Got it?

So, no one in the Black Panthers was ever prosecuted? And Van Jones had the power to over-ride laws prohibiting the killing (lynching) of white Americans? Geeeeee, who knew!

You argument that MOST OF THE RACISM IN THIS COUNTRY originates with black people is beyond pathetic.

It's not that....but there's always someone who has one wanted to kill the POTUS...some of them have actually succeeded so I think this is more an issue of "some crazy person wants to kill the president" hopefully he'll be protected and can leave the office unharmed.

When you're dealing with an irrational person, logic is not a part of the debate.

Why is it that you only focus on blacks? Maybe it's because you have an irrational hatred for them? What's that called again?
Good point. I never thought of it that way, but that makes sense.

Well there's that...but what I was referring to was the kind of c'est la vie attitude some people take toward racism...and, worst case scenario, the President getting killed.

Saying, 'it's always been this way' or 'your group did it too' is an easy and often used way to cover up the significant differences between two things.

But you took it to it's logical conclusion...the bottom line...protecting the President.
