I suppose we should all start having Saltine waffers instead of "Crackers", say a mule not a (H)donkey, and for the country boy with the missing front tooth, well, he's a Rouge Neck! For the home boy in the inner city, well, he'll be forbidin to even say, "wuz up ma naggas".
Get a life people, quit looking for problems and you'll stop finding them!

Hence, you cannot just flip it around and say what you said.....because the histories are not the same.

You cannot have true double standards unless you share the same histories.
ok, it is obvious you are a bigot. Have fun in your shallow lonely world....

What? My hearing is fine. So because you have some and NOT just Blacks that see racism everywhere, you choose to make a ignorant comment generalizing all blacks? It would be a lot easier for you to try and filter your comments instead of generalizing.

No...the reaction will be visceral/instinctive. If I stick a gun to your head...and its a toy gun that looks authentic....you are going to react viscerally. what are you going to say "is that a real gun"...lol.

LOL....see....I told you....lol.

I mentioned in another thread that to some whites the defintion of racism or bigotry is knowlege and demonstration of US HISTORY. To present the TRUTH about the racial history of America....makes one a racist. Obviously some people have a problem with the truth being told....so they have to try to ostracize people who dare speak it....by attaching pejoritives to the messenger.

you analogies aren't the same. One is with an object and the other was words. There's a big difference there.

Sweet Mary, Mother of God. Is it possible for you to step down off that Liberal Stump of yours and see things outside of the rose colored glasses of liberalism? You truly are shackled to the "poor me" mentality, aren't you?

The NAACP is clearly reaching for nothing here, and you find solace in bringing some sort of "white, Christian" bent to the whole thing?

No wonder this nation hates liberal ideology. It's perpetuated in the most trivial of things like its some sort of normalcy for you folks. I find that to be highly embarassing for you and your cohorts. I really do.
