Uhhh...you "get lost". I have never used the "N-word" but see other whites chastised for saying it........why is it not the other way?????
ENOUGH!!!
It is not the "other way" because there isn't hundreds of years of slavery, torture, and general crimes against humanity associated with terms like "whitey".
ENOUGH!!! Noone alive was a slave....most have been affirmative action beneficiaries....or welfare state payees.......or have had lawsuits filed for their benefit. LIFE IS TOUGH FOR EVERYONE!!! Yes it might be worse if your parents are not wed, or your Father never sees you, or your Mom is on drugs, or you hang with a gang & sell drugs, or you have tattoos, or do not do homework etc etc.......TOUGH! Rise ABOVE IT!! Thousands of other races have.
FREEDOM & EQUALITY.....starting today!!!
I agree with you BGI User348. So many people have come to this country after escaping all kinds of worse oppression around the world - Communism, war-torn regions, religious, ethnic and racial persecution - and have made incredible lives for themselves without boo-hooing, playing the victim role or taking a dime from any American.
Most of us "evil racist white people" and our ancestors weren't even in this country when there were slaves, so we don't owe anyone anything. Let's face it, Catholics faced incredible prejudice and persecution as they came to this country and have risen above it, even though it's still prevalent. It's a matter of effort, personal responsibility and not accepting the "victim" role. How many trillions of dollars have been handed out (since the 60's) to groups that historically play the race card? Did it help at all? BGI 348 is right, if there's a warped concept of personal/family life in your ethnic community, it's no one else's fault. Clean that up and you'll see the success and respect you want.
