YES We did!

I still see no problem with saying that whites in general as a group average need to behave better on issues of race. This seems self evident and obvious. Even if scaeagles and Jazzman are shining paragons of racial integration.

Are things better than they were 30 years ago. Absolutely. Are things perfect now and everybody should just shut up about it already? Absolutely not.


As for redecorating the Oval Office, there is already $100,000 in the White House budge for administration change redecorating (this is standard every four years). I'm sure it'll all get spent even if it isn't as obvious as a new carpet and swapping out desks.

Bullshyte again. Maybe thrity, forty years ago. In the 21st century that's over. Racism is no longer exclusive to whites, nor are whites even the largest practitioners of it. For every white bigot, I can show you a black, or brown, or [Insert Racial Demographic Here] one. If you want to say that the human race could all do better, then fine, I'll agree with that, but limit it to whites, or any single group? Bullshyte.

Well, I am probably one of the few whites posting here who actually has black relatives, so yeah, I'll take that compliment. Thanks. Better to walk the walk than only talk a (hopelessly naive and ignorant) talk.

So be it. I always thought you were more intelligent and had more courage than that, but if you don't have the cajones to be open minded enough to question the gospel that you've been indoctrinated with, then nobody can make you. Have fun living in your little fantasy world of self-hatred and ignorant white guilt. I'll enjoy my time in the realities of America in the 21st century.

September of 2006. Pulled out, frisked and ticketed for a brake light that was out, or so the cop said. It sure looked lit up to me. Before that? I think it was '02 or '03. Crossing the 205 bridge, ticketed for going 63 in a 55. Cop decided to ask for permission (what a joke) to search my car. I was twenty minutes late to work.

But then, I guess that I just imagined those occurrences, since I'm a ruling class white and so privileged that those things can't happen to me here in White-merica.

Yes, it is. Hopefully you'll catch on someday...

Me too! I keep coming across NAACP and UNCF scholarships, but I'll be damned if I can find the United White People's Scholarship Fund or my application for a grant from the Will Help Intelligent Thinkers to Educate Yourself Association. I did miss the last secret ruling class meeting though, so maybe it's already been awarded...

Since you like the word: bullyshyte.

I kind of have the same reaction but that is mostly because growing up most of the time the only scissors in the house were high-end Gingher scissors which were never, under penalty of extreme punishment, to be subjected to the indignity of cutting something so insignificant as paper.
