Bad joke.
:angel:
But really- it is in a children's song. "Jesus Loves the Little Children"
Right there is a perfect example of profiling and racism....so there is a small argument there.....but that's it.
I'm just saying that of all the black people I know, none of them consider "black" the title of their race. When they fill out a form and have to check ethnic background, there is no "black american", it's african american. When whites fill out a form, there is no "white american", it's caucasian. I'm just saying in technical terms, many would consider it racist.

I see where you are coming from, but they are still black and they are still Americans. They may have African ancestory, but they are not Africans. This seems to be one of those circular topics, lol.
Originally posted by beefcake I don't think many would consider that very PC. I don't know any black people that don't consider themselves african americans. That's like saying asian americans are actually yellow americans.
Well how come people dont call me European american? They are not african americans they are simply americans just like me.

Probably cause no one gives a shit about white people. Doesn't matter where you're from, you're just white. That's why there's no white history month or white entertainment channel. Doesn't matter if you're an american caucasian or a european caucasian, you're just "white." But every minority apparently has to have that part thrown in to divide us. American describes a melting pot of different origins, however, for some reason, we are always divided by race.
One thing I don't get is something Bill Cosby brought up. It's racist for white people to call blacks n!ggers, but they call each other that every day. And it's ok for them to call us whitey or cracker or honky? Just don't get it.

I agree 100%. Do you know the outrage that would come about by a White Entertainment Telivision Channel. And why can black comedians, (even though there funny as hell) why can they make all there jokes about honkey, or whitey. Isnt that racist?

THANK YOU!!! This is exactly the problem!!! It would be a different story if whites addressed other whites as honky or cracker. But we DON'T.
Originally posted by stonecold54 and the number one problem is that the woman of every race are popping fucking babies out like it is a contest. all these kids are growing up without dads and turn out 90% of the time BAD. There is no such thing as father figures anymore. those are just some of my thoughts.
thats very true brother. I aom Hispanic and I see alot of people here well girls having kids like crazy. It pisses me off cause some people do it just to recieve help and get everything for free. Its our fucking tax money. I know this person who has about 5 kids and more on the way, now thats crazy.
Where I work at some little 15 year old kid, skinny bastard that I didnt like was gonna be a dad in 2 weeks. A 15 year old, damn. Im guessing he'll be with the girl for about 1-2 months and leaver her.
Im not a racist at all, but my own people hispanics, here in my city suck balls. Theres alot of people who I dont like for shit. Some have a little $$ and think thier the shit.
Originally posted by THE BOUNCER Also something to think about. This country has more white people than any other race. Now you would think because there is more whites in numbers that that would mean more whites would be in prison. Why is it that 90% of the prison population is black?
Something has to be done within the black community because they are regressing at a rate that is scary.
here where i live, about 50 percent of people that ive known have been locked up. I dont understand its always the same people over and over. I got friends locked up right now, some come out and are into the same shit again. Never learning. The suckie thing about all this is that , thier kids are the ones who follow thier footsteps. Like some kids where i work at want to get Gang Tattos on thier arms when there 15. Im like wtf, who teaches u all this, and they reply my dad and uncles. I dont mean, those little street gangs but big time shit. I think kids are the ones who need to be talked about all this. Screw the people right now, I think its too late but tomorrow generation would be a best choice. I try to tell my kids to stay in school, dont do druge, and be smart and stay away from trouble.
Originally posted by Timma It's not just the race factor here. What I don't ever understand is how the hell they can afford stuff like that.
i agree, its not about races.
Its simple bro, they like making thier money the easy way. They like the money and want moreby dr*g d**ling.
Theres alot of people here on the northside of my town, which I live in the northside who have these awesome houses. Luxury cars, pools, everything. The funny thing is that the wifes are the only ones who work and the guys just there.
Like here where i live at, we live in an awesome part of the suburbs in the city, big houses here. I got my own car, my sister too, my parents. My dad busts his ass off. Well we all work for our money. At times, I wish I had more but know I gotta work hard for it. Now u got these neighbors with everything, from cars, tv's, pool, everything u can think of. The person doesnt work. People ask me what they do, im like i dont know. Dont wanna say shit, but in a way I dont think thats fair. Having everything the easy way. U got people like us doing hard work for what we want and then u got those cheating-non working bastards having everything. I think this goes with every race.
Originally posted by THE BOUNCER but stone, its not just pot brother. its coke and other deadly drugs. its the fact that more then ever blacks are killing there sister or friend for 50 bucks. i see this shit every day on the news bro so you cant tell me there just selling pot. your blaming other things when the only thing you should blame is them. blame them for putting 23 inch rims on there car and then driving 100miles an hour and wondering why they got pulled over saying that its racial.
sounds like some people here in my city but thier hispanic. Ive seen the news back, when guys get killed for less than 100bucks worth of shit. Thats sad. Greed too.
Then u got little fags buying all these expensive cars and adding the 24's. Buying them as they were toys, getting id of them months after using them.
