Inquiring minds want to know....... Why is it that the ones who seem to protest racism are the very ones who seem to wish it remain an issue? logical minds want to know,, how can you protest something without it first BEING an issue? how does protesting equate to 'wishing' it be an issue? Perhaps you should be arguing your case with others like yourself who want to make race an issue..... perhaps the KKK or the NBPP? Don't think you'll find many of that thought process here....unless you wish to create them for your own peace of mind..... but don't expect too many of us to side with your discontent.... we don't consider race an issue as you seem to. thank you for your bonesty,, I will leave the 'many of you' alone to gripe instead about the 'issue' of one man in the oval office,,, we all can choose what is important to us, foolish of me to think anti black racism would be one of those 'issues' amongst those who are majority,, NOT BLACK,,,lol well, at least not here, don't want to take away from the many colors, shapes and sizes of people who do think racism is a relevant 'issue' to be addressed and discussed not a population that I am amongst,, obviously,, I got it, a government that oppresses millions and affords them fewer freedoms than any other citizens, over a hundred years and the prolonged affect is not an issue a man , who has a maximum of eight years to be a PART of government that is 'taking away freedoms' ,,BIG ISSUE sorry if the issues that concern me just don't align with the majority here,, it is quite pointless apparently for me to try to hold any discussion about them Perhaps if you truly thought racism was an issue you could lobby to do away with minority privilege to the white house? lol @ minority privilege,, WHERE? 1 black senator out of 100 1 black president in over 250 years what PRIVILEGE are you seeing exactly? Take off your racist blinders..... they were elected by their peers.....just like the POTUS great, that make sit not a problem for anyone from a the MAJORITY, whose 'peers' will be most likely to win most votes,, huh? that in mind, IM back to asking, what 'privilege' you refer to,,,? cause I see a very specific PRIVILEGE In being 'born' into that majority, through no special merit or effort of ones own, and therefore being much better assured of representation than others not born into the fold,,, |

One form of institutional racism is called Affirmative Action. It uses race to determine if a person will be granted something. If one speaks against the institutional racism called Affirmative Action, then I will believe that one is seriously opposed to institutional racism. IM surprised dodo I have pointed out several times in this thread where AA is EXACTLY The opposite of this lie that gets repeated its to ensure people are NOT DISCRIMINATED Against based upon race of course, if you can point me towards a law that requires the use of race to grant someone something ,,ID be glad to review it further,,,  with the exception of PUNITIVE actions which seek to justify those cases where an entity is PROVEN To already be excluding a group and are ordered to START INCLUDING Them,,, |

To expand on my last comment... I had a liberal girlfriend who did a report on racism for college. Her conclusion was that "racism" could be found anywhere if one looked hard enough. Even if it didn't actually exists... So perhaps we need to ask ourselves from a philosophical standpoint; "Is looking for racism causing racism to exist where it otherwise wouldn't?" At least in part... And, "At what point are we finding things that aren't real?" I only go on my own experience and white racism is pretty rampant especially in the area of where they are ignorant of their own racism that they were taught and perpetuate. Whites don't even realize they are racists quite often. I speak on my races racism because I am in a position to be exposed to it by them. Luckily I have been exposed to very little racism. We don't teach it to our kids up here. I count my blessings for that. However I have been discriminated against in the work environment, on one job. Fortunately it was a retail job, and therefore a temporary situation. I have also seen one or two instances where friends applying to college have been turned down for other, less qualified applicants, as the school needed (or wanted)to keep diverse numbers. I have also heard from a close friend, of an accident he was in caused by a drunken driver, who had an open vodka bottle, no drivers license, and no insurance, yet was not arrested. (Turns out the driver was an illegal immigrant. So admittedly this situation had more to do with paperwork and bureaucracy than it did racism.) this is another interesting one to me, as I have NEVER been in a position when not getting accepted (to college, or a job) that I had someone contact me to tell me who was accepted/hired and what their qualifications were NOT ONCE,,, I know this information because i met these people and got to know them. Both parties. I also know people in the system who have admitted to having certain "numbers" quotas. No, no one ever called my friends and said "we decided to admit this person who had **** qualifications instead of you". |

gotcha, as far as I remember
(from my mothers days as an EEO INVESTIGATOR) quotas are illegal unless ordered by a judge if ordered by a judge they are as a PUNITIVE measure when PAST DISCRIMINATIN HAS been legally proven ,,,,, if quotas exist its because someone somewhere, the entity, the company was shown to have been practicing discrimination,,, |

My ancestors were decimated, forced on reservations, starved, treated worse than animals, but I still love this country and reject those who would destroy it. I have fought to defend it, our constitution and the flag..... Something you wouldn't understand obviously..... but Nice try |
