ive known many a white folk in my dayz, and i would say even tho they might appear rascist, sometimes subconsciously (LIKE THE 4TH ANSWER SAYS) rascist. I AINT TALKING ABOUT ALL WHITE FOLK JUST SOME WHITE FOLK THAT I HAVE MET, i aint sayin white people as a whole so dont trip. But NEwayz i dont think rascism will never end, Some people are raised to believe they are better than others, and everywhere you look; whether it be on tv, radio, magazines, etc., you will see everyday stereotypes of minorities.

THATS JUST MY OPINION THO :cool:

Does it make white people racist because they go get an education, get a good job, buy a nice car, and think that they are better than the Mexican cutting their grass, the black guy selling drugs, or the Arab working at 7-11? Why do white people get blamed for minorities shortcomings? Sorry, but I admire any person that does something respectful with their lives, no matter what race they happen to be.

That sounded pretty racist.
1) Because you are grouping Whites as a whole and blatantly stating that they all get an education, get good jobs, buy a nice car, and think that they are better than Mexicans who can only cut grass, Black guys selling drugs, and Arbas working at 7-11.
2) This grouping literally is black and white, White equal good, black equal black.
3) Now if you want to group people as a whole and attach a negative stereotype, that is up to you, but for now i shall use white people and use facts. Most people on welfare in the United States are white, that doesnt sound very good job having or good car driving to me. 6/10 racially biased attacks are done unto blacks, the majority of the people committing these crimes are white (60% of males and 10% of white females), not only on racial grounds but on religious ones too! Whites (88% of all offenders of religious hate crimes), 81% of women raped are white and of all rapes 92% are commited by family members/husbands or boyfriends/ or friends. Now that leads to the fact that most of these women have white family members, white friends, and white spouses most of these crimes are done by white males. 70% of all child molestors are white, each individual pedophile molests 148 children,
4) now for my point:
Does it make Mexican/Black/Arabian people racist because they dont get 148 pieces of child ass, dont rape 81% of their women, Don't commit 6/10 hate crimes, and think that they are better than the Aryan pounding kid ass, the hillbilly guy raping his sister, or the Klansman working at killin' some more of then 'niggers?' Why do Mexican/Black/Arab people get blamed for white crimes when it's really whites as a majority not minorities that commit these crimes? Sorry, but I admire any person that does something respectful with their lives, no matter what race they happen to be.
{I will thank you if for the next time you do not use Whites as some superior group of people because they are not. Although there is a possibility you didn't mean for that to be your message, i would highly suggest you look at your wording. If you would like to verify my data I got most of it at

Thats exactly what makes white people racist. The Mexican is making his money how he can, hes not hurting anybody, hes just trying to make ends meat. The Black Selling drugs, He is making his money the only way he can because the white man wont give him a nice job with his own office, and he needs to feed his family the only way he can, and the only way he knows, because he didnt get a private school education. the arab working at 7-11, he risks his life working at that 7-11 just so he can feed his family, mean while some 17 year old white hillbilly is plotting on how to jack the store so he can go buy some meth off the black guy. "think that they are better " THATS EXACTLY WHATS WRONG WITH WHITE PEOPLE! Ide rather sell drugs and risk my freedom for wealth then sit behind a desk firing minorities, and lowering wages at a factory where 90% of employees are black, and imploying imigrants and make them work for 20 bucks a day, and then going home feeling like i havent done anything wrong. Just Beacuse White people have better cars better educations and better jobs DOESNT MAKE THEM BETTER PEOPLE!!!!!!!!

Oh yeah, so I am a racist because I am "white", just like this thread states. Like I said, I respect anyone that does anything respectable with their lives. I respect anybody working for their living, whether it is cutting grass or working for minimum wage. I don't respect the people that waste their lives and any opportunities given to them, such as an education. I don't respect the people that waste their lives in an education system provided to them for free to end up cutting grass or working at 7-11. Labeling all whites as racist is like labeling all blacks as drug dealers, all Mexicans as grass cutters, or all Arabs as convenient store workers.

Some people may have a life of glamour handed to them. There is not anything anyone can do about that. Some people are handed a celebrity life because they offer a certain image. Others work hard to make it to the top. I can respect someone, such as an illegal immigrant who works 16 hours a day for little money while breaking his back. I can respect him because he is doing it for his family and putting his kids through an education he or she never received to make sure they succeed in life. I can't respect him if he doesn't give a damn about his family and lets his kids waste 12 years of their life in school only to end up working 16 hours a day with him. And I damn sure can't respect any athlete or movie star that can't keep a marriage together or keep their dick in their pants. So yeah, there are some people that I think that I am better than. Just like rappers think that they are better than everybody else.

No your not rascist because your white, maybe i was wrong calling you "rascist" but you damn sure are pretty ignorant cause of Stupid ass fuckin statements like that. You just admitted white people think they are better those stereotypes of minorites, and that White people get blamed for our shortcomings??? FACE IT THE SYSTEM ONLY WORKS FOR WHITES THATS WHY YOU GET BLAMED FOR FUCKING US AND STEALING OUR COUNTRY

maybe im wrong, and i am white, for the most part i think that adolf is just trying to make a point, just in a facetious manner that white people arent allowed to make any more.
heres my two cents, and i'll be glad to talk all day about this, but due to laziness, im gonna cut it down simply to this: it has become okay for everyone but white people to be racist. Me expressing my anger in a racial epipthet to another ethnic person would get my thrown in jail, or my ass beat, but if someone were to call me a "cracker", it would have a lot less effect. my point is, to make this country more tolerant, to excaberate racism, all of it needs to be banned. none of this "white people did this 200 years ago, and so now, we can do all we want to make up for it." if there isnt a stop put to it now, there never will be.

I know that. Like I said he worded his point in such a way that it seemed racist.

Racism isnt cool not matter what nationality or ethnic background you belong to.

really? can you give me a better example?

if you're gonna talk shit you better be able to back it up.
DubbC415 said:

Myabe to you, the term cracker is offensive. Cracker and Nigger are both offensive words neither is less than the other, but it is true that you can say 'cracker' on tv but you can't say 'nigger.' I still dont understand why.
DubbC415 said:

you can't ban racism, its not something i like to hear, but its your voice and banning it would take away from your freedom of speech. I think that instead of not being able to be racist, people should try to understand why they shouldnt be racist.
DubbC415 said:

Why would you want people to not be able to say "white people did this 200 years ago?" If it happened it happened. Its true "white people" have done pretty fucked up things, but i still don't think you should be racist to them or them to us as minorities.

^^^im a little confused at some of ur comments...im not sayin im gonna talk shit, it was just an example, i was joking around about getting my ass beat. im just confused about ur example comment.

racism goes both ways, im not saying that white people arent racist, shit u see it all the time...but what i see it as is ignorance countered with stereotypes to make things seem like white people are giving something back to minorities. also, i know what happened happened, but i dont think that it is an excuse for it to be okay to be racist or hateful now.

I don't think any one but you has said that one is white because they are racist.

Yes I respect people like that also.

What? That's not what you said earlier. You said if whites (as a whole) are racists because they think themselves better than the grass cutter, the dope slanger, or the 7-11 cashier. I didn't really see you show any respect for these people. Especially since you only said Whites can have these nice things, Never did you saw a Mexican, an Arab, or a Black person could own nice things, you labeled all of them as inferior members of society.
AdolfOliverBush said:

Oh the irony! That's exactly what you did. You labeled all blacks as drug dealers, all mexicans are grass cutters, and all Arabs as 7-11 employess. You also used Whites as rich, successful member of society that aren't in the wrong becuase they see themselves as betters to the 'mud people.'

But it's not racist for White People to feel superior right? After all they are the only one's that go get an education, a nice job, and buy that fancy car.

I would say some rappers sure, but not all rappers. Once again you should watch out for the wording of your arguements.

Racism does go both ways, very true.

I never said it was, i simply stated that what happened did infact happen.
