I think you need to learn about the history of slavery especially during the times of the Roman Empire and how far more white people have been enslaved through out history than blacks. You should also learn how the Africans enslaved themselves long before the white man ever set foot on their land... or how the Africans sold their own people to the white man in a time where the entire world took part in slavery. You should also learn about how the Africans continue to enslave themselves to this day. I guess that's the white man too isn't it? How about you learn about the Black Panthers and how it's okay for them to threaten white voters with a billy club into voting for a black President before you scream Klu Klux Klan? You probably think the cival war was about slavery don't you? How about you stop hating your own race and start informing yourself instead of being brainwashed?
No one threatened anyone into voting for Obama. Those Panthers were at a Voting Poll in a black neighborhood, and only because there were white people riding around in vans informing black people such things as the polls were closed or they had to have all types of ID to vote. So they were dispatched to insure that didn't happen at their poll. To show how ridiculous the accusation is: How would they know who voted for WHO outside the Poll?
Yes slavery existed before the "white man" but it was a very different type slavery. Europeans introduced chattel slavery which basically makes a slave less than a human. Before the chattel slavery, life as a slave wasn't nearly as demeaning.
Felt I had to squash the half truths and ignorance you were attempting to infect innocents with.
Half truths? Do I really need to link the video of the Black Panthers telling people to kill white babies? Do I really need to link that garbage? Slavery is slavery is slavery. It doesn't matter what you call it. I do see you refused to even mention the fact that Africans SOLD their own people to the white man? You also missed the part where they enslaved by their own people. And the part where they continue to enslave their own people. No let's just straw man the entire argument right?
Unreal. Slavery wasn't really slavery until the black people were slaves? Are you out of your head?
Listen to me. And listen very closely. There is not a black, latino or asian person in this world that deserves a job over me simply because of the color of their skin. Do you understand that? Can you wrap your head around the idea of equality? I will not put up with it. And I will not put up with scum like the Black Panthers running around spewing hatred infecting the minds of those unable to think for themselves.

All you need is one ID to vote. That is just a simple truth. I would like to see a news article on that white people riding in vans trying to stop black people in a black neighborhood from voting as you say. I think your story is BS too by the way.

That Black Panther screaming kill white babies was NOT apart of the voting fiasco, that's a totally different thing. And by the way I disagree with him and would check his chin if I met him also.
No slavery isn't slavery. A slave in Afrika has a term of servitude after which they can work and earn their freedom, join the community and even become a leader in that community. Were Afrikan Americans allowed to do that in America...hell no! Even when slavery was over they had to live in fear of having a cross burned in their yard or being hung.
I have no problem admitting Afrikans sold other Afrikans into slavery, for reasons stated above. They had no idea their brothers would be turned into sub-humans because that's not how slavery works in Afrika.
I have yet to see where someone was denied a job due to skin color because of affirmative action. What would the hiring authority inform someone, "Sorry, I would love to hire you but I have to hire this black guy to meet a quota!"
How STUPID does that sound, what type of law suit could someone file against that employer for discrimination?
This is a result of LIES white men have told other white men to justify themselves not getting a position for years, they blame it on AA when it doesn't work that way.
In a country where all hell is breaking loose because companies do what they want...and not pay taxes and off shore...they are being forced to hire people they don't want?
Stop making excuses to make yourselves feel better...

Ok, so this is a conspiracy by the govt to keep the black people down??? Try the Democrats first. People are more easily controlled when they are beholden to the State. Marxism in practice.

Educate yourself my man and perhaps ask a black person if you really want to know.
I guess your reading isn't up to par because I've said I don't agree witht he guy screaming kill whitey, I'll go into and explain his type later.
Affirmative action refers to policies that take factors including "race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation or national origin"[1] into consideration in order to benefit an underrepresented group, usually justified as countering the effects of a history of discrimination.

So does this mean I can finally complain about how the black man is bringing the white man down?

I know this wasn't directed at me but I thought I should answer this. It goes beyond color. It's to keep the poor down, regardless of color. When there is little avenue for advancement of life despair can set it. With that comes apathy, anger, etc. Drug and alcohol abuse goes up and this creates an atmosphere that feeds off itself and that has NO basis in race. Education is the key but who gives a damn about the poor? Especially when the atmosphere is poison? See the movie Lean on Me to see what I'm talking about.
One of the pillars of Obama's home church, Trinity United Church of Christ, is "economic parity." On the website, Trinity claims that God is not pleased with "America's economic mal-distribution." Among all of controversial comments by Jeremiah Wright, the idea of massive wealth redistribution is the most alarming. The code language "economic parity" and references to "mal-distribution" is nothing more than channeling the twisted economic views of Karl Marx. Black Liberation theologians have explicitly stated a preference for Marxism as an ethical framework for the black church because Marxist thought is predicated on a system of oppressor class (whites) versus victim class (blacks).
Black Liberation theologians James Cone and Cornel West have worked diligently to embed Marxist thought into the black church since the 1970s. For Cone, Marxism best addressed remedies to the condition of blacks as victims of white oppression. In For My People, Cone explains that "the Christian faith does not possess in its nature the means for analyzing the structure of capitalism. Marxism as a tool of social analysis can disclose the gap between appearance and reality, and thereby help Christians to see how things really are."
Perhaps it is the Marxism imbedded in Obama's attendance at Trinity Church that should raise red flags. "Economic parity" and "distribution" language implies things like government-coerced wealth redistribution, perpetual minimum wage increases, government subsidized health care for all, and the like. One of the priorities listed on Obama's campaign website reads, "Obama will protect tax cuts for poor and middle class families, but he will reverse most of the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest taxpayers."
