That's a very closed minded view. You're saying that Black people today, the majority of them, have a reason to be racist? Please explain exactly why that is? And don't give me the slavery recorded message. I'm really quite curious.

I can tell you why I think some whites are still very racist towards blacks. Statistics. 14% of the population committing over 80% of all violent crime in the US. That same 14% also includes half of all people in the US with HIV. That's a 1 in 15 chance of contracting HIV in your lifetime if you're black. More black adults of university age in prison than university.

I myself don't consider it a race issue, but rather a cultural issue. My black friends, I know, think the same thing.

'Shaking head left to right'

No...They absolutely have no reason what so ever in the galaxy of life to be racist.

I know the thread title is a rather broad question so let me elaborate.
I believe that most white people are not racist because of skin color. They are however put off by the culture that is being presented to them. Blacks want to be treated equally (and they should be) but do everything to be different.
Going to school, speaking clearly and pulling up your pants is acting white.
Have you ever seen a white kid with a jersey of a black player?
How bout listening to hip hop or at a will smith movie?
Does anyone truly believe that a white kid in a rg3 jersey is racist?
Now im not trying to say racism doesn't exist, just that it is not nearly a wide spread as it used to be.
Please give me some feedback on this, I would be very interested to hear others views on this.


How are blacks not treated equally. If by the poverty line they go for the cheapest homes...Inner cities that struggle to put out jobs. Because most of the inner city jobs have been shipped over seas. Or do you mean, racial profiling. Well 70% of inner cities are made up of black people so 70% of the people that get pulled over are going to black for the most part. They have usually have drugs on them. And most of them say this wouldn't be happening if I were white...What percentage of whites make up inner cities...Oh thats right like 15%. So of course it looks like white get leway. There are less of them.

Or are you talking about the amount of black people in prison. They were weighed measured and been found lacking. Not always convicted by a jury of their peers yet found guilty just the same.

As for jerseys...I have a chad johnson jersey a Ken griffey Jr. Jersey... And a reggie bush jersey. Black people make for better Athletes. I am white and admit black people are Athletically superior. Look at the Olympic standings where black people like. They are usually dominated by black people.

As for public etiquette. Pants pulled up...Going to school... Speaking clearly... Inner cities are not a place highly educated people want to teach based on the average income. So they are left with teachers of lower intelligence who do not know how to teach people of their inner city dog eat dog up bringing. Wearing their pants the way they do...My best guess is their parents bought clothes that were too big because they cant afford clothes every year...After a while they began to get fashionable with it and it stuck. Now big baggy clothes are a way of living. Speaking clearly...Black lingo is heavily southern influenced since that is where they originate from in the united states. Does a black person somewhat not sound like hick from the south...I do believe that they do. Segregation played a huge part of why they did not assimilate into their respective states accent. And since they tend to gather...70% of major inner cities are black majority. A race tends to shy away from other races as ithey are more comfortable with their own race. Not a race thing its just people dont like new situations for the most part so they stick to what they know.

As for music it is usually regionally influenced. Status quo...If you like hip hop while your friends like country you have nothing to talk about musically. So you are usually going to listen to country since you know that your country listening friends are not comfortable or accustomed to listening to hip hop..

As for are whites racist...are you white..Race seems to play a big part in what you think about people. When it is usually social cultural or political differences not racial differences...

Maybe I should have asked have you ever saw a black kid wearing a Tom Brady jersey. Lol
Lots of white kids like hip hop for some reason as well.

Dont get me wrong, there are alot of laws protecting blacks from discrimination.
I also think that creates some resentment from whites who don't get the same protection.

I don't have racist friends and there is no reason other than ignorance and a low intelligence for anyone to be racist nowadays, but for blacks to be racist is beyond me. Around here ALL of the top cars I see are driven by blacks, where I work they basically do all they can to hire blacks and they are protected from basically everything they do with perhaps an exception of killing someone. In my area several black families have moved in buying property, where I live is at minimum a 300k neighbourhood and that's GBP not USD...Yeah black people really do have a lot to be racist about! Stop living in the past and trying to justify blacks being racist, they have nothing to be racist about. May be if poor communities in the US are made of black people, they should all look at themselves and see where they going wrong to then better the area as a whole. Blacks had it hard in the past, yes the situations many find themselves in are a result of that, but these people need to look at themselves and stop blaiming white man or anyone else. Each is responsible for his/her own journey in life.

When you point a finger at another, don't forget three are pointing right back at you.

Did you know Neanderthals had very low intelligentsia?


but for blacks to be racist is beyond me.

Yea,your absulutly right ,none what so ever..



Around here ALL of the top cars I see are driven by blacks,

Sounds like envy to me.




Stop living in the past and trying to justify blacks being racist, they have nothing to be racist about.

They really dont..





but these people need to look at themselves and stop blaiming white man or anyone else.

And your right about that as well..


One thing I have learned during my life of living on this planet is that ,some are born with realization and some are oblivious to what’s real and the absolute reality of ones situation ,with out selfless thoughts, overriding the reality part of ones brain to see absulut reality of another.

With that being said, I will excuse the lack of reality that does not coexist in the area of your brain, in which; I think has been modified from having the genetics of your Neanderthal ancestors.

It saddens me to see, or communicate with humans, who lack the reality gene of life

This will be my last post, thanks for the conversation.

I remember a very long time ago, the talking tree under the lake told me something. The tree told me that a very long time ago, an entity wanted to bring every race, every plant, and every type of animal from each of the eggs from the black air above. You see, I have lived for a very long time and its things that I know that you or any one else on this planet will never know.

Every race on this planet came from distant EGSS/PLANETS, from the solar system/black air. From what I have learned, another planet celebrates this moment when that life, decided to spend its entire life, as well as its families’ to segregate earth.

Some in the under world say it’s the biggest goof of all time, and then you have some that celebrates the moment every 100 years.

So when you still see racism after as long as I have lived, its really hard to swallow these days, being that the greatest event in the galaxy’s history some million years ago took place, and here it is 2013 and things still are not better..but has gotten better.

‘It was told to me’

The only way they will come to earth is when 5 out of 7 sins are no longer relevant on earth OR THE acknowledgment of every ones skin color as an whole.

I didn’t say anything.

‘Good luck in life human’

As one of African American heritage I love to admit that my favorite baseball player was Don Mattingly (I don’t know why he isn’t in the hall of fame) and my greatest hero in history is John Brown, both white men

And of course I love beautiful white woman and certainly the lovely white ladies here as well the other races

You are all so beautiful and intelligent.

We have to find ways to overcome racialism

I grew up in the 1960s and 70s. A small town outside Kansas City. I remember Mary and Sheryl coming to my front door on game night, Friday night, during the football season. They were there to meet my older sister Carla, they were all on the PEP squad at the local high school. Needless to say Mary and Sheryl were black.
My parents didn't allow Mary and Sheryl in our house, they waited on the front porch until we left for the football game. I didn't realize I was racist, or acting racist, until Mary started harrasing, teasing, me to the point i called her a Nigger. As soon as I said the word I regretted it. Sheryl and Mary something like .....yeah we always talk about you white people as Honkeys. I know my parents were racist, I got caught up in their racism. Come 1997 I meet a wonderful woman I want to marry. I call my mom and say I am going to be married. I tell my mom she's black, My Mom automatically goes into the deny mode. Oh Please don't. Yada, Yada, Yada.
I'm just trying to say people change, give them a chance.

To OP.

No. But areas with homogeneous racial demographic tend to be towards outsiders.
