I think the most unique racist names take place in the military. Soldiers are always on each other about anything and everything. It's part of the brotherhood that develops, and also a stress reliever for the hairy times.
Anyway, my favorite was "Wagon Burner" for a long time. And it came from a Latino guy ribbing a native. Then I was treating a black guy with a sprained ankle when his buddy walked by and said "take good care of him, antique farm equipment is valuable where I come from". This was a white Iowa farmboy and the black guys best friend.
People can say racial things without meaning harm to anyone.
ATS should add or have it's own Racial/Racism Problem Forums.

I thought ya'll would like to see the latest coming from the New Black Panthers. You know .. that group that engages in racist hate crimes, voter intimidation, and who calls for the murder of American citizens (Like George Zimmerman). Obama's Dept of Justice - run by Eric Holder - turns a blind eye to these guys. hmmm .. wonder why? :shk:

As for the African slave trade, many of the slaves were captured during tribal warfare and sold to the whites by the conquering tribe.

I want to know why those laws were all shoved down our throats if not for this.
Nevermind, I know why.
Thompson added, “Janet Napolitano is lying to the American people when she says the Report is not based on ideology or political beliefs. In fact, her report would have the admiration of any current or past dictator in the way it targets political opponents.”
The Report specifically mentions the following political beliefs that law enforcement should use to determine whether someone is a “rightwing extremist”:
· Opposes restrictions on firearms
· Opposes lax immigration
· Opposes the policies of President Obama regarding immigration, citizenship and the expansion of social programs
· Opposes continuation of free trade agreements
· Opposes same-sex marriage
· Has paranoia of foreign regimes
· Fear of Communist regimes
· Opposes one world government
· Bemoans the decline of U.S. stature in the world.
· Upset with loss of U.S. manufacturing jobs to China and India
· . . . and the list goes on
The Law Center is asking the court to declare that the DHS policy violates the First and Fifth Amendments, to permanently enjoin the Policy and its application to the plaintiffs’ speech and other activities, and to award the plaintiffs their reasonable attorney’s fees and costs for having to bring the lawsuit.

Slavery wasn't invented by white people. Before Europeans WRONGFULLY started enslaving people, slavery was practiced in most of Africa, and in the middle east by Arabs for almost 2,000 years if not more.
I am not trying to be hateful towards any race, but the truth is the truth. What the Europeans did to African slaves was as bad as what other slavers had done to slaves.
Unfortunately slavery still exists in many countries, and now it has taken another course... Women and children are being traficked for the sexual pleasures of a$$holes who should not even exist.
I don't know when or how slavery, of all forms, is going to be stricken from the face of the Earth, but at the pace we are going it will get worse if people accept the Global Socialist/Fascist Government that the global elites want to implement. Then we will all be true slaves to these people if the TRUE 99% doesn't wake up.

I find it hilarious how the "institutions" teach everyone that whites are the slave masters, and in the same breath, that whites are either proof of evolution.
It will never add up

White slaves were allowed to escape slavery, black slaves werent. And so started the downward spiral of racism in America that we're still fighting to overcome.

What institutions teach that only whites were slave masters? If you're talking about in America thats a big part of American history it cannot be overlooked and ignored. "whites are either proof of evolution it will never add up" -Huh?

Wow...humm nice try at rewritting history...
Slave masters used to have sex with their slaves, and even had children with them, but it has only been since recent times that interracial marriage has been freely allowed.
In Africa and the Middle East slaves who had attempted to escape were deprived of their thumbs so they could not open doors. Other forms of mutilations were done, even on sexual organs of both males and females so they could not have children amongst themselves, or with the rich people they were serving.
BTW, in the Americas the people who wanted to keep slaves were mainly Democrats who were the rich plantation owners of the south. The same group who now claims to represent the poor and minorities...
If Republicans hadn't united and if Abraham Lincoln, also a Republican in case some of you didn't know, hadn't decided to fight for the end of slavery we would be living in a much different, as in worst, United States today.

Not rewriting history at all, go do some reading. In the early times, like when Europeans first arrived in America, there were both black and white slaves. Race was not the biggest issue it that time it was more of a class thing. These slaves WERE allowed to have and raise children. Read a book about it a couple years ago for a class, I can dig up the title if you need it. Im sure you could google it and find something though.edit on 24-5-2012 by acmpnsfal because: (no reason given)edit on 24-5-2012 by acmpnsfal because: (no reason given)
