I believe it's raced based
because it is.
Because these morons have the attention of the media, a much larger group which you include yourself among choose to align themselves with them.
Not only was that 100% about race but it taught a lot of children that being racist is perfectly okay so long as you lie about it. If Obama had been white and twice as liberal as you think he is, that shit still would never have happened. What a proud moment for Conservative America.
All it really showed was how little we've really learned and how petty and vindictive the people you choose to align yourself with really are. Honestly Gonz, I don't think you're a racist but you choose to align yourself with these people, some of whom clearly are, and to me that makes you even worse.
And its attitudes like this^ that PROMOTES and CREATE racism in hearts that have grown beyond it. You unduly push the label on someone or a society and it creates deep resentments, the building blocks of racism.
I was raised by a "colored" woman, she was the one who cared for me when I cried, she fed me and she got me to school. I slept in the same bed with her son for years and we shared a room for 1/5th of my life. Hell we've even been cell mates together.
I am fully aware racism exist. I've been beat-up a number of times by both races because of it. For a pasty-cracker, I got a fairly good sense of the changes societal attitude over the last 45 years.
In the 70's many
"ol' timey colo'r folk" still "
knew their place" and it was tough, there was still a lot of fear. In the late 80's a large attitude shift happened and that was the beginning of when it became
"cool to be black", the dawn the
"wigger". Rap made its break and MTV played a big role in that societal change thats now seamless for most.
Racism is something that occurs in degrees within the individual. Be it black-white-yellow-red there are people who are lightly racist say 10% (for the sake of example) This is a the
"acclimated" individual, the person who doesn't
outwardly have a problem with racism. These are the folk who share neighborhoods, work together, and let their kids sleep at other kids* homes. (*raceless specifier).
On the other end of the spectrum you have your black-white-yellow-red 90% racist, this person is called the "militant".. These folks are the ones who who would rather die than receive blood from another race. They are the ones who CREATE and PROMOTE hatred and racism.
Plain and simple, you will
never ever completely get rid of racism unless there is some grand eugenics campaign. The KKK, white supremest
*, black panther etc. fall into the later category, they are militants.
ALL of these types promote the hate in their plight to raise their own ideals, it is their existence and purpose in life. This where the race wars are fueled and kept healthy.
Example: Robert Byrd former Klansmen -- he was once a militant, is he today? -- dunno, but I bet he is still racist just to a lesser degree. He has further to slide to find an acceptable level of racism than most. As time goes on his internal level of racism lowers as finds its safe to not be racist.
IF suddenly some militant black group attacked him and began making a stink about him being a racist, his internal level of racism would rise. (that is how people work in general terms)
You see racism is dynamic, it is in flux. Since ol' Joe yelled "you lie" society has been carpet bombed with accusations of racism....... In the last ~week society's level of racism has been increased exponentially on all sides. (Thank you leftist commie bastards).
So if you want to join the frey of those who are throwing out the racism card as a general cover all, you''re a fuck-wit. You are feeding it, making it healthy. You are spitting in the face of tens millions who have worked to overcome a dark issue. Reducing the general attitude of racism is not something a few individual achieved, it took a nation and cost lives on all sides. For gods-sake we have black guy in the white house, how far have we come?
Go ahead, feed racism if you like that is your choice. I for one will not feed it, nor will I flinch in the face of it.
* - White supremest who hate black people and that don't hate white people
giggles knowing that spike still doesn't know if I'm a racist or not!
