Bad topic to discuss, brings out the ugly in people.

For example if a group of neo-Nazis or the K-K-K want to have a rally, then they bloody well have the right to do it, whether you like it or not.

Exactly right, and other people have the right to tell you their opinion right back.

I'll agree that a lot of this hasn't gotten a bit to personal. However you'll find that when race, religion, politics, or on here, schools, come into a discussion, there is always people who go to far.

I'm not going to get into the Native American stuff. Yes you are right- they haev been treated just as badly. BUT after slavery ended African-Americans still had it bad. They weren't treated with respect or dignity or given some of our basic rights (like voting). Sure there was an amendment granting them the right to vote, but most of the time they were prevented from doing so. Heck the white people wouldn't even let them go to the same school! I understand what you are trying to say but i have to agree with elp6n- a lot of white people have the same kinds of attitude.

Native Americans still have it rough today.

On my way back to Berea on a Greyhound bus tonight I was sitting in front of a couple of black people and one was complaining about a hotel not having BET on the TVs in the rooms sayin "yeah we black people be needin' dat entertainment", giving the black people even more of the stereotype of wanting to be bowed down to.

Good point. I wonder what would happen if a white person dared to start a channel called "White Entertainment Television"

Oh god forbid.. if they did something like that they might be called a racist. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

Or god forbid we might ever have.. White History Month!

Can't anyone see the hypocrisy in this? If blacks or one of these other minorities have a special month or TV channel or whatever set aside for them, then its always ok. But if such a thing were done for White people, then they would automatically be labeled as evil racists. So it's ok for black people to be proud of their race but it's not ok for white people to do the same thing? Ridiculous!!

Outstanding post. Very well said.

**imported_trumpet1988** · March 6th, 2007, 02:35 PM

Yep. I do tend to be immature. I do however admit I'm wrong when I realize it. I don't go around saying "INBRED COUPLE! INBRED COUPLE!" I am not on here stooping to personal insults with those who disagree with me. I don't go around telling people how they are the worst poster. I'm not bringing up the past like you are doing. Oh how immature that is.

Anyway, I'm done with this.

No. You chose to come on here after the PV/Coeburn game a couple of years ago when Knight 67 was ejected from the game because another player hit a player who happened to be black and he was wrongfully blamed, you proceded to call him a racist on the board. I'm still trying to figure out how someone getting a cheapshot in a game is "just racist" <<<your words.
