okay, smokin...no way... (none / 1)

You said...

"The problem I have with racism in today's world is that minorities don't see the hypocrisy in their actions."

That's your problem with racism today?

Not the kids being thrown out of the pool...not the american system of codified slavery (i.e.the penal system), not the hundreds of comments I alone hear everyday on the factory floor from whites, such as "n" word and so forth...oh no...for you, that is all in the past? or not so concerning?

Your biggest issue with racism is the minorities inability to see their own hypocrisy?

Oy vey...

If I didn't know any better, and I don't, you are beginning to sound like one of those whites I am racialist against. You strike me as a white who under their breath, and in 'certain' company, will 'let er rip' when it comes to your own racialist views...

You have the backdoor, back way in, yes...underground...way of being a racialist...seriously dude...I just have that feeling...

Let the chips fall...

Good catch (none / 0)
When someone loses power as has happened to whites as they've had to yield to the rights of other races, they sometimes want to feel sorry for themselves and see themselves as victims.  Therefore it's helpful to them to focus on the flaws of their made-up "oppressors" rather than on the real issues and their own flaws.

Abused children are less important to some than their own loss of prestige.  Smokin' was definitely focusing on a side issue.

Still, racism is not merely a whites-only problem.
