Do you find it funny that some people compare Old Black Panthers to KKK?
The Black Panther Party For Self-Defense was just that, a defensive group. The KKK (which was created the same year the NRA was formed) was a hate group that had one main purpose, destruction. They had no right to feel like they needed to get revenge, they weren't victims, all they did was antagonize innocent people.
Was slavery black people's own fault?
Since black people were the ones selling their own people for slaves, they pretty much started it. But also, just look at the behavior of black people in general. I'm definitely not being racist, or saying that all black people are bad, but I think most would agree that they have many more bad apples in their bunch than any other race. Pretty much targets them as slave material. I mean, if I wanted a few slaves today, who would I most likely pick but the trio of rude loudmouths walking down the street with their pants down disturbing the public. Again, not being racist, just realistic. If such a large percentage of them behave the way they do, even in this day and age in civilized america, I can only imagine what they were like back in uncivilized africa. Obviously there was some strong reason black people were selected rather than mexicans, asians, whites, and other races. I'd imagine they did it to themselves with their own behavior, and own choice to sell each other. What do you guys think?
Why do black people get so offended?
I don't even know where to start. First, I don't believe that you're a racist and that word gets thrown around too much. I doubt that you have the power to oppress any group of people through discrimination regardless of race. Are you insensitive? Probably. But it sounds really like you don't actually have a grasp on racial issues in this country. By your statements it doesn't seem like you completely understand why certain things are offensive, what happened to lead to those things being sensitive issues, or why it's not ok to disregard the feelings of others. If these "black friends" of yours told you something about "mak(ing) us slaves and chained us up" then you've been given a bad answer. Let's use your examples, cracker and the "N" word. First, cracker wasn't specifically created as a term to offend white people and further dehumanize them while they were being oppressed. That's why the N word was used. You said yourself, cracker doesn't make most whites upset and it's even funny. But you know the N word does upset black people and they don't find the humor in being called that. So rather than answering with a history lesson of race relations in America how about we just start with the basics of common courtesy, don't say things that can hurt peoples feelings or things people are sensitive about. And when you do say something that somebody finds offensive, if you meant to do it or not, don't make things worst by disregarding why they feel that way. Apologize and move on. If you really want to know what the big deal is, read up on it a bit.
Why do black people ruin pretty much everything? (nonracist)?
First and foremost I am NOT a racist, I have dated many black/multiracial/asian/hispanic girls in my lifetime. That being said I've noticed an appalling trend both inside and out of the US. Whenever black people congregate in a particular area/make up the majority everything goes to ****. Historically we can look at places such as Detroit and Atlanta, and the corresponding crime rate and economic struggles that occur when whites fled and blacks became the average citizen. I am not trying to say black people are inherently bad or less intelligent than whites, but why is it black culture is so destructive? I don't know any other group of people who are as much a turn off as young black men? Their entire youth culture is based around sex, drugs, violence, and expensive sneakers. What black culture avoids is education and personal responsibility. Now we live in a free country, but I sometimes yearn for the days of segregation. Way too many times I've been walking with a black or half black girlfriend and been harassed/attacked/or attempted to be provoked by young black guys who were jealous that a white guy was dating an attractive negroe girl. I don't find blacks intimidating, although they're the only racial group I know to fight in groups of three to four instead of one on one, but honestly who wants to be around such negative "people." I thought to myself it could just be the American gangster culture that many blacks subscribe to, but even when traveling outside the US it seems to be a persistent trend. In the UK most black immigrants live in slums that I was suggested to avoid due to the high crime rate in the area. In France negroes commit the majority of crimes despite being a minority of the population, I even witnessed blacks rioting during my stay. My only question is WHY. Why do blacks act the way they do? Why isn't any other race as seemingly hostile, isolated, and barbaric? Why would you want to make the places you live a hell hole?
Is any one else tired of hearing about slavery reparations?
I am so tired of hearing about slavery reperations, it was well over a hundred years ago get over it. If you spent as much time educating your self as you do looking for a meal ticket you would live the American dream. If you were personaly enslaved i am sorry and email me for you check. If not please shut up. The real root of rasicm now days is not the whites wanting to keep the blacks down, we are just tired of all the complaning. Slavery was a terrible thing but christ it was along time ago, and if it would of never happened you would be in Africa right now chasing zebras with a spear with a bad case of aids. Please dont let what happened to you distant relatives be in vain..... get an education and live the american dream. whites dont hate blacks we are just tired of being called racist....what do you think
Why are black people the only race of people seeking acceptance from others?
It seems like black people are going on this campaign to prove to other races that we arent bad people when we werent in the first place. We didnt go to other continents, rape, enslave, brainwash other peoples and we didnt bring any others to near/extinction People of other races prejudge before meeting or speaking to someone of African descent and believe everything they see in the media. For this, i dont associate with other races because to them, you're inferior. I use them to my advantage but never get too close to them
