that's what people do when they run out of serious things to say. I think a few posts you up were (wrongly) calling me a hypocrite. I explained my position, in as much detail as I could, as to why none of you have any idea what the fuck you're talking about.
You came back with dribble.
#shroomerylogic
edit: whoops. Sorry Viva. YOu didnt call me a hypocrite - qman did. You called me racist.

All this having been said...
Wiccan, you do not, and can not, understand race relations in America. You've never lived in a rough american neighborhood populated mostly by low-income blacks and black families. That's all i'm sayin. I have. And I know why everyone in this thread is responding as ignorantly as they are.

You're all so white (I am too), you don't even understand what privilege black people are talking about (I don't, fully).
It's not a privilege of money, or of the ability to drink from a certain fountain or drive a certain car. It's the privilege to avoid inherently negative stereotypes before doing anything to warrant the application of a specifically negative stereotype. That's as accurately as I can describe it. And I'm not sure it hits the mark.
I'm not here to debate, because it's clear all of your minds are not open to such an idea. You have your ingrained viewpoints - I get it. I used to hold them. Then I got battered in the head enough by my smart black friends - and now i see a little of the light. Just because I can see the light, doesn't mean I can feel the heat. I'll never feel the heat, i'm white.
I'm glad you caught a glimpse of it. You are now officially part of the "white guilt" crew, prepare for the onslaught.

I get the fact that blacks are looked at constantly as if they've done something wrong, even when they haven't. I cant change the thinking of those people.

I've been a member of the white guilt crew long before I caught a glimpse. White guilt is inherent these days. It comes from PCness

Guess what, 99% of Americans does not understand the exact nuance of it. No one in this thread gets it. I know a lot more about race relations in general and the American situation than most, this by having studied it, scrutinized it and seen it from many sides whereas most simply hardly spend thought looking into it and when they do seldom leave their well defended trench.
I'm attacked directly by a group of naysayers who grossly oversimplify my nuances to have it fit their mould, but I know a great deal more than what I post about, I just choose not to go there because I know the tactics of the naysayers, its futile to engage them in discussion.

Guess what, almost no one in this thread has. Should they be silenced too? I grew up in multicultural surroundings myself, i'm no stranger to the issues that transcend borders.

I do too, and most of it has nothing to do with them being American or having greater insight in the situation. In fact, quite the contrary.
I know the limits of what I know and the limits of my personal experience. One doesnt have to be an insider to see many of the forces that are in play and in fact outsiders can bring viewpoints to the table that the ones in the trenches are too caught up for to notice.

"It's the privilege to avoid inherently negative stereotypes before doing anything to warrent the application"
Even if this statement was true, what does it have to do with the self destructive behavior that permeates the black culture?
What does this have to do with black on black crime? Having children that they can't afford? Out of wedlock children? Absentee fathers? Fiscal irresponsibility? Lack of educational ambitions?
Your white guilt theories are a failure, stop making excuses for controllable behavior.
"I can see the light"
There is no light where your head is positioned the majority of the time.

I didn't know that negro was an appropriate term for the pub. Is colored acceptable as well?
