not that you would know, but i have. seen it and experienced it. i know it's out there in full force, but that doesn't make selective racism ok.

this white guilt is a joke, and needs to stop.

You've experienced white racism? Because thats what I mean.


And I'd like to point out, the whole ashy skin thing was pure ignorance. Calling someone a whitey because most likely you've been mistreated by white people is a response.

So since I have been mistreated by a black person or people I can call them a name of choice? I suppose I can do the same with Mexicans and Asians.

Cool I have a free right to use racial slurs as I please because they have wronged me

Oh I know but I m only going to be using it as a response.

If you are going to justify something then think about it a bit and how people will take advantage of the exact same line of reasoning

I hope my daughter doesn't date any of them whiteys, because I will shoot the first whitey I see on my property...damn whiteys taking over the world.
Dude now you are just arguing for the sake of it... when you call a black guy a nig**r it's only truly hurtful because of the history behind the word and the atrocities that happened in the pass. Factor in the real act (apart being called a nig**r once in a while) of discrimination that this person had to endure during his life, maybe not from you personally but from others who would also use this term.

The derogatory words used to describe a white person does not have that heritage, that pass related it. I have yet to see a act (physical apart from just being called whitey) of this "reverse racism".

I do also agree that sometimes the white man is accused a bit to anxiously of being racist. I didn't read the finger joke that everyone is talking about... so can't/wont comment on that.

I didn't justify it. I was pointing out the difference with the ashy hands thing and this.
