Racism!

could not agree more!

on a personal note, i have always judged people on how they present them selfs.

if you dress like a "gangsta" expect to be treated like one, my point is if you want respect and equality, you have to present yourself as a respectful classy individual. ever single race on earth has it's low life thrash, whites have the trailer park thrash rednecks of which some may be or may not be members of white supremacy groups. blacks have there gangster's and those who make exscuse's that "the man" holds them down and not there own mentality, behavior, or how they present themselfs. hispanics have there shaved headed "chollo's" (forgive me if it is misspelled) and there illegal alien's who came here thinking everything is going to be made easy for them (which the u.s. has done) on a side note it does anger me that every time i make a call i'm forced to listen to a spanish recording before i hear it in english!.

now i could go on and on with other race's but the point is, i like black people who don't make exscuse's and carry themselfs respectfully (i have black friends/neighbors of whom all are respectable people). i don't discriminate based on skin color, but instead on how you present and carry yourself. i myself am a mix polish/Rroma also known as "gypsy" which is a racial slur itself. 100's of thousands of my people died in concentration camps in WWII along with the jewish, but i'm not looking for any sympathy nor am i going to hold a grudge against any german's.. (at least under the age of 70!) to do so would be ignorant.

i do not expect to have a recorded message in polish or Rromaness on every automated system. why, because i'm in the u.s.a. where i was born (texas) and raised (cali) and english is our national language. to go to another country and try to make it adapt to your old one is a big insult. i'm tired of all kinds of people being weak and making exscuse's for them selfs to justify there actions or in-actions. the world would be a better place if everybody took responsability for themselfs and excepted there own actions... there will always be people judging others, as long as they give them a reason to judge... that of course is my oppinion.

 

Remember also ... racism = ignorance.

 

I whole heartedly agree with this statement ... Racism is just not needed in today's society ...

 

On the same note of this topic ... I just got this, this morning ... It is a transcript of Andy Roony from 60 Minutes. I really breaks down the common sense of the American, as a whole. Don't forget, this is one man's opinion ... but it does hit "Close to Home":

 

Andy Rooney said on "60 Minutes" a few weeks back:

 

I don't think being a minority makes you a victim of anything except numbers. The only things I can think of that are truly discriminatory are things like the United Negro College Fund, Jet Magazine, Black Entertainment Television, and Miss Black America. Try to have things like the United Caucasian College Fund, Cloud Magazine, White Entertainment Television, or Miss White America; and see what happens...Jesse Jackson will be knocking down your door.

 

Guns do not make you a killer. I think killing makes you a killer. You can kill someone with a baseball bat or a car, but no one is trying to ban you from driving to the ball game.

 

I believe they are called the Boy Scouts for a reason, that is why there are no girls allowed. Girls belong in the Girl Scouts! ARE YOU LISTENING MARTHA BURKE?

 

I think that if you feel homosexuality is wrong, it is not a phobia, it is an opinion.

 

I have the right "NOT" to be tolerant of others because they are different, weird, or tick me off.

 

When 70% of the people who get arrested are black, in cities where 70% of the population is black, that is not racial profiling, it is the Law of Probability.

 

I believe that if you are selling me a milkshake, a pack of cigarettes, a newspaper or a hotel room, you must do it in English! As a matter of fact, if you want to be an American citizen, you should have to speak English!

 

My father and grandfather didn't die in vain so you can leave the countries you were born in to come over and disrespect ours.

 

I think the police should have every right to shoot your sorry ass if you threaten them after they tell you to stop. If you can't understand the word "freeze" or "stop" in English, see the above lines.

 

I don't think just because you were not born in this country, you are qualified for any special loan programs, government sponsored bank loans or tax breaks, etc., so you can open a hotel, coffee shop, trinket store, or any other business.

 

We did not go to the aid of certain foreign countries and risk our lives in wars to defend their freedoms, so that decades later they could come over here and tell us our constitution is a living document; and open to their interpretations.

 

I don't hate the rich, I don't pity the poor.

 

I know pro wrestling is fake, but so are movies and television. That doesn't stop you from watching them.

 

I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made and continue to make more. If it ticks you off, go and invent the next operating system that's better, and put your name on the building.

 

It doesn't take a whole village to raise a child right, but it does take a parent to stand up to the kid; and smack their little behinds when necessary, and say "NO!"

 

I think tattoos and piercing are fine if you want them, but please don't pretend they are a political statement. And, please, stay home until that new lip ring heals. I don't want to look at your ugly infected mouth as you serve me French fries!

 

I am sick of "Political Correctness." I know a lot of black people, and not a single one of them was born in Africa; so how can they be "African-Americans"? Besides, Africa is a continent. I don't go around saying I am a European-American because my great, great, great, great, great, great grandfather was from Europe. I am proud to be from America and nowhere else.

 

And if you don't like my point of view, tough...

 

I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG, OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

AND TO THE REPUBLIC, FOR WHICH IT STANDS, ONE NATION UNDER GOD,

INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!

 

I was asked to send this on if I agree or delete if I don't. It is said that 86% of Americans believe in God. Therefore I have a very hard time understanding why there is such a problem in having "In God We Trust" on our money and having "God" in the Pledge of Allegiance. Why don't we just tell the 14% to Shut Up and BE QUIET!!!

I saw the remark about Carlos Mencia and Dave Chappelle, these guys make a living doggin on white people and nobody ever says anything!

 

YES. Very true. Mencia is annoying. The only thing that allows him to make fun of white people is the fact he makes fun of mexicans and is mexican.

 

BET. Its a TV channel, stands for Black Entertainment Television. Plays Rap/Hip Hop music videos. There will never be a day a TV channel is named WET and stands for White Entertainment Television. Why? Cause that would be racist. Maybe not, but seen as racist. Or the United Negro College Fund. I want to see the United Caucasion College fund. Not because Im racist, because its impossible. That idea would get thrown in the shitter. Racism goes both ways. Im not racist, just telling what I see.
