Doesn’t bother me. It’s been such an overtly used term, it has pretty much been regulated to the “Boy who cried wolf” story and classification.

If someone hears the term anymore, it means they must be on the target and on the right track.

It means you’ve just won an argument.

Yup, “crying racism” has been so overused by minorities (mostly blacks) and liberals, that it has no stigma for me. It just signals to me that I’ve won an argument, because they obviously have nothing else to answer with.

Yes, it's the modern equivalent of crying "witch"!

In addition, there are more and more whites who, after prolonged contact with blacks and black culture, have run out of sympathy. A LOT of people have come to the conclusion that blacks have only themselves to blame for most of their trouble.

If you haven't already read it, there was a tremendously informative and moving post on craiglist by a high school teacher who taught for a couple years in an 80% black high school. The listing was posted on FR a week or two ago. It was entitled, Craigslist: Essay by a Teacher in a Black School. It tracks well with my own more limited experience of trying to teach SAT classes to a heavily African-American group of students in Houston. The longer one is in direct contact with these people, the more one's sympathy for them vanishes. It's sad, but the experience is growing more common. More and more people just don't give a damn about being called "racist." Far from being based on prejudice, the reaction stems from prolonged, daily contact. Sadly, it just doesn't pay off to try to help the majority of blacks in this country. They must be to be left to their own devices until they get fed up with their own degradation and start changing themselves.
