FYI.

Words fail me when garbage like this actually gets published in a newspaper.

The corollary is it is easy to charge racism when you see white.

Step forward if you’ve ever been in a flash mob.
Step back if youngraduated high school.
Step forward if you have committed a violent crime.
Step back if you do not use drugs...

I just got back from a trip to Duluth. These billboards are everywhere, and every time I saw one, I wanted to puke. I would love to see an identical campaign based on the theme "It's hard to see equality when you've been brainwashed."

The "when you're white" signs are nothing more than racist themselves, and their message is appalling. But Duluth is populated with guilt-ridden left-wingers, socialists, and artsy types so this bilge plays well there.

when I was young, i got a job, and when i showed up for my first shift, the foreman looked at my name and said, “ I will not have another pollock on my shift”... I was fired after 3 hours.... I scored so high on an employment test, that the form said I was guaranteed a job.. when I went to talk to the HR person, this blonde bitch would not even look me in the eyes... she said, “ I’m sorry, but you are the wrong sex and the wrong color. If you were a black female, you would not even have had to take the test. I’m sorry, we have nothing for you.”.... then comes the time I was sued by a black male that threw a chair at me so hard it stuck in my wall... you see, to fire someone for assaulting you is racist (the case went on for 2 years before it was dropped, I refused to settle).... you all can take your charges of racism and go straight to hell, do not pass go, do not collect welfare...

How about “It’s hard to see your own racism when you’re part of a protected special minority class.”

Because that’s what it’s boiling down to now. This sh1t needs to end or the country will fracture. Dems and libs more than want it to happen.

Not so subtle Obama reelection propaganda.

Expect a daily deluge of this and similar articles/editorials targeting “white guilt”.

I would say until November, but in reality, it never ends.

Not hard to see at all.

DOJ stats regardig black/white crimes shows 90% of attacks are blacks against whites. White women are far more likely to be raped by a black man than a white man despite population differences.

I totally see the racism and it’s directed at me. Race card from libs, I don’t even acknowledge it anymore.

Actually, today it’s harder to see racism if you’re Black. All you can see is Black being victim.

Even though I did not vote for the obomination in the WH I honestly thought that his election might finally heal the open wounds of race that refuse to scab over because the likes of Sharpton, Jackson, Van Jones,... keep picking at the wound to make sure it keeps bleeding.

I was wrong and after 3+ years of the race pimp mafia being run from the WH, I am sick an tired of their race card crap.

This country is filled with minorities who came here LEGALLY learned the language and in some cases even had to learn an entirely new alphabet yet we have a democrat led plantation crowd who shows very little sign of wanting to improve their lot by becoming contributing members of our society. They seem to want to keep their hand out while at the same time bitch and whine that we are not giving them enough and playing the race card if we complain.

This male portion of this same group represents ~~6% of the USA’s population yet commit 50+% of all crimes. There is something wrong and playing the race card to hide this FACT only perpetuates this dependent, no responsibility, not my fault, we are held back by our skin color, excuse culture.

I’ve had it with these failures. If people even today can come to this country with nothing and not even speak the language and make something of themselves and their families maybe the race pimps need to look at their own race and culture for the real cause of their failures.

For every good American of African descent we still have the race pimps who do their best to make sure the “N” word is still relevant.

A bunch of us — all white, educated, and, I daresay, comfortable — watched a video.

Her time would have been better spent watching a DVD of "Blazing Saddles".

Two million steps forward if you have been labeled an “oppressor” because of your race, or told that your hard work was irrelevant because all men in your race were handed the best things in life on a silver platter, or read ads that encourage everyone except men of your race to apply.

All this cr@p isn’t racism at all.

It’s discrimination by cultural behavior.

When the majority of a group act in a way that is considered ‘wrong’ by another... all members of the group in question will be judged by the actions of their majority.

You get a clean-cut, well-dressed black or hispanic man in a suit-n-tie store and he’ll be no more discriminated against then the same white man.

But you get a gangsta rap ‘yoot’ with his pants around his knees while wearing a wife-beater... and they’ll be asked to leave, no matter the color.

What makes it sad is that certain cultural groups favor undesirable behavior over other groups.

Why is it White Liberals can see racism all the time when and where White Conservatives don't?

Ahhhh, White Conservatives are too ignorant and backwards to see their own racism.

Affirmative action is alive and well out in public for everyone to see. That is government supported racism.

No, I didn’t quite see the racism when I was applying for jobs that turned out to be for blacks only.

No, I didn’t quite see the racism when I was denied promotions because the company wanted “a higher visible black” on that job.

No, I didn’t quite see the racism when my work in college had to be above par for an average grade in “black” studies course and had to have my work put in binders with a cover page, and the blacks only had to scribble some stuff in a 3-ring notebook and rip it out like garbage, slap a staple in a corner somewhere . . . and they got a higher grade.

No, I’m too out of touch to see racism because I’m “white.”

I puke on this article.

That's because ‘racism’ is defined as disagreeing with a socialist.

Think about the evolution of terms. At one time, Negro was a commonly used term for a black person. Then the libs wanted to smear someone who used that term so suddenly Negro became a racist term.

Then Colored became the accepted term for a black person. That word too, became considered “racist” to stifle a whitey.

Then African-American became the accepted term. And then .. and then ... and then.

What the heck? All the while, those of us who are NOT racist in any sense are maligned by just discussing anything “BLACK”!

Even Blacks are dissed for using these terms to describe their heritage.

Of course, we ‘honkeys’ or honkies are hated in speech at will by all minorities. Hispanics can teach that it is OK to kill whites in order to retake areas of the Southwest.

Move to savannah, ga. You will quickly see what it is like to be white and the victim of black racists.

Look at the source: United Methodist Church. Every place I have ever lived in this country the women of the United Methodist Church have been quietly trying to upset the political applecart. I saw them at work in Berkeley and in Texas and other states as well.

Although I am Catholic, I have numerous ancestors who once were founders of various UMC congregations. I really don’t know why the modern members want to undermine our country. I don’t believe my ancestors were like that. Hillary was politicized as a teen by the UMC.

When Joe DiMaggio died, the WSJ ran a front page story on his life and career, in which the writer asserted that Joe encountered ‘racism’ at the beginning of his career? Racism? Where did he get started? In Japanese leagues? Or in the National Nigerian Baseball League?

College educated people (or probably even Ivy League, if they work at the WSJ) don’t know the term ethnocentrism! Everything is now ‘RACISM’!
