And whites should TOTALLY be punished for the decisions of their ancestors. Because, you know, we totally agree with what they did.. And hell, we were there. Unborn, of course, but we were there being racist too. So its totally justified.
Forget the fact that most of us are NOT racist, we should still be punished for something we didnt do.
Exactly. No one's that racist now, so stereotyping of southerners... (actually, that's the only white stereotype I can think of) should be treated the same way as any other stereotype. Which is not being treated at all. As I said, It's a joke, and if black people didn't like it, they would say something. They don't need hippies saying it has to be "politically correct" for them.
I can think of some more "White" steryotypes.
Burly, say "ski" alot - Russians.
Big noses - Jews and those of the British Ilse
British accents.

A great man said "when someone tells a joke about someone else and they both laugh, the world will be a better place". Thats my ethos on this topic, no one has any justification to insult anyone because of race.
Ben Crosshaw said that. The reason 3/4 of the people here signed up for this site

Racism of all forms is wrong. The thing is that when a black man is racist towards a white man, its insulting. When a white man is racist towards a black man, the black mans school gets underfunded, he is denied from a job he is qualified to do which would support his family, and there kids start getting treated as second class citizens. That's why people freak out more over white people being racist, because when they are racist its a lot easier for them to be discriminatory.
THIS
Please tell me, when was the last time any of this happened? From the way I see it, a black man get's arrested not because of his race, but because of a mass homiside

Another prime example is child molestation. Which, in any form, I think is an act punishable by immediate death. However, when a boy is molested by his teacher, or next door neighbor...I don't think there's a time I've never heard someone say 'What a lucky kid' or 'Where were these teachers when I was a kid'. And yes, guys do say this also, but I've heard/seen many a female roll their eyes and audibly wonder if the male considered it abuse. Now, flip the coin, female molested by an adult male.
What's wrong with molestation? To molester just means to abuse. To tell a child to clean up his room is now punishable by death? Because your abusing the child by teaching him/her responcabilities? I find what you said might be a little too rebelious.

To me, being racist towards a white person and being racists towards a black person. History should teach us that we are equal to everyone not oh give them some lea-way because of the past. We should learn from history not repeat it.
I take offense to that.
I am not equal to a muslim. Muslims are below us, and that's why they are called "muslims" (And especially the Taslim, who I feel sorry for because of the frequency of deaths they get for being persecuted by the other muslims)

Well considering whites were racist and done horrible things towards:
Native Americans
Blacks
Asians
Latinos
Middle easterners
Hindus
Jews
and even their own women. (You know not having any civil rights and all)
Hindus, Jews and Women are all their own race?
All racism is bad. Nobody should be "allowed" to be racists just because of something that happened in the past. I think that special treatment towards minorities is racist towards those who are not part of a minority.
I'm white, I don't get any special scholarships because of it, why should anyone else?
Hold on...

So i think we owe black people something, you'll just have to deal with it.
What does a guy in chains and a very low budget Halloween party have to do with any thing? (Seriously, they are all dressed up like ghosts using bed sheets... lame.)
