7-Year-Old Accused of Racism For Asking "Are You Brown Because You Are From Africa?" | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 11103009 Germany 02/19/2012 03:02 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Black folks are ashamed of being black. Which is why they try their best to hook up with white women or any other race because they won't accept the fact that their asses was born black and they are gonna die black. Get over it! it is what it is! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1031229 And IF that were the case, why are they ashamed of being black? It's easy to spew stupidity and ignorance while taking subtle shots, but try to find the root of their self-hatred. Dig into the history of West Africans who were forced into slavery and spread across the globe. See how they contributed to the foundation of America and got nothing in return. I won't even get into the violence and psychological abuse these Africans endured. Let's move into the 60's-80s where black people were mistreated and disrespected day in and day out. Homes burned, churches burned, kids killed, black teen boys disappearing only to be found lynched in the woods. Now the 80s, the imports of drugs and guns and the lust for material wants are a bad mix. Where were these energies being directed? To poor black teens surrounded by guns and drugsin poor neighborhoods. What's left to do? Your family doesn't have shit. Your father was kicked out because that would be only way your "household" could qualify for government benefits. So now you have no direction from a male figure, your mother is never home, Your white school teachers couldn't give two shits if you learned or not. So what to do? Sell the drugs that were brought into your neighborhood. Start adding things up buddy. There's a reason little black girls are picking white dolls instead of black dolls when it comes to preference. Do you research and learn about the people you are talking shit about before you speak again. Excuse, excuses. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 4720785 This is partially true, But there is nothing white's can do right now. It is even written in the bible who can make war with the beast? The only thing white's can do right now is segregate themselves. |

People are in a bad mindset. I believe once the government removes the carrots, and the currency becomes sound without price manipulation by the Federal Reserve, the racial blindness that my generation has grown up with will set the groundwork for a very prosperous society. One that naturally excludes the most of the racism of yesterday. Love thy enemy. |

Racial supremacy, as is displayed in many comments on this thread, is what caused the disarray of the black descendants since slavery in America. We need to concentrate on providing more freedom and less government redistribution to the poor, creating dependence, and corporations, which kills small businesses. Love thy enemy. |

Although I fundamentally disagree with blaming the victim , I do believe that at a certain point one must take control of their life and heal past abuses in order to move on. If blacks sit around and wait for whites to mend they're wicked ways they will be waiting for an eternity. It is up to them at this point to move foward, which many have. Of course. The problem historically has been unfortunately met with political assassinations of black leaders and activists. Many accuse Obama of being a leftist but if you really watch his policies he has repeatedly implemented the plans of the neocons since getting into office. So what we have is a situation where it's ok to appear as a liberal black and gain political clout but you better not dare act on those ideals or else your dead. Literally. This is a very difficult situation for the black community. Do not be fooled rascim is alive and well it's just become more sophisticated and hides behind closed doors. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1236392 Canada 02/19/2012 03:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What the hell????!!! The politically correct liberals have ruined this country!!!! I am so sick of it!!!!! Quoting: truthwillsetyoufreeagain ^^^^THIS^^^^ "Out of the mouths of babes" Takes on a whole new meaning now doesn't it? It was an innocent question enough, but to have people pervert it into something that it isn't... If the mother had a problem with it, then SHE is the one with the problem. Not the child, as he didn't even know what the word: RACIST is in the first place. An incident such as this should have NEVER been blown out of proportion at all; let alone had the media involved. Rediculous, to say the least. Should have been dealt with...WITHOUT any media involvement. Good parenting skills would have suggested that the boys be brought aside and talk about the circumstances in a CALM manner, without involving outside influences. There was no need of what transpired via media. What ever happened to COMMON SENSE?!?!? It went out the window when idiots decided they wanted their 15 mins of fame, and allowed the media a foot in the door - to continually pick at the already festering wound that we've brought upon ourselves with this so-called 'political correctiveness' BULLSHIT in the first place. Mind you, there's a time and place for everything under the sun, but it's a sad state of affairs when we can't discern what is 'couth' and what isn't. An average child at 7 yrs of age doesn't even know what that means; let alone if he/she is offending anyone with his words. This is where we need to take hold of the reins, and NOT bring in a camera crew - EVERYTIME that little person makes an error. Hells bells! Why not go even further and install a freaking camera inside every classroom?!?! That way it can be decided whether a child is 'LOOKING the right way', 'TALKING the right way', or even 'BREATHING the right way' Even better, let's just set them all up against firing squads right off the bat, because we KNOW they're going to make mistakes, and who in the hell needs THAT in a 'perfect society'? *WOW*...just...wow. I'd like to use the word: 'unbelievable' right now, but as it stands, this word is being overused to many degrees everywhere. That word itself implies something else; as we've been so complacent as of late, and when spoken or written, it just carries just a 'sigh' or groan. Nothing spectacular. Western society NEEDS to be 'more in touch' with their kids. We HAVE to make time with our children, and we NEED to see/meet their needs. And most of all... We need to sit down with them and tell them ALL about why we don't look/act like the next door neighbors...if anything. Canada and the U.S. founded OUR countries upon diversity. There wasn't any media intervening (as such) back in the day when immigrants landed upon our shores; let alone 'family-by-family' daily/personal events that cropped up in the newspaper. We dealt with circumstances as they arose, and worked with things to come. People learned to deal with the 'everyday' nuances, and got on with their business. Then why should it be any different today? Why involve a 7 yr old, and what he said to another - innocent remark? Is the media THAT desperate...NAY...the 'mother of the offended'...THAT DESPERATE, as to get their 15 mins of fame televised? And for what cause? So that another child who is curious about why someone who lost a limb doesn't look like them might ask: "Did you lose your leg in a war?" (When in fact the leg was taken due to cancer) Or another child asking someone: "Is your face scarred because it was burn't?" (not realizing that the other person had bad acne.) Or..."Are you brown because you are from Africa?" |

White's are always racist, but in fact every other race is OVERLY racist towards whites. Fuck that. White people dominated the world for a reason. Now, we've been made to feel bad about it? Fuck that. The world is racist towards whites because we're still the most intelligent and crafty of all races. Reverse racism, along with overpopulation will be the biggest social issues of the 21st century. Driven by the fact that white people have 2 kids or less (thus shrinking the white population) and asians, hispanics, and blacks are having 4+ kids, thus doubling their population. |

But that is not what is in the cards and don't for a second believe that it is not intentional because it is. It's easy to sit on the outside and judge away. After all that is what the system wants. Keep us distracted with blaming the poor for our problems while the real criminals sit in their mansions laughing all the way to the bank while throwing you just enough bread crumbs so that you don't start asking the real questions. |
