America has problems, but America is NOT THE PROBLEM!~
Denouncing poilitical correctness
Published on April 26, 2005 By Moderateman In Misc
While watching {for the hundreth time} news hashing over the handcuffing of the 5 year old black child, I was struck by one thing.

To a man/woman when the speaker is black the charge of racisim comes to the front lines, not a misjudgement, not poor training, because the cops were white, IT HAD TO BE RACIST BEHAVIOR.

While I agree that racisim and bigotry excist, NOT EVERY ACTION that has negative results is a form of racisim.

Since the advent of the civil rights act, blacks have learned that the one way to disarm a white person is to scream race, loud and often.
THE BLACK CRIMINAL ARRESTED BY A WHITE COP, screams racisim in the hopes of a reduced sentence or to be let off completely.

Jesse Jackson the man that could have taken Dr. kings place has chose instead to rape the whites of money in the name of reverse racisim. This behavior is ATRIBUTED to the climate of political correctness, that in my opinion is destroying america.

No longer can a man say to a woman "you look nice in that new dress" without worry of sexual harressmant charges.
No longer can a man like bill O'reilly say that he disagrees with the antics of sean penn {white} tim robbins {white} and danny glover {black} without glover calling bills comments Racist .

When will this end? never I say as long a political correctness holds sway in america.

Was the bahavior of the three cops bad judgement? yes. was it racist? hardly.

Now for anyone that wants to tackle me head on calling me some kind of racist I will gladly debate this < I know who I am, the bad and the good and racisim is not part of my make-up.

if a white made this comment publically he/.she would be crusified.


I assume you mean if I white person made the comment about black people? I'm "a white," if that makes any difference.

Actually, we hear this kind of generalization every day, 's called the Press, and it is not only accepted, but to try to argue against it also gets you called, "Homophobic" and "Hypocrite".


I don't think it's that bad.

To a man/woman? What does that mean? You don't even know who you're generalizing anymore.


the above means that males and femals that are black agreed, it was racist,, do not be so damn quick to judge philo,

On the same note, your caps-locked statement is one of the most disgusting generalizations I've ever read from you. The Black criminal? Are you joking?


since I AM SPEAKING ABOUT BLACKS becomming professional victims black criminal seems approiate.
Again, I would say the question is not why is it done, but why is it still so effective?


it's effective because of the collective guilt whites feel about slavery. geeze philo sometimes a comment is just that,, not some deep arcane thing.

How would you feel if I said THE REPUBLICAN VOTER is a homophobic, Bible-thumping follower who has no problem accepting violence as long as it is directed towards the homosexual and pro-choice individuals that they feel threatened by? You might get kind of upset at that statement, yes?

So, I guess things are tough all over. ;~D


and who turns every event involving a black and a white into a dog and pony show?/ THE media!! but philo knows this.

Notice how I made the comment publicly. And I quoted the sentence I was directly replying to, because it was kind of far removed from where my post would appear and I wanted to give it some context. Anyone who read my post would have already read your post, of course, so as a courtesy to people who don't like to read the same thing twice I quoted as little as possible. I'm not sure what you're getting at, though. What does the second sentence lose if it's said without the first sentence?

I can't believe I'm in a debate about this. Honestly, the "too much makeup" part was more central to the image I pictured than the "white" part. If anyone wants to accuse me of being prejudiced against women who wear too much makeup, I'd be glad to respond to that.

"To a man/woman when the speaker is black the charge of racism comes to the front lines" means "Black females and males agreed that it was racist." Is that what you're saying? Gee, how did I miss that? Were you going to mention the Black males and females who don't think it's racist?

since I AM SPEAKING ABOUT BLACKS becomming professional victims black criminal seems approiate.


Using a phrase such as "the Black criminal" makes you sound like you're posturing as some sort of authority figure on crime, as opposed to someone with an opinion. And speaking of Black people becoming professional criminals, I don't see how you've even begun to address that issue. All you're doing is mentioning something that SOME minority criminals do to try to get themselves off the hook. Do you want me to write a list about the things white criminals do to get off and write an article about how whites are becoming professional criminals?

It's also refreshing how you've decided to stop differentiating between Black people and Black criminals. Good strategy, that.

it's effective because of the collective guilt whites feel about slavery. geeze philo sometimes a comment is just that,, not some deep arcane thing.


Its effective because when minorities are arrested, there is enough occurrence of racism to make all claims of racism plausible.

unfortunatly blacks that think this was not racist do not sell papers or slots on the media.

"Black females and males agreed that it was racist."


Isn't it ironic how, if a person says, "Black Females and Males agree, Soul Food is good", that is racist, but then you lump all "Black Females and Males" together to generalize them all as having the same opinion on what is racist and what isn't, and **poof**, you can pat yourself on the back and consider yourself "enlightened".

One of the few times that I was accused of racism, and was actually guilty as charged, was when I singled out a fellow troop (who was Black) to get his opinion of the a racially charged event at the time.

And? What does this have to do with whether or not you mention this?

philo I am not going to arue with you about this, you want to feel I am some sort of closet monster.. so be it! BOOOO


I'm giving you opportunities to clarify your points left and right here. The fact that you won't is kinda disappointing.

Eh. If you'd asked me in person, I'd have said the same thing. If I was the sort of person who went on television shows I'd probably have said the same thing there, too. I can't believe I'm being accused of being racist against my own race.

Just curious, why did you quote the whole post if you were only going to reply to a small part of it? Not that I really wanted a reply, I'm just wondering why we need the extra clutter.

Huh? I don't get what you're trying to say? Are you saying I'm playing myself off as enlightened?

philo the reason I could not mention any blacks that thought it wass NOT racist was because I did not see or hear any that said so. simple huh?

And I was asking a question, are blacks professional victims, then I stated what I thought.
