No, I haven't been to Germany, therefore I don't know that culture and that area, just as much as you don't know anything about Cherry Hill or you wouldn't have mentioned anything about gays or looking at someone funny. That's NOT what that neighborhood was about. It was about being black, and not being on the "wrong" side of the street or else you'd get your head bashed in.

The keyword being "was". Thank you for proving my point.

No, thank you for proving mine...again, you've never been there so you don't know HOW it is now, however I do.
*snickers* Not really. You can fire the black man all you goddamned want to, it's just that the employer doesn't want the lawsuit (and whites can sue just as much as any black person if they feel like they have been discriminated against for ANY reason).

Thats bullshit and you know that. Whites can't sue that they got fired and a black man took their job in order to fill quatas.
|
The fuck they can't! ANYONE can file a lawsuit for just about ANY reason. If they feel they got a case (and especially if they have proof!), you better believe they'll file that suit, in a goddamned heartbeat.
Because it's the only arguement that you seem to have regarding racism against whites. Plus, don't get mad just because the answer isn't what you want to hear.

No it's the only argument you have somewhat accepted. You ignore all the job realted arguments.

If that is what you want to believe...*shrugs*

When people say "racism" they assume whites discriminating blacks. Anyone trying to use racism to describe the inverse will get kicked out of court becasue of affirmative action etc.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please...with this modern society sueing each other left and right? SOMEbody's going to give that white person a chance to be heard in court someday and you know this.

You know that they won't. The black 'minority' is so strong that they'd never let he case be heard. Remember when Street was accused of corruption? What was the excuse? Racists FBI! Nope sorry. There is NO such thing as racism agaisnt whites in the US. According to current politics only blacks are affected by racism.

Wow, you based that on ONE INCIDENT???? Sheesh....

Alright bitch, so what's so bad about nigger? If the black community wants 'nigger' to go away, I suggest they stop using it first.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ooo, It must have felt soooo good to call me that.
But seriously, blacks not saying "niggah" to each other will NOT stop whites (or others) from calling a black person a nigger, and to believe otherwise is a foolish notion indeed.

Whoa, you're battin' a thousand today on those "moments" that I spoke of earlier...
Quote:

You still haven't explained why it's so offensive or such a big deal or why it's ok for blacks to use it and not ok for whites.
|
Ok, here's the explaination (which will probably not be "good enough" for you anyway, but you asked, so...)
It's all about context. Historically, when it's been said by whites to blacks, it was done in a way that was evil, nasty, derogatory and insulting...the tone, facial expression and hate behind it was evident. When blacks started using it towards each other in the context of "what up niggah", it's not said in hate. Either that's "right" or "wrong" it's not up to whites to tell blacks to not use it anymore and say "Well, if you guys say it, then we can say it"...it's just not a good idea quite frankly. You weren't here in the States when "Honky" was the word of choice to call "whitey" (back in the seventies). However, if whites called each other that in endearment, you didn't hear blacks crying, "Well, if THEY can use it towards each other, then we can say it to them toooooo". Know why? Because Blacks didn't give a shit about that! (at least THIS black person doesn't). I don't give a fuck WHAT white people call themselves because there are other things that I need to concern myself with.

The racism that goes on is NOTHING along the scales of the discrimination against the gay community and I see nothing along the lines of Scholarships for Fags or the Society of Gay Engineers.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
{sings}"I see your truuuue colors shinin' through...."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh I'm gay now? Great. Very mature. And what if I was? Yes? Is that bad? No? Why do you poke fun at it then? Go ahead..tell me. Do you discriminate against gay people?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Careful: you're paranoia is showing.
"Parania"?

Why are you changing the subject. Did you not imply that I was gay?

Nope. I implied that you were having a "true color moment", which you seem to have many of. Thanks though...it makes things MUCH more clearer.

Did you not imply it in such a way as to say that it was something I was trying to hide or should have been ashamed off?

Erm...nooooo. It...
really has no bearing on this conversation whatsoever, so calm down.
