How many are actually paying attention to this?

Published on October 30, 2008 By ShadowGryphon In Life

There are African Americans,

Mexican Americans,
Asian Americans,
Arab Americans,
Native Americans, etc.
...And then there are just -
Americans.

You pass me on the street
and sneer in my direction.
You Call me "White boy,"
"Cracker," "Honkey,"
"Whitey," "Caveman,"
... And that's OK.

But when I call you Nigger,
Kike, Towel head,
Sand-nigger, Camel Jockey,
Beaner, Gook, or Chink
... You call me a racist.

You say that whites commit a lot
of violence against you,
so why are the ghettos the most
dangerous places to live?

You have the United Negro College Fund.
You have Martin Luther King Day.
You have Black History Month.
You have Cesar Chavez Day.
You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi.
You Have Yom Hashoah.
You have the NAACP.
And you have BET.

If we had WET
(White Entertainment Television)
... We'd be racists.

If we had a White Pride Day
... You would call us racists.

If we had White History Month
... We'd be racists.

If we had any organization for only whites
to "advance" OUR lives .
... We'd be racists.

We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce,
a Black Chamber of Commerce,
and then we just have the plain
Chamber of Commerce.
Wonder who pays for that?

If we had a college fund that only gave
white students scholarships
... You know we'd be racists.

There are over 60 openly-proclaimed
Black-only Colleges in the US ,
yet if there were "White-only Colleges"
... THAT would be a racist college.

In the Million Man March,
you believed that you were
marching for your race and rights.
If we marched for our race and rights,
... You would call us racists.

You are proud to be black,
brown, yellow and orange,
and you're not afraid to announce it.
But when we announce our white pride

... You call us racists.

You rob us,
carjack us,
and shoot at us.
But, when a white police officer
shoots a black gang member
or beats up a black drug-dealer
who is running from the LAW and
posing a threat to ALL of society
... You call him a racist.

I am proud.
... But, you call me a racist.

Why is it that only
whites
can be racists?

When is enough, enough ?

I didn't write this, I simply posted it as is.

So go flame someone else if you cannot be constructive.

Dam SanCho, a legitimate article and the best you can do is criticize the way it was posted rather than the meaning? What happen to you? You use to give really good comments, even if they were not alweays something I agreed with, still your comments were worth reading. Now you have resorted to lame comments like these. I think these elections have brought out the worst in a lot of people.

About the article,

It's interesting to see how most people see the world thru their convenience now a days. I have an article pointing out how some people in the Black community will take anything and turn it into racist statements such as when a Gov't official used the term Black Hole to discribe how money was being used up in that State the wrong way yet one of the Gov't officials called it a racist statement. Or when Hannity used the word Kool-aid to describe how some people take words from people like Obama and don't question any of it, just go with it and some callers (black callers cause they said they were black) called angry because they thought he was being racist, as if kool-aid had some kind of direct connection to black people. And now we have this election where any comments against Obama and his policies are racist as well. This is a real sad moment in history to say the least, like your other article, here we have radical people who will tunr any term into a racist term while the rest of the country ignores this as "that's no big deal, he/she is just another big mounth".
