You don't get around much do you. I think racism from Blacks is more socially accepted but I can assure you that there are Whites who are every much as racist if not more than Blacks. Of course the higher degree of racist attitude a person has usually coincides with a lower education level they attain. Racism exists for the most part because of people blaming others for their situation which is usually do to their own actions or inactions.

But, black people can be racist - and very few people will say much about it. However, if a white person is a racist, then the spotlight is placed solidly on them.

Yup, it's all a double-standard.

Please explain.

Do we really need to revisit this. All one had to do is wach the proceedings and then the absolutely idiotic things the jurors said afterwards.

On 'Anus' in the morning the black gal from LA said it best.

"If you think that a bunch of black women are going to convict a black man because he beat a white women, your CRAZY!"

She was a regular after she said that on the air.

Circus is too tame a word for that fiasco!

I agree that the proceeding were a circus but I fail to see how it can be blamed on the Liberals. I think the blame can be place squarely on the bumbling Prosecution's case and the LA PD. The only way he could have been found guilty after that trial was if he had a jury of White Men wearing White Sheets. To me it seemed to be a case of the Prosecution snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

Read Vincent Bugliosi's book on this case and you will see that Red hit the bullseye with the above.

I remember that day clearly. I was back in High school, I went to a predominately upper class public High School, mostly Indians, Chinese, and Anglos. A few blacks and some Hispanics that were ususally bused in from neighboring areas due to Texas' Robin Hood program or whatever.

Anyways, the teacher in our class put on the radio, and 2 minutes after the verdict was delivered, I heard cheers, shouting, and cries of joy from the African American population outside in the hallways. The few amount of black students we had at our school were all cheering like their team had won a basketball or football came. Simply pathetic.

I don't see how certain segments of society still say there is a racial divide in this country, and then, on the other hand, support defendants and their lawyers who blatantly misuse the race issue. Johny Cochran really dealt the race card on this, when race had nothing to do with it. Our justice system backed down in fear, from the threats of a return to the riots that were in L.A. in 1993. Simply pathetic.

What bothers me the most is that most black people i know, didn't even CARE to look at the facts. I mean, the guy's clothes were soaked with blood, the same blood was found on the door of his vehicle (btw, many American Muslims are the same way when it comes to 9/11. They blame it on the Jews). Just because Furman said some racist comments doesn't mean he's racist. We've all said racist shiet before, blacks say it all the time on their little HBO Def Comedy jam. They are constantly ridiculing Anglos, Asians, and Hispanics. It's okay then? But then when a non black says "Whats up awesome dude?" because it has become a part of his lingo because he listens to rap music, he gets dirty looks all of a sudden. If people really want to end the racial divide, they have to stop being so hypersensitive and making a big issue out of little things. I remember when I was in elementary school, I was like 9 years old. We were talking about charities in class. I remember watching that commerical for the United Negro Fund, and mentioned that charity. All of a sudden, some black 9 year old momma gets on my ass and said "scuze me? Nuh uh.. no you didn't boy." And i was like, what? And she got on my case for using the word Negro. Heck, my dad used to use it all the time as he did the word "coloreds" but he's not racist. Its just that old fashioned mentality (he immigrated to the states in the early 60s). The other day, I was at the voting booth, and some black women came 2 minutes late. The man closed the door on them at 7 p.m. They started BANGING the glass doors and said, "Boy you betta open this fckin door up now boy. You'll be sorry if you dont you stupid Fck." The guy (Anglo) is much older to them, they need to show some respect I thought (b/c of his age).. but anyways, he apologizes, lets them in, and they don't say anything, give him a dirty look, and walk right past him. Guess what? One of those ladies daughters was with her. I can't believe she would cuss right in front of her daughter and act in such an uncivilized manner just because SHE WAS LATE, even though the guy finally let them in. And this was a wealthy area, where the blacks are wealthy. Is this what they want to teach their kids? Sorry for the rant but everytime someone reminds me of the OJ trial, i get pissed off.

Well White Racist need to be shunned as do Black Racist. It's not Ok for Whites to be racist because there are Blacks who are racist. The most flagrant form of Black Racism is when they label all Whites as racists. Of course one of the things White Racists do is constantly say that there are more Black Racists than White Racists. Maybe there is a higher percentage of Blacks who are racists (I do'nt no of any statistics that would back that up) but by sheer numbers and as evident here at ATOT, there are more whites who are racist.

The reason why the White racist are more noticable or at least condemn more is because they actually are detested fervently by the majority which happens to be white. It's because the whites make a bigger deal out of white Racism than they do out of Black, Asian or Hispanics who are racist. Are you dissapointed that White Racist are rightfully criticized by the Majority of Whites. Do you think we should cut them some slack?

Minority Racists are a small threat to most of us. They don't prevent us from being gainfully employed, they don't prevent us from aquiring a place to live and for the most part they are just some voices and pictures we see and hear on TV. They are much less of a threat to America than White Racists who are a major threat.

Hmm... Sorry to have offended your senses with my poor grammatical skills. Maybe if you would pull your head out of your pompous ass and give what I posted another try without being so anal about my typing and grammatical errors you might see my train of thought.

Wouldn't it be nice if I had your grammatical skills and you had my deductive ability to see things for what they really are?

Red, I agree that racism is prevalent in both camps. I don't agree with you saying racism from blacks is less harmful. Your post started sounding like a poster child for affirmative action(which is pure crap and you know it). If you don't think both sides are equally hurt then I ask you to consider a few things. The LA riots, Cleveland riots, etc. Now you must also consider the KKK, the Civil Rights protestors getting attacked,etc. Both sides are just as guilty and until both sides give up a lot of things, we will not have harmony. I just can't understand why Jessie Jackson and Sharpton still have so many supporters, when the only way they make money is to stir up trouble and throw allegations of racism in every case they can. White leaders are kowtowing or contributing to Sharpton and Jackson because they don't want their companys or their politcal parties to be labeled racist.

This is the part that started sounding like you advocate affirmative action:

"Minority Racists are a small threat to most of us. They don't prevent us from being gainfully employed, they don't prevent us from aquiring a place to live and for the most part they are just some voices and pictures we see and hear on TV. They are much less of a threat to America than White Racists who are a major threat."

Other than that part I agree completely with your post.

Still don't see the correlation betwenn my post and affirmative action and I still stand by that statement. If more Minorities were in a position of power (In the Government, CEO's of Companies,etc..) then racism on their parts would be more of a threat to the majority of us. I never intended to portray racism on their parts as acceptable and I also did mention that Minorities using the Race Card is just another form of racism, probably the most blatant form they use.

As John John so anally pointed out, my grammatical skills suck so if I led you to believe that Racism by the Minorities was acceptable then I apologize.
