I'd bet neither of you are black...Neither of you have a clue, as to what it's like to be black, and you never will...

You should both refrain from saying things that you have NO idea what they mean, and what they may mean to someone else...You saying a white person is being discriminated against is about as far fetched as us having a black president...

It isn't discrimination, when people hire people based on what they can identify with...If you are a middle aged white male, and grew up in a suburbian area, you are more likely to hire someone your same age and of the same background...And since the average business or corporation is ran by middle aged white men, how do you expect minorities to get ahead..? Whites are the majority by far in this country, non sub ethnic groups included...

Also, are you aware that Afro Americans are the only race that hasn't recieved some sort of reparation for widespread nation wide abuse and oppression of a race..? Do you find fault with the Native American being able to go to any major university free of charge..? What is the difference between the way native americans were treated and the way blacks were treated..?

I hate when people speak like they haven't ever picked up a history book...Slavery lasted 400 years...There was no 40 acres and a mule...This country was built upon the backs of my ancestors, and they were hung and whipped, raped and murdered, yet it is easy for you to forget faces like young Emmit Till...Black men hung, and burned alive while women and children stood laughing and smiling...

I don't expect you to know what that's like...Don't just assume that every time someone plays a race card, they are exaggerating...yYou can't look at society, and tell me that white don't have an advantage...It has NOTHING to do with racism...But if you think racism is dead...Shit, you got that all wrong...Even though slavery has been outlawed by the federal gov't since the 1800's, the state I live in just abolished slavery from the state law, it BARELY PASSED, by a 3-2 vote...This was in the 1990's...

And about that thug life and all that...Please don't EVER say that in a public forum again, you have NO idea what it says for your character to make such a brass assumption...
