White is the majority race. We're not the "ruling" white people aren't getting together and scheming against all other races, most of us are just trying to live our lives. What do you propose to fix the problem? Kill X amount of white people? Import black people from Africa and asians from Asia? Because thats about the only way it's going to be solved.

Even today if you are black chances are, a white jury will find you guilty, whereas a white man may get away. Hell even in California, where everything seems so liberal, its still true.

So just because someone is white they are automatically unqualified to properly serve on a jury? Court cases aren't easily catagorized because they're all different, saying white people aren't good jurors, which you are blatantly argueing, is a racist comment which produces more racism.

And I personally think everyone using the argument that "so they can do it, why can't the whites" or "thats just being racist themselves" needs to think outside of themselves for a bit - if you were part of a minority where you knew the others hated you or had their biases, would you not seek companions in your own race?

Except you're not taking into account that the white children in the school might be in the minority. Is it magically ok then?

One day an Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman walked into a pub together. They each bought a pint of Guinness. Just as they were about to enjoy their creamy beverage, three flies landed in each of their pints. The Englishman pushed his beer away in disgust. The Scotsman fished the fly out of his beer and continued drinking it, as if nothing had happened. The Irishman, too, picked the fly out of his drink but then held it out over the beer and yelled "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!"
