You can start what ever group you want.

How long did, and does the confederate flag fly in the south? A FLAG!
From Government buildings!

I agree there is a double standard.
I have been bitching about rap for years.
A guy on a news show is not the same as Comedy Central. Comedy is for us to laugh about ourselves and events, and it's normally not done in a disrespectful manner, and if it is, DON"T watch it, but don't sit there and say everytime Jesse Jackson, or Al Sharpton speaks that they are speaking for everybody black in the country.
They are speaking for themselves and their agenda. Sometimes it benefits everybody, sometimes just some people, sometimes just themselves.

When I need to be heard, you will hear me, either with my dollar or my vote.
Stop grouping us under a bunch of media statements, that is where the problem is.
Do you think I think that Jeff Foxworthy is ALL white people?

When the NAACP started, we were not even considered equal citizens under the eyes of society and the law, and I expect if you are part of a race of people that has been treated like that for most of the history of your country, you may have a group or two just to make sure things are on the up and up.

The NAACP is not racists, it was created to stop racism!
Do you have nay relatives or ancestors that have been hung, or were slaves?

It has not been that long, and I still get pulled over from time to time, because, "I fit the description.." So don't sit back and act like people in this country are not treated unfairly.
You couldn't pay me to be Arab American right now.

Every minority has an organization that "looks out".

If you want to start "The Organization for the Advancement of White Guys", knock yourself out.
Nobody really cares.

You will stop having a problem when you stop thinking of all Black people as one big collective, and start recognizing that Blacks in this country are Americans first.
What did they used to call it when you judged a group of people based on preconceived notions? Oh yeah, prejudice!


I should have known when I said all white group you would have mentioned the Klan. I meant an all white group that is peaceful, not a bunch of crazy rednecks. Most white people do not like the Klan, they make us look bad. I think a major issue is that the people in the black community allow Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton speak for them. Both men are racist and like to cause trouble. When they are wrong they do not apologize, they just pretend it did not happen.

I do not have relatives that were hung. I do have a relative that was at work late at night. She was robbed at gunpoint by a black man who proceeded to beat her and then rape her more then once. She became pregnant from that rape and gave her daughter up for adoption. I did not see Jesse Jackson come to her house and apologize. I saw no white people cause a riot and set things on fire because she was attacked. Remember the LA riots? If it had been reversed and a white man had raped a black women, all hell would have broken loose from the black community. I call it as I see it. If that is racist then so be it. I am not racist at all. I am just a realist.
