Bigger penis, higher bone density, and almost always the coolest person in any situation. :)

We can freely say the N-word and all its variations.

I don't know nuthin' 'bout affirmative action and haven't benefited from it. It someone tried giving me extra money or a better job just for being black I'd take it. Everyone gets some kind of hookup for a reason like friends, family, or simply the boss feeling more comfortable because you look like they do. I think affirmative action is crap but it's been in place for the majority a long time.

awesome post..which is what whites fail to realize and will never own up to because it destroys their arguments....affirmative action has always been around in America..it was only for whites.....yet whites get upset that blacks are given a fair shot for the last 40 years or so

I agree with your post...but I don't know what is more disturbing....you being ignored because your black or you actually meeting people from this site ;)

The people I met were really nice and I'd love to see most of them again.

Does anyone know anyone that the United Negro College Fund has ever helped?

I have not.

We had a good run but it's only a matter of time before the white man gets his turn.

We're still superior in every way imaginable, so enjoy it while it lasts.  Thankfully I'll be dead before anything horrible happens like having to hire white people to do my gardening.

I have not.

The Billionaire Annenbergs... the single biggest annual contributors to the fund. It has helped to ease their conscience. I guess after centuries of buying & selling them, they felt it was time to help educate them.

As if you're any better. How many unsuspecting old couples have you robbed through your pyramid schemes?

I don't involve myself with pyramid schemes, ...only legitimate network mktg or affiliate mktg ventures.
I have never robbed anyone.

Blacks don't get to discuss race without being whiny, whites don't get to discuss it without being racist. :)

You really have to wonder why we've let this happen.

But who's getting educated?!

I've NEVER met anyone who received anything from it.

Sorry, man.

Black guys get followed.

A few months ago I was at Best Buy with the kids and not one person tried waiting on us. I got annoyed and told the oldest girl "I bet someone will come to help us if I pick up a computer". Their computers are tethered but within 10 seconds of picking one up someone came over to help, despite being ignored with three kids the whole time.

At least 5 people on this site have personally met me. They'll say I don't dress ghetto and am generally what would be considered well-educated.

Things are what things are. That's not the first time I've been followed and it won't be the last. The important thing is to not let situations or some random assclown be empowered to determine what kind of day you're going to have. :)




Yeah, I guess I don't get it.  Been in Best Buy tons of times and nobody ever came up to offer me help.  On occasion someone will offer unsolicited help.

Does my white privilege only work during certain times of the day?

Can you see why this sounds absurd to me?

this is why you won't ever understand true racism......the fact of the matter is blacks who look like this DO suffer discrimination anyway......in housing, jobs, just getting a taxi....being stopped in stores.....look at Forrest Whitaker, a world famous actor being stopped on suspicion of shoplifting




I'm not saying racism is non-existent.  I'm questioning this supposed white privilege.

I'm sure at some point, some called you the 'N' word, and not in brotherly fashion.  I'm sure some ignorant prick judged you based solely on your skin color.  But how that translates into me being privileged?

I was at Micro Center to buy a computer a few weeks ago and couldn't get any help for 20 minutes.  I just needed someone to retrieve the one I wanted from the back room.


I'm white though, so I'm not sure what the problem was.

LOL I have to agree but just so you know my post wasnt directed at blacks...

It was meant for all people, I do find it funny though that it was the blacks that responded....

ha..you are so funny.....especially when you don't know what you are taking about.....name ONE black show on a major TV network.....its even worse for hispanics admittedly.....they are virtually non-existent in TV...

we focus on race as a topic..just as the Jews focus on their plight or on things related to the Holocaust....

Are you?

'+1', 'good post', and 'you're crazy' are hardly substantive.


How about you let you PIP and I know why it is that when we don't get service at the store, it's just bad service.  But if a black person doesn't get service at the store, we have white privilege?

LOL first what constitutes a black show?

whats the difference between focusing on race as a topic and simply focusing on race?
