People get what they were raised to get. My parents didnt raise me tohate another race of people. sorry. I NEVER said racism didnt exist/
You quoted examples from 50 years ago. The world was a much different place.

Again, NEVER said racism didnt exist. I have been around the world and have seen many many things. My life wasnt limited to the USA in a small town watching CNN . So, my view is lot more open minded than most.

Eddie Murphy used to fress up like a white man on SNL and walk around behaving a certain way. So wat does that make him? The Wayans Brothers recently made a movie called "white chicks" wher ethey dressed up like white girls. What does that make them?

People do stupid things of course. No one is perfect. But to automatically assume the reason for the stupid behaivor is because of hate (thats what racism is, hate) is rediclous.

Sorry, I dont tote the standard African AMerican line that everytime a white person does something to or against a black person,its because of racism. Sometimes its just becasue they are stupid.

There are real cases of racism out there, but if EVRYTIME a white person does something agaunst a black te start shouting racsim we wil ot be taken seriously People will begin to say "Well, there they go again" And when something that is truly racist happenes we wont be taken seriously.

An example her ein Atlanta a few years ago: Two puk white guys beat up a black guy. OK, the firsat thing the NAACP did was get on TV and scream rasicm. Now did the whites kids beat up the black guys because they wee black or did they beat up the black kids because the opportunity was there and had it been two white guys the white kids would have beat them up as well. We assume it was because they were black cause thats easy to do. Sometimes I just dont like aperson not because of their color but just cause I dont like them.
