My gosh...

This should be simple:

"All white people are racists." End of class.

EVERYONE knows it!

It seems that "white guilt" has run amok amongst PC whites while black sensitivity to virtually everything is out of control. Not a good combination for any sort of reconcilliation between the races. The day everyone starts dealing with everyone else as an individual rather than a race, a culture or a people group will be a great day indeed. Message to whites; quit trying to be something you're not (stop trying to be a PC change agent), message to blacks; surprise! get out of the victim mentality and excel!, just like virtually every other immigrant (and no they did not all come here of their own volition) group has. In case you hadn't noticed, "diversity" is nothing but thinly veiled racism. A ploy by the PCers to obtain "special rights" at the expense of other groups. The concept is that "all people are created equal" READ IT PEOPLE!!! It doesn't say people groups, races, or cultures, it says people! Individuals! Quit looking for special treatment, take charge of yourself, take responsibility for your own actions and quit being so sensitive!

Officials in Eugene should don wigger wear to show that they're sensitive.

Why don't they just hold the Trials in East Saint Louis and give the white out-of-town visitors bullet-proof vests? Seriously, if the Trials were held in a predominantly black town there would not be any "sensitivity training." Nobody would give a shit how white visitors were treated.

"Snowden said she also has concerns about black people being shadowed by clerks when they visit retail stores."

Well yes---they shoplift far more often than whites. DUH.

The state of Oregon is very white and racist--actually this is a good start in all honesty.

This was on the front page:

Supposed to tell black visitors about the "soul food" place.

Which is more racist, trying to treat everyone with respect and the best you can or some black guy coming up and asking for a restaurant and the clerk thinks he's now supposed to say: "There's a really good fried chicken place downtown."
