A Black Falcon Wrote:Affirmative action isn't racism. As for the rest of those people, some are worse than others... and yes some black leaders do go too far. But when there's as long a history of discrimination against their people as there is against the blacks, they have some cause to be worried about the issue...
Which is exactly what I was saying about the left's thinking: It's okay for them to be racist. They have the right to be racist. It's okay for me to be discriminated against because other people who had roughly the same amount of melanin in their skin did the same thing long before I was even born. Those people aren't 'concerned' about the issue. Racism and segregation are perfectly simpatico with them, just so long as it's not them on the recieving end of it. And they are far more active, influential and virulent racists than any white conservative out there.
And any program that favors one person over another based on skin color is racist. That's what racism is, if you didn't know. That's what Dr. King died trying to end. His message was equality, not "some people are more equal than others".
