You're actually getting angry? You think this is a heated debate...? Wait till N_A decides to come back. Then you'll see a heated argument. A person angry over a thread in a message board is just plain funny. Everything I say on this board is either completely factual or a joke, I take no responsibility for anyone who cant decipher the two.
This thread is pure and simple; just about everyone here is a contradicting moron. You’re all desperately trying to push your opinions when you don’t even know what they are because you're either young, or just inexperienced.
Look at this country right now, when a black man says something derogatory or anti towards a sensitive subject, everyone turns their head away and pretends they didn't hear it. We let it slide because of guilt. We all feel guilty for the way immigrants (which include the first blacks in this country from Africa) have been treated, but the truth is, we've actually been pretty tame when compared to any other country and their treatment of immigrants. Hell, during WW2 Britain marched Jewish immigrants right back in to Germany because the UK didn’t want to 'deal' with them. All we did was take slaves from Africa and made them slaves here.
But ever since the birth of America, people from all over the world want to come here where they can live free and get good pay (hahaha) so why didn't we give that to the African slaves? Because we liked getting our laundry done, having our businesses clean and having dinner served by 6 PM and still have enough free time to take the family out on the town. Now that blacks, Mexicans, Asians, etc are all considered free and equal, they're doing our laundry, making our dinners and cleaning our homes and businesses and getting paid for it. And America still feels guilty - We don’t understand why the majority of blacks live in poverty in bad areas of town, we don’t get it when we see Mexicans blowing leaves in someone else's driveway.
We feel like it's our fault, that we put them there. The truth is, they want to be there because they don’t want to adapt and they won’t teach their children to adapt, they want to be around people like themselves and pretend the other people don’t exist. It's the oldest and most powerful instinct. And now we live in a time where people are afraid to have an opinion unless it sounds good on paper or is politically correct. You can’t hate anyone now without being branded as an evil throwback to early western civilization. Bullshit; I will hate or like anyone I choose. It is a privilege to be respected, not a right; But people are so frightened of speaking up that we let it happen and watch it from the side lines, we even raise our children to be numb pacifists who ignore political conflict and take the easy way out.
This all leads to this thread right now: Political pacifists angry at themselves arguing over how other people should be treated and desperately trying to push their opinion on others in the hope that they’ll convert someone just to justify their own mental and moral dilemma. If you want to be a goody two shoes-I love everybody-black and white precursor to devout Christianity then by all means go for it, but do NOT try tell me that your opinion is more correct than mine.
