    I'm still at a loss on how a member of the most self-righteous ethnic group on earth can call other people self-righteous. After all, I don't even believe that I'm one of god's chosen people.

    North Carolina will be a fantastic place when evolution there starts to catch up with the rest of the world.

    Well I just want to ask you, was the Civil Rights movement simply a movement to "get back at the white man" or was it a movement to make all men equal?

    If all men are now equal (or more so than they have been at any time in the past) then why are certain people punished severely for racist statements and others are just ignored or people let it slide......that is the main point it's not about "Poor poor helpless white people" it's about being equal.

    North Carolina has probably the best centers for higher learning in the South and maybe even America as a whole.


    But don't let my explinations and views keep you from your pompasity in your response

    The south has always had issues with the civil rights movement.

    Southerners will tell you that while whites and blacks can share the same drinking fountain in the south now, it was a dastardly act for the gummint to force all those good southerners to do what they'd never done before but would have been delighted to do, of their own free will, at some point. It's just a shame that the mean ol' gummint made them do it, thus muddying the issue. This southern line of reasoning extends to everything from the minimum wage to the Clean Water Act to the attempt to pass the Equal Rights Amendment. By forcing them to do the obvious right thing, gummint was leaning on the common people, and it wasn't fair. Heck, the worst thing about it was the suggestion that they had to be forced, by law, to do the obvious decent thing. It was true they'd never done it before, but they had been planning to get around to it, and probably would have done it five minutes after the law had been passed, if gummint hadn't gone and gotten its panties in a bunch. Now all they could do was bitch till the end of their days about the injustice of being forced to not lynch nigras when there was nothing good on TV and not pay their employees in shiny beads. Not that they'd have ever done those things anyway, but oh, the injustice of being told that they couldn't do it!

    It's true that there are lots of racist crackers like Rush Limbaugh and Michael Savage who make endless racist remarks but they're never sacked or bothered about them, because the vast majority of their remarks go completely unnoticed. So it's unfair to bother one boxer over one comment when endless comments by commentators and pundits with national audiences go unnoticed all the time.

    Some OLD people don't like Civil Rights but most any rational person doesn't have an issue with race, especially not to the extent there has been before. We have come a LONG way.

    You apparently either don't understand the history or misunderstand the history of racism in the South or in America in general....you do realize that America was the only nation to have slavery as one of the issues that spurred on the Civil War.....that war created resentment and Reconstruction laid the roots for the KKK and other vigilanty racist organizations. Meanwhile other nations just bought the slaves and set them free....therefore little to no resentment and no casualties resulted from those ends to slavery.

    What have Rush and Michael Savage said that is racist?


    I do expect this to be worse than what Imus said which wasn't really racist and could barely pass for sexist......but Al Sharpton got in that spotlight, he does love the spotlight so.


    And aren't you familiar with "Two wrongs don't make a right"....either it's wrong to say or it isn't wrong to say but that has to be the rule for EVERYONE......i'll be damned if you'd use the N word down here, North Carolina is extremely progressive in the larger cities, I can't speak much for the small towns but for the most part this state #1 never wanted to get in the Civil War to begin with and #2 slave labor wasn't a big part of the state's economy and we never developed the slave owning aristocracy that ran Virginia and South Carolina....and we are considered a Valley of Humility between Two Mountains of Conceit (those mountains being VA and SC)

    There is still a vast amount of racism in the south, something still reflected in the politics of the region. John McCain lost the (North or South) Carolina 2000 primary because a Bush telephone push poll accused him incorrectly of fathering a black baby. Those GOP politics guys like karl Rove certainly know their market.

    And GOP racism to appeal to their southern base continues today. In 1980, while running for president, Ronald Reagan, appeared at the Neshoba County Fair in Philadelphia, Mississippi, best known as the site of the murders of three civil rights workers by various pillars of the community. There, he gave a speech about the need for states' rights, time-honored code in that part of the country for white racists' resentment over forced desegregation. The scene was generally taken as an unusually blunt reaching out by a major candidate to the bigot vote, and not long after, Reagan did indeed receive the KKK's official endorsement for the presidency. But the appearance in Philadelphia, while unmistakable in the signals it gave off, was still safely within the realm of the "symbolic", and it's bad form to blame someone for his tackier fans, so nobody in the mainstream dared whisper that Reagan himself actually had a racist bone in his body, not even after he expressed his opposition to the creation of a holiday honoring Martin Luther King, Jr., and in the course of that opposition indicated that he mainly considered Dr. King to have been an uppity troublemaker and very likely a Communist agent. When it was time for Reagan to move on into his twilight years, his vice-president, George Bush the Elder, overcame his essential emptiness and lack of any serious widespread support in part by means of a TV commercial that tied his opponent to a scary-looking black man. Of course, everyone understood that Bush had no racist impulses in him but had to do what he had to do to ensure the votes of Joe Caveman. Back in 1964, Bush had campaigned hard against the 1964 Civil Rights Act; two years into his presidency, he would veto the 1990 Civil Rights Act, after having Congresional Republicans work hard shaping it to his preferred specifications. After considerable criticism, he would reluctantly sign a civil rights bill the next year, at a point when his prospects for re-election were already in free fall. Early in 1992, after the Rodney King verdict resulted in the L.A. riots, Bush would dispatch Marlin Fitzwater to explain that the riots were Lyndon Johnson's fault, and the the result of having been too nice to inner city blacks in the 1960s.

    Again, as anyone in the liberal media could tell you, none of this reflected any racial insensitivity on the part of the people involved. It was "just politics", and that meant anything that worked was fair and justifiable. On the other hand, during the same period as Bush's presidency, David Duke got himself elected to the Louisiana legislature and then set his sights on the governor's mansion, and this, everyone agreed, was a crisis. No one was more upset about it than Republicans like Bush, who feared that Duke might be taken as representative of a part of the Republican party and give it a bad name. Duke didn't stagger around calling people "niggers" and calling for a return to slavery. He talked about rising crime rates and too much money going to welfare families and a society gone to hell in a handbasket because of excess tolerance of the wrong sort and government sticking its nose in where it didn't belong and making things hard for Mister and Missus Lily-White.

    In other words, he talked like Ronald Reagan and like a hundred other Republicans who had learned to speak in code to white bigots who felt that some measure of their freedom had been curtailed because black kids could sit next to their kids on the bus. The problem was, Duke had been a self-proclaimed Nazi and Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan. If Duke had appeared out of nowhere in 1989 with no paper trail and no photos of him wearing stastikas and prancing around his college campus toting a sign reading "GAS THE CHICAGO 7", there would have been no reason for the media or his fellow Republicans to object to the obvious racist strain in his positions and statements; it would have been as okay as it had been with Reagan and Bush, because it would have been "just politics." But Duke's past made it uncomfortably likely that he wasn't simply pandering to open-mouthed hillbilly bigots. Everyone agreed that he had no place in American politics, because he meant what he said.

    Rush Limbaugh called jesse Jackson a chocolate chip cookie. He told aa African-American caller to take the bone out of his nose. Just google him, he's made endless racist comments throughout his career. Are you seriously claiming he hasn't made racist comments?

    You can ignore national commentators with audiences of millions yet one comment by a boxer and this is more evidence to you that you're an oppressed ethnic group. No the wonder America is so fucked up.

    McCain lost SOUTH CAROLINA(it's a very important difference)due to the W push polling. And there was the first clue that Karl Rove is evil. McCain does have an adopted child from Bangladesh which one has to assume is who they made the statement about....and that was really heartless.

    The party names don't mean anything they racists switch sides no matter what....what was a Southern Democrat is now a Republican and that brought baggage along with it but the issues that were important to the southern people were never specifically race or segregation until the Civil Rights Act was passed by Johnson.

    There is just as much racism in the North as there is in the South...and I stick by that, there always has been it's just different types.

    As for Duke, yeah he's 1 KKK member of the Republican party, just trust me when I say historically there are tons more Democrat racists.


    I can see some issue with the "bone out of the nose" comment but chocolate chip cookie I don't get that one.....he's definently pushed the envelope but I figured you were going to use the "Barack the magic negro" as your example, when it was originally a story done by a guy at the LA Times and Rush just made fun of it....I'm not a fan of his, especially recently with his opposition to John McCain and Mike Huckabee.

    I try to pay close attention to everyone when they say racist things...usually it's just a fit of frustration that would make people say racist things but it's not the case with Hopkins....I just wanted it made clear that I don't agree with Hopkins' comment and if people don't voice their opinions about it in a rational reasonable manner then everyone will think it's ok.

    And also a sense of humor isn't a bad thing to have when it's not as serious as some other issues....like the Duke Lacrosse case or in an even worse case of North Carolina history the Darryl Hunt case.


    Racism and these kinds of issues don't get better when you go tit for tat these issues get better when you work together to achieve a common goal.....the problem is finding the common goal

    Yeah, I forgot about the huge difference between North and South Carolinans. God knows what their Wal Mart queues look like.

    And you were convinced in the third post of this thread that white people were oppressed because of something Bernard Hopkins said.

    We both know who the basement-dweller is, don't we ?

    After you ran away yesterday after admitting you were gay I thought you'd mind your own business for a while.
