House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) on Tuesday said racism is “present in all of our minds” and has gone on since Biblical times.

“Racism is present in every one of our communities, and as you pointed out Dr. [Maya] Wiley, present in all of our minds,” he said during a hearing before the House Democratic Steering and Policy Committee called by House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.). “We need to be conscious of that and confront it. That’s why I think this conversation is so important.” …

During Hoyer’s opening remarks, he said racism is inherent in America, and he doesn’t see an end to it. …

Maybe it is present in his mind, but not all. This is the thinking of an über-liberal.

Not racism, hoyer-— possibly bigotry (which is a choice of association). Liberals are true institutional racists— right down to abortionists who overwhelmingly kill more black babies than any other demographic. All of which they support in the “right to choose” to murder that they say is “inherent in women” and not the other parent. Dancing on a pin head, by a pinhead.

Steny Hoyer is one of biggest butt-smoochers and propagandists now serving in the US House of Representatives. This is frankly pandering to a minority that is DECLINING in electoral politics, as both the numbers and the diversity of the “Hispanic” bloc (which is neither monolithic nor concentrated) will soon eclipse the importance of the black electorate.

“A Conversation on Race and Justice in America,”
..........................................................

Who represented the white side in this conversation?

Was it covered at all?

Certainly Azz-kissing Steny did not represent the White side. I submit the Conversation was strictly one way. There was no white side presented. There never is.

This wasn’t a conversation about race it was just another whining cry from the Dark side about how awful we whites treat those poor downtrodden darker members of society like Oprah and Obama. poor blacks who have suffered discrimination.

Steny Hoyer makes me want to puke every time I see the Pelosi butt sucker.

Hoyer: ‘Racism Is Present in All of Our Minds’

----------

Well, if every person on the planet has racism in their minds then racism must be natural. Why then waste so much time and resources trying to eradicate something that's natural to all humans?

It is present in every HUMAN's mind.

It is an evolved defensive survival mechanism. In previous millennia, life was tough and those who did not fear/avoid members of other tribes ended up badly and didn't propagate their genes.

Libs love Darwinism, but are blind to the fact that survival of the fittest causes adaptive behavioral changes through evolution, in humans as well as other species.

It's still a jungle in the big cities, where hanging out near members of other tribes can get you killed.

Nice try, liberal dork.

Some of us really don’t think that way.

We are called conservatives.

You want racism?

Look to your president.

Actually I agree with him.

I will openly admit that I look at black people differently that I do white people.

Maybe it’s because you NEVER hear about gangs of white people going through a place beating random people up (Black gangs at Wisconsin state fair a few years back among many other instances) Or maybe it’s because you never hear about some white teenagers trying to pound some guy into the sidewalk just because he was watching them. Or maybe it’s because you never hear about a couple of white teens shooting a 5 month old baby in the face while they are trying to rob his mom. Or maybe it’s because blacks represent something like 17% of the population but commit 50% of the crime. Or maybe it’s because of the countless other evidences that most inner city blacks act more like animals instead of like humans.

When they start acting more civilized then we can start looking at them like we’d look at any other person. I also distrust dogs that I don’t know.

Why should I place myself or my family at risk by associating with blacks who have not been proven to be civilized to me (say by being good friends of people I know to be reliable).

I admit that I am racist. And it burns me to the core. Because up until a few years ago I never HAD to be racist. Most blacks were just people and the bad ones were easily located and identified. Now it seems that they are almost all bad. I know a bunch of good black folk in my town and in my past, and they suffer because their reputation is ruined by the thugs in the hiphop culture etc.
