When race is part of a conversation, why is that labeled racism? Also recognizing and dealing with problems within our society cannot be acomplished if we create an umbrella of silence because of race.

My family (Cousins included) is European, Mexican and American Indian.

The major problems in our society are because we do not deal with them for fear of the racism label. Here in Montana the Indians are the major crime problem specifically because they will not be dealt with as normal citizens but are treated with kid gloves because of that race. Some of these criminals are relatives of mine and most were raised on the government handouts. This is the true home of racism in our society.

“Racism” is considering ancestry to be relevant to a topic when it isn’t. It doesn’t matter whether families are of “European” or “non-European” background. We’re all born by the same natural process!

What matters is marriage, education, discipline, work, morals, etc.
