So true.
Now racism is done with a rape and a murder.
If there has been civilization that has benefited from a mix of ethnic groups, I haven't come across it. Either one group is subservient to the other or there is constant civil strife and unrest.
A nation has an identity made from that of each person. When it loses that identity it does not survive, and much of the time, violently. If members of great groups identity themselves by their sole allegiance to their ethnic source obviously they don't identify as Americans.
It's true that America was built by immigrants, but those immigrants became Americans, willing to defend her and make their children fully American, and they had enough respect for her to apply for citizenship with all the hours study that made necessary. The big majority of the ones coming here now do not, and have no intention to.
The dominant motive now is greed and individual survival without regard to the well being of others. When any group with this kind of attitude gains political muscle, look to your own security.
I certainly hope you can "deal with" that, my dear. As a woman, if indeed you are a woman, your security rests in the stability of your nation.
I must protest the use of this word. It is offensive to others. Show compassion for the grieving families who lost a loved one when they hit a bump going 90. Not to speak of the motorcyclists killed by a bump in the road.
Consider that painful bump on the head and all those painful bumps from measles, mumps and chicken pox, with a special thought for Herpies Simplex numbers one and two.
Let's not forget the bump in the cream of wheat, mosquito bite, or in life's easy road. And don't be forgetful of that bump in the power when you're working on a 60K file you haven't saved yet, and that bump of calcium in the bladder.
Be sensitive and compassionate, and don't use "ping" either, for all the poor migraine suffers.
Aaarrgggh! I was ticked off for weeks after seeing "Mississippi Burning"! And I'm not even from Mississippi.
That was in 1996 that I saw that movie and I was so outraged that I still think of it from time to time.
And the rope-a-dope then becomes clear. Blacks force the 'Rats to go anti-hispanic - and they come streaming over, in their greater numbers, to the GOP. The rest of us can just keep paying taxes.(Full disclosure: I'm an off-white Eurasian).
True.
Did you ever see the board of Directors of the New York Times? All old white people (mostly men and the odd wife), except for one token black guy who is in charge of some kind of diversity issues or some such...
John F. Akers
Brenda Barnes
Raul E. Cesan
Jacqueline H. Dryfoos
Michael Golden
William E. Kennard
Russell E. Lewis
David E. Liddle
Ellen R. Marram
Thomas Middlehoff
Henry B. Schacht
Donald M. Stewart
Arthur O. Sulzberger Jr.
Cathy Sulzberger (Nepotism?)...
anyway, you get the picture. Lots of blue eyes and white skin for such a liberal group that espouses diversity.
Affirmative Action for thee, but not for me!!!
Where are the Hispanics? Where are the Mohammeds? Where are the really ethnic black people?
Plenty of Jewish liberals though.
If a black guy ever does get in, you can be sure he will be in charge of something insignificant like minority issues, and of course, he will be a VERY light skinned black person with blue eyes (contact lenses?). Wouldn't want to upset Catherine Sulzberger with a REALLY dark negro.
Short of building an impenetrable fence 10 feet high and 50 feet deep out of steel, concrete and briars, nothing will keep them out.
