http://www.secondamendment.net/whatisracism.html[^] Quote From Article: Of all the races in America, only whites have been tricked into thinking that a preference for one's own kind is racism. Only whites are ever told that a love for their own people is somehow "hatred" of others. All healthy people prefer the company of their own kind, and it has nothing to do with hatred. All men love their families more than they love their neighbors, but this does not mean they hate their neighbors. Whites who love their racial family need bear no ill will towards non-whites. They wish only to be left alone to participate in the unfolding of their racial and cultural destinies. What whites in America are being asked to do is therefore utterly unnatural. They are being asked to devote themselves to the interests of other races and to ignore the interests of their own. This is like asking a man to forsake his own children and love the children of his neighbors, since to do otherwise would be "racist." What, then, is "racism?" It is considerably more than any dictionary is likely to say. It is any opposition by whites to official policies of racial preference for non-whites. It is any preference by whites for their own people and culture. It is any resistance by whites to the idea of becoming a minority people. It is any unwillingness to be pushed aside. It is, in short, any of the normal aspirations of peoplehood that have defined nations since the beginning of history--but only so long as the aspirations are those of whites.

It's ok to dis white, just not black in today's world. It's not the abolition of racism, but rather a socially acceptable strike back for the oppression of the black man and women of the past. As long it's ok to say lines in movies like "that little dumb white boy" but not "that little dumb black boy", racism still exists. And it will always exist until we see every other person has human and not black, white, olive or whatever. But, as human nature will suggest that will not happen on a larger scale until there's a greater threat to mankind, like an alien species. Only then will we unite, this is what history has taught me. In the US, it'll take a black man to help rid us of this I think. If a white does, it's always racism. That's one reason I like the Chapelle's show (if you've ever seen it). It's a black guy making fun of all the racist stupidity, and at this point in time only a black person would be allowed to do this. Jeremy Falcon

What's most ironic is that in countries like India, where people have skin color varying from really dark (as dark as an african american) to really light (can be mistaken for a white caucasian), there's this big demand for women who are lighter skinned. *shakes head* In newspaper ads (arranged marriages), parents of brides usually say something like "prospective grooms invites for white-skinned young beautiful girl of 23 years..." They say "white" skinned - sometimes "fair skinned" etc. And we had TV ads for cosmetic cream that's supposed to make girls get lighter color skin. The ad shows how a girl is rejected by a guy cause she is dark. Later she uses the cream, becomes lighter in color, and the guy is shown running after her. That was one helluva color-racist ad I would say - but no one complained :-) Regards, Nish

BTW, I wasn't complaining. I am happy that they double-check all brown skinned people. I mean, if I am gonna fly in that plane, I'd be happier to know they've reduced chances of some potential terrorist walking in with a bomb strapped to himself/herself. But sometimes it's a little annoying. Last MVP summit, there were some 10-12 of us awaiting to board the plane in Seattle. Me, and one other MVP (again Indian) were asked to pull out of the queue, we were taken to another room, they asked us a few basic questions like where we are going, finger printed us, and then let us board the plane. They were very polite, and almost apologetic that we didn't feel insulted or anything. But it was a little odd to go through that. Again, I understand why they do it. There are more brown skinned terrorists than there are white/black ones. So they are just being extra careful - which is good for all of us. Oh well! It's something I have got used to (and most other Indians and Pakistanis too I guess). Regards, Nish

I wonder why that is. I mean, over here I think it's due to our history and slavery, etc. all mixed into the loop. But oever there I would think it didn't matter.

I agree. But by and large, sight sensory is an important thing to most people, as long that remins I'm sure people will always rely on what they see to judge, and there's nothing more prominent than skin color.

Firstly, i am not the one who made that assertion, it was in the article, but i do think an example how be where it is considered racist by the liberals to be against illegal immigration from mexico, because they are a differnet race.

Also visit the Ultimate Toolbox blog (New)I was in India (Delhi) a few weeks ago and I need to say that the indian customs is also not very friendly to white people, or at least they even slow more down than usual which gives you bad times if you need to catch other flights etc... So counts this for racism too?

race preferences on college admissions.
For the record: I disagree with the practice of favoring minorities over more fully qualified caucasions when there is no evidence of prejudice otherwise taking place. This, I believe, is now largely the case--the US has come a long way in 40 years. However, in the not very distant past this was not the case, so institutions had to be forced to play fair. I believe the time of that has largely passed, but still needs to be watched. With that out of the way, this does not fit my requirement of an example of where whites have to "devote themselves to the interests of other races and to ignore the interests of their own." In cases where racial preference is given to minorities, or quotas are met, it is still the case that the majority of admissions, sometimes 80% or more, are given to whites. That is hardly ignoring the interests of the white race, if such a thing can even be said to exist. The population falls that way in most areas of this country, for one thing, but also there are still huge built in advantages to being born white in this country. As for bussing: I fail to see how that hurts anyone... it's a way for people with no options to get a better education due to the complete failure of funding for inner city schools. Is it the best way to fix the problem, and does it really help? Probably not, but it lets some politicians feel like they are doing something while failing to fix the real problem: lack of money in education. The Texas contract thing falls under the same category as college admissions: fair? No. Necessary at some time in the past? Probably. Time to move on? Yes. An example of keeping white man down? Absolutely not. White man is doing just fine. And by the way, no, I did not read the article (it is blocked from work). I thought the comments were from Pumpkin (or whoever the heck that is), though he has since edited it to make it clear he's quoting the article.
