Do you think people really comprehend what they read? I posted "Pulling the race card or does racism still exist? Do you think racism still exist?

I qualified the question by saying " I just read where a young lady said "Black people want to be superior" based on that statement I asked the above question.

One of the replies was " wow. you are a perfect example of a form of racism - why are you trying to eneralize entire groups of ppl...very ignorant..and you're extremely naive if you think racism doesnt exist honey...get educated fast. "

I do not think she read or comprehended the question as I made no generalizations of any kind. I never was inclusive of any group saying all black people or all asian people, etc. Yet I was called a racist the funny thing is I am a minority person of color. One young lady said I must not be a minority.

NEW QUESTION. Has skimming rather than reading and drawing inferences rather than comprehending become the new trend?

..I don't hesitate in using it be it male or female - whenever I see dark-skinned immigrants (mostly illegals) it's like "go home" you "...."

..well it's within my First Amendment rights as long as I mean it in a non-threatening way?

How many of you have used this term previously. If not, you're a wooly liberal for sure.

You’re in the grocery store and see a husband and wife walking down an isle. They appear to have two children, a young girl and a young boy. The boy is obviously handicapped and in a wheelchair, but he seems happy. Behind them, is another family, a woman and her little girl. Being a good Christian, you look around you, and decide to approach one of the families and ask to pray for them. Be honest, who would you choose?

When I see some of the outpourings on Y/A I get the impression that a great number of Americans regard themselves as fundamentaly superior to the citizens of say Iran or Iraq. They seem to feel that these people are part of an homogenised entity that is dedicated to hatred and evil and as such worthy of attack. What is it in the American Psyche that
creates an attitude that is so clearly at odds with logic and common sense?

well im black and my neighborhood and friends are extremely diverse. i hang out with ppl from pretty much every race and several cultures. i love it. however ive gone to private schools my entire life which i love...but they tend to be predominantly white. so im 17...mostly white school etc...

one time in class like 5 different girls said that they didnt like asians for such and such reasons. one girl blatantly said "i hate them because they cant drive..." and she basically said she aviods them..of course i told her straight out she was racist and it says something about how her parents raised her.

my friend chels once told me she thought asians were unattractive. i guess i could relate because even though im blk ive never been into blk guys -preference but still based on race.one b4 she said "hispanics are dirty"..ive heard like 10 of my classmates say that b4 and i always have to defend myself like wtf? you're ignorant 4 rtying to generalize an entire race. thoughts?

Yet American spell english words wrong.
Example COLOR instead of COLOUR.
Look I am not claiming to be an English expert because I am South African and engilsh is one of our 11 official languages anyway, if you are going to correct someone then you have to be doing it right yourself.

Racism isa bad thing. Can racism be negative and postive eg whites are better than blacks. Positive to whites negative to blacks. Can racism be justified? What if you be-little your own people? Is that alright.

Do you think racism still exist?
Admitedly I think race is used as a cop out for all lot of things and when it is appropriate people are skeptical but do you really believe that all things are equal for people of color in America? I just read where a young lady said "Black people want to be superior" I do not believe that. Just look to the messages society send about latinos, blacks and asians for proof. How someone who is non white develops a superiority complex in that context is amazing. I think black people have poor leadership picked by the media like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson they are opportunist and this is maginified because of race and there loud opportunist come in all shades. Blacks do not pick battles well and choose to focus on nonsense instead of real issues some latino groups to more black. I think minorities are marginalized esp. latinos, blacks and asians. Native Americans are completely over looked (my opinion). WHY? DO YOU REALLY BELIEVE RACE IS NOT A FACTOR
