Some people defend the kids who hung nooses from a tree saying that this act was not illegal. Though it may not have technically been illegal, it could still be considered a threat to kill. Maybe six black guys jumping onto a white guy could also be considered not technically illegal. It happens in football all the time. The problem was not the hanging of a rope, but the threat it posed. Just the same the jumping was not a game; it was a violent attack.

So for those who defend the hanging of the nooses as technically not illegal, let's see if you can list some things that blacks have done that may seem racist but were not technically illegal. The first example that comes to mind for me is Kanye West's claim that George Bush doesn't care about black people. It was a racist comment but not illegal.

After considering the many acts of racism on both sides, explain how any of these benefited society rather than tore us apart.

I have a friend who could possibly pass as a latin person. My friend speaks spanish, but she is african american. When we go out to latin places I believe that she wants people to believe she's not black. Me myself could pass for cuban/dominican/puertorican and any other island culture, but I am very honest about my race. Should I ask her why is she that way or just accept it and move on?

There must something more stimulating, invigorating, and tantalizing subject matters to talk about other than taking geritol, metamucil and ben-gay. By the way I'm already drawing SS Checks.

I am Hispanic and the father of my child is black. She looks more like her father than she does me. I often get mistaken as her nanny, and I get lots of stares (mostly from the hispanic community) It used to bother me before but I'm used to it now. I would just like to know if your a bi-racial child was it hard growning up for you? I would like to know what my daughter is in store for as she grows up and be prepared somewhat for her. She is 3 years old right now. I was brought up that their is one race which is the Human race, but i know many people have their own opionions. I just want to be prepared for my daughter.

the second anyone does the same against them, the cries of injustice come winging out? Anyone?
I'm referring mainly to the bullsh!t attitude that people who are bi are more likely to be unfaithful, are 'confused', can't make up their minds, are selfish, etc. Society has FINALLY gotten over the attitude that gay people are promiscuous drug-using freaks (well, the right-wing religious nuts still think gay people are like that, but who really cares what they think?), so why is there this bias against biosexuals in the gay community? Personally, I think it's jealousy and sour grapes. Some of us are attracted to PEOPLE, not a penis or vagina.
So why the fear and mistrust?
