Other - Cultures & Groups - October 2006

Please note that I don't ask this question because I'm a racist. My adopted daughter are happily married to a wonderful black man and they have a six year old daugther who is half black half white. Problem is this child doesn't fit in anywhere. The beginning of this year she was first put in a predominantly white school, where she was kind of rejected by the white kids. Then they put her in a black school where the black children didn't want to play with her because she was not black enough. This had made me wonder if integration was really such a good thing. What do you think?

Are the "blacks" and "hispanics" the only races that have history in this country?
Also....Why do we as a "Melting Pot" nation alow for a "U.N.C.F., ("United ***** College Fund")". Where is the "United Caucasion College Fund"?
Why do we call the "black" population in America, "African American" when most of the "black" population in America have never been to Africa? Arent they just "Americans" like the rest of us?
Why is the "National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) " not considered a racist organization, yet the "National Assoication for the Advancement of White People (NAAWP)" is?
Isn't that "RACIST"?
I my self am "Irish/Dutch", yet I don't require the rest of "America" to call me "Irish/Dutch/American". I am "American", as I have never been to Ireland or Hollandand, and was born in "AMERICA".
When did it become a bad thing to be just an "AMERICAN"?
WAKE UP WORLD. We only have ONE planet to live on, and in GODS eyes we are all EQUAL.

I have never been around a racist person but I did hear a couple of people say that they have been discriminated by the color of their skin.

I read a question that was insulting to blacks, then another about Mexicans & another about gays. I guess people can be idiots if they want but to spread hatred is wrong. Do you think it would be justice if someone who hates blacks was locked in a small room with 50 black people while he spouted off remarks. The same thing with gays & Mexicans or any group whos hated. Don't you think after an experience like that they would learn to keep their mouths shut. Personally if I got by *** kicked for my ignorance I would surely never open my mouth again. Does anyone think this would stop the hate because nothing else is working.

I asked what is a chav and got some fab answers (thanks to all) now I want to know what a Goth is and more importantly, if you are one, what makes you choose to wear those types of clothes? I am not picking on you, just want some answers as my son has become one. I think he looks better in white T-shirts but then he said he isn't dressing like a chav ;)

I have seem allot of questions that are mostly whining about the question or answer being pulled... Do these people not know the rules. Have they not read the TOS.
I do NOT report things because I am mean, vindictive or any of the other nonsense they claim. I only report the things that turn my stomach and make me need a barf bag...the guilty know what vile junk they post and they are just baiting the censor so why do they pretend to be the victim in this.
Are they really so immature and selfish.? Do they think they are above the rules.? Do they really not get how deeply offensive they are?
whenever they post an example of what was pulled it is obvious what they did.... I do not understand why anyone would be so blatently rude, selfindulgent and inconsiderate...

I'm sure there are stupid people everywhere....but it seems like from sea to shining sea our shores our awash with ignorant American slobs.
Why is this?
Inbreeding? Christianity? The Fox news network?
Any thoughts?

Jews hate Muslims, Muslims hate Christians - I'm generalizing of course... But i think we should all be free to live our lives with what we each believe, as long as it doesn't hurt other people. So why do extreemist is all religions hurt other people because its what they believe? If everyone just let everyone alone we would not need to try and proove which religion/race/country is the best or is right. Everyone has the right to exist in peace.... So why can we not just get along?????

When misguided children come to your door with 'trick or treat'?
Tell them 'this is NOT America'.
