i was just reading an article in my local newspaper about how our main college wants to add more diveristy to the school by recruting at least a hundred black students, one way they will be choosing applicants is accepting SAT scores that are less then required, now my area is pretty much 50/50 white and black, i don't think this is fair, the school must be getting or looking for money, what do you all think?

What kind of ridiculous question is that? I've heard and read so many people asking and answering that question, and it's kind of racist, no? is it just me? Doesn't it depend on what environment you were exposed to? I read how this one white guy was saying that only white girls are pretty and said the other races were far behind, I kind of got annoyed at that. Doesn't everyone have their own definition of beauty? Why should people insult people of other races just because they have a preference? And I get annoyed when people date people of other races because they find them exotic, which I find to be degrading, it's like pointing out that they're different than you because of the race but really they're still a person, like, it's just not something you're used to... what do you think?

There is a person I work with who is studing to be a Minister/Paster and yet is really mean and grumpy. I want to know why this person would choose to be that way when she is persuing a career that is quite the opposite.

well i never really was racist ive got loadz of black friends and so on..
but the other day i was standin waiting for a bus wiv my best m8.. wen suddenly from behind me was this lil chubby black boy he came from behind me and said."wat the **** u gion to do about it" so i replied wat ya on bout n he said go back to vanilla land black people own this country.. we own you white vanilla people.. he was about 12 years old.. ive come across many things like this before but this one really made me angrey...
because the fact is this is our country but we are bein manipulated by the blacks in here... i strongly agree with alot of white people that we should make this country white again!!!!!
i think its fair that everyone is equal no matter wat colour they r but balcks and other religions are goin against this idea.

am i wrong for thinkin in such a bad way... even though that boy and many others are wrong..

dont let them take other this country

If a Black person calls another Black person a Ni---r it is ok. But if any other race calls a black person a Ni---r suddenly it becomes a problem? Why Why?
And why is it ok for ANY race (even blacks) to use words such as "Honkey, ****, chinks, and much more)
Notice How I had to not say the N word because of the Yahoo filter here. But all the rest (honkey, ****, chink) where not filtered out.... Why is that?

Really, all the doctors and wealthy people most likely made excellent grades in school. Personally, I am attracted to people who care about their future, and better themselves in school. What's the deal? Are guys just scared of us because they think we're smarter?

I never say isn't about anything about me. I say I don't see myself as! For instance I say I don't see myself as gay, or queer, or ?! That's not an isn't to me. I refuse to limit myself. Sure I have no intentions of going gay or queer but I won't say never or isn't about it! What is ment by He says He isn't? I don't have a clue.. I can guess but I really don't know? As I said I never say isn't about anything about me.. I don't want to limit myself and I won't say is either!

I haven't been everywhere so i don't know, i bet everybody who says things like that haven't either, i mean we'r enot the best for

- GDP per capita
- Quality of life
- Leadership (our president stinks)
- Obesity rates
- Crime
- Poverty

There are many countries that are amazing like ours, they have good freedom and so on. I love this country very much more than anything but i can't be say if we are the best, we are the most powerful though, like that helps.

Do they not understand why they are calling us this. It seems they just call us it because they think it is an insult. Whereas noone really knows why. I know for fact that when they call us pommies, it doesn't offend me. Because noone knows why they do it. Well i do now. But does anyone else?

Oldham, Burnley and Bradford are in a state of flux and a little too complicated for the simplifying minds of most journalists, politicians and traditional "community leaders", all of whom are as responsible as the evil racist extremists for the chaos we now find in these areas. I am referring both to internal and external chaos, and the ways in which both affect the brown and white inhabitants who are too readily aroused.

Many of the young Muslim men do not know who they are. Abused as "Pakis" all their lives, their parents and others have driven them to embrace a Pakistani identity that is a negation of their Britishness. Many in the older generation tell me that the youngsters are "too British, too much full of rights ... Bloody fools ... In Pakistan the police would kill them on sight."

If you talk to white locals, the same confusions about identity and self-esteem emerge. They hate it that their Brontë-land has become a Balti-land, even though most of them have never even watched a televised version of Jane Eyre and could not survive a week without a curry.

Any (reasonable & within TOS) comments?

I really, really hate hippies. They have ruined our counrty and threatened our way of life. However, I would like to know if anyone hates them as much as I do.

Give me an example of how much you hate hippies, and some good reasons to hate them. I used to know the link to a hippy-hating website, but I lost it. Anyone know where it might be?
