Do the asians,hispanics and whites have a month too? What if there was a white heritage month? Would us whites ever hear the end of it? It'd be all over the news.

Why do some people from India not consider people that are from the West Indies to be Indian too? I was told the reason why so many Indians are from the west Indies is due to slavery a long time ago. Indians were brought to the Carribean but some East Indians dont consider it the same type of Indian? Why? Maybe its their lack of knowledge on history .

The muslims on the Dispatches program where evil. I know that not all UK muslims share the ideas and thoughts of those evil people, but this is clearly a problem. Does anyone know how widespread these extremist ideas are in muslim communities in the UK. This is a link to the evil mosque Contact form to send them your angry comments... http://www.greenlanemasjid.org/contactus...

I cant believe that people can get away with saying we should kill homosexuals, hit women, and wage a holy war against all non-Muslims.... I think this proves we have a huge problem in the UK... possibly caused by our tolerance and the fact that we have let Muslims into a country which had relatively no Muslims 20 years ago. Are there too many Muslims now in the UK? Do we believe the Muslims on the documentary that say they will wage jihad (war) on the UK at some point in the future? Scary stuff....!

I agree that there is evil in any religion... but this seems more widespread?

To deny it isnt true would be a lie. Is it because they relish the oppurtunity the US has to offer, instead of being spoiled by it?
Is it because their parents disipline them more and put more value on education?
Is it becasue they really don't care about rascim, and just go about their buisness?
Or is it becasue they are simply harder workers?

*disclaimer-im not saying this is always the case, but i think it is a majority of the time

...but if there was a *white* club we'd be shot at our first gathering? Why can there be a Latino Chamber of Commerce and a Afican American Chamber of Commerce but no White Chamber of Commerce?? Why is there black history month but no WHITE history month? How can they justify the United ***** College Fund without an equalling helpful one for whites? All of these things are a direct form of racism against whites. Yet we're supposed to just sit back and take it. Well, with today being what it is I wanted to ask this question of Yahoo Answers in hopes of finding some truly meaningful answers.

The saying says something like shame on you for the first time, and shame on me for the second time. Do you catch my drift? Not sure if it only applies to cheating, but It's like shame on you for the first time you do it, then shame on me when you do it again and i stick by. Something like that. It's driving me crazy since i can't figure it out.

I believe in ancient times incest was a regular practice in many cultures, especially among royals to keep the royal bloodline.
When did it become taboo, and for what reason?
Is there a proper scientific basis for our current attitude towards it?

My husband and I are in a debate about this. I say it is easier for guys to break into a new all guy social group than it is for women to do the same. Women like to feel eachother out first. He disagrees. Who is right?

But its like if I ask questions about gay people to help myself better understand whats going on and eventhough I think I'm askn the question in the most non disrespect way I still in up making someone mad. am I just fooling myself into believen that all people regaurdless of our differences can really be at a place where we except people for who they are and be able to ask questions without hurting anyone? Or are we just fooling ourselves thinking that thats possible?

president Bush is making headlines across the world about fighting terrorism, but we have terrorism in every town here in the USA. Why do law enforcement agencies allow this crap to continue? They have lists of known terrorists, as gang members and all they do is stand by and do nothing. When is someone with a plan going to start to do something about our own mess and leave the foreign countries to handle their own?
