Many racists live by these statements, yet it is proven the statements commit the fallacy of hasty generalization.

My question is: Is there any factual evidence that supports racist ideology that can be said about minorities across the board?

Where is this coming from. Whites make up over 80% of the population in the U.S. and even more in other countries.

Where's this propoganda coming from that has some whites up in arms. Relax.......

I see questions like
"Which race has contributed less to America?"
"Which race has the most people in prison?"
"Which race has the most people in welfare?"

And don't tell me that its because the US is only country with many different ethnic backgrounds.

Africans, Amerindians, Europeans and Asians have ALL assimilated in Latin America.

It really pisses me off. I mean come on, the Civil War was over a century ago. The Civil Rights Movement was allmost 50 years ago. It's time to move on. In today's society it's allmost uncool to be white. What is going on? Special programs, such as black or hispanic-only college funds, are instituted and accepted. However, what about a white-only fund of the same sort? No, it's inherently racist. I say that there is a strong case that minorities are more racist to whites nowadays than the other way around. Sure there are some bigots out there and there allways will be, but as a whole the white community has accepted minorities and it's time for the minorities to accept the fact that maybe the reason they wallow in poverty is because of their own choices in life and what is promoted by your particular race's own society, i.e. meaningless sex, drug use, breaking the law, money, excessive expensive jewelry, and cars. We need to stop giving minorites special help. Help yourselves for once.

I've been giving some thought as to why many people complain about this country, or want to leave. There's a lot of reasons but one of them is, I think, that we don't have pride in being English. It's difficult to raise the English flag without being perceived as racist, and you can't tick a box on any forms to say that you are English (you are often White: Other). and political correctness and fear of being sued mean that common sense in justice and politics has gone out of the window.
We've been subsumed into Europe and European laws are stronger than our own and the Human Rights Act has given rise to many laughable and lunatic judgements.
Are you proud to be Engish? If so, why? And if you have lost pride in being English, what are your reasons?

In America, every party I have been to on New Years I have worn black or dasrk colors. I figured thats what you wear to formal parties and all the New Years parties have been to are pretty formal. I am in Angola now and there are alot of Brazillians and they were all wearing white for New Years. Why is that?

It seems white Americans (and, to some extent, even black Americans) have been screaming bloody murder ever since Affirmative Action policies were implemented in an attempt to offset the cripling effects that legal segregation has had on black Americans and the nation as a whole. From what I understand, the idea behind the opposition to AA is that blacks can get any job and also receive admission to the university of their choice, regardless of their qualifications. Well, my research group recently carried out an interesting experiment to test the amount of bias against whites due to affirmative action hiring, which involved sending out a generous amount of job applications containing identical qualifications but with "fake" names that we considered to be obviously african american, and an equal amount of applications using "normal" names as well. Our findings? Those applications with normal names received nearly 70% more invitations to interviews. What does the general public think?
