It makes sense to me that white people can have children with i wide variety of characteristics... For example since we have recessive characteristics we can have children with black, brown, blue, green and hazel eyes, not to mention black, brown, red and blonde hair plus all shades of skin color.. I guess it depends on who we produce with... hehe sry its been on my mind all day and i know this will upset someone but does this bother non-whites?

I am asking because I am writing a short story and in one part of it, this Mexican mother is soothing her child and is being sweet to him and speaking to him in Spanish.

Please, MATURE answers preferred that happen to deal with the question! Thank you!

This is absolutely true. Mohammed had over 11 wives, but his favorite of all was little Aisha. She was 6 years old when he told Aisha's father (a 'friend' of his) that he was going to marry her. The shocking part is that according to Aisha and every authenticated source, she was 9 years old when Mohammed r@ped her. Sorry, you have to use the word r@pe because a 9 year old can't be considered a consenting age.

Whether or not she had started puberty is besides the point- she was 9 years old and he was over 50 years old.

Also, THIS HAS NEVER BEEN COMMON IN ANY CULTURE, AT ANY TIME, ANYWHERE ON THE PLANET.

In some cases, child marriages were common- but this was OTHER CHILDREN MARRYING OTHER CHILDREN. 14 year old boys being in an arranged marriage to a 12 year old girl may have been common.

Again, 50+ year old men forcing a small 9 year old child into intercourse has never been common.

However, Mohammed was a powerful warlord at the time. Who was going to send him to jail?

"Are you looking at me - well I don't see anyone else here - so you must be looking at me''?

In other words the macho pride crap - you know the type of thing:-

Two cars approach each other from either end of a narrow road - men with girlfriends and a big argument ensues!

or alternatively - the 'us' and 'them' carry on at football matches.

etc., etc., etc.,

If we can't get past this kind of thing - realistically - what hope is there for us ?

And is the conclusion scenario to the film I-Robot, one possible outcome, although drastic, to cure us of this?

Personal example: Black frats hand out flyers to 'black' only parties to ONLY black people on campus all the time, and you know if a white frat house handed out 'white only' flyers to just white people they'd be shut down before monday.

You have the United ***** College Fund.
You have Martin Luther King Day.
You have Black History Month.
You have Cesar Chavez Day.
You have Yom Hashoah
You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi
You have the NAACP.
You have BET.

If we had WET(white entertainment television) we'd be racists.

If we had a White Pride Day you would call us racists.

If we had white history month, we'd be racists.

Blacks are allowed in Miss America...but they still have Miss Black America, If we had Miss White America, we'd be racists

If we had an organization for only whites to "advance" our lives, we'd be racists.

If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships, you know we'd be racists.

I love people from ALL races, and I think everyone is beautiful; however, it's something about we Black people who bring a special interest of intrigue, beauty, charisma, and intelligence to this nation--despite what the media or close-minded racists say. It takes a soldier of fine character to endure the trials and tribulations of the centuries of slavery...

As I said before, I have love for ALL races - God made you all beautiful and you are my brothers and sisters - but He created the ultimate masterpiece: the beautiful, exotic Black race.

So black people, tell me, what makes you proud of being black?

This is not intended to be racist, but I see so many people putting down on blacks and black people putting down on themselves. Be proud of who you are and the opportunity God gave you!

**I'm proud to be Black because I am a very, very beautiful, very successful, independent, young black woman who's getting married to a strong Black man of my caliber July 7, 2007.**

3 other woman who said they were straight but liked to make out with women. Hmmmm...isn't the gay population mantra based upon 'acceptance'? Yet these 3 lesbians looked down on the other 3 and basically dennounced them; did not accept their choice, lifestyle, their person.

Couldn't this be considered a) hypocritical and b) non-acceptance of others?

I don't mean disrespect to any race, but sometimes I feel like some, not all, African Americans do not like white people. Obviously slavery was a hanious, unforgivable crime to committ against African Americans, but not all white people were involved with that. Many families, like my own, have only lived in America for 1 generation. The Scottish and Irish were enslaved for hundreds of years also. Not all caucasions are racist. Can anyone, from any race, explain this to me, or give me some examples? Again, I do not mean to be disrespectful to anyone.
