What do you think are the critical reasons why Blacks are the most segregated minority group in the United States Socioeconomics? Sense of community? Racism? Anything else?

On 20/20 last night there was a part about people protesting at funerals, especially soldier's funerals with signs saying God Hates You, Thank God For 9/11, etc. That's just not right! I think 20/20 said that they were going to get some time of punishment for doing this. If they're not going to be sent to jail for doing this, then they should! This is rude and disruptive to the people around them. What do you think?

In my state and most others, non-hispanic white males are the only people who don't legally have minority status. Women of any race and men of any race but white are given special treatment as minorities.

Martin Luther King once said "Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that." I think he would agree that discrimination cannot drive out discrimination, only equality can do that.

Giving one race an advantage over another is racism. Giving one sex an advantage over the other is sexism. I am not racist or sexist. I believe everyone should have an equal opportunity.

What do you think?

I've often wondered, when watching movies about the American Revolution, how long does it take to develop a distinct accent. The Americans always talk like modern Americans in these movies. Wouldn't they have had a British accent?

...scandals involving their own clergies? It just seems like they're the last people who should be throwing stones when it comes to living so-called moral lives. Don't they see that their own judgement has been their downfall?

Alright i know the whole Native Americans are the original Americans. My question is basically who are the true Americans between Hispanics and white? Hispanics are seen as immigrants when in fact they belong to south American countries, and while white people come from Europe. Give me some of your opinions.

A White guy doesn't like another dude because he is a total jerk, like a cross between Puff Daddy and Urkel.

I imagine that God wanted us to remain separated on Earth but integrated in Heaven. On Earth, other races can harm each other and live in hatred yet in heaven we will have no need to separate as there would be no sin. On Earth, many races living in the same area cause crime and war yet in heaven we will be hand in hand. I believe in segregation so that races cannot harm each other. Why do you think Los Angeles is full of crime and hatred? I hate no other race and would not wish harm to anyone. In heaven, we will all be integrated and all hatred would be erased from God, thus no more problems. Through my 73 years of life, I have realized it for 5 years.

Shouldn't civil rights leaders speak out against the attacks of every race of people when crimes are perpetrated in a bias manner? Your opinions, please.

is it true that French people are rude?? Like really rude?
cuz I've heard this many times especially from my friend cuz she's been to a french school once and the French eacher was really mean and he called my friend's mum a s**t !

it might happen, but if it does is not going to be anytime soon. Because imagine how long it's going to take for all the people of China to be mixed. Or all the other countries. And i think that theres going to be some people that will want to be with their own race. What do you think?

Why do us blacks get so defensive and angry when people say that our race commits the most crime? its been proven and is documented? is it that hard to deal with the truth?

I posted a pic of myself before online and I have gotten the most evil comments from :

1) You are African and 3/4 of Africa has AIDS (I am not from Africa by the way Im just Black)

2) Blacks are ugly

3) and other racist and mean comments in general

What I want to know is what is with these racist and mean comments? I though we were past attacking people on race but it seems as though we arent.

I want to know if me posting my picture is warranting me getting attacked? And why is my race always the first thing to get attacked?
