Black and white Americans probably have much more in common that Africans and black Americans. What do you think?

If you were busted for possession of marijuana (I wasn't, btw!), and the cops told you that they could drop all charges on your account if you were willing to tell them exactly where you got it from. Kind of like, using you as bait to catch the bigger fish...
what would you do?

When some people look at me they assumed I didn't know any english, while I speak it very fulently. They don't even know who I am yet they think I'm from, India just by looking at me.

For example, when a radio station in New York made fun of the 2004 Asian Tsunami that killed 200,000 people, most people found it funny and told Asians to "lighten up"...however, if the joke is about 9/11, it is forbidden?

Recently while on a driving vacation over in your country. I went into a deli for lunch somewhere in the middle of Alabama. The very pretty black girl serving me was obviously quite taken with my English accent.
Her friend however made it quite clear that this was way out of order. I at first thought this was because i was a customer, but no she made it plain it was because i was white.
I've never encountered this type of thing before and was amazed.
In England every other black person you see will be with a white partner.
I thought maybe this was a one off, but everywhere i went , that being Florida, Alabama and Geogia. I saw white people with white and black people with black.
Now i know your history with slavery and all is more complicated than Englands over this sort of issue.
But in this day and age it seems really strange to me.
Is it like this throughout all the US and can anyone please explain to a dumb limey why it is.

I can't believe how people were dressed today at the dps office. Youo are going to be carrying that picture around for 4 years so why do you show up in a sloppy tshirt? Why can't people put something decent on at least the top part of their body for the picture?

They're thought this for over 16 years, but they still do it. Then, they all say they're pregnant with a quiver on their lips. That quiver could have been used wisely to prevent the pregnancy; why would they put it any place else?

I work in a place with 9 guys ranging in age from 22 - 52. At first I thought this would be a good thing because I thought women were by nature nosier. I am finding that I cannot take a crap without these guys wanting to know about it. It is honestly driving me crazy. I do not care what any of these guys are doing throughout the course of the day, why do there care so much about what I'm doing. The older ones are far worse than the younger ones. How can I tell them to F off and mind there own business in a nice way?

He is a male, white, aged 22 and heterosexual. Does that make me a racist, sexist, ageist homophobe? Start the countdown!

I'm in a homeless shelter where I'm not allowed to work, & the staff treat us like we're kindergarteners. I'm not allowed to verbally defend myself without getting punished when other clients of the shelter harrass me, & I get in trouble, & they don't. I want to work, but I'm not allowed to work. What would you do in this situation? I have my college degree, & I can't use it. I JUST graduated from college, too. Also, I've been through a lot of abuse. That's why I'm in a shelter.Would you feel bad to go 5 yrs. of college & not be allowed to utilize your degree?

Most guys judge girls based on how pretty they are. Not their personality, right?

Did you hear about that guy who slit his throat in his cell like 12 hours before he was scheduled to be executed? I mean wouldn't the lethal injection have been less painful?

Why is it that my daughters pick up all of the bad habits of the father? He leaves the cap of the toothpaste, dirty clothes all over the floor, pass gas, burps, very loud. I am totally the opposite, I am very neat, have manners. They are closer to me, you'd figure they would imitate me, but no, they imitate their father! Will they ever go back and do everything I taught them?

...if a young child plays a violent video game, clearly marked as Mature on the box?

The makers of the video game?

Or the parents of the child, who bought him/her the game without checking to see what they were buying?

Please explain your views.
