want to about whites, laugh at us, tell jokes about us, call us words like: honky, white trash, white trailer trash, inbred, Klansman, Nazi, gringo and we can't say one word in our defense or we are labeled "racist" ? Minorities can have their own schools, colleges, websites, TV shows, TV channels, radio stations. social organizations, churches, but if whites try to form anything all white, we are called "racist."

It's because we're the majority and for years we could say or
do anything we wanted-no political correctness.
Now the pendulum is swinging the other way and will for years
to come.
Maybe in time NOONE will be allowed to make racist comments
and get away with it.

Most things, contrary to the view of white people, are white.
That is the reason to have formed historically black colleges. Which may I advise you have students that are not black.
All social organizations have some criteria, some are ethnic, some are economic some are educational. I would say your point in that is not really an argument as they do discriminate, openly.
Take a look around you from an objective point of view rather than the view of a white person or non white person. You will see what a white America we live in.
As for the derogatory comments, it is wrong from anyone. However, I would say that due to history, it is less tolerated from whites than non-whites.

I could not agree with you more! I was raised and have always seen people as people, not races. Not anymore! Why should I have to suffer for racism? The United ***** College Fund really pisses me off! You can bet I would be a hated person, were I to start The Caucasian Cause College Fund, right? What about the Latin Grammy's? No white musicians in that auditorium, were there?
The most ridiculous part is that your question and even my response will be called racist by someone...

I was actually wondering why when someone expresses a comment against any liberal constituency, they are called bigoted. It is even to the point where each group has their own special term, ie, racists, homophobes, etc.
Yet, no such word exist for a single and conservative constituency while the religious right are based daily and the left simply falls back on the freedom of speech defence.
The double standards these cretins live by is nauseating.
Cantcu - apparently you couldn't see Archie Bunker either. It was a satire, mo.

I'm sad to say we already have public white organizations who can do and say as they please; they're called Congress and Corporations. I understand exactly where you are coming from about the comments, because nobody likes to be referred to by a slang word, but until we become the minorities and there is more diversity amongst the above "groups" that's the way it'll be. But it's not all totally true regarding the schools, websites and TV shows/channels radio. I'm unaware of totally Caucasian social groups and churches, but I guarantee they exist too.
Don't forget my all time favorite which I lovingly call myself....CRACKER!

That is because in this country we have a past of "seperate but equal" statue. We are a country who once had slaves, and then when a war solved that issue several in the South still wanted them enslaved henceforth "seperate but equal". There are reasons for colleges and such, as minorities have not always been given the same chance to succeed as a white man. This is coming from a white person who gets it, and obviously you don't.

It's called Political Correctness. Whites can't offend another race because it would be harmfull. Affirmative Action is to allow the disadvantaged non-whites to try to compete.
So let them do their thing, they feel better to use slurs against whites. Just ignore them. I do.

Cites please!
No one remembers Archie Bunker do they?
And you are spouting the racist line, so that is where you fit!
Why are you so damn preoccupied with people we brought here to be slaves, weren't allowed to marry, and were tortured and raped! Many who had children out of wedlock, like Washington ( our non-First President) had a few!
I didn't hearing your B______G when we were making fun of them, or lynching them, or sicking attack dogs on them in the South. You don't like it? Well neither did they!!
Back to the blacks, huh?
