They say that because that's the easiest explanation without having a constructive conversation. They jump to conclusion because they let thier emotions control thier reaction, basically they don't stop and think before they talk. This doesn't mean they are stupid but it does mean they are not smart, what I mean by this is they (the racist white people) probably have had a encounter with a black person that embarassed or beat the hell out of him or her and instead of trying to look inside himself to find out why he was beat up or embarassed, he takes the easy route and doesnt think about it at all, thus leaving the conclusion "blacks are to blame for my hard times" the easiest and best possible answer for them.

There are good and bad people in every race. To stereotype one race or another for what a few "ignorant" people say or do is just wrong!!!!!!
As a member of the Caucasian race.......the only thing that irritates me is when some blacks attempt to use their skin color as an excuse for not succeeding. The whites who think they are superior are just idiots!!!
We are all equal in God's eyes. (and mine)

Thanx for your comment. I am white. I think more whites blame blacks than the other way around but I have no proof. I think blacks often are victimized while whites rarely are. But all racism is lousy and should not be around today. I honestly think that it would be hard for me not to dislike the white power structure if I was a poor black. Its still hard to advance. I know, I work in Human Resources. When you get promoted whites say it was cuz of affirmative action. You can't win! But if you keep on being reasonable you will win in the end. Thanx again.

Ever see the movie Crash? It explains a lot about why people are prejudice. Just not whites against blacks, but all different kinds of groups. It's just stereotypical bull crap, and unfortunately, some people are raised to think that way or experience a bad situation that makes them that way. It could be for any reason really.

Some black people do say that and not all whites think like that. Why does it always have to be about race? Alot of people think they are superior not just whites.

Well, I know. I am white and unfortunately my brother and my grandmother are the most racist bastards I have ever met. I know that it sucks but there are those kinds in every race. Just ignore them. They are ignorant and need to realize people are people regardless of race, age, sex, or disabilities! I wish I could change it! I can't so I just pretend like they don't exsist!

I don't think all whites say that blacks blame them for hard times. It's a good thing you haven't said that, because that means you are intelligent.
I live in Canton, OH and the lowest income class in this area are the blacks and they are always standing on the streets and shouting about how the whites caused their hard times. I just roll my eyes and walk on, because I have plenty of high-class black friends, and I'm not just talking about finances.

Its like that with ALL races, honey. You may as well get used to it. It makes me sick too. But people are all flawed, no matter what color or religion. You just have to rise above it and be the better person!!!! Peace! I'm white, but I have other races in my blood and my mother taught me that we are all created by God with a purpose....

Most people prefer to blame everything on someone else so that they don't have to show real maturity and own up for their actions. Just like how Bush lovers want to blame everything that goes wrong with his Administration on Clinton and the Liberals. It's a matter of testosterone; who has it and who doesn't.
