Do Minorities Get Special Treatment?

Question

I was looking online and found out that in congress, there is a Congressinal Black Caucus and a Congressional Hispanic Caucus, but there is no Congressional White Caucus or an accepted one if there is one. What if White Congresspersons would create one, would they be forced to resign under racism charges?

Answer 1

Yes, minorities get special treatment. Just like you'd be racist if you decided to start a United White College Fund. It is complete garbage. If it is racist to go one way, it is racist to go the other. Eliminatae race from the equation entirely and just have a United People College Fund!!!!!!!!

Answer 2

I don't think it would get that far because they know it would stir up a hornets nest. And yes, minorities do get special treatment. We need to ask why they get special treatment. Personally I think it's the way wee as a country have treated blacks and Hispanics in the past. For cryin out loud, we had slaves 150 years ago,segregation in the 60's ( and still today). I know that when I took the exam to become a police officer I failed because of the grading curve that black & hispanic people get. I out scored everyone in the class but I was the only white person in the class.The grading curve was different and I didn't get the job. I wasn't angry, everyone has the right to a good job. I really don't care that I did'nt get it because now we are starting to see more black leaders, more hispanic leaders than before. I hope we get some good candidates in the future for president. I left out one major detail,WOMEN. Women fit well into this category also. It's a shame that we don't see more women in powerful positions. I really hope that changes soon. Think about this, never a woman pres, only white pres, no women or black SOH only old white guys.We need to make a change.

Welcome to Political Correctness..only white people can be racist. A black person can say "Honkey, cracker, whitie" and nothing will happen. I say "Ni***r" and I get in alot of trouble. It's unfair. There is no white history month or white man march. If whtie people had that it'd be racist. But black people can have it?

That's not right. And its always " They did it cause I'm black!". Consider this, Hate crime is BS. It doesn't matter what color you are, all crime is commited out of hate. The people don't want to be segregated, but they do it to themselves. The Government does it too with hate crime laws.

When is the last time you heard of a black person commiting a hate crime? Only white people can do that. Justice is blind. White people are the minority, not black or hispanics. Yet they get everything they want by screaming "RACISM!!"

Answer 4

I like how you think. I've always wondered the same thing. Why is there a BET (Black Entertainment Television) but no WET or CET (White or Caucasian Entertainment Television)?

Why is there a Black History Month?

Why is there a Black Miss America Pagaent?

When the Mexicans finally become a majority in the US (c'mon, let's strengthen immigration laws while we still can), then will we be allowed to have all white focus groups, organizations, events?

Answer 5

The original intent was to give some parity to the perceived disadvantaged. Giving women the right to vote is still regarded in some circles as a mistake.

Answer 7

yes they do and yes, he'd probabily have to resign. Pathetic ain't it. It was our brains and money that made the country what it is today and now we're treated like second class citizens.

Answer 8

whites have no rights, you have black history month with all the beautiful pencil drawings and little stories behind them, you now have mexican heroes month . but try and get a white history month and see what happens.

Answer 9

I'm a white minority and i don't get special treatment.
