why is it okay to make fun of my race, but not of any lighter racess???
I really dont care about how people say blacks arent the only ones tha got it bad...because we have it WORSE.
While i was on a computer friend site,
a muslim boy told me "shutup you little black girl".
First imnt a lil girl, And yah im black, but ur muslim soo....watever. But i gaurrantee if i told him "shutup cr*cka" or "shutup terrorist" or "shut up lil mexican" it would be a HUGE issue.
Can some one help me figure out the reason why whitter skinned people are aloud to make fun of blacks???
NO MEAN COMMENTS

Actully you can't. I happen to be white and if i EVER called a person who happend to have darker skin a name i would be like beaten up and all. After all my cousin's are black and i would NEVER do it anyway. (ps not that many people do it)

Personaly I do not think it's right to make fun of blacks or anyone for that matter. We are all human and we all have the same everything the only difference is our color. I find it very rude for people out there that make fun of color people. I am still yet to find out why they make fun of them tho But it really Pis*ses me off. I am white... You said up there While i was on a computer friend site,
a muslim boy told me "shutup you little black girl".
First imnt a lil girl, And yah im black, but ur muslim soo....watever.
You mention that you don't think it's ok to make fun of other people's races but what do you think this comment is?And yah im black, but ur muslim soo....watever You just made fun of what she is......

Wait. I agree blacks still get put down with sickening regularity. I think it's because there's a lot of racism still alive all over the globe. BUT...
You are giving as an example the behavior and etiquette and intelligence level of trolls on the internet. Time out! That doesn't count. I have been called everything but anything good by trolls on the internet. If you come here, you need to expect that. Also, you need to NOT see all people everywhere as feeling like people who are trying to get under people's skin here. Many or most don't.
It's bad. But it's not as bad as it is on the internet, except maybe in the KKK headquarters in Mississippi.

lol, what?! ok, not sayin' that blacks have it easy now, but we do have it a little easier. so when people do make fun of us, something is done. not all the time but most of the time. also, what was supposed to be done?! lol, you we're on the computer! if that was the case so many people should be kicked off this site because so many people make racist comments each and everyday. so all i can say is, what you're asking about doesn't even take place. nice question though. bye.

Whites do not have a monopoly on racism.
Blacks do not have a monopoly on being victims of racism.
Every race is just as racist as another - it's just usually the majority picks on the minority. Are you saying that black South Africans kicking white farmers off their land for being white isn't racist? Minorities will ALWAYS have it the hardest, because homo sapiens are naturally judgemental and persecute those unlike themselves. You can see that judgemental side by you assuming that because he's muslim he's a terrorist. How about noticing your faults before criticising others?

It isn't ok too make fun of blacks or any other race. People who do are ignorant and crass.

1 racism is racism. Many blacks are racist too white people. Many white people are racist to blacks. Many blacks are racist to Asian people.
Life is such as that, this will not change. If it's a joke, ITS A JOKE! and it is racist to take it offensively.

It is never okay to make fun of anyone for any reason. People who make fun of other people are insecure and make fun of other people to make up for their own faults When people have no respect for themselves they have no respect for other people. You have to realize that people that make fun of other people are the ones with problems. I pity people that have to find fault with other people. They just don't seem to get it- no one is perfect.

I don't think it's okay to make fun of African Americans at all. People are just rude and have been mean to African Americans forever.
