So I'm asking because I've reviewed some questions in cultures & there's a lot of racist statements made by different races of people. But I am curious as to why these lame old stereotypes about Black people are still being thrown around by a few white people here. I get it all blacks are on welfare, blacks have no history, blacks are dumb, blacks are inferior. Basically it's the same stereotypes from like 1952, can you white racists not get some new material? Are you that dumb that you have to keep saying the same things over & over? None of your comments are the least bit witty or original. But anyhoo, I just wanted to know that if you believe these things are true, then why do you need to keep repeating it? If you truly believe you are superior than why would you waste your time writing about black people who you feel are low lives? When a person is truly secure and comfortable with himself he doesn't have to put anyone else down? So are you insecure and that's why you hate?

For all our faults and imperfections, haven't black people been talked about enough over the past 4 centuries? When will enough be enough?

You understand that the simple fact that they are racist will usually point to a lack of education and critical thought. In other words, these white boys aint the smartest of the bunch.
The black community in America has problems. But people who say they are all stupid, they are inferior are just as bad at causing problems as the people that say black people are superior, they can do no wrong, anything wrong in the community is the fault of others.
There needs to be an honest open dialog in this country. Quickly.

Well, mainly because, and I'm speaking in generalities here, whites generally are sick and damned tired of supporting people with our tax dollars who aren't trying to better themselves.
I work my *** off to have what I do, I'm not rich by a long shot, however, more than once, I've gotten behind some gal at the grocery store with two-inch fake nails, a $60 hairdo, and waddaya know, she's paying with food stamps and wic checks, and loading the groceries into a brand new $30K SUV with dealer tags. If she's got money for $60 'dos and fake nails, she's got money to buy her own damn groceries, we won't even get into the SUV payment.

I think that most racist people just want to throw stones at other races because they have nothing else to do. They are negative and so they want everyone to be just as miserable as they are, because it's so hard and heavy to carry around all that hatred. These people also never seem to want to resolve conflict so they just keep perpetuating the same ignorance, instead of trying to grow and evolve mentally as well as spiritually so that we can attain more peace and unity on earth.
As you can tell the only people that really answered this thought provoking question were people who aren't racist. The racists just want to make blanket ignorant statements that require using as few brain cells as possible instead of really trying to seriously question themselves and their beliefs which probably were just passed down to them by their parents, they're like 2 yr olds who don't even think for themselves.

In all fairness, everyone denies being racist usually. At a very young age, we learn of the pain and suffering caused by racism so to admit you are racist, would be admitting you are like those who caused the pain and suffering.

for people who are ignorant, it will never end.
it doesn't help that deeply rooted racism was a part of the legal and social culture of america for over 300 years.
the dred-scott decision made it law that blacks were legally 3/5ths of a regular person.
when this sort of thing gets weaved into the fabric of a culture, it has long lasting effects.
though racial and religious hatred seems to be all the rage worldwide these days...

Stereotypes? Ok, but they are true as well. You seem to have left crime out of your list. Blacks aren't involved w\that at all are they? Why do people keep talking about it? Because there are newcomers who must be informed of the truth.

In the 80's i was a typical liberal product of Public School. I loved rap music and black culture. Hell, I remember actually wishing I was black once because my life was so boring. No gangs in my town, no shootings, no graffiti everywhere.After i graduated, I enlisted in the US Navy. That is where I got my education about igger-nays. I remember this scene in my head perfectly.(Lemme just say that where i grew up you could leave your keys in your unlocked car for a month). I left my gold chain on my bunk on the pillow while I shaved. I came back less than 5 mins later and it was gone. There was one igger-nay there alone and I know no one else came in the berthing compartment because i asked him and he said yes but could not name the person. I asked him about the chain and he said pssssht and sucked his teeth and crumpled his lips in a quick sneer. That's all i got out of him because i was sure he was gonna slap me if i continued. That is TNB and i saw it many many times demonstrated before my eyes How do you think I generally feel about them now? NOt all of them, just almost all opf them and their TNB that seems to be unremovable from the black population.

Black people spark so much racism from their lack of compassion for their fellow man, their dishonesty and their tendency to rob, rape and kill. Name one country with over 50% ***** population thats doing well. Anyone? I thought so.
It's behavior like this that sparks resentment to blacks. I have never seen a white man stoop to such savagery over a parking spot:

I feel what you are saying. and thank you for making this question.. because i definitely agree with you... i guess the reason why we get mad when we read what these racists have to say is because it just annoys us... like damn its 2007.... and its not just black these racists have a problem with they hate anyone who is there race... Hispanics, Asian, blacks etc.. and i personally think it is a waste of time and energy... i think these racists really love us.. we give them something to do with their boring lives. lol

What makes you think you are any different than you were in 1952 - or 1652, for that matter?
Black-on White rape is 200 times White-on-black rape (see below) and we're not supposed to notice? It's your actions that spur hatred, not your skin color.
