This doesn't make any sense. Whites are NOT the minority. As of 2005 the U.S. Census Bureau reported that whites makes up 74% of the country's population. Even if they were, they are completely and utterly in power right now. Look at the government. 90+% of Congress, the judicial branch, and the executive brance are white people. If two black men drag an innocent white man to death, they still go to jail. In fact, more black men are on death row than white men, despite the overwhelming larger population of white men in the country. So what is your point?

I don't think that he means that whites are the minority in the literal, numerical sense. He just means that people are bending over backwards to be PC and that there is now a double standard.
BET comedians can make fun of whites and get away with it but a white doing the same on TV would be thrown out. Nagin can say about New Orleans that he wants 'his chocolate city back' but if a white mayor said that, the race card would be flying everywhere.

OJ represented the first black that has actually committed a crime against whites and got off. Seriously, in almost every trial before that one, evidence pointing to a black person doing it meant they go to jail. Forget reasonable doubt, they used reasonable truth.
Whites aren't a minority in this country buddy. You will be one day. But even as a minority you still won't see blacks and mexicans holding high offices in government, high positions at corporations, or being business owners (which is where the true wealth and power come from). You have nothing to worry about. Whites will always be the power in America. They stole it fair and square.

There are over 300,000,000 people in America. 100,000,000 of them are minorities. 200,000,000 are white.
"your own kind"? what kind of statement is that? A black person might have a different skin color than mine, bu they are my kind.
and what do you think would happen to the two hypothetical black men who dragged a hypothetical white man? that they wouldn't be a severely punished because they are black?

You sound very frustrated. Was there something in the news or something that happened to you personally lately involving people of two different races where you felt someone got off easy or got away with something?
If so, then you need to make your voice heard to those who are in charge of the unjust situation. If enough people sound off to those who are in charge (WE give them that power you know through our votes and our taxes) then things will not stand as they are. They cannot help but change it if there is enough of a public outcry.
You are part of the public- go ahead- CRY OUT to those who can change it. Tell us here what you need help with- move us to act, tell us what's wrong and what you think we could do to make a change for the better and i guaran-damn-tee ya we will respond to your cries with shouts for change of our own!!
AMEN.
p.s. stop looking at people in terms of color and see them for people for starters. Look for the injustice, not the color of the skin of those involved.

They get put to death much more quickly than the two white men do...thats why some people don't like the death penalty it is biased and whites are less likely to get it...look at Charles Manson...how many people did he kill?

A better suggestion: you could move to a country which has a high percentage of whites such as Iceland. If you'd like to stay in the US, I suggest Maine, it is #1 in white residents. But you might want to avoid Portland, ME, it's beginning to look like America.

Which country are you from? because white's are not a minority in america, and besides, even if they were, they still make a lot of money than most people so no, they wouldn't learn spanish even if they wanted to.

Whites have a superiority complex that makes them feel that they are better than others and that is why these things happen...
