There is a part of me (me whiteman!) that says that I am sorry that my ancestors were too uninformed, or misguided to not say "leave them unharmed" when they discovered coloured races. I am unable to do anything about that.
However, the educated part of me says, hey! Wait a minute! If it wasn't for my ancestors I wouldn't be here. They must have done something right.
Think about that.
I'm not saying what they did to coloured people was right, in fact I would love to go back in time and say, "Donot harm them!" But who's to say that the coloured people would not have killed my ancestors first? Then I wouldn't be here to answer this question.
I'm saddened and confused about what did actually happen between the coloured people and the whites, but I cannot change that, neither can you.
Therefore, let's unite together and thenceforth say;
"Donot harm them!"

It had nothing to do with "White people" thinking they can go around the world and conquer everything. The lust for power and the thirst to gain more power has been around since the beginning of time, for all cultures and colors. Is Osama bin laden white? Isn't he and his followers aggressively trying to influence the radical muslims to join their fight in spreading their ideas across the globe by punishing and killing anyone who stands in their way? How about all the war and fighting in Africa? Are they white? Have white people caused all the genocide and killings in Rwanda, Darfur, Somalia, Nigeria?
Before making an ill-informed statement like it is white people who do all this nonsense; you should get your facts in line. Is the war in iraq justified - absolutely not! Do I agree or support President Bush and his ideaology - No! The more important question should be why does the US have to come to the aid of everyone? The rest of the world does not have the stomach or guts to take care of the dirty business that is affecting the world. The United Nations is a joke, a completely incompetent organization that has made a mess of the oil for food program and is incapable of addressing the world's problems. So, if no one else is going to take the lead the US needs to. Unfortunately, we have an idiot for a president that is incapable of doing anything right.

When you say white people you seem to be talking about all white people therefor you have condoned prejudice behavior. It would be in your best interest and everybody for that matter to stay away from this kind of thinking simply because your doing the very thing to others that you so dislike that happened to you. As a whole, white people are not that bad after all. The reason people are cluttered in other some countries is not the fault of white people only. There are others reasons this is happening as well. Please in the future educate yourself about this subject and I'm sure you will feel better about white people. Not all white people but most of them.
Thank you

Well from the point of view of a white woman, I find it absolutely astounding that people think we truly have a great deal of input to our own government. "White people" persay are not the issue. It is, however, I believe-the white people that happen to be in power. I love my country and fully support our men and women in uniform. They choose to join to protect a nation against threats they are told exist. I also have taken classes and read a great deal on what not only this country has done at war, but others as well. I can become ill over things i have read. I do not know who said this "absolute power corrupts absolutely", but it is so true. I refuse to blame an entire race for their leaders errors in judgment or cruelty. I have known good people from many different races and know better. None of us can change the past to make the present better, the question is what are we going to do now for our future? I cannot change what my ancestors may have done, but i refuse to repeat the ignorance.

Apparently you believe it ! What kind of idiot are you ? Stop what you are doing , and look at the world . Why are your people stacked like rats ? Intelligent people would stop breeding like rats if they got so crowded ! What does this say about your people ? Can you not understand what causes pregnancy ? Or are your people trying to overwhelm the world with sheer numbers ? Either way , you are irresponsible as a people .

You know there is an answer to keep people from living all cluttered up in hell holes like rats.
It is called birth control- the most effective and cheapest method is abstinence.
Just so they don't smell like rats- here's another idea- SOAP-
Costs next to nothing to make and can be sold at a profit.
You are really funny.

excuse me white people are not the ones who continue to sell children into slavery in South Africa to work cocoa farms, 12,000 children in slavery there also diamond mines are mined by slaves and that is not white people doing it, and another point the Northern whites in America fought against slavery remember our Civil war????? and none of us get credit for that lots of ancestors died for their freedom I never heard anyone ever say thank you for that!!!!!!!
nope just keep harping on slavery here 200 years ago and none of them complaing know first thing about being a slave, also why should we care if you are stacked up like rats in your country???? want our money for what ever reasons but not us whites in your country??? We do not start all the wars either countries fight within themselves all the time then cry for our help then have gull to say we whites think oourselves better than whomever???Get a clue go home get out of my country, I will never be in yours, Never left America and never plan too. I am white, Indian, English, Yugaslavian, and others think everyone in America been here a few generations like my family 10 generations of Americans intermarried others so doubt I am totally white anymore than any other Americans if they are truthful.

It's the life boat theory in full swing. You want to sink your boat go ahead. Come to mine - you'll be swimming.
The world population is growing and there will be large scale disasters if it's not controlled.
In 1970 the population was almost 4 billion now it's almost 7 billion!
World population 1900 was 1.6 billion.
Future world population projections:
Year Population
(in billions)
2010 - 6.8
2020 - 7.6
2030 - 8.3
2040 - 8.9
2050 - 9.4
I'll vote to save my country anyway, call it what you like. I don't care what color anybody is.
Of course there are natural controls like famine and plagues. I'd rather avoid that by controlling the population up front.

Every human comes from the same source.We either make heaven on earth or we make hell on earth it is our choice..Why do white people get blamed for everything? I am white and I mind my own business,we have to work just like everyone else does. I don't see those kind of differences in people. I really do try not to look at people as a color just as a person.

What the heck are you rambling about? If you are stacked like rats, maybe you need some white people to come over and help you out. Just like we have done for over a hundred years. And further more, what makes you think that only white people are Americans?
