Racism...we cant get along
People are ass holes and idiots regardless of their skin color. People are going to hate you, ridicule you and shit on you when ever they get the chance. When you take this personally and impose their ignorance on to an entire race of people, You are going to miss out on wonderfull oppertunities at building bridges to a lasting relationship with others, as well as fuel the fire that seperates humanity into seperate races instead of a unified species.
sorry for the mindless post, i took my happy pills today rages is out and remorse is in

I understand some Whites in the city i live in, Boston, which is predominantly Irish, hate me and call me n*gger merely because my skin color is brown, without me doing anything to them, but is that even right? I mean at least hate me for something i can control. I can't control the fact that I'm not White. On top of it being irrational and illogical, racism meaning, it's like hating to death someone that's handicap just because they're handicap.

Anyway, you all are going to have to deal with the fact that racism exist, and people are asses regardless of race. Who gives a ****? Hate exist. It just is there. Now if you want to discuss how things got how they are, that's one thing, but to simply complain and say "whites are inherently racist" and so on displays just as much bigotry as any racist jargon.
Drop the dumb shit already.

Re: Re: Racism...we cant get along
Of course people hate you for being black, People hate you also for being an american, and im sure people hate you because they just hate. There are also people that respect you and emplore you for being a bigger person and realizing that hate is blind and you will not let it effect you to the degree of compromising your personality.
When you do give into the hate and take a side, this further seperates you from unity, you lose the respect and admiration that you would have had as well as the influence you could have shared on to others. Where are you then...further seperated from humanity, or a soldier in the war of race?
If you dont want to live in a world where people are ridiculed, despised and even killed for their skin color, How does being racist yourself contribute to this goal?

Well, I could be wrong, but, I don't think the entire Boston area even knows you, let alone, thinks one way or the other about you or your skin hue/sun screen. Look, the loud ones are always the most effective and sometimes, when others don't contradict their statement, it appears as if they are speaking for the entire group.
You consider yourself Dominican, but I've been around Dominicans, even the ones with brown skin, they don't go at it like you do. You act more so like a Haitian.
And regarding brown skin, as far as DNA is concerned, you are one and so is anyone who's race would wipe out another, so you aren't a "n" because you are brown, it's what brown does in the gene pool. Trust me, if you produced white kids, they wouldn't think you are any differently then them, but guess what? People with dark skin do not produce white children, so to them, it's as if via sexual reproduction, an annihilators, subtractors, one that takes away just because they can (that's the true sense of the word "n"). so, in DNA wise, being the dominate gene does make it that way to the ones who see you as a N by default (meaning that you said nothing in your inner thoughts or facial expression that would lead someone to think you are a person who enjoys the negative).

Re: Re: Re: Racism...we cant get along
the fact is, that there are people that hate him because he is black and dont know his name, nor want to know his name. There are people that hate me because im white. There are people that would murder me because im white and american all over the world. The question is...what are you going to do about it? Dwell on the problems of others perspectives, Hate them aswell, let my disdain for blind hate grow within me to where i become blind with hate aswell? Or realize that there is love, hate and acceptance, And that i dont have to hate?

You are liberally clumping the ones who hate you with the ones who hate the OP because he is black, using this nexus, you are always going to be a pawn to people like him.
I never said anything about the whole Boston area knowing and hating me but it's probable that most of the Whites living in that city will not like me because i'm brown, no matter how law abiding i am, as most of the Whites i've encountered were racist towards me. I've had hundreds of racial incidents that i've either experienced or witnessed since i was a kid, living here in Boston. My mom and family had to move once cause of racism violence on us. I love Boston but most of it's predominant people hate me cause i'm brown. And that sucks. You think after centuries and the passage of time would dissolve the hate of different skin hue but it's only gotten worse.
And i am sympathetic towards Haitians and what they're going through with the political turmoil going on over there. In fact i think they have some of the most loyal and beautiful woman i know. I like them better than I do Dominican women. So Haitians are very cool by mean. They're genuinely good hard working people.
As far as the hooey with the DNA, an English translation would be nice.

hmmmmm, well first i would like to start off and say i am black, and i do come in here from time to time, and Fist is one of the more frequent posters, so i have seen alot of his opinions regarding race, some i agree with most i don't. Now.. my whole stance on racism is this, it exist its out there, its in everyone. I don't think in this day and age unless you were raised by monks in the mountains, that anybody doesn't think, talk, or react based on race in some conscious, or subconscious way. The history of America as well as the world as shaped the people to their current form today. The irony tho, is that all of things to hate, the most prevalent issues seem to be race and sexual preference, two things that in no way compromise the way we live and work. Racism in america is painted as balck and white, but its way more than that. The school i went to the students didin't mind cracking asian jokes about thier eyes to the kids face. It was racist, but as long as it wasn't to a black or white student it was alright. This kind of nonsense has got to stop.
My biggest issue is racial streotyping or profiling. To me that is racism, it may not always be negative per se, but it is. Making generilzations of individuals based on the actions of a few people in their race, is not fair at all to the individual. In some cases its positive, and i cant reall ymake a case for that, but when it is negative, ik believe its racially motivated.

It would've been nice to add what your point was. What, that your version cannot happen while mine always does everyday?

In Boston, hatefully by other Whites? Impossible. Boston's predominant are a click here and is probably the most racist major city in the whole entire norththeastern U.S.
