Reading some of your replies are both funny and sad. Most of you have generalized, stereotyped and put black people into one group of people. I myself am black...and I'm curious if these replies come from experiences with black people or things you have made up in your minds to be true.  It would be a gross miscalculation to characterize all white people as big truck driving, mullet-wearing Budweiser-drinking rednecks. The same is true with black people...not everyone wears gold chains, is thugged out or a murderer/criminal.  I'm not one of these flag waving we should all get along types...but my God you have to be kidding me. To the person who posted a reply about being passed over for a job because of race...I'm really curious to hear about that. Was the person not qualified? At the end of the day it's about money. People could careless what color you are...sure it helps with look we are a diverse company but you are usually the only black person and you better work your ass off.  I work in an industry where 13 percent are minorities...which is fine. But to shine...as another poster said...you have to rise above and go beyond your other co-workers, who take 2-hour lunches, play golf in the afternoon and lounge around and talk.  What I'm getting at is we all go through the same BS regardless of race. So, while we waste our time on these bulletin boards talking about our differences the world still goes around and people continue to get rich off of ALL of our backs. Welcome to the new slavery where everyone is fair game. Even if the entire African American population were to be fine upstanding citizens, intelligent, friendly, well spoken, law abiding, not leaching off of the taxpayers, etc.... I wouldn't want to live around them, I wouldn't want them living next door to me, I wouldn't want White people and Black people dating , marrying or having mutt children, I wouldn't want you around, because your very presence is a threat to the survial of MY race and MY culture. Plus.....I am a Patriot......and the fore founders of this country only intended for free WHITE men of good moral standing to be Americans, so as far as I see it, you're not an American. Thomas Jefferson didn't think so, George Washington didn't think so, Abe Lincoln, Benjamin Franklin and John Adams didn't think so , and so neither do I. I am a White Separatist, I would be a White Separatist even if I thought the American Blacks were fantastic human beings. It would make no difference. But the reality is......Any neighborhood or city that is majority Black....is a ghetto, and before they became majority non White.....They were nice places to live....hm.....what a coincidence... The reality is.....the vast majority of the crime in America , especially murder and rape, is committed by Blacks or Mestizos. The fact is....our cities have been turned into third world warzones by Blacks, and Mestizos........ The fact is...the Black community in America is not going to shape up, we've been waiting for that to happen.....forever, not gonna happen, it only gets worse. We don't need you, we don't want you, it's our country, not yours, the fore founders of this once great country purposely left non Whites, Blacks and slaves out of the original naturalization and immigration acts. They purposely excluded you from being citizens. All of those men on the dollar bills, all of those men on Mount Rushmore.....didn't think you should be a citizen. So how or why would you want to be an American?? When the very Fathers of this country never intended you to be an American? When they owned slaves even? They were White Nationalists, and even more....they were White Supremacists. How could you ever be an American then? You can't. You can think you are, but you'll never be American. Not to me.
