<<That's called reverse racism Tee.>>
You obviously have no idea what reverse racism means, sirs. Reverse racism is where members of the victimized race develop their own racial theories according to which THEY are the superior race and their oppressors are the inferior race. A good example of this would be the religion (can't think of the name of it right now) holding that whites are the result of an experiment gone wrong by an evil scientist named Yakoob, and are referred to as "blue-eyed devils." That is exactly what reverse racism is.
<< Racism is racism, whether its a majority of 1 race supporting their over all others, or a minority of 1 race, supporting their race over all others. >>
It's amazing how GOP racists like you think you can twist the truth around 180 degrees just by switching one single word; try taking out "supporting" and inserting instead "seeking the dominance of" and you'd pretty much have it right.
<<News flash, racism is a fraction of the problem it was, back in the early to mid 1900's.>>
That's not the issue, the issue is what fraction? I say it's still a major factor in American life, but that since the theory of racism (legalized white supremacy) has been pretty much discredited, racists work in covert ways on issues that resonate with racists and have racist effects, the end-goal of which is the domination of blacks under a facade of what BT calls the "post-racial society." These covert ways include disenfranchisement through "convicted felon" eligibility rules and the selective enforcement thereof (one of the major tools used to steal the 2000 Presidential "elections;") the so-called "war on drugs," essentially a war on blacks; welfare "reform," and others. The fight against racism goes on, but under different names. Most of America's foreign aggressions are committed against darker-skinned peoples rather than Europeans and are justified in the eyes of many Americans as the killing of mere "ragheads" or, formerly, "gooks." In the absence of widespread racism, America's massacres and atrocities abroad would have found much less acceptance at home.
<<Blacks have as much freedom as the majority, as well as any other "minority". >>
Bullshit. Checked out any prison population stats lately? Blacks are incarcerated at a huge rate compared to whites, and disenfranchised after serving their terms too, in very large numbers. These trends will only increase under racist GOP policies, as will the ethnic cleansing of the Southwest through the anti-immigrant campaign known as "immigration reform." Check out the unemployment stats as well while you're at it. Blacks are fucked up the ass by white racist America, and nobody is doing more than the racist GOP to see that this will continue for as long as they (with major assists from their Uncle Toms) are able to continue it. What's funny is to see how the GOP simultaneously pushes racism under other names and policies, while crowing over the "huge advances" in civil rights, which were a Democratic accomplishment of Democratic statesmen like LBJ and the Democratic Party. That's hilarious.
<<Those that target blacks, or any other minority, with hateful rhetoric, are consistently condemned, and denounced, by all, including tea party folk. >>
Dontcha love how they cleaned up all their racist signs? In the beginning they were at every TP rally, now you really can't find them anywhere. I give the TP high marks for message control. If you don't speak their code, stay away from their rallies. They deal in racist policies, not racist slogans.
<< Those that target a person with vulgar racist rhetoric based on their skin color are equally called out for such. Current saloon patron included>>
sirs, whether you racist GOP like it or not, anti-racists will continue to call an Uncle Tom an Uncle Tom and laugh off the attempts of the real racists to brand others who fight their racism as "racists." It's totally in line with your Bizarro World politics, in which America is a peace-loving democracy that "defends itself" against midget countries with no viable means of defending themselves against, let alone attacking, the USA. Everything in your world is upside-down in relation to the way things really are, so if I'm a "racist" in your eyes, that's perfectly OK with me. Wouldn't have it any other way.
