    Stamp out the archaic drivel 'race' and deal with something real instead.

    I was alive in the day of MLK. Were you or did you learn of the day in History class ?
    I do NOT believe he would approve of the Black racist leadership displayed by Al, Jesse and Barack/Barry too.
    For example: The murder of a minor is a horrible thing. Regardless whether it is white on black, black on white, black on black - the most common.
    Today's Black leadership only counts a horrible thing as the murder of a Black minor by a White person.
    I have not heard them express otherwise. Have You ?

    Exactly what part of the above do you disagree. Or see as falsely representing MLK?

    There's a simple way to deal with "race relations".

    The Equal Protection Clause says all people must be treated equally under the law. Therefore there's no need for race-based law. That means no "EEOC", no "Affirmative Action", no race-based college entrance questions, and no insistence that test questions are racist because there's a statistical happenstance that one race scores less than another. There's also not "hate-crime/thought-crime" laws.

    In effect, someone puts a bag on law so it can't see the color of the offender.

    Someone shoots a punk that attacked him on the street? The law should treat the case as if it was a punk that got shot on the street, and make no distinction if it's a black punk or a white punk, and make no distinctions about the color of the citizen defending himself...AND the (*)(*)(*)(*)ing racist president from Kenya keeps he empty-headed race-baiting flap shut, too.

    It's not difficult. Everyone who isn't a politician and who is too intelligent to vote for Obama are tired of the same old race-baiting ploys the people who are stupid enough to vote for Obama pretend are important topics of the day. So stop focusing on irrelevancies and simply put the criminals in jail. The race of a convicted murderer isn't important, so long as he's quickly executed.

    Actually, there's many valid reasons to send the illegal aliens back home....and nobody can list a single valid reason to keep those criminals here. It ain't xenophobia, it's called "nobody invited them to our party, call the cops and get rid of them".

    Openly yes.

    But if we are just looking for people to back up our own BS then its not really open eh?

    Most of us form an opinion of others quickly from the way they appear. Race and ethnicity obviously play a part in that. If we are just spouting drivel to convince others that our prejudice is justified, and shout down dissenters, then openness defeats its own purpose.

    Thank you for your reply,
    Yet we have a misunderstanding here. I simply said that I have never seen someone that denied that racism exists. I didn't say that their weren't any racists.
    Jon Stewart? What is a Jon Stewart? I do not watch any news shows or any pundits. I don't even listen or watch people on TV that I agree with. I watch cooking and nature shows.

    Respectfully,

    I think it should be dealt with openly and honestly. If it is kept bottled up then how are the issues ever going to be dealt with?

    I agree. Respect is a very important part of any sort of conversation.
