What do u think about this email I got today?
Question:
Answer:
I understand both sides.
I agree with it!! It's right on target!!
i believe he is right...
You got that in an e-mail?
And no, I DON'T agree with it.
dont agree with it...how come its meant for black people!!not just black carjack,beat up,e.t.c whites!! some whites beat up their own race! and i didnt like the part when it said are the ghettos the most dangerous place to live...ther is no such thing only blacks live in ghettoS!!im white and that e-mail is stupid
all completely true
I really wish we could stop the hatred & predjudice in this country ... It is just so sad to me.
i think it kinda makes sence but at the same time the some of the black communtity (because not all live in the ghetto) have got the hardened personality cuz they have to to survive i know milwaukee really aint nothin to a lot of other places but it can get hard and ive seen that so i guess yes both can be racist but the person who wrote this didnt seem to think this all through maybe tthey didnt know what these places are like and never been there cuz it aint all lets kill eachother and call eachother names there are good things tryin to be happening too
I guess he has some good points, but on the other hand, my ancestors weren't the ones executed by the millions in Nazi slave camps, nor were they working their asses of in the cotton fields in the 1800s. There's a strong, negative economic correlation between being white and being poor; a lot of organizations that exist to benefit blacks are just trying to even things out.
Besides, I have never been called a racist. This guy obviously has, and I think he's trying a little too hard to rationalize some of his own attitudes and behaviors.
And to top it all off, it's probably not what you wanted to see in your inbox. Spam!
i m neither a black nor a white.but i understand that some sections of the society hav been opressed by our forefathers and it is ethical for us to provide them some opportunities,meant exclusively for them, to progress and come to par with the others.i agree with u that not everybody's a racist and people should stop calling a guy like u gave the example of a policeman a racist, but u should understand about the college funds and stuff.we have to undo the opression done by our forefathers.
I would really be interested to know what others think of this subject, as an overweight white woman I have been called many names, looked down upon, sneered at and most times just ignored...prejudice is everywhere not just in race.
i think that it's some white man's macho-insecurity praying on other self-conscious, needy, young, white males. I definitely think that it's completely ridiculous to think that "the white man 'ain't given nothin' but his white skin" and because of this, white people mistake it for superiority, but it is in fact nothing but diversity.
This has a lot of truth to it. i can honestly say I was not a racist, until I lived among the blacks. I was always of the principle that you should hate a man for who he is, not what he is, but it becomes extremely difficult when exposed to the lifestyles and habits around me.
I hear all the time among blacks that other blacks are "acting white", or anytime a situation seems unfair, race is thrown out as a justifiable reason.
In the city where I lived, the Italians were prominent for years. Yes there were problems, but the lawns were mowed, and the streets were safe. Now its overrun, and you wouldn't dare live there or invest in a home.
Its sad that a race can deteriorate any area they live, and are okay with it.
Regrettably, I totally agree with the email.
I agree with it. Blacks have all those things set up to help give them a better life, but the vast majority do not work for it. They would rather take the easy way out and become drug dealers because they think that that is all they can do. I do not believe that I have a racist bone in my body. I treat all man equally. I don't hate blacks, only drug dealers and gang members. That goes for whites, blacks, Mexicans, ETC. But it is true that if we as whites try to do anything like the things listed here it is considered racist. I wish it was not like this but it is. I have never used any racist slurs but have had them used on me. But most blacks will use the racial card to get them out of trouble. If a white person tried that they will be marked as a racist. A black does it the ACLU are all over people. I am not saying all blacks for I now some decent blacks. But the large majority make the hole race look bad. Something needs to be done about them. If more stay in school instead of on the streets they can have a great life, in a great neighborhood, with a great house. B but most give up or do not even try. Then they blame it on the whites. I am not trying to offend anyone and I hope that I do not, but if I do I am very sorry. This is just how I feel. Blacks have more things set up to help them then whites do and they do not take advantage of it, and they should.
umm, well i am white... actually, i am an american. I dont dicriminate at all! i think its bull sh1t.
there two stereo types i hear of a lot, and in some way, acoording all my friends (of all races) are in some way agreeable.
there are the white people vs. the white trash
there are mexicans (hispanics) vs. wet backs
and there are black people vs ******$.
Yes its wrong to stereo type the good vs. the bad.
i love all ppl no matter their race, heritage, religion, size or gender..
But we have to admit, we think white ppl living in trailors doing drugs and stealing/using people are just trashy!
we think that mexicans who come here not knowing one word of english and having babies at 13 are just plain idiots and NEED to go back to mexico.
And. we think black people who dont know how to shut up, and are 76% affiliated with "gangs" are ghetto...
I think its all bull like i said, but you have to admit, stereotypes didnt just get made up, everyone in the world is stereotyped.
anyways, i think the e-mail is 50% true.
