If I dislike most blacks am I racist? I respect blacks like Bill Cosby, Walter Williams, Thomas Sowell, Condi Rice, etc. but I avoid most blacks and hispanics because of their culture. Their cultures are what holds them back, not racism. I might add that most hispanics hate blacks and don't even try to keep it secret.Cutshoothttp://cutshoot.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31302812.post-2600205372722992822010-01-11T10:37:42.717-08:002010-01-11T10:37:42.717-08:00Very nicely written and reasoned piece.

Few realize that when Strom Thurmond died, his wife called Joe Biden and told him that Thurmond had requested that Biden deliver the eulogy at his funeral.<br /><br />If you want to watch something fascinating, watch Biden talking about this from the Senate floor shortly after Thurmond's death.<br /><br />The reason that society is incapable of addressing the racial issue is because we view it from a perspective which is not conducive to real analysis. We talk all around the fundamental, underlying reasons for racism, and make it an emotional issue. How does one expect to cure the cancer without focusing on the cancerous cells and the biological reasons for cancer? Focusing on the symptoms is an ineffective mechanism to employ. <a href="http://tinyurl.com/aq4cdb" rel="nofollow">Racism serves a far more complex pragmatic function than we are generally willing to acknowledge</a>.Inspector Clouseauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09373932797333038561noreply@blogger.com
