to realize that we were all put on this earth by one creator and that NO ONE in this world is indispensable and we are somehow all related as I only know of Adam and Eve....so I have to think we evolved from our mother and father but then you have still KKK and white supremist God forbid they should be told we are related and then you also have the nasty attitude of Spanish people wanting to CHANGE AMERICA...so until we all realized that we ARE BORN, WE GROW, WE HAVE CHILDREN WE RAISED THEN WE DIE AND IT GOES ON AND ON...and we teach them to respect and LOVE ONE ANOTHER...its hard to tell if it would ever stop....Good Blog

one more note...I also thought it was unjustified that in the case of Jena 6 wherein six afr-american beat on a single white male and when the racism was reverse...OF COURSE, GOOD OLD SHARPIE...tried to interfere...and that was not right...Had it been the other way around six white agains one afro-american...BOY..WE STILL BE HEARING ABOUT THE ABUSE.......so you see my friend..we live in a very unperfect world......and only time would tell what's in our future....frankly, I think its going to get worst before it gets better and that would be WHEN THE BEGINNING OF THE END...comes to pass as it is written.....o.k. bye bye

Yeah, what candy said.

Good morning candy.

If knowing about the past would change our future, then why are we still having wars? Why are we still having riots? Why can't we all just get along?

I'm nicer than any one on here, just ask? LOL

Candy's nice, too. She gets intense and passioned, a lot.

Don't work to hard candy. I think you are great!

And what are the news guys to say when describing someone?

"The suspect has dark hair, dark eyes, and an afro. Back to you, Burritto."

Gotten better!? No way... It's definitely getting worse. Inflation and the economy are driving up slave prices, and they're doing less work than ever before! I'm lucky to get an hour of decent work for twenty bucks!

Racism will never die. Get over it. We're different, that's a fact, and there's nothing wrong with it.

Yes, dicksforbrains, how did you get away with having the name dicksforbrains? I think dicksforbrains is kinda crazy but if you want your name to be dicksforbrains then i guess dicksforbrains it is.

hey dick are you black. how you doing my brother from another mother wuz up. aren't you being kinda hasty. nobody is saying nothing is wrong with you are blacks racism doesn't only relate to blacks so get over it..illegal immigrants, spanish people and white people are also victims of racism..so you get a life and get a decent name for crying out loud.

and imus....you forgot jesse jackson ran for president quite sometime ago...HELLO WHERE DO YOU PEOPLE COME FROM

If we knew 200 years ago what we know now, we would have picked our own cotton!

Better,Yes,and BIGOTS will be BIGOTS wherever they reside worldwide. There was a Dade Co. sheriff,Vogel I believe, that was accussed of Racial Profiling to arrest criminals,predominately those in the drug trade. Did some innocent people get stopped or briefly detained,yes. Did he catch criminals,confiscate drugs, seize large amounts of cash and unregistered loaded weapons YES. Some 80% of those stopped, if I recall correctly. But was it racial profiling? Or was it something different, another term? Maybe : judgement by association ? If a dealer was standing at a street corner dispencing his goods and a crowd was gathered around, wouldn't that close association give probable grounds to check them all out ? Are there not actions,work and social behavior associated with lawfull pursuits ? Are there not opposites associated with illegal pursuits ? Who or how do you determine the difference ?

The last questions in reguards to terms describing the type of action. You hear mention that there is a disportionately larger percentage of minorities in jails and prison for ALL types of crime. Is it possible that in catching criminals or felons, that the percentages accurately reflect exactly who is committing the crime ?

My children had many friends of different races, religions, and sexual preferences.
As a child I had the same thing. My father had the same.
Racism is taught. As long as people like Sharpton, Jackson and the media can make a living off of it, it will exist.
If you have money to spend and don't cause trouble, almost all stores don't care what you look like.

plOp25, I already knew the question to that answer as well. I just wonder why the press forwards the idea of disporportionate corrections population ? To hear them talk you would be lieve innocent minorities are rounded up to take the place of the actual felons. It flies in the face of all of the facts. The people in prisons are those caught in the commission of felonies, that is just a plain simple fact !
