Obama assassination plot

I believe the phrase "took one for the team" would be appropriate here.

Rob, the reason we have have a lot of problems in the world still is simple. Education, or more specifically, lack thereof. Not just school education, but education from parents, the community, and so on. More and more parents are dumping their kids in daycare or what have you and then going to work all day or going out with friends, and as a result the kids end up not picking up the kind of stuff they should at an early age. Of course, there are also the times where the education is the problem... and unfortunately not a lot can be done about that, short of hunting down redneck couples and forcibly sterilising them so they can't feed their kids bullshit (oh please God let this become law).

Most schools and other "places of learning" tend to avoid topics of race, and religion (unless it is focusing on one specific religion ie: christian schools) for fear of offending someone (and subsequently getting bombed) but really look around at what's happened in the past. The regular dumbfuck who goes and blames his bad marks, loss of a job, etc etc, on white people. The school system then decides that they want to avoid bullshit like this (really cant blame them), so they tend to leave the educating of race and religion to the parents. Most of which are either too busy to teach their kids about it, and when they do teach their kids every kid will get a different bit of knowledge from their parents, simply because parents tend to have radically different views on all these things. Some are racist, some are as scared as the school boards to talk about it.

Personally I think it would work best to get a group of people who perfectly balance out anyone elses biasses, to make a strict curriculum concerning the history of slavery, all the way to current events.

But hey what are the chances of that happening :awesome:

I couldn't agree more, ross.

I could.

Where is this thought that most black people scream racist at their own faults to white men come from? People don't do that, at least not anymore. I see alot of people on these forums claim we call people "crackers" but go ballistic when they call us "niggers". We don't call white people "crackers" out of the blue unless they themselves are racist to whites. Usually these assumptions aren't valid anymore.

BTW not aimed at this post. Just clearing some thoughts.

Hate is legal in the US, just not hate-crimes.


Also, I would hope it's a given that the source of hatred is ignorance. There is nothing to fear in something you know well. There is also the fetishism of near-differences, but that's almost always rooted in greed, not hated.

Also, this is what I have to say to you deniers of racism.

Mass, what the fuck is wrong with you, of course hate is legal. This country is founded on the concept that people are allowed to hate, love, think, say whatever they want, so long as they don't act on it. Hence, legal hate but not legal hate-crime. I mean, duh.

You can't be serious? "Real fears of racism..." WHAT A F*CKING JOKE! Nobody worth anything really gives a shit that he's got some black in him from somewhere...the only people that hate him for that are complete morons that probably don't have the IQ to operate a voting booth or ballet.

And courage? this makes me laugh...courage to run for presidency yeah, but not because of his ethnicity.

GOD I hate political correctness and brainwashing like this...racism isn't nearly as common as people make it out to be...

sorry guys...

Wrong, sorry. The experiences we went through when my dad taught and coached at Fort Wayne Community High School is plenty enough to prove you wrong. There was even an incident where two of my dad's (black) football players were arrested for really no other reason than being black in a white neighborhood.

In some places it's better, but it's really not as uncommon as you think.

Actually, considering I've never heard a skinhead something in public that wasn't "fighting words" it's debatable whether their speech rights are really protected or ought to be.

I really don't think the NSM has a right to protest, let alone exist.

Not to mention this country is supposed to give
“To Bigotry No Sanction,
to Persecution No Assistance”

I'm pretty sure Mr. Washington knew something about what this country was founded on, Rob.
