"You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction.
You call me "Whiteboy," "Cracker," "Honkey," "Whitey," "Caveman"?and that's?OK.

But when I call you, ******, Kike, Towelhead, Sand-******, Camel Jockey, Beaner, Gook, or Chink you call me a racist.

You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you, so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live?

You have the United Negro College Fund.

You have Martin Luther King Day.

You have Black History Month.

You have Cesar Chavez Day.

You have Yom Hashoah

You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi

You have the NAACP.

You have BET.

If we had WET(White Entertainment Television) we'd be racists.

If we had a White Pride Day you would call us racists.

If we had white history month, we'd be racists.

?

If we had an organization for only whites to "advance" our lives, we'd be racists.

If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships, you know we'd be racists.

There are over 60 openly proclaimed Black Colleges in the US, yet if there were "White colleges" that would be a racist college.

In the Million Man March, you believed that you were marching for your race and rights. If we marched for our race and rights, you would call us racists.

You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you're not afraid to announce it. But when we announce our white pride, you call us racists.

You rob us, carjack us, and shoot at us.? But, when a white police officer shoots a black gang member or beats up a black drug-dealer running from the law and posing a threat to society, you call him a racist.

I am proud.

But, you call me a racist.

Why is it that only whites can be racists?? There is nothing improper about this email.? Let's see which of you are proud enough to forward it "

Yup - because this mess hasn't already been discussed ad nauseum...

I'm not racist, I don't care about most of the above.

So the idea to create a thread about it came from where, exactly???

'Tard.

Yes.

You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you, so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live?

They are not. I guess it depends on who you are. If a black man lives in a predominantly white neighborhood, he increases his risk of being harassed by his neighbors and police. That to me poses a dangerous situation. Most ghettos are calm at night. Black people aren't as bad as you think they are.

You have the United Negro College Fund.

You have Martin Luther King Day.

I guess you don't know that over 70% of TV programming is for white people.

If we had a White Pride Day you would call us racists.

There is no black pride day.

If we had white history month, we'd be racists.

White people don't have any history with exception of the presidents. Even that is questionable. Blacks are the one's that made our country civilized. You may want to read up on that.

If we had an organization for only whites to "advance" our lives, we'd be racists.

You don't need one. What's funny is the blacks don't need one either. There are plenty of successful people willing to offer their advice about how to get success both to whites and blacks alike.

If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships, you know we'd be racists.

You do have some.

There are over 60 openly proclaimed Black Colleges in the US, yet if there were "White colleges" that would be a racist college.

There are "White Colleges" They're called Ivy League.

In the Million Man March, you believed that you were marching for your race and rights. If we marched for our race and rights, you would call us racists.

Louis Farakkan is a Muslim. Since when do whites have a Muslim leader to lead them to do such stupid things? By the way, the Million Man March was not about race and rights. It was sort of a pep talk trying to get black men to be more responsible. I'm sure if you read more you would see that.

You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you're not afraid to announce it. But when we announce our white pride, you call us racists.

Not true at all, its when you form organizations and produce hate crimes against other races that they call you racist.

You rob us, carjack us, and shoot at us.? But, when a white police officer shoots a black gang member or beats up a black drug-dealer running from the law and posing a threat to society, you call him a racist.

Again not true, its when white police officers shoot a man 46 times for reaching into his back pocket to get his ID that they call him racist.

I am proud.

It would seem on a forum where the average member has the attention span of a 3 year old that conciseness would be applauded.

Hey Altoz,

I can argue a few things.

There are more minorities in the Ivy League than white people that attend HBCU. You forget that that there are more minorities than just blacks. It most paradigms, there are whites and then everyone else is a minority.

Hey flix help me understand the different rotations involved in a component analysis.

I have a very primitive understanding of factor analysis in general so keep that in mind.

A heuristic is a way of thinking about a topic which is convenient even if not absolutely true.

At first, I didn't see where the article applied.

Actually, I still don't. My comment can be challenged by empirical evidence.

I see. Nice way to switch the gears on me. I wonder if it was cirumstantial that I found a sentence that applied.

From the looks it's one of those things I could memorize, repeat, and make an A, yet not fully understand.

My understanding drops out around "rotation" but luckily picks back up around "Principal Component Analysis".

Yeah that might be possible, except the majority of the class will be applying it to data we collected last semester and interpreting it in one big paper to be entered into a student paper competition.

Memorizing wont suffice and neither will understanding. Coherent application and interpretation is key.
