"If you're white, you're racist and don't realize it"

Yup, at least they finally came out and said what a lot of liberals have been thinking.

Well at least I know, now. I was worried that I was a racist and didn't know it.

Jeez their twitter is a hot mess, everything is 100% negative. Not surprised though.

In order to stir up hate and conflict to divide people on issues necessitates that it be 100% negative.

Reminds me that a couple of days ago I saw a report on the black kid at UVA who was roughly arrested.
The reporter interviewed a black female student who said (I paraphrase): "As long as UVA celebrates the slave owning Thomas Jefferson as its founder, then UVA will be supporting racism. All statues and any mention of Jefferson should be removed from the campus."

Let's just erase all of white history. We'll use the date of MLK's "I have a dream" speech as the year zero, and take it from there. So we're in year 52. Nothing happened before 1963.

Talk like this is why people get shot for fun walking their dog and punched in the face while riding the train.

All the enabling by self hating and guilty white liberals has led to this. And be aware that we are starting to see people get attacked just for being white.

Too bad some of the board's libs are on vacation, as I wonder how they would respond.
Do they stick to the party line and admit they are racist?
Or do they try to argue they are not racists and by doing so, admit their racism.
'Tis a puzzelment.

They would acknowledge their privilege and say that such an admission proved they were self aware enough to be good people.

I have enough of my own problems. I can no longer be the blame for the rest of the country's problems.

That's your privilege speaking. What you perceive as problems would be a vacation to those that you have spent a lifetime oppressing simply by being white.
I say that in jest of course, this idiot that made such a statement really shouldn't be afforded any opportunity to speak and misinform the public.

Thank God it's the weekend. I've been oppressing minorities all week and I'm exhausted.

Am I racist? Sure. Thugs and the thug mentality, black, white, or whatever color, are dumb and are the reason for a lot of crime. If you lead a respectable lifestyle or at least try to better yourself with what advantages or opportunities you had or lacked I will respect you.

Not sure if you understand the concept of being racist. If you don't respect someone for being a 'thug' regardless of their race, then you aren't racist.

It's more of a jab at those that say you're racist if you call people thugs or whatever. I'm not a fan of city folk or yuppies either.
