That's good. I'm not trying to get you to show that you can respect someone no matter what color their skin is, rather I'm trying to get you to understand in a deeper way how you can never know exactly what it's like for what you or I might call a "disadvantaged" person. Sure it's bad to knowingly take advantage of a system (i.e. slacking at work since no one is watching or having a bunch of kids to get more welfare money (and even that is a long term commitment)) but where there is a deliberate or unintended yet unchecked void in that system that could easily be filled by means of better education or opportunity, you can't blame it entirely on the ones who take advantage of that void. And although it may indeed be deliberate (such as a lack of supervision or instruction or what have you) it may be hard to perceive and therefore hard to overcome.

So, when you say, "These niggers need to get over themselves and realize THEY are they ones causing problems in their lives, not us whities. THEY are the reason racism still exists." I think you are not seeing the whole picture. And it is most definately not as black and white, so to speak, as you are making it seem. There are many many facets to situations like that. Also, I understand that there are actually black people who believe crazy stuff like that, but that's just people. There are insane white people too. Every color of human has some group that just hates others without understanding them. I want people on this website to be a little more advanced than that.

Do you get why I said my piece now?
