Because it is nothing more than a shtick. It is no different then republicans using abortion as their pulpit or democrats doing the same with gun rights.
Hate is hate regardless of what color you are and therefore prejudice and racism are the same thing. They are both hate. Terms such as racism are nothing more than a gimmick to divide our country. There is no such thing as African American, Native American, or (insert country) American. We are all American and that is all we should be. And picking a side on this matter does nothing but further self segregate us.

It's not a shtick, you just said you hate the people that bullied you, so what if you lived in a country that had a system set up to bully you, don't be silly and naive

"FACEPALM" It hasn't been that way in years and most of the people that were treated that way are dead. That would be like me hating the gov for giving my ancestors small pox blankets, attempted genocide, and slavery. Yes Indians were also slaves, just not to the same extent.

Edited by Bad Wolf: 3/10/2015 9:55:34 PM*Facepalm,* That's exactly the point, most of them aren't dead, the civil rights movement officially ended what in the early 70's ,what you think all the racist white people taking their kids to watch lynchings suddenly all just saw the light, you think all the black folks that had to live through such times suddenly just forgot, you think a biased system decades in the making suddenly just went poof, don't be stupid and naive, worse it's -blam!-ing patronizing to black people who still have to deal with the effects of such a -blam!-ed up system today. Things like disproportionate arrests and sentencing, racial profiling, employment bias, miss me with all your post racial America bullshit. And no it would be like you hating the government for all the bullshit native Americans still go through today as a biased of a flawed system centuries in the making.

And there is the shtick in its full glory! I'm done.

Edited by Bad Wolf: 3/11/2015 11:23:18 AMYeah the shtick, because the disproportionate arrests and sentencing is all an illusion, there haven't been studies showing that, or studies showing how there is a bias in employment against black people, yes the shtick, get the -blam!- out of your dipshit.

Yeah, miss me with all that bull
