    I guess we should become a communist or socialist society. Then I can share my immense wealth that was just handed to me because I'm white.

    I AM SORRY THAT YOU GOT A RAW DEAL.

    Feel better now?

    Nice straw man argument. Did you read the article?

    Did the article suggest that anybody was handed immense wealth?
    Who was talking about communism?
    Who suggested every white person is rich?

    But I'll accept your concession on the matter, however difficult it was for you to say. Now maybe we can start arguing about something that isn't so blatenly obvious about who controls the money and power.

    What sucks is I'm white, not rich and I can't dance either. Man, I should have paid more attention in my business courses at UH.

    According to the commecial, reggae and Red Stripe will cure my dancing problem.

    Yeah I read it.

    The whole discussion has been about white privilege and you have gone on and on about how white people have so much more money than everyone else.

    You obviously want everyone on the exact same playing field so why don't we go to a society where everyone is exactly the same.

    See your next quote below.

    That's like saying all muslims are terrorist. A very minute percentage has that kind of wealth.

    And all this time I thought the D & D was a place to let your anger out. If we were all happy, we'd spend all our time in the poop and pee threads in Hangout.

    Whites actually make up about 67% of the population, according to the estimate of the US Census. I don't know where one could find racial data on the ownership of property.

    This thread is amazing. It never ceases to amaze me how much people are willing to blame others for their lot in life.

    Grow up and make something of yourself.

    As an aside, I've taken Jensen's class.

    In class he seems normal enough and not at all a loon. However, when you read some of his articles you have to wonder.

    This is the same guy who said that we shouldn't celebrate Thanksgiving and that the Cranberry Sauce represented the blood of Indians.

    That logic seems sort of off, even though I don't like Cranberry Sauce.

    He might have an arguement on Columbus Day though since that is when the conquest of the Americas really started.

    "What's your policy on Columbus Day?"

    "We work."

    "The guy discovered the new world!"

    Sorry couldn't help myself. :p

    I wasn't talking about Jensen. I was talking about some of the people posting in this thread.

    like who, who personally blamed anyone else for their place in life, no one

    no one has complained about their life in this thread.

    it never ceases to amaze me when race threads come up, and people make baseless accusations, on both sides.
