This isn't meant as a offense. But what race are you?

Split from Favorite MGS Character Topic in General Metal Gear Discussion.
I dont see why that matters. But I'm white. That has nothing to do with anything, just because I support a black revolutionary leader doesnt mean I have to be black. I have been a victim of police hazing, nothing close to consent of the black community. But that shouldnt matter cause I want to live in a country where everyone is treated as equals and if that isnt going to happen then I'm going to fight for it. If you are taking someones else shit, then you are taking my shit. Know what I mean?

Dude, don't go off. I don't care if your white, black, Mexican, Japanese etc. or what you support, its NOTHING wrong with someone white supporting a black leader.

I completely agree.

I'm not racist at all, but what really pisses me off is Blacks/Mexicans(whites some, but mostly blacks and mexicans), constantly think YOU owe them something. I mean, its a free country but blacks, and mexicans(not just them, but i notice them the most in the area i live) sort of expect to be treated like kings, which is what I have a problem with........

I didnt go off. Sorry if It seemed like I did. But there had to be a reason why you asked so I guessed and tryed to answer it.

Really? Blacks and Mexicans act like they owe you something? Do you know all blacks and mexicans? Cause if you do, you are right to sterotype.

No They act like the WORLD owes THEM something.

Quote:

No, thats why I singled out with MOST AROUND HERE, I never once said "All Blacks and Mexicans are blah blah blah".

Yeah, I know what you meant. Typo by my part.

And I seriously doubt Most around you think that. Unless you live in an area where there are like 10 mexicans but if you live in a bigger area I will believe you when you ask each one seperatly.
I live in a small town, but we aren't short on mexicans, or blacks. They make up probably 40-50% of the population.
So have you asked each on if they think the world owes them something?

No, but your able to tell by peoples attitude what they think alot of the time....

Your probably judging the nice blacks/mexicans that stand around talk to you when you walk by etc. I'm talking about the ones that get in your way forcing you to go around, act like you HAVE to cater to them etc.

I know white people that do that too. I dont really think of it as being a race thing, just that person is a prick and it isnt even racial about it. Do you know for sure that there attitude would be different if they were a different race? I'm sure most of the time the attitude wouldnt change. Maybe thats just my bias that I would like to have an equal world and that nothing is racial.....

I never excluded whites.

It is a racial thing, because I knew a boy that was black, and he even said. That some of his BLACK friends really think that because a long time ago blacks where slaves.

I know. I'm just saying I know white people that do that too.

I know, but all I'm saying is that how do you know every black person thinks that because they were slaves? I know white people who think they should be catered too because they are white. There stupid excuse is because there ancestors were the founders of the United States. Stupid, right?

Don't get me wrong, I hate people who think they should be catered to because of what my ancestors did to there ancestors or vise versa. No matter what colour the skin. Like the whole reperations thing. I mean, do I expect the English to pay me because my scottish ancestors were forced off there land and pretty much forced to Norther Ireland then forced to americia? No I dont because I dont blame someone for what there ancestors did. (Not directed at you, Raiden. Making a point to pretty much everyone who thinks they should be catered too. lol)

Oh thats why I hate Royalty. I mean, they should be pretty much worshiped for doing what? Being born! haha. Yeah. I like Princess Diania(sp?) because she actually did something more then marry into a royal family. (Not exactly having to do with your post but just getting more arguemental views out there.)

Yeah, but the majority is black.

Thats been my point all of the posts >_>

I also hate royalty its so stupid, and people take it so serious at times.

You dont know that. You are just sterotyping and generalizing. Just because you know of two black man who wants to be catered too and one white man who wants to be catered too. Doesnt mean that more blacks think that way. I'm not saying your wrong because I dont know for sure. I'm just saying you are wrong in saying what you said because you have not met ever black man in the U.S. or even your area and if you have. Maybe thats just the area (Where do you live?) but that doesnt mean "Many" blacks think that.

Quote:

Yes, but you are also sterotyping a race.

No, its more then 2, how about OVER half of blacks(in my town, and towns I've visited), act that way. With only about 1/4 whites being able to be NOTICED in my town, yes sure its probably some im misjudging, but its not enough to matter.

Quote:

all i've done is told you have I fill about that type of attitude, and that most BLACKS in my area do it.

You still havnt answered my question, where do you live? And I honestly dont believe you, you will probably deny it but right now, you are talking like someone who in the future is going to join the KKK. "We white dont even get noticed anymore because all the blacks are getting the attention because they are pissed off about slavery." Pretty sure thats how race wars start. But whatever.

Quote:

North Western Tennessee.

Don't believe what?

Pick my posts piece by piece, where ONCE did I make a comment about "Whites aren't given enough respect, the world owes the whites".

Quote:

Yeah it would be, but im NOT even close to using that type of attitude.

"With only about 1/4 whites being able to be NOTICED in my town,"
Read my post again, that was going to I only notice 1/4 WHITES that act like that.

It wasn't, meant to that >_> Which you will see if you read the post again....

That meant, OVER half blacks I see do it, and only about 1/4 whites I see do it/

And by judging it by race you are making it....better?
