But you are one of those people who insist that only one group can be racist and everything another group must be racist. You call any criticism about Obama "racist." You are one of the biggest players of the race card on this site. You are part of the problem.
I call out racism from any side, do you?

Talking about racism is not pulling the race card. Its a real thing that takes place in this world of ours.
It exists and it is a factor. Just like all those that are calling this a racial motivated attack.
Why are they not chastised as pulling the 'race card' or being called 'race baiters'?
That is a better solution than sitting back and blaming "whitey" or capitalism.

I agree with the war on drugs.
Putting people in prison without looking at the real issues isn't the answer.
Putting people in prison while addressing the real issues is.

I do. If it is real racism, everything you claim as being racism is not racism. Contradicting Obama on his policies is not racist and you are being very disingenuous about that.

Flame away for this, as it it will be pretty open to the flame.
But who was the man that started the war on drugs? Was it not a white male very found of capitalism?

Will it be hard for you to admit that a percentage of the Obama haters, hate based on race?

OP Thanks for posting this. I have friends of all colors. What happened with this family is unacceptable and I believe may or may not have been racially motivated.
I can speculate tho that because the family was white and refused to move to the back of the bus, they were thought of as acting superior or better than the other races present on the bus. I believe this is where the anger came from...lets not forget that being forced to the back of the bus was a big deal for a while with african american folks.
Perhaps this is where the anger originated from the bus driver?
I can tell you this: Racism is the most ignorant thing in the world.
I myself am a white eastern european. Today I was walking my dog and came across 3 black highschool kids who were sitting on a bench. We exchanged hellos and proceeded to introduce ourselves and ended up having a really cool discussion on conspiracy's on the coming world war, chem-trails, etc. Turned out to be some really cool intelligent kids.
I guess what im trying to say that all races have their bad apples but being a racist is super duper ignorant no matter if your black or white, yellow or purple. Whats inside is what counts, we all have to get out there and interact with each other, and we will soon quickly realize we all have the same loves, fears, dreams. We are all the same folks.
OG
Bull#, They couldn't move to the back of the bus because it was packed and the bus driver was being racist about it.

I somewhat agree, not a fan of jessie or al, I would agree they do more damage then they stop.
I agree with what they do, just not how they do it.
Just saying if we can talk about black people being racist with out the terms 'race card' and 'race baiting' getting tossed around every other post, why is it not the same when it is flipped?
