Not a surprise really. Even if the kid did say something racist, it would NEVER be OK for a teacher to get the students to beat up the kid. There's punitive guidelines that should be followed. The teacher in this case should be fired ASAP.
But of course, that won't happen. Because the person in question is a so called "minority". And that's the problem, no one will be ever equal if we keep on labeling people. There is no such thing as an "African-American", only Americans or African. You can't be both. It's already hard enough to get by being either called "white" or "black".
But whatever.

I also believe you are both a conscious and unconscious racist yourself.
I want restitution from the black community for the endless racist rapes of white women by black males
I want compensation for that before you get a cent for compensation for slavery.
Get a grip - there are a myriad grounds for racism - from religious belief, social class, nationality, ethnicity to skin colour - many of them are INTRA-RACIAL FORMS OF RACISM where people of the same race racially despise others of the same race eg Africans hate Jamaicans and light skinned blacks do not like dark skinned blacks or light skinned Hindus do not like lower catse dark skinned Hindus .
You are just using one form of racism in this debate because it profits you to do so
My ancestors were Irish.
You ever heard of the Potato Famine ?
Ever heard of white Irish slaves worked to death in the plantations of Jamaica ?
Ever heard lof the forced removal and deportation of poor white people in the British Empire ?
No, because you only care about peddling racial greivances about your own race - which is racism itself.

You are a racist indoctrinated with politically correct anti-white hate with a chip on their shoulder peddling false racial greivances so you can play the race card and gain personal and social benefits you do not deserve solely on the grounds of your own talents or work.
You demean and undermine America and the American Dream.
You should be ashamed of yourself.
As for ther Kurds - I know all about the Kurds.
My mates fought in Iraq to defend the Kurds from the Islamists.
Some of them never came back.
Guess what - they were all white.
You should get down on your knees and thank them every day - as due to them the Kurds are no longer being gassed and slaughtered by Saddam Hussein.

I'm going to make you eat your words, you undercover racist (I spot a superiority complex and extreme ignorance in this one).
oh come on mate... its 2011.. i cant believe people are still spouting this crap these days!!
I can't believe whites are hired over others in 2011. I can't believe people like that exist these days!!(FYI; use either one or three exclamation points - two just makes you look uneducated, also a class or two in reading comprehension and history shouldn't hurt).
if you did a little bit of research instead of listening to this black propoganda, you will see that human beings on every part of this planet have done some awful things to other humans, regardless of race, colour or creed..
Read this well: EVERY wrong doing will be accounted for, there is absolutely no way around this. That is not my opinion that is how this world turns. Or would you say that if someone beat your father today/raped your mom because he/she is of a skin color different than yours, it will be forgotten so easily? You don't think somewhere along the line a person will try to take on the battle for the abused people? Because back then they couldn't defend themselves and nobody ever defended them? This isn't about racism anymore, this is about human nature.
the BS people like you spread is the same BS spread in these extremist camps in the middle east, just in a different form..
Uhuh, nobody in your comfortable place of living spreads extremism huh? You just HAVE to use the middle-east as an example, HUH? Dude, you are see-through.
if we all had a mindset like yours the world would be a constant state of war, everyone would hate everyone and there would never be peace.. and that includes people of the same race and colour..
I sincerely doubt you know my mindset as much as I sincerely doubt you ever took reading comprehension or history classes.
come and live in the real world pal..
I will ask you again; "How does it feel to be white these days?"
Will it go over your head again?
The word originated as a term used in a neutral context to refer to black people, as a variation of the Spanish/Portuguese noun negro, a descendant of the Latin adjective niger, meaning the color "black"
you sound like you have a grudge against white people.. look at your words it is obvious that you are the racist..
you talk about black people not getting jobs... but a black man has the most important job in america..
you go into a rant about how the world turns and black people will never forget their enslavement.. thats a perfect example of black propaganda..
and being from irish heritage, my ancestors had awful things done them by the english, but i still call this country my home and cheer the sports teams.. i dont hold any grudges about what happened in the past.. neihter do my parents..
as i said mate move on and get into the real world.. dont hold grudges about the past and dont be a victim of hate..
oh and to answer your question... it feels good to be a white man in the uk, as im sure it does being a black man.. anyway mate you shouldnt cause a divide by bringing colour into it.. we are all human beings..

Welcome to the real world folks, people hate people.

All of those are better than racist though, aren't they?edit on 5/17/2011 by adigregorio because: To add: or the class who beat him.
Starred as this is exactly what I'm trying to get through to people. Why should we destroy our heritage and cultures due to "hate" when that hate will continue even though? extra DIV

I've heard this so many times before, and each time it's equally as stupid. You do realize, that race isn't a problem right? Religion neither... They're all just scapegoats for human stupidity. Let's say that we're all the same color. We all have the same religious background and cultural upbringing. Let's say that we're all cut from the exact same mold.
That doesn't change how we think. We'll still live in cities. "I'm from New York so inherently I'm better then anyone who's from Georgia!". If we get rid of cities, we'd still live in area's. Even if we find out a way to completely remove any form of identification, we'll still have large people. Tall folks, short folks. People with bigger hands or feet. We'll *always find a way to hate*.
brilliant post.
I think the whole idea of us "all being the same" is racist in itself.
So, if I post that I agree that there is racial profiling against white folks am I going to be labled a "closet racist"?
If I say that spending hours upon days upon weeks upon months upon years looking for a job, that ALWAYS goes to another race...does saying that make me racist?
If I say that I do notice that folks of the same race, seem to "gang up" on folks of other races...does that make me a closet racist?
Or, does all that stuff above, make me OFF TOPIC!
