With all due respect you have failed to look at the facts, How can forensic pathologist determine the race of an individual through skeletal remains without seeing the color of their skin? But yet they do, correct?

Read through every post of this thread and prove me wrong,

Hmm... Considering the white race has caused more calamity and injustice throughout history than all other races combined; I feel it's good riddance. BTW I'm white, but I've just been raised in such an incredibly racist environment(rural Georgia) that I cannot stand it anymore. I for one say good riddance to the white man, and welcome our new caramel skinned brothers.

Apart from what the Chinese have already invented, most other things in use to-day were discovered/invented by whites, so its good riddance to the inventors of the modern world?

Have you ever seen Polynesian people? The women are very beautiful and the men are usually very fit and handsome. They are supposedly a mixture of all the races. If our descendants end up looking like that and end up fighting less becuase there is no "other", I have no problem with it.

Another funny thing i forgot to mention is i wouldn't doubt if most the posters here who are clinging to "whiteness" and wishing to preserve the so called white race are part of the European ethnic groups that were treated like garbage in this country and were segregated precisely because their people weren't viewed as whites,
Its amusing how times change.
I have excellent reading and comprehension skills. Your screename fits you to a T! How the hell is it becoming ''pc'' to be racist and discriminatory towards white guys when YOU'RE the majority and you guys ULTIMATELY run everything in this country, and damn near everywhere else? And don't bring that bullsh!+ up about Obama, because he doesn't run ANYTHING. He receives his orders from WHITE GUYS behind the scenes, and he's merely a figurehead marionette. Your childish, playground insults only show your true state of mind. The majority of posters here said nothing of the sort about being happy the white race disappears. You're an unfunny joke. I bring up my ancestry to prove a point. How the f^@k can I be racist when I have mixed ancestry? You are the racist. My wife is white and our daughter is mixed, so what the f^@k are you babbling about ME exercising racism? Your analogy comparing blacks and the KKK is so stupid, it really doesn't deserve a response. Even if black people felt that way, the numbers just aren't there to be able to pull that off, you intellectual colossus. You seem to think you're some profound ass guy, but, your name says it all, JERK IDIOT. With your line of thinking, if it was up to YOU, I'd still be picking cotton and calling you ''massa''. JERK.

Are you telling me you lack reading or comprehension skills? I know you have access to communications or you would not be on here. Yes I am saying "It is BECOMING PC to be racist and discriminatory against white men." I did NOT say it is full blown yet but heading that way. It started four years ago with Holder. It really showed after Obama won, not by him but by ALL the news organizations and by posters on this site or can you not read very well like I already asked? It is visible in this thread with people saying they are happy or they do not care if the white race disappears. I am not worried about that occurring but the obvious RACISM involved, just change the word white with brown or black and see what happens, is what bothers me. If it does not bother you then you are as bad to me as the KKK was back in the 60's. You are FOR racism so long as it is not you on the receiving end.
As to your ancestry which I notice you keep bringing up in your posts. Do you really think it matters? You apparently do which means that race to you is very important. Race as in color of skin which you keep bringing up equals racism. I bring it up to show hypocrisy, you bring it up as if it is vindication.

Not correct, they determine a probability that some one belonged to a "racial group". This is based off of old ideas. There is more variation inside a so called racial group than between. So making measurements of bones is really a crap shoot.

Determination of a body's race to within the three main races is rather easy and all done from the skull. Pinpointing a specific sub-race is becoming rather difficult though. But amongst the three main races the differences can be seen in the nasal cavity and size and shape of the skull.

Bone density and shape of the femur bone and cranium capacity are all different amongst the 3 main races. That would make those differences biological hence a biological construct.
Also, hormone levels are different amongst the races as is center of gravity and muscle types (ie. fast twitch and slow twitch) All of those are biological differences which are different amongst the races making race a biological construct.

Care to cite what year that idea was proposed? Because it no longer holds water.
