The UN Will Decide If America Is Racist
 

WTF are they thinking? Why are they in our business anyway? Do they really want the US to pull out of the UN since they get most of their money from us? Here is where your American tax dollars are going people. Pathetic:

Ah who cares. It's just one more thing about the UN to ignore.

Let me save the UN the time and trouble: YES RACISM EXISTS IN AMERICA!

Ok, I've had my moment..

Arent they INVESTIGATING wether racism plays a role instead of being convinced it does?
Dont get me wrong, I think it is a waste of time and money and complete bull****, but the stuff quotes is bull**** aswell.

so what is my question?

The UN studies many many different things. It is one of the primary purposes of the UN.

I think people are making too much out of nothing. It is not like the UN is claiming any election fraud or anything.

The United States has one of the most open and diverse election procedures in the world. For the first time someone other than a white dude is a finalist in the competition.

Of course the UN, and many other NGOs, are going to be studying this election. Why wouldn't they?

Have we become so paranoid that someone studying us has to be bad?

Don't we want the world to study us and learn from our examples?

Much ado about nothing.

Because their is no need of their investigation. Their is 100% chance that their finding was written before the investigation on that the US is racists, even if it is not!

What it really is, is an attempt by the UN to mess with the US election process. That is what it really is.

It'S stupid to reject that racism exists. and it is at least as stupid needing to have a study on it first in order to know it.

Considering a ban on inter-racial marriage was only narrowly lifted by a margin of 60% to 40% in Texas, i imagine it's not going to be favorable.

It amazes me how much the American South sucks. Don't those people still think they were on the right side of the civil war?

Sadly America is VERY racist. If you see it or not, all depends on who you are, where you go, and who you talk to. If your the right color or race, you'll never know it exists.

The other month, my siginficant other made the comment that she'd sooner vote for McCain then elect a black man to the presidency. THAT comment took be completley by surpise, i was stunned. But i shouldnt be surpised, Racism has always existed here, and its never going to go away. Its deep seeded in its roots, and lurks just under the fabric of our society.

I still remember my first duty base, which was in the south. A guy in my shop one day, when it was just the two of us said, "Yeah, when we heard you was coming and read your name on the orders we thought you was gonna be black or something. But... yeah, your a'lright" That comment STUNNED me, I had no idea. At the same point i was releived that i was accepted.


But racism doesnt exist in just the south, it exists here too, and i admit, im kinda bigoted myself. (but at least i realize it) Things like this i get a kick out of because it vents my frustration:

So, yeah, UN has become "Captain obvious" in this regard. And if anyone thinks racism doesnt exist here, they must be living in a bubble.

Is there anywhere racism doesn't exist?

PD

It is one thing to know it exists somewhere. It is another to reconnoiter the extent to which it exists.

Well, hmmm. The US has had 43 Presidents.

All of them were white males.

They're just now starting to figure this out?

I remember about a year ago I was purchasing yet another handgun. :)

On the state form you have to give demographic information including race. Like always I selected Hispanic. The clerk in the gun store looked at my form, looked at me and actually said "I think you made a mistake here. You need to check white".

I looked at him hard and softly asked him if he would feel more comfortable if I wore a sombrero and spoke in broken English.

If I had not already paid for the gun, I would have walked out.

I guess being a successful and educated Hispanic confused him. I guess I am a lucky Hispanic as I can evidently "pass" for a white guy. :nope:

Yeah, racism still exists in America. It is getting a lot better than it used to, but it is still there and will probably always be there.

I too have run across people in my workplace who won't vote for Obama because he is black and won't vote for Clinton because she is a woman.

Go ahead and hate Obama if you disagree with his political agenda but don't base your vote on the colour of his skin.

Go ahead and hate Clinton if you disagree with her political agendas, but don't base your vote on her sex.

Unfortunately we still grow em stupid in America. :down:

The thing is that for every fool who refuses to vote for Obama just because he's black there is another who will vote for him JUST because he IS black. I believe the vast majority of Americans will vote for the guy who they think will do the best job.

Hispanics and Blacks are just as racist as any other group of Americans, yet all too often that is ignored in this country. Whether that says something good or bad about our nation is i guess is a matter of opinion.

>>Hispanics and Blacks are just as racist as any other group of Americans,


This is true, and its also true its overlooked. Best example of that is Latino and Black street gangs bumping each other off in Los Angeles some years back. In some areas you cannot live unless your black or Latino. If your not, the local welcoming committe will let you know your not supposed to be there.

Racism is everywhere. I dont beleive there is a truly, 100% unbigoted person, the only difference between people in terms of bigotry is in how much of a bigot one person is compared to the next. Some very minorly, so minor as to be forgiveable, others the poster child of racial hatred who may as well be claiming membership in the black panthers, or various skinhead groups.
