Then why would I believe such a thing? Cause I get the feeling you pulled the whole thing out of your ass. Seem to know an awful lot about something you can't state the origins of for other people to have a look. Liar.

It's just a documentary about Black History. Are you really that paranoid? Where the hell do you normally get information about Black History(which you claim to know so much about)???

I like how people on here have been trying to make me look stupid. But the efforts are futile. I'm far from stupid. Anyway here are several definitions to equal : 1.) of the same measure, quantity, amount, or number as another 2.) like in quality, nature, or status 3.) not showing variation in appearance, structure, or proportion So when you claim to know of a study that says that Blacks and Whites are genetically different my response is no we're all equal. As in we're all the same. Where is this study? What argument of mine is absurd. Because I know what I"m talking about. Where is your rebuttal besides trying to dismiss my points as "absurd".I know about the Blacks history here in America, Africa, and I'm even familiar with the racism Blacks have had to deal with in the UK. And I don't buy into the myth that Abraham Lincoln was this great guy that tried to free the slaves so we could live free. As far as my husband goes this is what I copied and paste from like six inches above you dude: "My husband LITERALLY had someone try and tell him that Black people weren't the same species as White people. And he said he didn't say it in an angry moment or anything. He earnestly believed that" Where does it say anything about the internet?? And how about you just don't know as much as you think you know. My mother in law said her mother went out of her way to SHOW her the sign a business had put up when she was younger. It said No Dogs, No Niggers and No Irish. Her mother told her to never forget that. And do I really need to tell you that I brought up interacting with people in person because you obviously seemed to be assuming he was on the internet for whatever reason. I've looked back at the post twice now. I have NO idea where you would get that from. You're not as smart as you're trying to make yourself out to be.

That's totally not what I'm taking issue with. I'm taking issue with the genetic part. That's why I want to read this "study" for myself. Where is it located?

Celtic to be exact. This whole website is just ridiculous spin and I can tell from the posts that this and Fox are probably you guys only source for info. And why would you call me Ina when the last word in my name is Reina??

Go rent "500 Years Later" and get back to me. It's streaming on Netflix. And why are you speaking as if you haven't seen the whole video or have heard about the whole video.

And how do I obviously not know the history of Black people? And did you really think you were schooling me just now with the Irish thing? My husband is CELTIC. I've participated in Irish traditions. I know all about the discrimination Irish people faced. My mother in law was there. And my husband can barely type. He still pecks. Neither he nor I have ever heard of anything called Stormfront. Some people still actually interact with people in person.

And yes it's obvious you don't use Facebook. You can't reply to individual comments on Facebook like you can here. You CALL THE PERSON OUT when you post because otherwise it's not obvious who you are posting to. Usually the first name since PEOPLE USE THEIR REAL NAMES ON IT. Lol why I hate Jews lol. Good one.

I explained it. Believe what you want. I don't care. And by all the revelations that came after the the video came out, no. She didn't deserve to be forced to resign.

Just used to Facebook comments. Set up differently.

I assumed you were Jewish. We're talking about race. Subconscious thing. You're implying that I'm racist because you're assuming that for whatever reason I'm one of those people who breaks up White people into smaller divisions. No. Just went with the word that stood out. I"m still confused about why White people don't like Jews. Or Irish people(who on the hierarchy of exclusion posters back in the day over here were on the bottom wrung.). By the way Black gal doesn't offend me. I'm Black. I"m assuming you're trying to throw something back in my face, but black isn't a dirty word to me. I assumed Jew wouldn't be a dirty word to you since it's IN YOUR NAME. Lol I didn't say it was right. Hate is hate and it should be a goal for a person to never engage in it. But that being said I think that one is WORSE than the other. On the one hand you have people that are defensive because of negative experiences. As a Black person, when you first experience racism its kind of jarring. And on the other hand you have people that literally think of a whole block of people are subhuman. My husband LITERALLY had someone try and tell him that Black people weren't the same species as White people. And he said he didn't say it in an angry moment or anything. He earnestly believed that. You tell me which is worse. Do they really seem the same to you?

They wanna hear the NAACP is racist, Acorn stole the elections, unions are evil, Obama is a commie and the whole country is going to shit because of Obama and every single solitary thing he does is wrong. That's SERIOUSLY what this sight seems to be all about. I thought Huffington Post was bad it's biased...this is just a whole nother level :/. Wed, 21 Jul 2010 05:19:28 +0000 http://biggovernment.com/jdunetz/2010/07/20/naacp-blames-fox-and-breitbart-for-the-naacps-overreaction-to-shirley-sherrod-video/#IDComment87818350 http://biggovernment.com/jdunetz/2010/07/20/naacp-blames-fox-and-breitbart-for-the-naacps-overreaction-to-shirley-sherrod-video/#IDComment87817441 Give me a break. What IS proof then? Cause to the people who point out the racism, calling for literacy tests to be reinstated(which in case you didn't know were originally used to keep Blacks from voting), pretty much everything Mark Williams has ever said, the witch doctor signs, the testimony from people who say they have been to rallies and heard nigger thrown around pretty casually, I mean WHAT will it take. And let's look at the taxation code thing. The Tea Party is supposed to stand for Taxed Enough Already. They were initially reported to have gotten together to protest taxes...but Obama LOWERED taxes for 95% of Americans. When a poll was taken only 12% even recognized that their taxes had been lowered. There was a rally held a few months ago protesting the government taking away 2nd Amendment rights(I mention this because Tea Party members showed up to show solidarity. ) But the whole reason they were able to even have their rally is because Obama had recently signed a piece of legislation expanding gun rights to include the ability to have guns in parks. And regarding the economy. Debt wasn't new. The debt was ridiculous BEFORE Obama came into office. So where were they then? Grown ass people, some 5 minutes older than dirt, were around 3, 4, 5 years ago. Where WERE they? Where were they protesting the bills and policies that created the debt. You have BLINDERS on if you can't see why some people would assume the movement has a hidden agenda.

I don't believe race matters(and by the way race actually doesn't even exist. We're all the same genetically and our biological differences are arbitrary. I'm an Anthropology major and this is the consensus of anthropologists. ), but I know it when I see it. Funny how something completely made up for social stratification purposes can remain so prevalent. Just because you choose not to be that way doesn't mean you ignore it when it comes up. That's just silly. 2.) No I don' t think that the people in the room should be that way. But what I'm saying is that I don't think they should be demonized because it's not the SAME time of racism. Those people who seem to be agreeing with her initial are obviously carrying the burden of past experiences around. They need to be healed. When racism is directed towards Black people the person dishing out the racism is saying "you're less than human. I'm superior than you." It's very dehumanizing. Get it? It's someone saying they are better than a Black person vs. someone being bitter or defensive because of past acts of racism that they experienced. You can't tell ME it doesn't exist. I have the Internet and a White husband who relays the batshit crazy things racist White people tell him because they assume that because he's White he'll go along with it. You need some perspective Jew guy.

I think that's what your friend is getting at. Wed, 21 Jul 2010 04:16:07 +0000 http://biggovernment.com/jdunetz/2010/07/20/naacp-blames-fox-and-breitbart-for-the-naacps-overreaction-to-shirley-sherrod-video/#IDComment87811669 http://biggovernment.com/jdunetz/2010/07/20/naacp-blames-fox-and-breitbart-for-the-naacps-overreaction-to-shirley-sherrod-video/#IDComment87811568 Give me a break. You need to learn about Black history. You know nothing about it. It's actually a really inspiring story about choosing love over hate. I'm 25 and I have plenty of stories about racial discrimination. Initially it's hurtful, then angering, then if you can get past the anger stage and are able to obtain knowledge about your REAL history you are able to push past it and not be bitter about it. Why aren't you asking why she had disdain for the farmer? Why dos the audience seem to have the antagonistic attitude toward the farmer in the story? I hate racism. But the one thing I hate more is when someone act like it doesn't exist. . Also you need to actually look at what the "MSM" are saying is in the video and maybe it'll answer some of the points you claim aren't addressed. If someone took a video of you out of context and it cost you YOUR job wouldn't you want the person responsible tarred and feathered? He deserves to be tarred and feathered. This is the second misleading video he has put out that has ended up negatively affecting lives. Wed, 21 Jul 2010 04:15:12 +0000 http://biggovernment.com/jdunetz/2010/07/20/naacp-blames-fox-and-breitbart-for-the-naacps-overreaction-to-shirley-sherrod-video/#IDComment87811568 http://biggovernment.com/jdunetz/2010/07/20/naacp-blames-fox-and-breitbart-for-the-naacps-overreaction-to-shirley-sherrod-video/#IDComment87809839 Wow. Nice deflection. As I understand it, the timeline goes: this ridiculous website>Fox News>White House/NAACP reactions. How about the fact that Breitbart put out a highly edited misleading video that cost a woman her job?? If this author had any type of integrity he would be talking about how Breitbart and Fox News aired a highly inflammatory video without getting the backstory. I understand that Breitbart isn't a journalist, but isn't Fox NEWS supposed to be engaging in journalism? Oh and now it's still somehow damning because the PEOPLE IN THE ROOM SEEM TO BE AGREEING WITH HER PAST BEHAVIOR? Those are very old people. You can tell by the voices. Those people have seen some horrific things and been through very traumatic things so I understand some of the bitterness and anger that SEEMS to be on display.But put up the whole video. For all you know they could have ended up giving her a standing ovation when she concluded that race doesn't matter and recounted how she helped the farmer and his wife save their farm. Sorry excuse for a spin story.

Racist white people don't like talking about race. So in order to get Black people who may have been wronged or anyone else who may suspect racism to shut up, they try and make them feel like they are over reacting. And try and make them feel embarrassed to call it out. . . so much ignorance. And they aren't fooling anyone either. I've seen the race card 'played' one time in my entire life. It was disgusting. It was in a documentary called "Street Fight" which followed the 2000 mayor race. Anyone who really wants to know what pulling the race card is should watch that film.
