Quote by: Osborn F Enready I do not view myself, or any particular race, genetically superior, or in any way "better" than another. I believe all races of mankind are entitled equal rights once born and are entitled to defend those rights by all means necessary up to and including lethal force. I also believe all races should be treated EQUALLY in the eyes of the law. After having said this, I feel there is a dangerous trend of reverse-racism being practiced in law, and media hype with respect to incidents like this. |
Agreed.

I do know it is as common today as the word "man", "dude" and "bomb"(as in like: ex"Dude, that movie was the (bomb)" meaning totally cool, whack, dope, fresh, gnarly, rad, funkadelic, true, hype, neato, nifty and swell.)[/i]

nigga can only be used by black people to black people, apperently, except a few golden moments for a fly white dude like myself. I sing the blues and was talking to black people at a blues bar who had already accepted me as 'cool'. I was talking about reverse racism to them, well actually, we were talking about racism in general and I don't remember exactly how it went down but I put it across to prove a point and they didn't mind.

I want to know in this situation, what IS right in your view?

I'm not sure, dude. I think this one's hard to judge from afar. It all depends on how this guy said it and There's no video for that. But, point well taken. I believe racial tensions are being provoked to undermine actual progress between cultures. I know you would at least entertain that theory.
I think that the teacher
should be suspended if not fired for stooping to a child's level. It's a tough job, I suppose. There's going to be a strike at the largest school district in my county. The teachers aren't happy and the deadline is in two days. A little girl (sophmore) wrote a letter to the paper suggesting the teachers should suck it up and think about the students. The girl got on the front page later in the week (today) when she came back to the paper and reported that a teacher had mistreated her in class because of her letter. The root of the education system's stress is funding. Plain and simple. Can't afford to pay teachers what the task at hand requires. Children are the ones who suffer. Of all races, too. of course. Not to divert the subject or anything. Just my thoughts.
