"Reverse" Racism

Any examples?

One doesn't have to look to hard.

Most people are ethnocentric but being blatant about is what catches the eye.

BM (just 'cause I love cj so much).

All the usual suspects (except you CJ). It makes it easy when they pop up their heads like little range targets.

Reverse racism makes no sense... What the hell is msicar ?

LOL LionTamer,

But I will attempt to turn this thread into a worthwhile discussion with a thoughtful post.

At the core of discussions of reverse racism is an "us versus them" mentality.

The idea is that if you support one group (i.e. them or people who aren't real Americans) you hurt another group (i.e. us or real decent Americans).

The "them" can include people who may be "Americans" but are morally deficient in some way-- i.e. homosexuals, racial minorities or poor people.

Examples of this idea that are often expressed by people on A2K include...

- Giving rights to homosexuals which hurts heterosexual marriages.
- Worrying about the rights of innocent Middle Eastern prisoners which puts the freedom of the United States at risk.
- Allowing religions to have equal footing which hurts Christianity.

I suspect these are the things that CJ is talking about.

ebrown, I would presume from my vantage point that you have it analyzed right on target.

ebrown,
Thank you for setting me straight.

I'm gonna go work on my marriage now.

Thus ebrown has personally volunteered to pay the medical bills for all of his illegal friends.

Right buddy?

Guns. I have the strong feeling that it is about guns.

Nope. In fact that shows a lapse in judgement on your part.

Speechless dude? Comon, show me the MONEY.

Rather than have us plow through every thread, it would be more conducive to discussion if you could be more specific about what you believe constitutes "reverse racism" and/or point out some specific examples on this discussion board. So, how about it?

Lady, I've been called every name in the book, while for the most part holding my tongue. Figure it out for yourself.

It's all you can expect when there are so many Americans on the forum.

Be thankful for us, trust me.

Me too!

No, in your case, it is about all those Kiwis swarming your beaches, dressed in sheep's clothing.
