The NAACP does NOT now, nor has it EVER restricted it's membership to only African Americans. I am a past president of the NAACP (a local chapter, not national) and a life long member. We have always had white and jewish and hispanic members. Please fact check before you spout incorrect bullshit. Thank you. Amen girl. Took the words from my mouth. I am just a dumbass white person, but, for some reason, I expect someone from the NAACP to arrive any moment and apologize for her stupid statement. And you give her an amen? Admitting what you are is half the battle to recovery Well, you dumbass black people know nothing about how using such language as the highlighted above make you look and how it hurts you in the eyes of many of those who really go out of their way to be champions for all races. I was simply trying to be supportive to your plight as a dumbass white person. Here I am trying to go out of my way to champion your cause and this is the thanks I get?

Attack the ideas, not the person. This also exempts you from bashing large groups of CollarMe folk as well as single CollarMe folk. Dumbasses are not genetically linked to their color, they're to be found throughout humankind. Note: it has been whispered to me by another Moderator that she calls her dog dumbass, so it is not uniquely a human shortcoming, apparently. Now, back to discussion of the Tea Party Leader's comments. VideoAdminSigma

That's a really sick value system that calls wanting to correct past and present injustices against people of color "liberal white guilt". And it's a complete denial of historical and current-day racism to claim that Affirmative Action is no longer needed because racism in the US was vanquished in 1964 at the stroke of Johnson's pen.

Affirmative action is wrong and is racist, period. It doesnt matter whether anything was "vanquished at the stroke of a pen". Affirmative action gave us the buffoon in the White House. Thats ample proof that its screwed up.

quote: ORIGINAL: domiguy Are all tea baggers racist? No. But the under current is there. It is not a party that was spontaneously created by the fiscally concerned it was a choreographed movement that has racist undertones. Really? I'm confused here, I remember going to the first tea parties, and they weren't about Obama at all. In fact they sprung up before the primaries. SPONTANEOUSLY, by Ron Paul supporters. It was about the Constitution and Libertarianism not about Obama. It was about taking the republican party back from those dickwad neo-cons. Perhaps, you are confused about how the tea party movement started. With that said some of the parties have been hijacked by neocons, and I no longer attend. However, out of the 10 or so I did attend I never once seen or heard anything racist. Actually, there were people of creeds and race. I have seen some racist statements in pictures, but it my belief (from experience) that these people are a minority and most tea party members(neocon or otherwise) don't endorse nor support racism in anyway. There are bad apples in every group of people, every community, and every organization. I think racism will seize to exist when we stop viewing each other as belonging to groups, white, black, Asian, christian, muslim, jew, and start viewing people as simply people. Who are only subject to judgement based on their individual actions.

How were the playing fields to be leveled? Or perhaps you never thought the game was rigged? By the way....that "buffoon" in the White House....arrived their by dint of an election...aided greatly of course by the incompetance of his predecessor and the complete unsuitability of his opponent and his chosen running mate.

Let me try to keep this to the ideas, not the person. I am saying that it is unacceptable for someone to refer to any race in the manner that she referred to white folks. Once you do resort to using such words, you lose all credibility and it does not reflect well on the organization that you are trying to explain as being non-racist. If you choose to not call her out on it, that implies you agree with it being ok and that does not reflect well either. Had her post not used such ignorant language, I would have given her an amen. If no one is willing to call her out on how wrong such language is, we are farther from racial harmony than I thought. Bless all our hearts.

Historically yes....now show me where the NAACP is actively working to enact any Jim Crow type legislation and I will be amogst the first to concede your point.

So far we have been told that the NAACP is not racist because A) Black people face discrimination and white people don't B) The NAACP is not a black supremacist group and C) the NAACP is not sponsoring any Jim Crow type laws The first is irrelevant to the question, it may (and I think it does) explain why such an organization is needed but has nothing to do with it being Racist. The other two are basically the same argument, and by those standards the Teabaggers are not racist either, since it is not a supremacist anything group and they are not supporting any Jim Crow type laws. Yet for some reason the Teabaggers are considered racist, why is that?

the loudest people get the most airtime. unfortunately, these loud people happen to be idiots. i do not believe the entire teaparty is racist. not at all. its just the ones who are interviewed and are in the public eye.

The children of collage alumni get(or used to get) preferential treatment in admissions,ie,guaranteed admission. That,is a form of white affirmative action. It may not be called as such but in action and in result it is. Traditionally and predominantly, whites have gotten that leg up. If an Ivy League school`s alumni are 90,95 or higher white,that segment gets the lion`s share of slots.

She lost zero credibility with me. Your posts dont reflect well on you imo, I dont find you credible. Your unacceptable is my 'no problem', your pov is my 'unacceptable'. You are not God to determine what is acceptable, relevant or credible across the board. If it dont work for you, up to you but you do not speak for me, therefore you do not speak for everyone.

~FR~ For Christ's sake drop the dumbass white people bit...me and another white poster made a dumbass mistake regarding the NAACP's membership policy and were called on it...we are white and made a dumbass mistake, ergo the two of us were dumbass white people, end of story.
