Because where I grew up...I have seen the worst of white people....I grew up in a very racist town(small town where its all hicks, rednecks, and white trash) I saw what hate could do when it came to people of different races not matter what the race was. If you were not white you did not belong there and that in my eyes was wrong. In a way because of this I do hate my own race and culture yet I do know that not every white person is this way....but growing up seeing what hate can do....its not a pretty. What is worse is when your own parents talk shit about you or get offeneded because you do not take those views or accept others even if they are not white. I love my parents but they can be ignortant as fuck sometimes. I was not trying to offend, but this is truly how I feel....sorry I know the truth hurts sometimes. hug

ummm... okay.

Well, I guess I think some black people suck too. Not all of 'em, but some. I also think some Asian's suck. Not all, but some. And some middle eastern people suck too. and some native americans. And some mixed race people too.

Ummm - Some people suck - it doesn't matter what color their skin is - it is who they are inside not outside that makes them what they are. Don't care where ya look you can find stupid people that suck everywhere.
Maybe if you took off that chastity belt you could breath a little mo betta.

okay, that's fine. You keep thinking what you think. You have a right to think whatever you want, as do I. I'm not stopping you, and I'm not complaining. Your statement is somewhat confusing to me though, I'm not quite sure what you're saying. White people suck, but not all white people? What the hell does that mean? I could say that about any group or any thing.

Television sucks but not all television.
Fast food sucks but not all fast food.
Pop music sucks but not all pop music.

For someone who doesn't sugar coat things, I am not sure what you are implying by your statement. I read your "story" to Natsume, and it still doesn't make any sense. Unless this racist town you grew up in was what you considered to be a fair representation of the world's white population (or I guess, a 50% representation as per your edit).

But then, by saying "I saw what hate could do when it came to people of different races not matter what the race was", it tells me that the racist race is a matter of situation, and you could then say "____insert race here_____ sucks" and apply it to any race, without singling out the white race. Hence the confusion.
