Black, White And Dead Behind The Eyes
Okay, the Northeast Times is just baiting, now. First off, there's a letter in this week's edition titled, "Stop the injustice against the MOVE 9!" Right. Then, there's this:
The debate continues, in black and whiteIn response to Melissa S. Tulin’s letter in the July 3 edition (She’s tired of the stereotypes), I suggest that she comprehend what my original letter stated before she claims others are racist simply because they disagree with her.
This way of thinking is exactly what I was talking about. Once again, African-Americans claim that they want to be "judged by the content of their character and not the color of their skin," when reality proves otherwise.
You state that some studies suggest that white women are the main beneficiaries of affirmative action, but you somehow omit the fact that on the whole, they outscore the African-American applicants.
Secondly, you correctly state the fact that unemployment is higher among black people, but you never mention why. Statistically, blacks score lower than others and a higher percentage are incarcerated. If you were an employer, who would you hire? Lastly, as a whole, crime and the quality of life is negatively affected when African-Americans move in. If you need proof, ride throughout the city and tell me different.
Yep. And when you let white people write letters to the editor, you get the stupidest argument styles possible. If you need proof... etc., etc.

I am not amazed at these moronic stereo types. I happen to be engaged to a white woman. I have heard blacks eat watermelons, chicken wings and throw trash on their streets, don't cut their yards and all sorts of other BS. I along with my fiance' can tell you, we know white people that do all that and more. I know white people that will eat the butt of a chicken while it's alive! Let's not talk about pork. It shows that most of the bigots that type that crap turn their heads to what their "good ole boys and girls" do. It's a Shame that some people think they are better because of a hue. I know alot of ignorant blacks and whites and I don't need to add any other ethnicity. They will just watch black and white go at it then add their own. At the end of the day, those others will be on that list. Just hate yourselves, because we all know we have family memebers that can make a maggot gag!
