white slaves
I've mentioned white-on-white slavery/oppression several times through this thread. Although I mainly intended to focus on other races oppressing whites, as it's a statement against PCness, to show that other races have been equally as animalistic and evil as whites have been, and that whites too can be victims of racist oppression, and that demonizing whites to such an extent as the PC loonies out there do is just plain irrational..... But I haven mentioned white-on-white oppression several times though. I'm definately not trying to say that whites are perfect angels. But we're no different than any other race.
What a coincidence. The featured article on Wikipedia is about slavery in ancient Greece.
Anyway, if you want to be taken seriously, you probably shouldn't link to American Renaissance. They're a well-known white supremacist group. I know that there were white slaves, but I don't really trust an article from a white supremacist site.

I did not know they were a white supremacist group. The problem I find though is the only whites willing to stick up for whites are racist groups like stormfront, KKK, neo nazi's, and those are **NOT** the people whites need representing us.
It's similar in some ways too with black pride groups, they don't have many positive leaders anymore either. The only one I can think of is Bill Cosby.... But the only difference between Nation of Islam and KKK, is that one is a black supremacist group and one is a white supremacist group.
But our culture fosters more lenience and acceptance of racism among minorities against whites. If your ethnic and your racist, your "proud of your heritage". If your white and your proud of your heritage, your "racist".
I did since strong fundamentalist overtones in the article, but I pushed that aside due to the fact that religion and race are usually historically connected, and whites were for the most part a Christian people (for the most part). And the stand-off between Christianity and Islam has long been around even in ancient times so it's not hard to believe there would be some religious persecution as well.
I myself am not christian, or muslim, honestly I think it's absurd to try and say who started the whole crusades deal. At this point it doesn't even matter, both sides need to stop hating and destroying. You can throw Israel in there too, though most Christian nations usually take sides with Israel. But religious wars need to stop too though.
But ultimately, I wish the categorization by race, religion, etc would just stop, I wish race would just become a non-factor. And gender only be a factor in picking dates (naturally a straight person will want someone of the opposite sex, gays want someone of the same sex).
The PC police must be asleep. Or maybe they are not upset about the truth.
Reactions to slavery occur in a particular context. In the United States, that context is a form of slavery that involved whites enslaving blacks, and it resulted in generations being treated brutally, denied education and property rights, etc. Many conservatives think it is enough simply to stop hurting that race, and things will immediately be fine. Were it only so simple - the effects of slavery linger on.

So...... Basically this gives them the right to beat, rob, kill, and terrorise innocent white people today? Do you not consider Nation of Islam racist and dangerous? All it is is a black KKK. Do you support Al Sharpton, Farakhan, Jesse Jackson? Why is that any different in principal than supporting David Duke? Or Mark Furhman? Racism is racism dude, you've got absolutely no compassion for white victims. You are totally heartless towards white victims. Do you understand you are basically ignoring innocent human beings (don't focus on their color, focus on their humanity, stop being an uncle tom) being victimized?
Stop making excuses, that's all you PC people do is make excuses. Have a damn heart. Hell it may be you getting lost and wandering through the projects one day. And I don't think they'll care how much you hate other white people, or how much you hate yourself for being white.
Some discrimination still goes on against blacks, namely in law enforcement, and it's wrong. It is wrong, period. Aside from a racist LE, most of the rest of it is exagerated now days, it's not nearly as bad for them as it was 30 or 40 yrs ago. Black people are getting good jobs now, climbing the ladder. If anything, arabs are the prime target of racism, ever since 9/11. If blacks really wanna fight racism now, they should really stop buying into this BET culture that teaches them that theyr only good enough to succeed by being a rapper, basketball player, or drug dealer. BET is ran by the corporate white people they talk about holding them down all the time.
You do understand that me standing up for arabs there, can be contextually seen in a similar light as a black man sticking up for a white man? I don't hold them responsible for the past though, they don't have any control of that, or even what other arabs do today.
Beating up "wh***y" is actually a regular ritual in ignitiation into black street gangs too. Don't say I'm stereotyping by admitting that --some-- black people get into gangs. And stop making excuses for racists. You are an uncle tom, monty. Rather you'll admit that or not, your an uncle tom.... Hey, anything to avoid thinking and having an individual identity and the responsibility that goes with that type of freedom you find so unbelievably scary, right? Gotta be an uncle tom to fit into the little blue box, eh.
Totally ashamed of your color because other white people did something bad. Dude, let me tell you something here, there is not a race that does not have blood on their hands through the passage of history. There is no "good" race, only good individuals, and they can come from any race. Any race, including white people. There are good white people, there are bad white people, there are good black people and there are bad black people, you can say the same thing of any race dude. I'm not responsible for what other white people did 200 yrs ago. Arabs aren't responsible today for enslaving MY ancestors. There is a concept called sovereign individuality, meaning your only responsible as an individual for your own individual actions.
Also we're supposed to just let undocumented, uncharted people just come here and wreck our way of life just because theyr brown? And if we don't agree to being economically robbed, we're "racist"? I think that's abusing the race card dude.
What if an illegal immigrant murders someone? It's hard to convict a killer if there is no record of their existence. What if theyr on the run in Mexico for a violent crime? We wouldn't even know because we don't even know theyr here, we don't even know how many people live in our country now. To relegate illegal immigration to racism is to ignore the entire premise for having rules and organization in society. North American Union is a Red Herring. Look at the European Union. I would like to help Mexico too, but not in a way that hurts us. I prefer finding a neutral solution to the border crisis that can befefit both Mexicans and Americans, that begins by stopping NAFTA. The only reason you want to do it in a way that hurts us is because you repeat slogans and reverberate anything the democratic party tells you too. Your a parrot.

Slavery was a part of many, or maybe most, human societies at one time. I've got some books detailing the history of where I live, and there are references from extracts of old texts to slaves. That's white slaves with white masters. As far as Africa goes, I understand we just exploited a market that was already in existence. In fact, I really don't think we (as in Brits and Yanks) have anything to be ashamed of as we effectively abolished slavery over a hundred years ago. Of course, over in Africa they're still enslaving and killing each other as we speak, so I guess you could say that most black Americans should think themselves lucky.
Yeah, because all people with Asperger's syndrome are completely devoid of bigotry and balanced in their opinions.

Sorry Chav but I'd have to agree with Aridarr here. I've seen some pretty ignorant aspies.. I'd also be critical of science, as I am critical of everything. Don't get me wrong, science is the ultimate art of explaining things, but how do you know your getting good science? How do you know the science we're taught isn't ever tampered? Who'se paying the scientists? What agenda might they serve? Don't forget NAZI scientists passing eugenics into society, nobody questioned it at the time.

No, it doesn't grant anyone the right to beat, rob or kill. It does, however, explain why one group is more likely to engage in such activity. I'm not making excuses - I am trying to understand a persistent social problem. Understanding this problem increases the possibilities for solving it.
Yes, Farakan is a racist. I have denounced him here, and elsewhere. The fact that there are black racists does not erase the fact that racism in the US has been predominantly perpetrated by the white community, and that the non-white community has been massively victimized.
No compassion for white victims? I didn't say that. You projected that into my statements.
I don't hate myself for being white. I have no guilt for my skin color or my actions. On the other hand, as a member of a corporation called the United States of America, I feel that the corporation should take responsibility for past injustices it took (whose consequences are quite visible today), and it should take some action to remedy those.
You are mis-informed. Hospitals are required to provide emergency services to all people, regardless of their legal status or ability to pay. When someone is having a heart attack or has a severed limb, they treat that person. So all people have the same low-level of health care available to them. Very few illegal immigrants have free high quality health care.
Here is a quote from one anti-immigration source:
http://www.theamericanresistance.com/is ... _care.html
The population of Florida is around 15 million, so each legal resident of Florida spent about $3.50 for health care of illegals in 2002. I submit that each resident of Florida gained far more than $4 from the fact that there are undocumented workers here. The orange crop is a multi-billion dollar industry based on undocumented workers. The hotels around Orlando would not be able to change the sheets each day without undocumented maids. The average construction price for a home was lowered hundreds or thousands of dollars by using undocumented workers. If each illegal alien is costing us less than $4 for health care, then they are getting very little, while society gets a great deal.
