The fact that we as the race in power in America can back up our verbal insults with actions that impact very negatively on them makes our insults more threatening.

Why that fact would be missed by Al is beyond me.

The minorities on this blog are acting out their frustration with how they feel we whites are treating them by calling them “White Boys.” Those whites who they feel are racist against them or generally stupid when they support political positions that are incomprehensible to them, such as the majority of our race’s tendency to support gun ownership without supporting background checks to buy those guns are tagged “White Boys.”

They can’t as a group vote any of our white men out of power positions they enjoy and employ their racist or bigoted behavior from. Calling us “White Boy” is all the power they have. They can’t force us to change legislation in any way.

The actions of SCOTUS presently deciding whether they will be able to vote without hassle in some southern states is an example. The thousands of laws passed to deny women the right to birth control or many other forms of health care in another example.

We whites have no idea what it must be like to have to sit on the sidelines and wait for a bunch of white people to decide you fate. How Al figures that compares to his having to read someone using the words “White Boy” is simply ludicrous.

Just as ludicrous is Bree writing in saying All racist’s words are equal. Only the group in power who has no fear of the other groups would make a disingenuous statement like that.

All racism isn’t equal. Sticking with your race because you prefer that race is one thing. Doing it and using the power of that group’s racism to impact negatively on another race is serious. And that is the issue here.

Al’s angst was not a serious one. If it bothered him, then he could stop reading that post. If minorities don’t like what we as the race in power are doing to them they do not have that option. Ignoring our racists acts against them won’t lessen the harm . They have to endure it.

Encouraging Al in his disproportional rant is wrong in so many ways. It actually says to the minorities that some members of our race are so narcissistic that any discomfort suffered by whites is intolerable while the recognition of their slights are dependent upon, as SCOTUS demonstrates, how the majority of us whites feel about them.

Al, you know better. If you are so psychologically incapacitated by the term “White Boy,” then don’t read that post. But for you to disparage the entire blog because you have issues with those two words is immature at best and self-absorbed and dogmatic at worst.

We can help Al best by not taking the bait that we whites have to fear the racism of the minorities. We have the law to come to our aid. We whites use the law to discriminate against the minorities.

That is the difference.

I don’t care how attracted you may be to any one male, make it know that your a feminist and find out if they are with you on that, not in that bullshitty liar kinda way…you know what I mean. You can feel it, a wuss will head for the nearest dummy, let him have her and sorry ladies if you’re going to act like a dummy and play in, you’ll be treated that way bc men often do not care as long as their needs get met.

Be willing to make your own needs/wants known and if he doesn’t want the same or refuses for whatever reason, ask him to step off and softly whisper…next…(or see my last sentence here, and say nothing until you need to) – now here’s the caveat, I’ve seen otherwise bright women play right into ‘I stand by my man’ (it’s cool though at least admit – to yourself – that your doing lock step to keep da peace, it’s when you BS yourself you run into big troubs) or ‘there’s not enough good ones around’ (oh bull, there are some good ones, believe me) and etc, etc…don’t fall prey to this and behave/act/speak how you think they want you to be, be heard, have a voice, if you don’t like what you see/hear speak up!
(Or keep him around if he’s got a nine inch personality but don’t count on any personal back up/serious thang – Bree, this was for you!)

There’s a lot of closet racists out there…I take issues with slobs, jerks, rude mannered and judgmental peeps in general and I don’t care what color or creed you are. If you behave like a classless base human than I won’t speak or regard you highly, why should I?

I got Al’s complaint, he just doesn’t feel he fits into the category so why does he need to hear it…I think it escalated very quickly and he got overly tweaked. It’s happened before here and I’m sure it’ll happen again….likely to me after saying this : ) though sorry, I’ll always TRY to see Al and Howie’s version and how things may have gone awry due to blog writes not having same communication style as in person, I’m good at viewing from all sides, we all know that…

The discovery raises concerns that the way some farmers are using biotech crops could spawn superbugs.

Great, Superweeds and Superbugs. I expect a video game. “What fools these mortals be!” It’s almost like War of the Worlds, only we are the aliens, and Mother Earth is getting ready to kill us off with bugs.

Solidarity is the only thing that will stop white boys in this country from preventing women gaining equal rights and total control over their bodies.

The Brees of the world drag us down and give men the idea that women are dumb.
