re: The Ferguson Protestors Were Yelling Racial Slurs Last Night

Whites don't take seriously the people who make racial slurs directed at them

Not necessarily. Whites can be very sensitive to ethnic slurs, but the thing is, unlike African Americans, there is no white "solidarity". Whites don't stick up for one-another. Whites have always been divided among ethnic lines. The Irish hate the Scots hate the British hate the French hate the Germans hate the Poles hate the Russians hate the Slavs hate the Greeks hate the Italians hate the Spanish, ect and everyone hates the Jews.

Italians stick up for other Italians, but don't care about other nationalities. The same is true for all other "white" groups.

However, call an Italian a wap or dego, and you may see the fists start flying.

The same is true for calling a Polish person a Polack, an Irish person a Mick, a Jewish person a kyte, ect.

Whites don't really take offense to being called generic "white" racial slurs like "honky", "whitebread", or "cracker", but they take insults to their nationality to heart.
