You realize no one ever makes a stint about st Patrick's day, or Cajun festivals, or Italian American parades, or German / Polish pride festivals.? I've heard of Italian American paegants and things of that nature.

No one. And no one should.

I have never understood this because if there was a White Miss America contest, or White Entertainment Television, etc there would be a HUGE uproar.


it's a double standard. They claim they want equality yet do not practice it. It's just like the liberals who preach tolerance but then aren't tolerant of anything they disagree with. The vocal minority has won out in this country and it is the silent majorities fault for allowing them to gain momentum 20-25 years ago.

So because of the past it is ok to exclude people from minority groups but the majority group can't do the same? Let me guess you also don't see the New Black Panther Party as racist either? It's a double standard and you know it.

Were you in one? It is obvious you really want to be black. Do you try to dress and talk black?

Last I checked they aren't kicking black people out of those.

I saw Kip Holden in the St. Patrick's Day parade this year.

And since when has St Patty's Day, Cajun festivals, etc excluded someone from joining in the festivities?

ETA: I have absolutely ZERO Irish in me and I love St Pattys day. IF they weren't all inclusive I would miss my favorite day in Baton Rouge outside of football games.

Thats why you didn't articulate how they were wrong

The two "black" guys next to her are just as light as she is.

I guess when your parents are black/white you're only considered black when it benefits the "movement."

Its not skin tone that pisses them off. Its the white girl hair. Black chicks are very sensitive about their hair.

Safety just claimed my 100% factual post was ignorant

For black grievance mongers, actual facts aren't even facts
