re: Black spring breakers say they felt unwelcome on Mississippi Coast

quote:

---

Hundreds of blacks in Baton Rouge are alive and remember being ecstatic to have a pool they could swim in b/c the awesome City Park Pool was Whites only, BY LAW. Dummy. They had to swim in DITCHES, ponds, and overflow after rains like where WBRZ is now.

---

The older blacks aren't the ones who complain about everything though...and they are the ones that have more right to complain. They should be pissed at the younger generations bitching since they have no clue what it was like at one time in this country.

quote:

---

this is where double standards come into play in this country...white people could promote the same thing and there would be outrage. Until this stops there will always be issues

---

Let's be honest though, if it were marketed as white spring break people would assume that it was whites only because of the time period where we had whites only.

I think that people just have to stop being offended that they may not be included. Sometimes you just need to do your own thing instead of trying to involve yourself in someone else's thing

Did Black people buy and sell white people, rip apart white families, beat white people, for the sake of agricultural progress?

---

Absolutely, for thousands of years. Slavery was invented in Africa and near east Asia.

---

Did Black people make white people sit at the back of the busses, eat at different restaurants, drink from other fountains, use outhouses instead of real bathrooms? Many of these people who were oppressed BY ACTUAL LAWS are still alive today.

And the businesses in MS are REACTING to very real things that have happened again and again. It's not a case of "ooh, scary black people."

I guess it's too hard not to commit crimes and destroy businesses. Society should just lower its bar YET AGAIN to accommodate it.

And when I see an elderly black person, I DO go out of my way to express a heightened level of courtesy and manners to somehow convey a message that times have changed.

---

This is a problem with believing all people of the same race experience the same things. The futility of groupthink and collectivism.

Most black folks would probably appreciate being treated like a normal person, not a victim.

I just treat them with the respect I do all old people.


Unless they get an attitude. I don’t care how old you are, once you start acting like an insufferable fagtard, you lose my respect.

That aint many, chief.

Most black folks alive today have no clue what it's like to live under forced segregation. But they seem to really enjoy self segregation.

---

I know I have caught shite for this, but I have to go back to my theory. Blacks during segregation were fine. Instead of looking for inclusion from whites, they should have been trying to build. If I can't eat at that restaurant I will build my own. If I can't go to that theater I will build my own. I will say that when this was present, i.e., black wall street, it got destroyed by whites. The civil rights movement should have been focused on stopping the destruction of communities that blacks were trying to build.

There's a balance of genuine courtesy and pandering, Miss Daisy.
You're way up there so far from the reality of Deep South Amerikkka, Alaska you forgot how to do a rail off a stripper's arse muchless know what people go through of care about down here.
Sit down, Eskimo.

Go click the link Baton Rouge's Troubled Waters. There was a BIG contingent of blacks in Baton Rouge that wanted NO help from whites in improving "their" community. It's not black and white(pun). But it's interesting part of our city's history.

---

Genuine courtesy is offered to people regardless of race or gender.

Pandering is doing so because "you want them to know things are different."

Is now considered a racial slur

nothing really offends me but it seems black people find reasons to be offended these days. I mean come on Monty do you really believe white people are out to get black people? I don't know any that feel that way and I live in the south. Hell all my friends just care about family, work, and getting by in life. That goes for my black friends also.
