White is the new Black

I guess my new thing to complain about is Oprah. I honestly am stuck watching it most days but I'll say this...at least disagreeing with her so much gets my brain juice going again. I guess I'm one of those people who just always has to be angry about something. Good thing I live in America. Oh, which by the way, I'm totally psyched because all the democrats are in power again and I can't wait to watch them screw up. Hahah! It's MY time now, bitches! Maybe I'll go back to the old forums and post every freakin screw up they make and laugh and laugh.....

Okay I'm not really that pathetic. Yet.

So...back to Oprah. I don't know...she was talking about something called High school Challenge Day where all the students learn to love one another and soon the whole country will be immersed in beautiful hippy love. Right. But what irritated me was the way she kept saying to the black kids, "I can't believe in this day and age you are still being persecuted because of your race." Then she said to the senior class, "If you've ever been picked on because of your race, raise your hand." Then they dutifully showed all the black kids raising their hands. Little did they know I was sitting in my living room, raising my hand saying, "So was I!"

I'm white. I have Irish and Italian blood and I basically look like a white girl. 'Nuff said. And I don't know about you but I NEVER EVER saw any black kids being picked on for their race. Actually, in my school, the white kids were scared to death of the black kids. Let me chronicle my "persecution" as a white girl:

Kindergarten: A black boy (who was much older than me) attacked me on the school bus and literally tried to forced my head through a closed, glass window. He just kept banging it on the glass, calling me names and I guess trying to kill me or something. My mom went to the principal to have this boy expelled and we were told that the school couldn't do that. Because he was black.

Middle School: Black girls teased me to the point of tears every day. They hung around only with other black girls and made sure my life was miserable. They broke into my locker and stole stuff from me and what they didn't steal they threw all over the school halls. Then they put their black girl grease in my brush (undetectable to naked eye) so that when I brushed my hair I got greasy crap all in it. They got physical with me on several occasions. Again, nothing was done to reprimand them because they were black.

High School: A VERY large black guy tried to rape me on the school bus on the way home. Again, we went to the principal to have him punished and it turns out I was not the only (white) female to experience this, unfortunately the guy was black and a senior so the school didn't want him to miss graduation. I think they get money based on how many blacks they graduate.

So to say the least I'm a little irritated with the special treatment. What makes it worse is the fact that it's completely disguised because they can just go around saying, "Well I'm black so I need this." and they freakin get it...even though there's already a ton of programs out there for them, they get more scholarships, more state aide, whatever. These people aren't being discriminated against, I am!

I know...slave trade blah blah blah. What they don't tell you in school is that every other race who came to this country were treated horribly too. Maybe not slaves, but beaten to death, discriminated against, run out of town, denied jobs...that kind of stuff. Ask the Irish. I forget the movie, but the one with Leonardo Dicaprio and it's set in Old New York...it's about the persecution of the Irish in America I believe. The Italians were treated badly too. But for some reason we have to give restitution only to the blacks. Our children are only taught about Black history month and are allowed to be beat up on by blacks simply because...they are black.

Talk to me about what it's like to have my skin color this day and age. I think we've paid them our dues, no? I don't expect special treatment for the years I was tortured by those kids and the school system completely ignored it. I'm sure as hell not going to give them any special treatment. Too bad I'm not like...in power or anything. But I will say this, I don't take any shit from them anymore.

I gotta stop watching this crap.

I second this post. Black kids were mean to me too, although not to that extent. I believe they are raised that way - I know they are. They raise their kids believing they are a "minority" in America and deserve everything their little black hearts desire because they did what? Absolutley NOTHING.

The best part is when they complain and say things like "Why do the white people stereotype us as being dirty, messy, rude and mean?". Because you are, dumbass. You stereotype yourselves by constantly moving 8 generations of your family into the new low income housing complex down the street. And by trashing the place in less than a month.

Ok, take a deep breath, Josh. :o)

You're right babe, White Caucassions have it rought right now. There is no "I'm white, let me in for half the cost" box to check on that College App.

I'll just leave it at that, I'm coming home for lunch, love ya!

I'm not against blacks, I'm against STUPID. I'm against special treatment for anything other than what has been worked for and I'm really against people complaining about what happened FOREVER ago.

Time to get over it.

I enjoyed this post. I am very anti-STUPID.

I have to agree with all of you. I am not racist against black people but am finding that it is real hard not to be in this day and age where I am definately the minority. I am 33 years old and am currently experiencing my child in 3rd grade elem. school being picked on and ganged up on by all black children. The principal and vice principal are black. It makes me wonder. I dont know what rights my child or anyother white child have anymore in society. It is crap and i am sick and tired of seeing my child being bullied by other kids that are black and only black. He is not being bullied and beaten up by white children. Nothing is being done. I see it happening in the workplace and in schools. Blacks are getting away with just about anything they want as far as keeping jobs and staying in schools where they should not be. Whether you're black, white, yellow etc. there should be no difference. You should not have special privelage based on your color. Blacks etc are getting jobs that they dont qualify for just because we have to meet a quota. My child is being swept under the rug because the school does not want to make a scene. I dont know what to do.

You all are racist KKK fucked up idiots. Maybe the black kids picked on you cuz you walked around saying stupid racist shit like you were just rambling on about in your silly little blog. I'm white and i'm ashamed of you. You need to stop telling lies, nobody tried to rape you, you prolly begged him for some big black dick and he told you to get your smelly pussy away from him. If someone tried to rape you why wouldnt you go to the police? and i can see how much your parents love your dumb ass since they seemed so content to let someone who allegedly tried to rape you go unpunished. just because you didnt see a black kid experience racism doesnt mean that none of them did. Anyways i could go on but i'm wasting my time cuz honestly its not like im gonna change your narrow mind so i'm just gonna conclude by calling you some names such as RACIST CUNT FUCK LYING ASS BITCH.
