you know what is weird is i was called a racist by a hispanic man cause i said i don't like what most mexicans do to classic impalas. i am white-ish. what he did not know is my last name is Garcia. how can i be racist towards hispanics when i am hispanic. not mexican but spanish. but people make whites feel bad if the mention anything about race. if we notice a guy is black then all of a sudden we are racist. leave white skinned people alone shit.

so according to this video it seems that white people are the only racial group. blacks are waaaayyyy more racial. if we call them the n word they freak out and wanna kick our asses. but on the otherhand they can call us crackers, rednecks, or honkey and its ok to them.

that's a really deep lecture, but racism is not new or just a few hundred years old...it's been around since before the time of homo sapiens or neanderthals.

rasicm will never end... It's the same with monkeys they kill and eat the other breed... We still have the primal blood in our veins, Western countries are protected by the laws of the land that prevents us from killing and devouring each other...

sand nigger creates a social identity, but Jethro doesnt? He called the white guy that in the same clip. Its always ok for everyone else. i saw a black man on tv the other day say that is was racist for white people to say they are proud to be white.

I suppose part 2 will tackle racism against whites and the words used against us. Also, you think racism is a few hundred years old? I bet you think slavery started in 1654 with John Casor. If so, you should study more before making a one-sided video. The comedy in the video was funny, though.
