[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh geez....I was going to add some tips.  I am a hiring officer in my agency and I am a minority.  Never mind! I am not in the mood for this "White people as victims" crap.  [/quote]

Be lucky you have never been told that you cannot have a job due to race.  I was with one of the local government's.  There are very few white people hired.  I was told by my white supervisor that she was instructed to hire a minority.  I got very lucky with her but there was clear discrimination and it was obvious by who was getting promoted (people who we had to help do their work as they couldn't hack it).[/quote]
Well, now I guess you know how black people have felt for the last few hundred years (and I didn't want to say this -- but your dumbass post just brought it out of me)[/quote]

So currently white people are responsible for what happened 100's of years ago?  That's your "so there" statement?  [/quote]
I never mentioned responsibility, I said now the pp knows what black folks have felt like for hundreds of years. But, if you want to go there...let us go.
If in 1772  Purple person A has created laws, systems, and practices  that discriminated against Green people, and these systems and values were perpetuated for hundreds of years thereby benefiting Purple people giving them a clear advantage economically and politically over Green people. It is now 50 years since the legalized discrimination has been abolished. Do you think that now all of a sudden Purple people and Green people are on an even playing field?  [/quote]
