Gay and women groups are allowed because they serve their constituents; however, black groups serve a subsection as opposed to constituents?

Would you be opposed to a Congressional White Caucus that is for by and about White people?

yea, that is so needed to protect the disappating white privilege sarcasm alert.gif

while there is now no such committee, probably because one isn't needed to deal with the issues of the majority white population, one could be formed. historically, we would have referred to it as "the congress"

Ahh so, again, it's back to your obsession with skin color.

That there is a Black Caucus is a problem, but it takes a color blind mindset to see this.

It might take a blind person to not see that there are problems and issues specifically relevant to the black community.

responding to YOUR question about the prospects for a WHITE congressional caucus (@ post 47)

No.......America hasn't GONE tribal........humans ARE tribal.

Human beings are tribal.

It's our natural state. We form tribes based on excluding people who are DIFFERENT. All humans have the instinct to do it.

Which is why mixing cultures and races is a cause that will never work and only bring violence and death and war.

well, the GOP is KING at that & I blame them MUCH MORE than Dems for dividing the US ...........

It's easy to understand, I don't think there should be a race based group in congress, I don't care what color it is. I'll see if you can let that sink in, but something tells me you'll miss it, because well...

There are many different caucuses in Congress. The Republicans dominate most of them. I don't think you understand how Congress works. They get together in groups to form agendas, and gather support for bills. There is an Asian-American caucus, the Freedom Caucus for the so called Tea Party activists, and several others. Why would you object to black representatives getting together to discuss mutual issues?

In a beautiful, deluded dream of utopia where everyone is treated equally, noticing race is "racist" because, after all, there's no reason to notice or mention or anything else. If someone mentions race, they're a "racist".

It's like an alternate reality. Based is best wishes and resulting in reactionary stands.

Considering that EVERYTHING in the US becomes a race issue, considering much of the debate I have seen in here, you damned right blacks need their own caucus.

No one seems to make a big deal out of the NRA caucus, the unofficial clique who vote down weapons control bills.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Rifle_Association

"The NRA has for decades sought to limit the ability of the ATF to regulate firearms by blocking nominees and lobbying against reforms that would ease the ability of the ATF to track gun crimes.[68] The NRA, for instance, opposed ATF reforms to trace guns to owners electronically; the ATF currently has to do so through paper records.[68] In 2006, the NRA lobbied U.S. Representative F. James Sensenbrenner to add a provision to the Patriot Act reauthorization that requires Senate confirmation of ATF director nominees.[69] For seven years after that, the NRA lobbied against and "effectively blocked" every presidential nominee.[69][70][71] First was President George W. Bush's choice, Michael J. Sullivan, whose confirmation was held up in 2008 by three Republican Senators who said the ATF was hostile to gun dealers.


so if the "gun lobby" gets to keep on slaughtering children, then yes, blacks need to band together.

Considering who's in the White House, I would suggest being armed as well.

But "beautiful, deluded dream of utopia" in the US? Never

A place where race isn't important does exist. I live there

Seriously.........can that be far off?

Unless we put a speedy stop to the immigration of the blacks and browns we'll need a helluva lot of white power organizations in 20 years.

I wonder........will they be as kind and gentle as we are now when the time comes for our "White Lives Matter" riots?

Or will they shoot us?

If you're a good-hearted, hard-working, honest person, and you do not treat anyone with disrespect, it doesn't matter if you hold views that others may considered bigoted. Thoughts are not a crime. Thoughts cannot harm others. Only actions can.

When it comes to race, the only thing that matters is treating people equally. That's it and nothing else. You cannot control the thoughts of others and you shouldn't even try. If you set a good example for your children and you lead a good life, that's what counts. Good people don't frequent Stormfront, so, I would suggest that you stop going there. It's just getting you upset and making you think you see racism where it doesn't exist.

I promise you that if you starting looking for the good in others, instead of the bad, you'll start seeing a lot more good and life will be much happier for you. I promise you that.

Guy, I do very much look for the good in others. You just can't believe that I do...because you're too eager to see the bad in me instead of the good. And the sad thing is, if I were a betting man, I'd bet a great deal that you don't even realize why that is.

When was the US together as a nation?

Honest question

Best as I can figure it would have been the most together during the late 70's until the early mid 90's

Since this is an anonymous forum, I can only go by what you post -- and you posted:

And where's the outrage by conservatives about this racism infesting our nation's government? *crickets*
Click to expand...

That's what I'm responding to. That was your comment and it's not even close to being factual. That's why I told you that if you look for the good in people, instead of looking for the bad, you'll probably find it. I don't think you're bad person. I think you're focusing in the wrong place is all. And, for the record, I'm female.

For teh same reason we would oppose having a committee to meet and discuss issues that are germane to the white population - BECAUSE IT'S RACISM.

You mean like high crime rates?? (Except that if that issue gets brought up, the answer from the left is "it's not race, its economics")
Or the high incidence of absentee fathers? (Oops, that economics as well)
Or how about high drug addiction rates? (that's all whitey's fault for getting them addicted in the first place)

How about this: Let's start looking at issues from a color blind perspective (as conservatives overwhelmingly tend to do), instead of one that magnifies color (as liberals overwhelmingly tend to do). Shouldn't that be the goal? A society where "our children our children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character". What ever happened to the dream of racial equality? When did the left abandon that ideal and instead embrace racism?
 
Who wants to be around these people anyway ?

High crime rates in urban centers might be one. It is difficult to raise a family in a bad neighborhood. Also family breakdown, usually due to economic factors. Drug use and drug addiction is about equal among blacks and whites, yet blacks are 13 times more likely to be arrested and charged for drug use. So certainly that might be an issue. The fact that black youth are much more likely to be jailed for drug use than their white counterparts might be an issue. The fact that black men are frequently stopped for DWB and certainly more likely to be shot by a police officer when unarmed might be an issue. I'm sure with a little thought you could even come with more. But it seems you would rather be some kind of whitey victim.

How about this...the idea that conservatives are overwhelming blind to color is ridiculous. True, they might object to any social program that addresses actual problems of the nonwhite community...that is not a badge of honor however.

Definition of racism: rac·ism
ˈrāˌsizəm
noun
prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior. It has been my experience that White Nationalists are the people exhibiting racism. Will the White Nationalists be proud to live side by side with all children? I haven't seen that demonstrated to date.
