Exactly correct...but the assumption is based on what has happened with virtually every thread started where racism from the 'white' perspective HAS been started. And get over what exactly? Oh noes...my feelings is hurt because they chanted USA? If the people that were upset had a half a brain in their head they would have joined in the chant. Think about how THAT would have worked out. OBVIOUSLY they were and are proud Americans and proud to have escaped FROM that rathole south of the border...so joining in would have made perfect sense AND shut them up.
Then it works both ways. In the thread that you would have hypothetically created, the whites should "just get over it," too. And what I always see on these threads is this: bigotry towards whites is attacked by conservatives, minimized by liberals; bigotry towards non-whites is attacked by liberals, minimized by conservatives. This does not apply to ALL of either lean, of course, but as a generality, it's what I've seen.
And how the other team responded or didn't respond is irrelevant to what the initial team did.
