Are my views on black people normal?

If they are African American then I guess I'm European American? Lol, Obviously every American's heritage stems from somewhere else. But the only people who don't require our native land to be mentioned is the whites.

Black people think the world owes them something.

I know right if you aren't politically corrrect these days you are a considered a major racist. It is so wrong, I mean gosh darnit if I say the term "black" instead of "African American" I' m a racist. African Americans sometimes refer to eachother as "nigga", nobody else can refer to them as that. Thats whats wrong with America is everything has to be politically correct.

In my opinion black people play the slavery card to much. I mean sure most slaves in this country before the civil war were African Americans but some of them were inidian, white and other nationalities. In the 1800's even black people owned slaves! Slavery has always been a part of history. Do you ever hear the Jews complain about WWII? I think not!

FINALLY, someone who can see the sad truth of what the world we live in has become.

OP, you are very wise. It just sucks that people who point out the truth like you are seen in a negative light.

Keep up the good work. It's nice to know that people like you still exist.
I really hope you're still reading this so that you can see that you have my support and that of many others.

I don't think anything about this is racist. People get so confused and make utterly ridiculous statements that suggest everyone is exactly the same. We're not the same. However, we should be given the same opportunities. I think that's what gets people.

If something is different they're used to treating it differently. In actuality, I think it's perfectly acceptable (even common sense) to treat people differently; usually it's out of respect. What we shouldn't do is limit people's opportunity.

The only issue I have with your post is with calling the U.S., America.

Americans are born in the United States of America.

Americans, Mexicans, Canadians, Chileans, Brazilians, Peruvians, the Surinamese, Hondurans, Panamanians, etc. are all born in America.

The reason why minorities have so many scholarships is there are many factors that hinder most of their potential( this doesn't apply for all minorities, i am generalizing). minorities tend to have lower income, due to many different reasons, mainly discrimination and oppression. Also, their culture has changed and many of them turned to drug dealing, being in a gang, and other detrimental lifestyles. Those scholarships are a way for those minorities who live this way to have a chance to succeed. The problem is that people assume that all minorities go through this and they don't. They also assume that Caucasians do not suffer from financial problems or join in this lifestyle, and therefore, don't need assistance. Despite believe that America has changed, it is still as discriminatory and biased as before, and i am Hispanic so i know from experience when i say that there are more people abusing the benefits the government provides for minorities than using them for more important reasons(food stamps, unemployment, etc.)

I get along with Asians mexicans Indians white but....I'm sorry to say most black people annoy me... Everytime u play basketball they won't shut up...they yell miss and talk shit... They constantly pick on everybody even their own friends...they always say "it's cuz I'm black right?" WTF no....I do find some nice and think they have had a hard life because of slavery that is fucked up...

I think the difference is due to the way in which our ancestors arrived in the Americas.

Some (the white folks) came to make a better life for themselves and their families.

Others (black Africans) came because they were brutally kidnapped, beaten, raped, and forced to work as slaves for white people. And this sort of "background" has repercussions that last for generations upon generations.

Slavery ended a long time ago, but the effects of it are still visible in the generations that are alive today. The laws no longer condone slavery, but it will take much longer for the oppressive cultural norms to subside. Until then, the descendants of slaves have a tough legacy to overcome.

Not racist. racist is dislike of a race or causing harm to them for no reason other than your dislike. Admitting differences and not agreeing with preferential treatment isn't racist.
I think people talk entirely too much about race, period. We should focus on the fact that were all people and stop asking "Race" on job applications. I never answer that question.

I think your views are normal and you seem like a sensible person. When I came here I was expected to read a wall a offense and racist text that would make some poor black person find new ways to hate them self or white people but I'm glad that expectation wasn't met, lol.

I agree with a lot of what you wrote since I hold a lot of those same beliefs. I am black and believe that being black shouldn't grant me special treatment over white people. After a traumatic racial history the last thing I need is to pitied because I'm black.

I totally agree with the OP. That would make me European African lol

This was not as bad as i was expecting it to be, so thank God.I'm a black girl that agrees with everything you said except for the white college thing.I don't think that you are racist although all of your thoughts would sound racist comming from a white person=/

I wouldnt worry about what other people think too much.......... only you know if you arent comfortable with your feelings

Ahh , your not racist just practical. But whites can't be practical in these terms without all the do gooders jumping all over them. Notice blacks can treat and call whites anything or way they want- it's total bs.
Every country/people have likes and dislikes even hates - all the time , of their neighbours ,or the other religion, or the other culture, or the other race , it's quite normal and been that way for 1000's of yrs . But for some reason the whites/black thing gets politically corrected until we're all brain dead from it- total bs.
I can't stand some things about blacks but there's other things I admire- so what that's not racists just practical honesty - they'd feel the same way about me/us.

One thought comes to mind though , maybe if it's just left to flow in it's true natural way ,things might explode between the two bc if you ask me neither really like each other all that much deep down but it's a case of have to live together so best keep it civil .

But really , if it was left up to natures laws centuries ago , the two totally different races wouldn't even be sharing the same country anyway .

Honestly, I couldn't have said it better. Thank you for this question, it was an interesting read.

*big =P

A lot of people feel like this and how much u express what u feels just determines how 'big ur balls r', I think black people r very racist in this day and age but I don't express it much cause I don't want to b labeled a racist. Good job having bog balls. Haha...

Couldn't have said it better my friend. I clicked 'normal.'

I agree with the ancestry thing, I don't understand why mostly Americans need to say, "I'm German-Dutch-French-American" when you are simply "American".

Same with me, my Grandmother was Portuguese but I am English.

As for the racist stuff, I don't think you are. You hold no malice towards anyone it seems and as races we do have differences, such as bone structure and facial traits. But it doesn't make you racist for knowing and acknowledging that.

you sound reasonable enough. just remember not to take the racist jokes too far and not everyone finds something they're sensitive about (race) a good basis for a joke.

no idea what all this minority privilege is too by the way. im from england and we don't have anything like that here.

we are ALL different.

opinion of a black guy.

Thinking too much about this makes you racist (I'm Caucasian btw.)
