After blacks gained control of the South African government, white employees were routinely replaced with blacks throughout the country. There was no criticism of this. After all, since South Africa belonged to the blacks (the majority), they should obviously have the jobs, money, and power. So let me make sure I understand your position...... Using your exact words, but interpolating your statement into US terms, it would read like this: "Since the US government (President, Vice President, Congress, the Judiciary) is clearly under white control, then black employees throughout the country should routinely be replaced by whites. After all, since the US belongs to the whites (the majority), they should obviously have the jobs, money, and power." Does that fairly represent your position? Good luck on this one now! With warmest personal regards, de Hans, K0HB |

After all, since the US belongs to the whites (the majority), they should obviously have the jobs, money, and power." Does that fairly represent your position? No, that's not what I said. That what racist liberals said about blacks (the majority) in South Africa. Now, let's see if I understand your position. As I see it, your position is that whites should NOT have the jobs, money, or power exactly because they are the majority - much of it should be transferred to minorities instead. Is that what you're trying to say? If not, what exactly are you trying to say, Hans? Where do whites fit into your grand vision of the perfect America? Where do the minorities fit into this vision of the perfect America? Are you sure the others races are going to agree and comply with your vision? Or do you think you just can whip them into submission by calling them racist when things don't go your way? Your amateurish attempts at social engineering are damn scary to me. You're assuming the minorities are just going to goose step to your views of a perfect world - that none have an agenda of their own (an agenda that may not be so rosy for whites in this country). Blindly following that belief, and ignoring the inherent racism of the single race cultures these immigrants often come from (they have no desire for multi-race cultures in their home countries), you're inviting millions into this country each year. Pardon me if this causes me concerns (concerns you call racism). Getting back to South Africa, liberals didn't like the white MINORITY having jobs, money, or power, in South Africa and they don't like the idea o f the white MAJORITY having jobs, money, or power, in this country. The only thing consistent about those contradictory views is a dislike of whites, minority or majority. Dwight Stewart (W5NET) http://www.qsl.net/w5net/ |

Dwight, You have a vivid imagination, but it's damned distorted! Since I haven't stated my position, whatever you "see" is something that you're making up on the fly. (In short, you don't have a clue.) To save you the effort of further imagining, here is my position in three words. "Race is irrelevant." You seem to place great emphasis on race/ethnic background; ipso facto, you're a racist. With all kind wishes, de Hans, K0HB |

You only say that because I'm white. If that were not the case, you'd be saying the same thing to Condoleezza Rice (Nat, Sec, Advisor), Colin Powell (Sec, of State), Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Mary Berry (Chair, US Com. on Civil Rights), and a very long list of other minorities who think race and race issues are very relevant in this country. Why should it be any less so for whites? In reality, your open criticism of whites who talk about race, without criticism of other races who do the same, only demonstrates your own racism towards other whites.

Dwight Stewart (W5NET) http://www.qsl.net/w5net/ Lets see, we can have an all black mayors conference, but just listen to the uproar from all the Jesse Jackson idiots if we tried to have an all white mayors conference. We can have a Miss Black America contest but what a howl there would be if we attempted to have a Miss White America contest. Yea Hans, it is just the whites that are racist. |

It behooves all of us to be just as indignant about racism in any venue, regardless of ethnicity of the racist. That having been said, I can understand some of the seclusion each race enjoys from others, IF the purpose is cultural. What is specific to a black mayors conference are those things specifically related to black issues in the community(ies) they represent. I am certain that if there were issues that needed addressing in a "whites only" venue, then you'd see a white mayors conference and, honestly, I am not so sure there isn't one. What we may find generally attractive in a representative for the United States in a Miss America, is totally different from what the Black/Negro/Colored (depending on the part of society and geographical/historical perspective you come from) find in a representative specific to Black America. I also don't see those things as racist and I am wondering if you really do. I mean, the "race" card--as its so affectionately come to be known--can be played anywhere. And, there are people just stammering to be offended, no matter what. I disregard them. I don't see that a all male organization is necessarily discriminatory, either. Do you? I would hope not and, if you do not, then why is there a problem for you with a all _________ (whatever race) organization? What about a sports organization that won't allow women? What about.....???

Show me a message anywhere in any of these newsgroups at any time where you've expressed any indignation whatsoever about the racism of any other racial group. If you're typical, I seriously doubt you can do so. Instead, you attempt to explain away the racism of others like you've done below. That having been said, I can understand some of the seclusion each race enjoys from others, IF the purpose is cultural. What is specific to a black mayors conference are those things specifically related to black issues in the community(ies) they represent. (snip) I thought a mayor is elected to represent the whole community, not solely the "black issues in the community(ies) they represent." What about the whites issues in the communities they represent? Why aren't those black mayors getting together to discuss those? Since those black mayors won't, who does address those issues? Absolutely nobody is the only answer. If a white mayor, or any other politician (black or white, police chief to president), expresses even a hint of concern for white issues, the word "racist" is immediately thrown around. In the end, a concern for whites is just about an ultimate sin in this government. And it is going to stay that way until whites start demanding some representation for their issues in this government. I am certain that if there were issues that needed addressing in a "whites only" venue, then you'd see a white mayors conference and, honestly, I am not so sure there isn't one. Be serious, Kim. First, I suspect a conference like that would be considered illegal by the Justice Department - minorities can but whites cannot. Second, if such a conference were held, groups throughout the country would be out outraged, demonstrations would be held, lawsuits would be filed, and people like you would be running around screaming your indignation again. What we may find generally attractive in a representative for the United States in a Miss America, is totally different from what the Black/Negro/Colored (depending on the part of society and geographical/historical perspective you come from) find in a representative specific to Black America. And that justifies the intentional and specific exclusion of other races in those pageants? Why would what you say not be true for whites, yet such an event held by whites which specificially excludes other races is illegal. And I'll add to JJ's examples. What about black colleges which exclude other races? What about black owned businesses with not a single white employee in the entire building (many in my town alone)? What about the "Negro College Fund" which offers benefits only to blacks. What about "Black Entertainment Television?" I could list more. The point is that it would all be illegal (discrimination) if done by whites. I don't see that a all male organization is necessarily discriminatory, either. (snip) If the goals of that male-only organization were to promote the political and/or social advancement of males, would you still hold that same opinion? What about a sports organization that won't allow women? Based on physical strength, not racial, social, or ethnic, considerations, Kim. There is a huge difference.
