What will happen when whites become the minority?

Right now there are all these rules that protect the minorities in the country. What is going to happen when whites get to be the minority? Will there be rules established to make sure whites arent being segregated against? This just crossed my mind because the rasing population of other ethnic groups. Someday, whites will be part of the minority. My question is will whites then be treated "fairly".

    I feel in a way that we are the minority now. Our government is more willing to fight for illegal imigrants then stand with legals mainly whites and african americans that are losing thier jobs to cheap labor. I know because they are taking over an industry i had to leave because they took the high wages away from us

    Assuming you are speaking of the USA, by the time what you are speculating occurs most of us will be dead. As long as we have the same form of Govt as we do now everything should be "cool". If we don't then all bets are off. If there is a fascist state then any number of ethnic problems could arise. When one isolates the parts from the whole it results in failure. The reason the USA is so successful is that most of us with any common sense and the laws of the land respect others diversity. That is a tremendous source of strength that everyone needs to support. The alternative is bigotry, chaos, despair and misery. We all have our preferences and one of them should be treat others as you want to be treated. It makes us strong as individuals and as a country. Only the weak give into hatred and act on prejudice. It is not a place to go. The place to go is to be the beacon of the world by setting an example of just how good things can be. We start that journey with ourselves and reach out to help others when we see those standards violated. Take this obligation and it will bring you closer to the more desirable result your question seeks.

    whites will not have the same rights as minorities as they will have the power in the house that rules this country. only the small people will suffer at the reverse of discrimination. Also as long as Black women have attitude they will never have the respect and be treated fairly..

  • I personally think it will be a beautiful day when all people will be viewed by something other than their skin tone. I'm a mix of ethnic people from all over the world, and was born here in the US by parents that were US Citizens for 3 generations on both sides of my family. My mothers side of the family were "native American" people that lived here before the pilgrims that were white They were of the Sioux tribe. If anyone has a true ownership on North America it's The true Native Americans. I'm not being political...I'm just stating a fact. As to your rights as a "white person" and instantly becoming a minority. Tell any of your friends you are gay, and you will feel what it's like to be a white minority in seconds. Just remember if you are a girl, you are still lower on the "Totem poll of life" than a gay man. Oddly men still obtain their position higher than women even in a gay business situation. Odd huh? LOL

    Whites will not be given the same advantages as the minorities are right now. Minorities hate whites because they are more educated and make more money. Whites are swiftly becoming a minority. What are whites going to do about it?

    We will be shat on worse. Think Zimbabwe and South Africa. Land will be stolen from you, family killed, women raped. Kinda what happens to whites in cities in the US right now that have a black majority.

    If the people are wise they would realize that none should be treated better than the other...Equality is key, every human being has equal value.

    Guess we'll start ranting and raving in the streets, stealing, breaking into buildings, etc. You know, like the others do now. It'd only be fair.

    That's already the case in certain Californian cities. The whites in those cities are doing just fine.
