Why do some white racists do this?
Yesterday me and my boyfriend went to the movies. When we were leaving, walking back to the car some white men started to yell some racial slurs at us. We were in a predominantly white area so there is alot of racism there, anyways the men were saying things like "Go back to Africa" and "Go back to where you belong. I ignored it but my bf has a temper so I had to calm him down and drag him away. The last thing I could here them saying was "Yeah n***er listen to you n***er b**ch and go back to where you belong."
I've encountered alot of racism in my life and the one thing alot of white racists have said that everone just needs to go back to their own country.
But wouldn't they have to go back to Europe if every one had to go back to where they came from?
Why would I actually make this up. I live in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and we went to a place called the Fox Bay Grill, anyone who lives White Fish Bay can tell you how racist it is...
Jewel64052, your an @ss and yes it did happen. We went there because they serve dinner there and why not kill 2 birds with one stone.
Ask me anything, no I wasn't acting ghetto. So what if I used improper grammer, who cares? It's not like I'm in school or anything...

white people are too ashamed to believe in your story lol... they are also too ashamed and say black people exaggerate racism which ain't true... they say we are the most racist but we did not kill 6 million Jews and millions of disabled and non blue eyed people.... they call Muslims evil but really nobody has done evil as them.... they slaved blacks and only just over 30 years ago they short Martin Luther king and we had to stand on busses....
there is going to be a lot of made upstuff about black people being racist but don't belive it... look at robert shelton he got 6 thums up already

Your last statement certainly is true. Just ask any Native American. I'm pretty sure they really didn't want to sell off Manhattan Island for a handful of beads and some cheap-*** trade blankets. I'm also pretty sure that, given the choice, Africans would most definitely NOT have chosen to be shipped over the Atlantic packed 300 to a ship-hold in inhuman conditions to be sold into slavery. If I were there, I might have responded like this: "Well maybe if your poor f***in' redneck cracker-*** family hadn't abducted Africans to do work they were too g**damn fat and lazy to do themselves, then Africans wouldn't be here, inbred trailer trash Klan motherf***er!!" That being said, I do certainly salute you for your civility. I can't say I would have been as restrained as you were. PS sorry for the obscenity. That's just how I feel.

I take it that you are black, well I'm white. I dosn't mater if a person is black, white, red, yellow, or a little green person from Mars, you are a human being, except the for Martian, he's from Mars. You have as much right to be here as I have. People should remember that the North American Natives (Indians) were here before white people or black people ever stepped on this soil.
I hate racism, this earth is just so big, people should all get along.
Your're right, if the blacks had to go back to Africa, then we would have to go back to where we come from. Only the North Americans Natives could stay.
And for your answer "Why do some white racists do this? Because they're ignorant, hateful and not very intelligent.

In a perfect world, people should be allowed to go anywhere they want, hassle free. But this isn't a perfect world and I don't think it ever will be. In order for it to be close, we are all going to have to take responsibility for our races actions...which means white people must reprimand their own peers for disrespecting their entire race by acting like f*cking morons - as well as the black race doing the same. I'm sorry, but Jewel has a point - we whites know better than to go into black areas because we might not even get out ALIVE, much less the slurs and insults. It comes from both sides, so we all need to do something within our own cultures. In the meantime, as ugly as it sounds, stay on your own side of the tracks...idiots are everywhere, so dont go looking for it.

I agree with what you are saying. I never had to put up with it though. However, white people aren't the only ones in this.
I am black myself (Not american though) but I have to say that black people are HIGHLY racist too. Back in school, black people would talk pure trash about white people at times in the classrooms, asking the teachers questions like "Why do white people do such and such", "Why do white people smell like wet dogs", "Why do white people act so corny"? You know, off the wall questions like that in front of the white people that were in the class.........All I could do was shake my head.
The white people didn't say anything when the black people were talking about them, but if ever a white person said something about a black, he or she would get jumped. That's not right.
School is not the only place I've seen this happen either. It's on tv real bad. Black people put down white people all the time on tv. You can't help but see it.
You have to look at both sides here. Alot of black people do bring alot of those bad labels on themselves, but it's not right to be a racist against anyone. Saying things like "*igger" and "go back to africa" is totally uncalled for.
I've always been middle ground. Not because I am mixed race but because I see both sides of the story and I see that neither one of the parties are innocent in this.

Stay out of WHITE fish bay, I guess.
I thought stuff like this only happened in KKK country down south.
And I think we should all go back where we came from. If you are of mixed descent you have to be cut into appropriate pieces and sent back to your respected motherlands... This is how stupid these people are.

ok, rober shelton is a complete as,shole, and ppl like him dont deserve to live in a great country like this
there will always be racists in the world, and the worst thing a person can do is hold an eternal grudge and be racist back. u did the right thing by not letting them get to you and preventing other things that couldve happened.
and for that person who said black people are the most racist, ur wrong. it was wrong what those student are doing to ur friend, becuz like i said eternal grudges shouldnt be held for an entire race

Good point! They're just ignorant. I hear that idiotic "Go back to Africa" and I wonder if they are at all acquainted with two things called history and slavery. Like all African-Americans came here of their own free will. I hate that kind of ignorance.

I love how whites deny other people's experience because it doesn't happen to them. It's like men pooh-poohing sexism because THEY'VE never had it happen to them.
I get **** all the time about going back to my country, even when they get it wrong (I'm multiracial). Give me a freakin' break. "You're too sensitive." "You're making too big a deal out of this."
Classic strawman attack. Don't want to deal with what you're saying, so I'll put you on the defensive, you crazy woman!

You know you are right that is nasty and uncalled for, but when I lived in a larger city i had friends all over and when I went into a predominatly black hood, i would get to hear that all the time except it would be talking shi/t because I was white, I get your point but stupidity cares less what color you are.

My best guess is that they were young men trying to show off to each other and look tough.
But, as I'm sure you know, when young black men are in a group, they most assuredly lip off to whites, too, for the exact same reasons.
