I thought we had gotten past this race thing in the U.S., so, why are there all these "race" questions in Y/A?
IE Affirmative Action, EEO, EOT, Civil Rights Act of 1964 etc...........and by the way, we live in an Atlanta suburb where people of all races and colors live together. The common denominator here is education, not race.

You are right about education not race being the common denominator - most of the time. The exception are the people who considered themselves elite and race can become a factor. Because Obama wants to divide our country is the reason there is so much more about race than when Bush was President. Certain liberals are yelling racism whenever they start to lose and racism will get the black people out to vote. I have noticed much more racial tension with the black people since it is very apparent Obama is going to fail America. It is sad, Obama could have been a great uniter.

Racism will never die out; wars will never be eliminated; male/female discrimination will continue no matter what "legislation" is passed. Humans will continue to disparage those who are different, wage war against hated countries or populations, etc as these emotions and feelings are passed from generation to generation. The best that can happen is to hope that we all get along together.
That being said, those hopes are repeatedly decimated by an extremely biased media; by race mongers such as Sharpton/Jackson/White Supremists/Skinheads; by parents who pass down their own hate-filled prejudices to their children.
Take a look at the Middle East...these people have been fighting and killing each other for thousands of years. Nothing has, can, or will change that. Unfortunately, I fear that the same constancy bears true with the rest of mankind regardless of nationality or race.

If he's stumbled directly to blame then he ought to ought to pay an identical effects as the different American could ought to. i've got not got faith he must be thrown out of soccer nevertheless, a guy nevertheless needs to have the potential to earn money. Now if he has violated the words of his settlement like getting put in detention center, then this is his fault.

Unfortunately, the Obama administration's handling of racial matters is what is bringing it up.
DOJ dropping a clearcut racism case.
The mass. police officier who was doing his job was stupid.
20 years in a church that hates white people.
Seems anti-white to me. Maybe you should address that question to the white house.
