Prejudice is alive and well in America! If "everyone" is not equal, then "no one is equal". Amazingly, and sadly, most of the racial prejudice I have observed in the last 20 years, has come from the black community. Especially the black church, (that claims to be Christian) and the "Black Politicians".

If I lose viewers and subscribers because of this article, then "so be it", but I simply will not tolerate prejudice. I will not tolerate it against blacks, and neither will I tolerate it against whites. I will not tolerate a mentality that makes blacks step to the back of the bus, neither will I tolerate a mentality that supports "afirmative action".

As I stated before, "If we are not "all" equal, then "no one" is equal. To put it short, equality is for "EVERY" American citizen, not to mention "Child of God".

It is very disheartening to hear someone who would campaign to be the president of the United States, pull the race card against his opponent for no reason at all. His assertion is that his opponent "will" use racial statements in the future. Although he has never made such a statement in his life.

Racial prejudice and discrimination will never stop as long as this kind of warped leadership is allowed to continue. All I can say about this kind of subtle, subliminal hate speech is: "It Works". It turns blacks against whites, and whites against blacks.

I guess I am the typical white person that has been referred to in the presidential campaign. The only problem is, I've been mis-represented. I believe that the typical white person (like myself) simply likes people who are likable. I believe they return good for good, and retaliate against evil, no matter what the persons color is.

People are simply people! You reap what you sow. Treat someone with kindness, and you'll get kindness in return. However, start whipping out the race card and you'll find that all it acomplishes is, building a wall between us. This wall is already quite tall and thick! In closing, I'll quote Ronald Reagan:

"Mr. Obama, TEAR DOWN THIS WALL!"

Discrimination in "any" form is truly Ugly, when it suits you! When one says the word "discrimination", we immediately think of "black people", but in truth, these days, "that" falls way down the list of those who are being discriminated against.

Personally, I have a low tolerance level for any form of negative discrimination. Negative discrimination should "Never" be justified! But, if you look around, you will see that prejudice and discrimination are alive and well in 2008.

Discrimination is alive and well against "women", "Senior Citizens", "people who smoke", "people who drink", "people who drive SUV's", and "people who are overweight". Does this sound ridiculus to you? Read the dictionary definition of the word "Discrimination"

discrimination >noun 1 the action of discriminating against people. 2 recognition of the difference between one thing and another. 3 good judgement or taste.

Does it still sound ridiculus to you now? People allow discrimination when they think they are the beneficiaries, but little do they know that they are it's worst victims.

Many women claim that "PMS" is the reason for occasional unacceptable behavior. And when they benefit from it, it suits them. However, although untrue, when one runs for president, the rest of society views her as someone who is mentally unstable one week out of every month. (they created this image themselves)

Similarly, blacks welcomed "afirative action", but by doing so, even though it's untrue, they send a message to the rest of society that they can not make it on their own merits and need some special advantage. If you are going to accept advantages that should only apply to the retarded and handicaped, what would you expect? (read the dictionary definition of "discrimination again)

Do "I" hate women and black people? "NOOooo" on the contrary! But, Who ever came up with the "PMS" argument and afirmative action, surely does. They are both designed to make you look inferrior to the rest.

My point is, Afirmative action "IS" discrimination! (Read the definition ...again) "PMS" "IS" discrimination. (Read the definition ...again)

Personally, I would be deeply insulted if it were ruled that my children would receive special treatment because of their racial background. "My children are as good as anyone else, and will succede on their own merits"

What about "Fat People"? Are we "really" going to start punishing them by making them pay extra on airlines etc..? Are we "really" going to charge the woman who is 4'3" tall and weighs 250 pounds, but let the man with the muscular built who is 6'11" tall and weighs 250 Pounds go at regular price?

Would it be fair to charge that man more than you? (how much do you weigh?) READ THE DICTIONARY DEFINITION OF "DISCRIMINATION" AGAIN! It's not all Black and White. Most of it is so subtle that you don't even see it!

Tonight, my wife and I attended our daughters "awards ceremony". She's graduated. Granted, that's reason enough to be proud, but she actually walked away with more awards and scholarships than any other person in her school.

Her classmates told her (in a light hearted manor) if they heard her name called one more time, they were going to throw tomatoes at her. All I can say is, she burned the midnight oil, lost sleep, worked "very" hard, and then acheived.

Many scholarships were given out tonight, but one in particular was embedded in my mind. There were two, very proud parents giving away a scholarship to the one who most resembled their son. The sad part is, their son is dead.

He graduated from this very same high school, then enlisted in the armed forces. He was sent to Iraq, where two months later, he was killed by a roadside bomb. The report was that he intentionally gave his life to save two other comrads. No doubt, a "true" hero!

The recepient of the scholarship for the one most like their son, went to a "Black youth". The parents of the soldier were white! So it's obvious that their choice was not based on skin color, and probably not based on religion.

The truly, truly sad fact is, when the audience applauded the distributing of this award, all of the "Muslims" and people from the middle east, sat with their arms folded and did "not" applaud. (how disrespectful and rude)

I'll point out that all of these same Muslims and people from the middle east were recipients of scholarships also, mostly due only to their race or religion. This particular award (from these two parents) was based mainly on Academic achievement.

Am I being ridicules? No! You see, they have been offered access to computer programs and such, that actually "Give them the answers" to tests etc... Simply because of their race. Something my daughter was not privlidged to take advantage of.

In America, there is a certain Etiquette. If there are two greiving parents on the stage, trying to honor their "dead" son by being generous, "You applaud Damn It!"

If you are not going to say: "Thank you for liberating my relatives back home" and if you are not going to say: "Thank you for the advantages you've given me, even above your own children so I can live here" And if your not going to say "Thank you for giving me the freedom to "HATE YOU" right here in your own country", then at least have the decency to applaud the parents of a dead child!

Don't get me wrong. Be kind to who you will be kind. Offer special advantages if you like. Just make sure these advantages are open for my children as well. Otherwise, that is true discrimination.
