That don't sound like a race card. It sound like they had beef.

I agree with you bro..... \nI'm not even white and I think that the "race card" is so stupid..... it used to have meaning, and now everybody wants to blame you guys..... for everything.  Don't let stupid people bring you down.

Mckinney, Public Official or not, needs to learn when to deflate her head. Race is not an issue but, isn't it convenient that, that excuse comes up? Isn't it convenient for an African American to scream that? We are not the racist, they are, meaning the African Americans whom scream that. The Racist card has expired so Mckinney get over it. \n\nRespectfully,\n\n2nd Lt. Tobacco III, Vincent W. \nUS Army

It's to make Blacks feel better about themselves.

Because of the "one drop rule" that has been ingrained in black people's history in America.  It says that if you have one drop of black blood, you are black.  Also, maybe they just identify more with the black side of them rather than the other side.  It's their prerogative.

Because most of the are afraid to get their ass kicked!!! If you say that word around a black person and you are white you will get beat the hell up that is why they don't say in front of us!!!! That word holds a hurtful meaning and a terrible pain of a past that we as African Americans had. It was made up to make us feel less and made to be less. It is very disrespectful to use that word around blacks if you are white, alot of people know this and use it when blacks are not around knowing that it is sensitive and hurtful to us but then claim to love and enjoy our company.. most of the time I have a sixth sense to racism and will know if someone is really not feeling me...\n\n\nI just came back and read what Bronson wrote and you have a serious problem, You can not blame everything on the other races.Let me drop some real knowledge on your ass.. I see that you wrote that blacks in your neighborhood hate whites okay well the door swings both ways just leave each other alone, all that mess you wrote about Jews and MLK you have to be out your mind!!! Martin Luther King Jr. was for the civil rights of black people thus called the civil rights movement. He was not a racist and did not hate whites, hell they even marched with him. So where do you get off saying this mess? You sound like you are rasict Bronson and you need to get some serious help, yes ANY race is wrong if you use rascist words and act as if you are better than others. But keep it real europeans(whites) took africans from their home land, pushed the indains out and took land from the hispanic people, placed japense in camps. So if you really want to place the blame look at what your anestors have done and what some people are still doing. Don't point the blame until you know... now I love everybody if you are good to me but you must know the TRUTH so you will be set free. Take care Bronson....

This is what wikipedia says elitism is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elitism\n\nCan I have 10 points please? coz I deserve them the most. This is because sometimes I write a brilliant answer and people don't chose me as best answer. Thank you.

1. Like other people have said, it's to commend each others performance and boost confidence\n\n2. To qbqbqb: It's not a black thing, there are white basketball players too. Don't be racist.

I am Black and I know some of my fellow people do that. I personally think its silly I know there is racism in the world but you have to work ur hardest to make the best for you. But I don't think its only Black people I am sure other races feel the same way. A lot of people are prejudice against all types of people Its not just a Black thing anymore... have you seen the movie Crash?

It is reverse racism, and I do not agree with it. Some white people feel guilty over their ancestors' role in the history and let black people get away with it, and some black people fully exploit the situation. I think no one should use any derogatory terms towards another person. We should all try to let go of the past and move on towards a better tomorrow.

It's called racial profiling. It's illegal, but it happens, and not just to minorities. I'm white and was driving in a predominately black neighborhood and was asked the same question!

Not just non caucasion....black men and those who wish they were. Yes, it is a very popular "pose" here as well. I dont think it is that they are holding their goods. It is that they are holding their pants up. They wear them so low that they have to keep them up somehow, and by holding their crotch, they can keep their pants from falling to their knees and maintaining a studly stance. It serves a function as well as fashion. Lol!!!!!

I'm African American.  And there are racists within my race.  There are also racists within the Caucasian race.  Also, Oriental and Latino.  I guess squeaky wheels get the grease.  Most of us that are not racist, of all colors and all races, are too busy living our lives and having fun with the different people of these races; mingling with them and living in peace.  While every waking day of these poor peoples' lives, they spend trying to find ways to hurt or make us guys feel bad or inferior.  Could you imagine, long ago, being a woman and not being able to vote?  i.e., Knowing damn well you're much smarter than the jerk off drunk idiot councilman who you work for.  This is the control of racism.  Luckily, women, African-Americans, some poor whites and Asians have pulled themselves up by their bootstraps and continuously fight to make it right.  And just remember, they wake up being racists.  We (non-racists) wake up accepting everyone until they give us a reason not to.\nGod Bless You All

THEY (legal and non legal immigrants) threw out the race card first.  Notice they are all for breaking the law?  They want a free ticket in to this country, expect to be handed jobs and  health benefits (free, I might add) automatically, and so far our government has obliged them.  It doesn't look like our goverment is really against illegal immigration.  It's a lie and a sad thing.  I am totally against illegal immigration.  If you want to come here that's great I'm not against that, just do it legally.

Ya...the PC is overdone.  The "race" card is overdone.  The "war" on anything is over.  "For the sake of the children" is over.  Sometimes what it is, is just ,what it is, and there's no other way of distorting facts or hiding behind words.  Brown or Mexican or any of that, is not a "race".  They are a "blend" of the same darned ancestors I have.  They are killing people in Africa because they aren't "black" enough and killing people in Mexico because they are "too" brown.  I doubt there's too many that are a true "pure" race of anything.  I have American Indian in me but you'd be hard pressed to "see" it.  But you can with my oldest daughter.  They have a "rule" here in certain states ,with the 1 drop rule.  1 drop of African blood makes you "black".  You can be snow-white, blonde, blue-eyed and be "black".  Yet you can be 99 9/10ths white and not be "white".  Even though you "look" white.  I do remember the "latin lover" and the dudes from Mexico don't look like Antionio Bandaras.  Even though they are supposidly of the same "race".  I mean please.......5ft fat Jose' is no stud muffin.  Gina Lolabridgeada(sp?) is no Maria Gonzalas.  Why?  Because the really beautiful ones are of a "blended" race.\n\nThese guys that HATE Americans.....you couldn't PICK an American from a crowd of people.  You guys that HATE "whites" ,couldn't tell the difference between an American "white" from a Canadian "white" or Australian "white" or a European "white".

They don't have a Black Character so they  must be racists.\nThe same way BET CHANNEL doesn't have any white people on it, nor do they have any WHITE commericals?..\n\nWelcome to the real world buddy. But my answer to your questions is , I do not think their racists. They love your money no matter what color you are..

I take offense to you accusing being picked because you are black.  Why are you so down on non black race?  I play basketball and we pick teams before we play.  Who we choose to pick first is who we think has the better game.  If you don't like basketball you shouldn't be there.  I have never heard anyone complain of being picked first whether they are black, brown, green or red.  Thumbs down
