there's racism and racists and all forms of discrimination in virtually every country on the planet..even in societies where most of the people belong to one race .... there will be some people there with racist attitutes towards foreigners..
.. just another fact of life...

Franek:

So what is a minority?)


I think we all know what a minority is in the U.S. and being poor isn't it.
Franek:

My family was too poor to send me to college..


There's a big difference between being poor and being banned from college because of your race.

The only reason I brought up the point was not to say that it's right to live on welfare but because you said in 35 years you've never seen discrimmination. But within the past 35 years there has existed serious discrimmination against certain races. It was not always so simple to just "get a job".

Today is a different story. Today we have equal opportunities and people can choose their fate. But in some cases, parents actually teach their kids that they are not capable of achieving more. Like you said, your parents were instrumental in your success.

Wroclaw Boy:

I have traveled and conducted business in the US of A numerous times and i have never experienced a nation to be so racist in my entire life!! I am only talking about the state of Florida in this particular report. Every fast food restaurant or convenience shop I visited I experienced a black or South American person behind the counter looking back at me with real contempt. On the other hand all business meetings were conducted with white people! a mistory nes pa? Tell me if im wrong please because i would love to hear it. Were always seeing on TV what a wonderful country the US of A is but in reality i think it is somewhat different.


Yea the most racist country (along with Russia :). Reason being, because this is the place where all other people of the world come together, and it causes nothing but problems, and has for 200 years. And FL is one of the sissy states, but the rest of the south is very strong to how they feel. The KKK started there, although it has surpressed in #'s over the years, russia has picked up on it now. And its the same on all sides. Multiculturism=Destruction. Most people do not like being all mixed up, but almost just as many people are afraid to say so. You would be surpized how average people Really felt...

I cant say that it really does.. But it has a lot of truth in it.
I am a business man in Florida.. My top foreman is black.
He is a good man.. He has a wonderful family. But he is somebody that I entrusted to ride herd on the other help.

Now.. Do we socialize? No. He has his life and I have mine.

fair enough. If you have a set of your values and beliefs it is all good until you start imposing them on other people. Then it is called preaching.

WHOA..Hold the phone Miranda. Look over my threads.. Show me just time where I tried to impose my thoughts on others. Surely, I am entitled to speak my piece.
If you look over my posts, you will see where I never used anything derogatory language to anybody. Also you can look back at anyone of my posts and show mw where I used foul language.

it has nothing to do with imposing beliefs on people. In this thread you posted a pic and when people asked you to explain the meaning you avoided it at all cost. Why?

You are saying: well, if you don't understand what I am saying, that is your problem. Well, in a mature discussion it is not. If you are contributing something, you need to clerify things up when people don't understand. You refused to do it. For me it is kind of childish really when one refuses to be clear when talking about something. It signifies weakness and luck of flexibility really.


As for trying to impose you views: get a job directed to Shewolf is indicating that you are speaking down to her and assuming that she has none. Well, even I know that she does.

He's just a bitter old man....leave him be ;)

Franek...have you lived in the south your enitre life? I know many people in N. Florida and they seem to have similar views. I've lived in one of the most rural areas in Florida and the difference in the minorities from NY to FL is significant.

Miranda, Am I typing too fast for you to understand.. # 1 GET A JOB was not directed at Shewolf.. It was a foot note to the unemployed..Why are you always twisting words.

No as a matter of fact I was born and raised in Baltimore. But what does that have to do with anything?
I had the same belief when I lived there.. You guy's are just going to have to get used to the fact that everyone do not share your beliefs.
Yeah, NY, that explains a lot. If I remember right, the name zgubiony means a loser. Both of you have a nice day.

Shewolf..
If by chance I hurt your feelings, I am truly sorry, that was not my intent. There was a subliminal message in that picture..
Maybe I should have explained it to you.
But I am on the defensive in here,so I have to be careful.

LOL, I just may ;) I think I have a cardboard box I can toss down...maybe bust a few knee spins. Ho hum ...exactly. These racial issues are ho hum Frank. I can see why you have your reasons and I'll leave it at that.
