a black man chased out of a white town in the 1990s.

I understand what you are saying but please don't act like if you're white life is easy and if you're black it's unbearable. People of all races have endured obstacles throughout history. Racism exists everywhere. Some whites don't trust blacks in many areas and some blacks don't trust whites. I work in a school that is 91% black and many students admit that racism is a two way street. Racism is a problem that needs to be eradicated. God created all of us in His image. Rodney King said it best "Can't we all just get along?" If we don't at least try to help one another, we are doomed.

I've always thought that if I were an honest, decent black person, I wouldn't be upset with whites for the anger and fear they feel towards black people in general. But rather, I'd be upset with other blacks for instilling that anger and fear in white people. I can't even watch local news and haven't for years. I've travelled and lived in many cities throughout the USA and Canada and it's the same thing on the daily news no matter where you reside: somebody was shot, stabbed, beaten up, raped, robbed, there was a drive by shooting, a home invasion, gang or drug related violence. And invariably, there is in almost every case a picture of an ugly black face that assaults us on our television screens of either a person arrested, or suspected of the crime. Our prisons are over-crowded, busting at the seams predominantly with black people. No wonder I and many, many others are afraid of blacks and want nothing to do with them. They appear to be violent in nature, angry, unruly, without the ability to be civilized. Slavery was an atrocity. There have unfortunately been many atrocities throughout human history. In fact, no culture since the beginning of recorded time has been more victimized than the Jewish people. The blacks all-told have had it easy compared to the Jews, yet the Jews were intelligent enough to rise above it. When prejudice prevented Jews being hired for work, they created their own companies and put themselves to work. They were very successful in doing that. How do you begin to explain the position of blacks? If you want to talk about feelings of entitlement, the blacks are right up there at the beginning of the line, waiting with their hands out. Like it or not, here's the reality: the white race, in which I include the Jewish people, are superior to blacks. How do we know this to be a fact? Every major invention that has prospered man and advanced technology has come from the minds and hands of white people. White people travelled and colonized foreign continents, while the natives on those continents were still living in grass shacks and chucking spears for their dinner. If white people had not settled in those lands and left the natives to their own devices, those natives would still to be no further advanced to this day than they were. That's it in a nutshell. In the course of man's progress there have been some unfortunate consequences. But that progress was inevitable and there is much good that has come of it. And now, in 2009, we can turn on a TV and experience some angry black person lamenting on how hard-done-by he and other black people are, while he's sitting in a modern, climate-controlled studio, with his face and voice being broadcast around the world over satellite. When he leaves the studio, he no doubt gets into his climate-controlled car and returns to his climate-controlled home or office. He might even talk on his cell phone while he's driving. All of these amenities invented, created and developed by white people. Here is what I propose: all white people leave Africa at once and one-way tickets be provided to every black person in the world so that they can return to live in their own land. Whites leave them entirely alone to rise or fall on their own. Time would surely tell just how well black people would do without the influence of superior whites. It may seem horrible that whites dragged primitive blacks out of the jungles of Africa to use them as slaves. But that was a long time ago. There is nobody alive today who enslaved a black person, or who was a slave. People of my generation should not have to pay for this in any way - and frankly, I'm sick of hearing about it. It's time for angry black people to move on and make something of their own lives, if they're at all capable. They have the same opportunities as anybody else in this world and with reverse discrimination in the work-place even more so. Black or white, there is not a single person who escapes this world without battling some form of prejudice. Try being a divorced father fighting your ex-wife for custody of your children. You think a male parent battling a female parent has an even playing field in the family court system? He doesn't and that's a clear form of prejudice. A female practically has to murder, or attempt to murder her children before a male can hope to gain custody and even then the male has go to great lengths to prove it. You don't think losing your children in that way causes devastating pain? You could take the position of writing off the legal system and women in general. Or, you could realize that you married the wrong person and go out and find the right person to remarry and have another family with. The point is, we all suffer at times in life, in one situation or another and there are far too many examples to mention. But life goes on. Those who are successful and reasonably happy in life are those who press on with the life they've been given and endeavor to make something good out of it. Those who stand on the sidelines with their hands out, all the while bitching, whining and complaining about how hard-done-by they are, or worse stealing from and/or brutalizing other people who are trying to make something good of their lives, will never amount to be anything more than an ugly thorn in our society. Lastly, instead of blacks calling themselves African American, how about just being an American? It's obvious you're black by looking at you and/or listening to the sound of your voice. African American is a redundant reference that was clearly designed to be nothing other than divisive. How can blacks justify being deliberately divisive and then complain when they don't feel included, or treated like everyone else? Aside from being an American first, how about just being a decent person?

I apologize in advance if any of this begins to make too much sense.
