    Even funnier, imagine if this outcry was actually reasonable and not something you just decide to be angry about. The fact of the matter is not one single person cares about any one of the 3 things you mentioned until it's Black History Month, then it suddenly becomes a problem.

    Now let look at the currency question and Jackson.

    He was a early Trump those with enough gut to lead men into battles and killed men in duals over them daring to insulted his wife.

    The Indians who fought with him was double cross by him and force to go on the trail of tears along with the other Indians that was move west of the Mississippi river and he was the first and the last President that did not support SC rulings.

    Other then providing one of the few high points for Americans during the war of 1812 he did little of worth in his life.

    They clearly can.

    Any race can fit these definitions.

    https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/racism

    1
    :(*) a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race
    2
    a :(*) a doctrine or political program based on the assumption of racism and designed to execute its principles
    b :(*) a political or social system founded on racism
    3
    :(*) racial prejudice or discrimination

    A lot of Europeans drink a lot, I don't see why Irish should be singled out.

    Singled out because they're the most drunk. A crew a drunken louts. The country has been going to hell in a hand-basket since they began to arrive in numbers. Potato famine ? I don't think so, it was a ruse to invade the country and bring the Papacy along for the ride.

    If you're Polish, German or Italian they're not null and void. The fact of the matter is these things exist, though I imagine the average person wouldn't know because learning how to Google basic things doesn't seem to be very high on their list of priorities. All despite the fact that I found these in under 30 seconds.

    The alcohol consumption rate of Ireland, and Britain are hardly different.

    I don't see why Irish should be stereotyped as a loutish drunken Whiskey drinker, while British are stereotyped as sophisticated Tea drinkers who enjoy tea parties.

    The stupidity that comes from conservatives at times is absolutely astounding. YOu have white history month,every month out of the year.

    My god the pathetic things some of you choose to complain about and then pretend you are not racist is ridiculous

    I'm not Italian, but I can see why the Italians wanted to ban the Soprano cast stars from the Columbus day parade.

    How do you figure Irish Catholics are responsible for bringing down the United States?

    The more Irish Catholics a state has the more educated, and intelligent they tend to be, such as Massachusetts.

    Now, Irish Protestants are a different story, they largely settled in Appalachia, where you find the least educated, and least intelligent Whites.

    I always picked George Washington Carver for whatever Black History Month shenanigans that we were forced to do. It was easier to cling to one person year later year after year than try to manufacture some new way to make someone who was a footnote to history seem like something greater than they were.

    So it's not enough to be free and to give credit where it's due? It has always been enough for me. If this were a country essentially established by Africans, and where all that blesses our lives comes from the sacrifices, inventiveness, faith and labors of Africans. Then what would be so wrong that it was a forgone conclusion that honors for it all should be to those Africans. The problem isn't an under representation of a race. Affirmative Action is a stranger to honors due. The problem is idol worship. Or in this case, self worship. When I read the Declaration of Independence, I don't see or hear a white European man talking. I hear divine, eternal concepts to be embraced. America is a matter of heart and spirit, not image.

    What is it with people who think using the Morgan Freeman clip is supposed to suddenly change everything or negate everything else?

    It seems as though every time the BHM debate comes up, someone always finds the above interview with Morgan Freeman and uses that for their argument, EVERY SINGLE TIME. The argument has the tone of "Morgan Freeman thinks this way, why can't the rest of you?" which basically says he speaks for all 42 million black people in America.

    Maybe because it's all that is needed. Now that you've seen it (multiple times, I take it), you can consider what he said and either accept it as a reason why black history month is stupid, or come up with a rebuttal.

    So far, that rebuttal hasn't been made.

    The fact is that peoples prefer the America established by White, Judaeo-Christian males.

    No apologies. That's the way it is.

    Of course we can always dig up tokens here and there but, the people who made it happen were not tokens.

    And Israel is a Jewish State,
    so says the U.N. General Assembly 2/3rds vote.

    All goyim are the same to Moi.


    I do believe in progressive gov't helping the economically disadvantaged. Sustenance, housing, education, jobs, etc.
    I do not believe in liberal gov't that would pin such gov't aid to race, gender, sexual preference and print ballots in foreign languages.

    It has nothing to do with the color of one's skin.
    More to do with the content of their mind and character.

    And a color blind society should not be counting, color! Just to make sure :lol:

    I hope that sufficiently challenges your assertion that I do not like "blacks". Now gimme a "like"

    My rebuttal, first, is wondering why thinking that one Morgan Freeman clip is treated as the end all be all by people who only use that clip because it aligns with their opinion, when any other time they couldn't care less. Another thing is that BHM, originally called Negro History Week when it started in 1926, was made for e sole purpose of educating blacks on their history when no one else would.

    In addition, we as black people don't want, need or care for the approval of white folks in order to celebrate a month that's sole purpose is to educate, as it has been for 90+ years.

    To stop asking why BHM exists for one. The question comes up literally every year, especially around this time. Another thing is to stop asking "well, if blacks get one how come other people don't have one," made worse by the fact that they in fact do have their own respective months. Made even worse by the fact that this information is easily found via Google, to the point where I actually dropped some links to other months in this very thread, I think they're either on page 5 or 6.
