Fuck Whitey!

Racism is baffling, but specifically, racism against WHITE people? Unfortunately, this is a subject that I'm not super familiar with. That actually, kind of saddens me because I'm mostly white. Mostly.
   
     I've never really been sectioned out of anything because I'm white. I lived in a hood-ass area in Pontiac where I was one of the only white people in the area, and yet, no one really fucked with me cause I was white, surprisingly enough. So this will unfortunately be a shorter posting.

     White people have generally been the racists throughout history, near genocide of the native americans, enslavement of the africans, the irish "niggers", and the internment camps and concentration camps of WW2,  and now the lumping of all muslims/middle-eastern as "terrorists". And I'll I've ever heard in hatred towards the white, was generally justifiable. Doesn't mean it's right, just means I can see where they're coming from. In my experience though, the most racist thing you could insult a white person with is "racist" and watch them cling and defend why they're not racist. I'm guilty myself in this. "I have black friends, I like oriental girls, I love Mexican food, and I watch Japanese cartoons!"

      I did get away from the point, there are examples of white people racism. Walking down the road from my old apartment I was shouted at "Watch where you're walking, white boy." To this day I'm still confused to if he was warning me, that the neighborhood wasn't safe for white people, or if he was threatening me to see if I was gonna punk-out of a standoff, that probably would have ended with one of us dead. I don't know, I didn't bother myself with it, I lit a smoke and kept walking. Easiest way to deal with that shit is just roll it off. Racism has no power when unless you let it.
 
     My friend Cupcake and his old roomie Big Country got jumped out side of a liquor store, I wasn't there, I don't know the details, all I know is they are both large white men, and the people doing the jumping were black. I can't fathom any reason you would jump these two, they're large, both over 6 foot, both breaking weight of over 200, both intimidating looking men covered in tattoos and piercings, one dreadlocked, the other mohawked. These are men you cross the street two blocks down to avoid in the normal life, what could possess you to start shit with them other than that you and your friends are of a different race and have higher numbers.

EDIT:Big Country was not with Cupcake when the jumping occurred. I was misinformed. It was Cupcake vs 3 black men.

      It doesn't make sense to me. It really doesn't. I understand the white man has been a dick pretty much since the beginning, but stop. Don't continue to spread pointless hate, be better than the white man. Rise above, knock the shit off. You just make yourself look bad. If nothing else, use your hatred for whitey to be BETTER than whitey. You can do it. I believe in you.
