I wish that every racist white person could be black for 1 week

WF-

My point was that racism goes both ways here in the US. That point could be expanded to include the fact that some black "leaders" perpetuate racism to perpetuate their status in society and in the community.

NATYMIKE,are you attending or going to apply to law school?I was just curious to know your plans.

a chip on your soldier aint gonna get you anywhere....

I got a degree and I am white... still gotta prove myself though... and I have been beaten to jobs by other races... don't make me bitter or think it's down to color though....

Skin Color has little influence on professional jobs and many non-professional jobs nowadays - and you're paranoid if you think it has...

Rizzo, I will be applying in several months.

heres a little story--, one of my dads friends graduated from UT law school with honors. Several of his peers graduated from TSU law school (Texas Southern). The average gpa to get into UT is 3.6, the average for TSU is 2.4--(by far the lowest in Texas), by the way, not that it matters, but TSU is 97% black.

The guy who graduated from UT back in the 80's with high honors was passed up for many job opportunites. His peers that graduated from TSU were hired right away because there were laws that gave them advantages. The TSU grads kept getting unqualified promotions, while the UT grad was left in the dust.

In the late 80's the UT grad filed a reverse discrimination lawsuit and won.

I'm a little discouraged knowing that I might have to file a reverse discrimination lawsuit to ensure that I am treated fairly.

Good point.

Many more black people are racist against white people than white people are against blacks...

Too many black people have attitude. I didn't hurt your people. I am sorry for the treatment the black man and other races experienced in the past... I cannot change it...

But don't go around thinking it's easy for the white guy... it isn't... I applied to about 20 before I got a job following university... and I have black friends that were employed by Andersen, PwC and other posh places.... but I always congratulated them and felt good for them... my chance came a bit later.......

racism fucks me off... and nowadays it is the black man that is the biggest racist of all....

Peace to you as well havoc. No hard feelings. It's a fucked up issue for everyone, it really is. Personally I've tested for many fire departments several times and always finished in the top percentage. I never got in because of politics. It totally sucks. Then agaib, they were choosing between about 1,000 people so they can literally pick and choose what they want.

No hard feelings. Peace.

Your first post you said you wear a suit, have a great job with a law firm and drive a Beemer.....right? Why would you want to work for a fire department? Sounds like you got it going on already. I don't klnow how much firemen make where you are but my buddy is pretty muched tapped at 40K and thats putting in overtime.

From my experiences that seems to be true.

DOES ANYBODY READ THROUGH THREADS ANYMORE!!??

I am not the black lawyer I hypothetically used in the thread. That was a hypothetical SITUATION.

Why don't you fucking read through some shit before you post something that makes you look like a total fucking moron.

Damn.

A.D.D anyone??

ADD anyone??

First off I did see the just imagine.........I thought you were the person I was suppossed to be imaging myself being...... I didn't read Psychos response after the first line so in turn I didn't read your response. By the way who says working for a law firm equals lawyer?

So why are you playing these fucking moronic games anyway if you aren't black? Do you want to be black? Hasn't this dead horse issue been over and done about 50 fucking times in the last couple of months. Pick another issue to sound off about that you probably aren't going to be able to change?

How did you know I have ADD?????
