It isn't hard to treat everyone equally.

People are equal before the law. But socially, "Birds of a Feather flock together."

I live in the most racially mixed State in the USA. But even here in the islands, that's the way it is.

I think that the race-baiters like Sharpton and Jackson aid and abet the problem wherever they go. I asked here on this board a week or so ago....Do whites have a White Congressional Caucus? Do whites have White Congressional Breakfast meetings? How about Affirmative Action. Does it work only one way?

Or if there are more of any color on a baseball, football, basketball team, or any kind of work team, should the percentage of blacks to whites or browns be a measure of who should be on a team?

Is it necessary that Blacks say Black American? Should Mexicans say Mexican American. Should whites say White American?

The whole thing is just asinine.

How long will it take until we are all just plain American.

IF we are all actually citizens of America, that is. ILLEGALS can go back home. Come back when they have proper documentation, and want to become a citizen.

However, I do admit I wouldn't want to be the only white person in an all black neighborhood.

Of course if the choice were between an upscale black neighborhood and a crime ridden white neighborhood it would be different.
