Them Damn Illegals I tell yah! They are going to overrun our damn country! No wonder were going to hell in a hand-basket! (actually that sounds kind of fun)
The N&O did it this morning also. "So far, voters tend to be male, white" in the Triangle section. Sorry, I don't see this as racist....facts is facts. :?
In a related story, men with military themed profile pictures voted overwhelmingly to keep "outsiders" away from their neighborhood during Halloween. :lol: P.S. Dear God, it's only Wednesday?!
I just don't see the point in citing race in regards to anything, I think it divides people. I get annoyed when I am asked for my race on surveys, forms, applications, school paperwork, etc. I am likely to choose "other" or just leave it blank. If we are all supposed to be getting beyond race in this country, why continually bring it up?
Definition of racism: 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. In other words a bias "BELIEF". This article doesn't express a particular belief of the white race, it was stating a fact on information collected. Now, if it stated that the "SUPERIOR WHITE men......yada...yada", that could and would be taken as a racist and biased statement. Using the term or description "white" just doesn't do it and you've made much ado about nothing. Facts are facts. Its also a well known fact that there are a larger number of females students at UNC enrolled versus male students. Should we take this fact as shovanistic or just factual statement?
