Uncustomary Hiccups

Sooooooo... There's this recent story. Two white policemen were beating a black man....(everyone sighs, it's almost like *excuse me, can someone please come restrain these two* *yaaaaaaawn*) Will anyone get off their but and do something for other than themselves.

BUT that's not the best part. After it occurred and they were punished, these two wondering representations of law SUED for reverse discrimination. They felt that the had been overly punished because the man they beat was black. PLEASE! And guess what! They won, they won 1.6 million. And people wonder why African Americans don't like the law.

BUT! Let's think about reverse discrimination for a sec here. THERE IS NO SUCH THING. Look at the post before this. But if racism is defined in terms of power, then it's not possible for reverse discrimination to occur. Think of all those people out there who think it's all about skin color. It's so simple to think of racism that way, HOW could racism be that simple...we live in a complex society which produces COMPLEX PROBLEMS, no matter what Bush tells you.

Will someone rescue me?

AND, Fortune Cookies.
1) they were created by AMERICANS
2) they are used in Asian restaurants because the Caucasians expected
3) Stereotype the Chinese Culture
4) AND Should not be used for Dance Marathon Fundraising.....Well at least get rid of the pseudo asian font on the poster

And the girl who created it was like....well I showed it to friends and they were ok.....where they asian friends? And she still feels like they weren't offensive and doesn't understand how we could be. PLEASE, do people use their brains anymore? NO! It's not the intent, but what we are worried about is the INTERPRETATION.

Do you think I like it when guys come up to me and say, *I think you are hot cause you are asian* NO! because all he is thinking about is subservience, foot massages, and hot sex. He's not thinking about me. Asshole.
