You Tube Racist Rants, Death Threats and Two Expelled White Girls ~ FML

Two minors from Gainesville High School in Gainesville, Fla., posted a nearly 14-minute-long racist rant on YouTube ultimately resulting in their expulsion from school. Police had to be called in to respond to death threats, presumably by the offended party.

Here is the video:


I am pretty tired of commenting such occurrences on a racist by racist basis but I will say one thing. I appreciate these white (Latina) girls coming out and saying what is on the minds of many white people. Especially those raised in suburbia that believe everything is equal and that poor people chose to be that way by sitting on their lazy asses all day, smoking weed, drinking forties and surviving off welfare check etc. Privileged people that take it for granted the idea that they have more and think everyone begins at the same starting point. You can be as mad as you want with them but that is what some people out there think and it's important that it was brought to light.

I have frequently been accused of disliking black people but perhaps now I can use this moment to illustrate my point concisely. I love being black and I would not trade in my blackness for anything but I understand one thing. The actions of a black man in public are not interpreted in a neutral manner. The default position is that black people are useless and any errant behavior is used to validate that position. For some reason the actions of the few, helped by constant portrayal in media, speak for the many. Arabs can you hola at me? Since a few Arabs executed acts of terror somehow all Arabs have paid the price. The same is not true of white people. Let me explain:

Example
A white person gets robbed by a black man -------> they may conclude, that the default is true and that ALL black people act in such a manner ------->All black people suffer.

A white person gets robbed one day by a white man --------> They will rationalize the incident and argue that it is just ONE white man. They will even bring into play economic class and motive to justify is actions as an individual and explain that his actions in no way reflect the general behavior of white people.

That is the nature of racism. A byproduct of it is that the victimized group all cease to be individuals they simply get clumped in one homogenous grouping (niggers, jews, wetbacks etc).

A lot of what the girls said has some validity to it. The attitude that you will drop out of school and live off food stamps, the lack of enthusiasm toward education and the celebration of ignorance are all issues that need to be examined but they are not issues unique to black people. The are issues that plague certain, often less well off people who due to expense and accessibility don't see the practicality and use of going to school and getting educated.

HOWEVER.....

The idea that the girls believe they are better than another group of people based on where they were raised and how they talk is just a snotty, bratty attitude which probably explains why they to opted to make a youtube video. It is probably the only way anyone would listen to them in the first place. If you have an issue, express it properly and in a reasonable manner.

With regards their black best friend. I hope he is ashamed of himself . I blame him for not making a meaningful contribution in these women's lives as a real black man and not white-sanctioned subset of black people that wear Cosby Sweaters and speak like white people to be accepted.

As for the Nigger vs Black people distinction, where did they get it from?


Remember when we laughed at this????


This was a good chance to bring people to one table and discuss the matter at hand but the school chickened out washed their hands of the racists kids. The school forfeit it responsibility to educate misguided youth. Youth whose views and opinions are primarily shaped by their immediate surroundings, influences and role models. I disgraceful move by the school that nobody will learn anything from.- #shutdowntheschool #cowards

Observe the racist dog!
