Hang-em high?
Blacks have a complex that everything with a noose is meant for them.
They can call whites crackers and whitey but if whites use the N word it's the end of the world.
The double standard makes me sick-

Yep. Movies. In which hanging was typically a part of justice. As opposed to lynchings. Where hanging was the fundamental expression of injustice.
"Blacks have a complex that everything with a noose is meant for them."
For a good long time, everything with a noose WAS meant for them. Even this year there was a dragging death in the south with the black man being dragged behind the truck in a noose. You're either being intentionally ignorant, which is typical of the GOP, or are simply uneducated. -

I can always count on you to excuse racism, automan.

If you were a rational person and not a racist I could attempt to reason with you and try to explain that most of the lynchings of blacks are racially motivated, whereas for the most part the only time racially motivated lynchings of whites have occured in the past was when white abolitionists and those who supported equal rights have been lynched by KKK.
However, bigotry is not based on rational thought, so there is nothing that I can possibly say to get you to acknowledge the simple fact that lynchings were one of the main tools to enforce white supremacy. Then again, you might have no problems with white supremacy considering your comments just on the board alone. -

Cracker and whitey are certainly racist terms.
However they don't have the weight of 200+ years of slavery, abuse, murder, rape and torture behind them, as the n-word does.-

Cracker is only a racist term becuse it has been hijacked. Where and the history of why, I don't know. I've always wondered, haven't found been able to find it yet. Anyone know? I do know, originally a cracker was a Florida cowoy. It referred to the crack of the whip. cattle were in Florida 17 years before the southwest, and the first cattle men were called cow hunters.
