Anti-Racism ad is racist?

A controversy over an anti-racism campaign some local critics say is itself racist is roiling the Iron Range city of Duluth, Minn.

The Un-Fair Campaign addresses what it calls ‘white privilege’ with billboards, posters and online videos assigning guilt to people with taglines like, “Is white skin really fair skin?” and “I am a white man. That’s unfair.” The ads are plastered across a city where 90 percent of the population is Caucasian.

In my opinion it is a hypocritical attempt to make the people who made the ad feel good and others who have not produced a ad feel guilty, it points out the fact that racism is still a social dictate after all these millennium's of existence,,,, apparently guilt is the sole solution for racism.
It ain't workin',,,, we'll need a lot more ads.
As proof of my racist moderation I have had a National Geographic subscription for over 30 years,,, it has every kind of human varmint you can imagine on it's pages,,,, and I bring it right into the house.

It should read "only white people are racists because white people are all the same"

If I saw that sign, I would wish for projectile defecation powers.

A quart jar of pickled eggs and a 6 pack of Corona will bestow the powers you seek.

Accuracy for this particular load leaves a bit to be desired but velocity is unsurpassed. Muzzle blast is horrendous though.

There's no talking to guys with that accent. Farrakook has that same way of speaking. I had a guy in an Akron watering hole telling me about the evil White man. He talked just like the guy in the video. I had a dark tan from roofing for two summers and he thought i was naturally brown. When i told him i was White he looked like this

and then said i see ya'll have a new tactic to fool us.

To be honest, we have a tradition in this country of exploiting various ethnic groups for cheap labor that has and will continue to backfire on the general population that didn't want anything to do with it and never benefited from it in the first place.

Fair is fair, should we start the "Too Bad You're Black" campaign?

It's not hard to see racism when you're white. All you have to do is listen to Jackson, Sharpton or the idiots from the black panthers and la raza, you'll hear plenty of racism .... all directed at whites.

Another point to consider, if blacks hadn't been brought to America, they wouldn't have been exposed to Christianity, they would have died as pagan voodoo-worshiping unbelievers and would have spent eternity in hell. We saved their souls!

(can't wait to hear the backlash on this one.)

Black's should be thanking White people everyday for saving Blacks from themselves! Too bad they are doing their best to turn America into the shithole they left.

Your right about all the racism directed at Whites, MLK would be ashamed of what his people have become, and the Mexicans are no better.
