Yale has a Black Student Alliance. No shit, they really do. http://www.yale.edu/bsay/introduction.html ... see? Even got a yale.edu page.

If I start a White Student Alliance, how long will I have to wait before Jesse Jackson goes on CNN and calls me a racist?

Is it just me, or have we missed the equality in equal rights?

I've never owned a slave, you never were a slave, what's the fucking problem?

It's not just Yale, not hardly.

That really pisses me off. I really would love to start a White Collegians Club. How is it racist if white people start one, but not if black people do?

Chreteau · Post by **Chreteau** » October 10, 2004, 12:21 pm

You're just saying that 'cause I'm black.

Not to sound racist, but I agree. Kinda like getting scholarships, there's a load I can get for being in a minority group.

I can get them for being black, hispanic, asian, native american, etc. - and I can get them for being a woman going into a male dominated field, but I CAN'T get them as a white male, even if I'm going into a female dominated field.

I'm not saying that I SHOULD be chosen just because I'm a white guy, but for example, let's take the NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People) commercials. They beg for money and state "For every person we can send to college, there's one we can't"

Well, that is sad, until you consider that for every PERSON we send to college, there's hundreds we can't and have to figure out their own way to pay.

If it wasn't for Uncle Sam, I'd still be trapped in a cubicle instead of being trapped in a closet-sized office. Ah, progress.

There's something to look forward too.

The difference is: The yale page WORKS!

What is ABC? None of the links work to learn anything about it.

As a chinese proverb goes,the lookers-on have got a clearer view than the insiders.I don't mean to offend anybody here,but I think it's not so aggresive,I mean ,as you guys might think it should be, for the black people to establish a so-called alliance.
Let it be and nothing matters.

Chreteau · Post by **Chreteau** » October 11, 2004, 7:46 am

The point is, when blacks establish an alliance it's called an alliance. When whites establish an alliance it's called racism.

I strongly believe that flinging around accusations of racism is a racist act in itself.

I'm in favor of your view.

I mean, when it comes to the black and white relations

Chreteau · Post by **Chreteau** » October 11, 2004, 7:56 am

Now that I've answered your question regarding American politics, what's this news about China rejecting Chen's call for peace talks? Do you agree or disagree with the rejection?

SAM_from_CHINA · Post by **SAM_from_CHINA** » October 11, 2004, 8:07 am

What our government can accept is only the talk relating to the "peaceful unification".We deeply think that Taiwan is one part of China,so the rejection is reasonable.
But as far as i am concerned,nothing matters ,really,if they wanna get back,they will;if not ,what the use of reclamation?
WAR can't be the answer.

I should get a scholarship or something just for being a ninja. Anyone know of any ninja or ninja related student organizations?

Martial Arts Club

Purpose
The purpose of the Martial Arts Club is to congregate people interested in the Youn Wha Ryu martial arts system, and, together, to learn and practice the principles and techniques of that system in order to increase self-confidence, self-defense, and both physical and mental health.

Couldn't you just...take a class at a Martial Arts School though? It'd probably give you better training anyways.

It's not about the training. It's about ninja organizations.

What the hell is "Youn Wha Ryu"? It sounds gay. Not that there's anything wrong with that . . .

I take Kenpo at American Streetedge Martial Arts here in town. It's fun, but not "ninja fun". I mean, I've been there a few months now and haven't even stabbed anybody.

LOL!

I go shooting twice a week, more if I can get away. Any time you want to go, I'll be happy to show you real self defense in action.

(p.s. there's a huge difference between combat shooting and that pussy "look at me, I can hit a piece of paper" crap.)

Celtic Samurai · Post by **Celtic Samurai** » October 13, 2004, 11:25 am

In the Navy I won the "Expert" pin with the Berretta 9mm, and "Sharpshooter" with the M14. I know all about shooting.

I realize they're necessary, but I fucking hate guns.

And here I thought you were just some Anime fan who never got over watching Teenage Mutant Ninja Ugly Ass Gay Colored Stupid Kids Dressed Like Turtles.

Hey now. Teenage Mutant Ninja turtles are awesome. They teach great values and its just fun to have those great childhood memories.

Chreteau,

Funny thing i actuailly agree with you on somthing,
Why cant we have White american television, united cacausion scholorship fund, or a fundamentally white fraternity. It is because our counrty has over compinsated for our mistakes. Heck were still paying the native americans off, do you see the Britains paying off the scotish people for ass raping them for years and why isnt saudi arabia paying off the spanish for the time that the muslims took over spain. And why arnt the egytians putting jewish faimlies through college because thier ancestors where slaves along time ago?
Affermitive action is racist and our government supports, i dont care what race you are every one has a chance in this country and it is not right that the us government can tell a buisness or a school that they must have a certain ammount of diversity. Every thing should be equal not tipped either way, you want into school you should have to earn it you want a good job work hard. Where you go to school and what you end up doing should be based on your merits. Scholar ships should not be given out due to race, they should be given out on needyness and merit.
