I don't get why racism towards whites isn't taken as seriously as racist remarks towards others. Racism is terrible all around the spectrum.

Originally posted by MANIAC310 View PostYes, using social networking sites to slander people anonymously because they were born a certain color/ethnicity or any other trivial difference is disgusting. Specially when mainstream media says it isn't right to defend yourself. They want you to just take the hatred they spew at you. It's a cowardice move that I find repulsive. Too many people have suffered at the hands of this vile ignorance for it to just be swept under the rug and pretend like it never happened.
I commend Tyson Fury it takes courage to say you're not taking it anymore.

Apparently Irish Travelers were given distinct ethnic classification on the grounds that their genes show a seperation from the mass Irish population around a thousand years ago. It also said that lots of families would have become Travelers much later (many during the great famine), but generally they are considered a distinct group within Ireland and other countries like the UK.
