Islam can dish it out, but can't take it

I think he's trying to make it a contest of who suffered the most. That's an easy one, non-whites have suffered more.

This doesn't mean SOME whites haven't also suffered.

I just don't understand that group think mentality, but he is military, it's definitely part of the training.
Contest. ??? Why and how could you view discrimination as a contest ? That alone shows just how fucked in the head you can be.

I don't if it was the same on your side of the pond but there was an entire industry dedicated to dumb Pollack jokes at one time. Even then I wouldn't assume it was the same for every Pol.
The dumb pollack joke equivalent in the UK is the dumb Irish joke

I'm still waiting on my answer.
I gave two examples already. I can list hundreds more but I don't think you'll accept anything other than...

Well, one time my maid bitched when I missed the toiled, sometimes my chauffeur forgets to open my door, and my gardener gets mad when I tell him to turn down his music. There, is that what you needed?

I've treated 10s of thousands of people in my career, are you willing to bet I haven't experienced a little racism? If only 2% of the pts were racist toward whites that's still going to be in the 100's.

I'm able to realize that the other 98% treat me like a person so I overlook the small percentage of people who don't. I figure there may be something personal that happened to them. That's why I keep asking what happened to you that you keep avoiding.

You dance well, but have yet to give an example of the discrimination YOU have experience being white in America.

Irish slaves were cheaper than African slaves

During the 1650s, over 100,000 Irish children between the ages of 10 and 14 were taken from their parents and sold as slaves in the West Indies, Virginia and New England. In this decade, 52,000 Irish (mostly women and children) were sold to Barbados and Virginia. Another 30,000 Irish men and women were also transported and sold to the highest bidder. In 1656, [Oliver] Cromwell ordered that 2000 Irish children be taken to Jamaica and sold as slaves to English settlers.”

Martin goes on to explain that for some reason, the Irish slaves are often remembered as ‘indentured servants.’ However, in most cases during the 17th and 18th centuries, they were no more than “human cattle.”

“...the African slave trade was just beginning during this same period,” writes Martin. “It is well recorded that African slaves, not tainted with the stain of the hated Catholic theology and more expensive to purchase, were often treated far better than their Irish counterparts.”

During the late 1600s, writes Martin, African slaves were far more expensive than their Irish counterparts - Africans would sell for around 50 sterling while Irish were often no more than 5 sterling.

he's been acting very strangely the last few days..not wanting to answer any of my questions..then he wants me to answer his.

i know he was drinking yesterday.
I think the only person that has a drinking problem is you. I answer your question but you dance around mine. You have yet to answer if you think about playing with your vagina all day and if so how can you get anything done.

Can't get past the usage of the word contest. soooo dumb???
better than dishonest.

Let's review though, first you acted as if it can't happen, then you begrudgingly seemed to accept that it can, but wanted us to compare it to what others have gone through. Sounds like you made it a contest.

I'll accept dumb.

I just want you to share your experience on how you are discriminated against in America. Trying to see the level of discrimination you encountered. I don't know if I don't know
