Truckers with guts are America’s last hope!

One more thing. It was the Jews that crucified Christ and to this day, if I'm not mistaken, they don't acknowledge Christ as the messiah. The Muslims had done nothing to Christ and yet you have issues with the Muslims, but not with the Jews? Does this really make sense?

As for your Western Culture....Your Western Culture is being taken away, little by little everyday. Example, no more prayers in school, no more using the word "Christmas" to celebrate Christmas. Why? Let me tell you why, cause we are offending all the ones who come here to become a part of our Western Culture as you put it. Your all twisted up Patriot, it seems you really don't have a clue as to what you are saying. I'll say it again, one should gather all the facts they can before trying to make an informed decision on something.

 

Western Culture is kind of an oxymoron as far as I see it. We have become a melting pot of all types of beliefs, and personally, I think that more blood has been shed in the name of religion than for any other reasons. This "Western Culture" includes atheists and agnostics, some of them very well behaved people with good values. It's called freedom.

Regardless, just as a casual observer, this thread has strayed way off topic with racist and religious banter. I'll do my best to get it back on track should it continue.

 

Ignore the Racial Injustices of the past??????? I'll have you know, you Raciest, that I have ancestors who died so your ancestors could be free! and this is the kind of thanks you give!. You should be thanking us for freeing you. not complaining about it 150 some odd years later!

 

First of all, I don't have to thank you for nothing. Secondly you don't even know what the freedom is all about. There was no freedom until after the Civil rights movement, and you don't even know what that was about, and I can bet dollars to donuts that you don't know what that's about cause most who don't have a college education don't know how it came to be. Third, you nor your ancestors free'd me, and to get one thing clear it was your ancestors who started the whole thing in America any way so I could give a F about your ancestors. Also if you had any education what so ever you would know that blacks fought in the Civil War as well, so you nor your ancestors did nothing that blacks wasn't willing to do, and your assuming I'm black cause of what I'm saying but you know what assumptions make right? What the hell I need to thank you for? You done lost your mind or what little you had.

 

Like I stated..... "you Racist!" I rest my case.

 

Racist?? Listen,if you want to be bitter over things long ago..,and NOT so long ago,that is all your choice...But,do not include me...oh,I could care less if you or anyone dislikes me,(I am white) and..-PROUD of it.Where there injustices in the past?Sure..Different world way,way back,and a different world since I was a little kid.. Two quick points..Way way way back,it was Africans who captured Africans to the slave traders..($$ ruled then too,I guess)and slavery,although I do not understand it,waspracticed throughout the world,not just the U.S. 2nd point....Because I have white skin,DO NOT think I owe you a thing,cause I DONT......There hasbeen ENOUGH pain for everyone concerned.,LET IT GO......You will feel better..

 

Cruz 36............Take it easy. Stop playing the racism card. If you're here because your ancestors were slaves,so what. At least your here. There are millions of people living in Africa that would happily trade places with you.

I am tired of listening to people cry about how they're unique and America is crushing their individuality. Your individuality is crushing America.

 

Presently there are more slaves then in all the previous centuries combined.
Slavery is worse now then ever in the past.
Where is this taking place.
Mainly Africa and Asia.
Not in western countries.
Even during the capture of the slaves that ended up in America and other western countries , black and Arab traders were predominant in this "enterprise".
So if color of skin is a criteria of anyone when placing blame for slavery whites don't even get in to the top 2.I'm not saying whites are blameless but if that is how you want to dice it up get the facts straight.

BTW I am an African who lives and works in Africa.

 

This thread is an interesting read, but talk about getting off topic.

OTR truckers need to organize, there is no industry in the world where good people make more sacrifices for unacceptable compensation.

 

And hostile. Ironic that in a forum section where a little unity is needed to organize, folks are stuck in the same mindset and still debating 2000 year old stories.

Slavery is still alive and well in America. Just look at this industry.
