I've always liked the idea of starting up the United Caucasion College Fund and seeing how many people balk at the idea.

Yep, I'm one of those people. Its funny that in situations like affirmative action, you automatically assume that all "white" applicants are better qualified for the job than all of the other non-"white" applicants. Yea, lets get rid of affirmative action since discrimination didn't occur before affirmative action nor will it happen after abolishing it.Originally posted by: Hoober
So are you one of those people that believes the minority should get the job because the company will then fill their quota for minorities on payroll? I believe organizations like these are discriminatory.
LOL, you are sadly mistaken. I wouldn't have any problem with a club that say was a Chess Club who had all white members. Also, these so called "Asian" and "Hispanic" clubs allow any person from any walk of life to join. When a club is labeled a "White" club, it has historical significance behind it. For example, if someone started a Hitler club that had nothing to do with Adolf Hitler, there would still be resistance against it.What's amazing is how people are more than happy to go along with them out of guilt, but balk at the idea of a "white" club. Tell me, honestly, what's the difference between a Black Student Union and a White Student Union? One has minorities so therefore they should be allowed to band together?
Ok, but a "Hitler" club has many problems with it. We're not talking about a "white" club. This is a "Caucasian" club. Who cares if the KKK is made up of white anglos? It has nothing to do with the Caucasian club being formed.
As far as affirmitive action, I absolutely despise the idea that minority would be hired over a caucasian if their qualifications are exactly the same. That's discrimination.
Couldn't tell you since there is no "white" club. Blacks can meet blacks on a day to day basis, as can asians, indians, etc.Originally posted by: Mani
Tell me, if there were a white club, can you count on people being there that will share your upbringing, interests, and culture that you wouldn't be able to meet in your day to day life?

That's the exact point I'm trying to make. This girl, like so many other white people who promote the creation of a white club, is doing to either annoy the minorities or is doing out of feelings of exclusion. The first reason is just stupid. The second reason is almost just as stupid. They're already in the majority, while many others feel excluded. And now they want to make the minorities feel exluded even more. What a great first step towards equality! On the other hand, like I said, minority groups are there so those people can interact with one another and raise awareness. Their agenda isn't to "get back" at the majority, unlike people with feldenak's mindset.

The reason white clubs do not ans should not exist is because we are NOT the minority. Black, Asian etc. clubs exist because they are an ethnic minority in what is primarily a white country. White's have not EVER suffered racism on the scale of the Asians or Blacks, so to whine about not being able to have a White club is ridiculous in the extreme. White people have a long history of being incredible racist, and while that is now starting to improve it is a difficult legacy to shake off. So, yes, a White club is an incredibly stupid and inconsiderate thing to suggest and promote, and is no doubt highly offensive to those minorities who it patronizes. :beer:

So in 5 years time, it'll be okay for there to be a white club, but not a hispanic club? Shut up and get your head out of your ass - it's either all or nothing. _NONE_ of the affected asians and blacks have experienced any more racism than the affected whites.
Oh, and what about the Jew club? Aren't they mostly white? And the Christian club?
Speaking as a white person, I've experienced PLENTY of discrimination in my life. "Shut up whitey, go back to your Klan meeting."
Hell, once I was called into the office of the school for parking my pickup next to some black guy's Mustang. He 'thought' that I was threatening racial violence, and they took away my parking pass (And then I went and got a faculty parking pass through other channels)
This whole white=racist form of racism has to stop.
