Day without white people

[NanoBeer]

in response to a day without mexicans, i have felt that it is my duty to show what white people do for america everyday without compliants.
I ask that you sign this petition: http://www.petitiononline.com/ADWOWP99

you can leave a comment here if you like to voice your opinion about the issue

[LazyDrunk]

White people who skip their job because they're white should be fired, too.

If you want to miss work so fucking bad, just call in sick. Otherwise, use another method to convey your skin color.

[sdhonda]

White is a skin colour.

Illegal immigrants are a socio-political group.

I think he's just seeing todays protests as more of a hispanic thing since they will make up the large majority.

[No-one-inparticular]

I am white, and I collect Disability.

I suckle from the shriviled tit of the U.S. Government.

See how silly sweeping generalizations are.

[mofomojo]

Mexicans are not a race you dipshit. Shoot yourself in a your own self dug hole, I'll pour kerosene and make sure your ignorant and racist ass burns and dies.

That was kinda harsh, but I think that the point was that people classify white people as one entity like they classify blacks and hispanics as one entity. It's disgusting and I want to see it stopped.

[EdwinsGeneration]

why.....?? why would you have a day without white people??

Their doing it ..must be cool HEY LETS DO IT TOO GUYS!!

is that all you ever do copy others? I bet your style is inspired by another country whether it be france, england, etc.

Who are most of them. In this case, the generalization is warranted. And anyone who says otherwise is some PC toolbag.

Yeah, acting like a total toolbag and being an even bigger ignorant ass in respose to someones percieved racism (even though I saw none) is the way to go.

Thums up.

[MoralLibertarian]

I'm not going to sign this petition because it is stupid to quit working for any social or political cause, period.

[sdhonda]

Its not like all the hispanic people were out there, or it was meant specificly for hispanics. The protest was by immigrants, both illegal and legal, over the issue of illegal immigration in the US. They just happen to be hispanic.

Your suggesting all white people stop working. Why white people? Just because all of them happen to be hispanic.

Although it's reasonable to boycott, ditto, ML.

Does this mean a shortage of beef stroganoff?

I kid... I kid...

Anyways--
Today's ralley's weren't about Mexicans. It was about immigrants.
More specifically: new legislation against immigrations.

Anyways...
I'm as white as most white people... (right now, I'm sport a rather nice Mediterranean tan... from walking all day.)

But whatever.

[darkfiretime1]

I have one thing to say. STFU about the race card and move on.

I think you mean illegal immigrants. You know the people who ignored the laws.

In short, he proclaimed that are white people are not illegal aliens and all Mexicans, Hispanics and other ethnicities are and don't belong here. Sounds awfully racist to me.

The issue was about illegal aliens, and he brought race into it. Implying racist thoughts; therefore he is a racist.

[peedee]

This is by far the dumbest idea yet.

[TheThing]

im number 6 on the list. i think that its true, not only do mexicans work at bad jobs others wont take. watch dirty jobs on the Discovery Channel. most of the people they go along with are white, not mexican.

[mofomojo]

The fact that you guys continue to see and imply that all white people as non-immigrants, all Mexican people as immigrants is incredibly racist and makes me terribly ashamed of the current state of intelligence for Western society.

[HighlyIllogical]

Western society wasn't very intelligent to begin with.

I'm pretty sure they are a race...

race
n.
A local geographic or global human population distinguished as a more or less distinct group by genetically transmitted physical characteristics.
A group of people united or classified together on the basis of common history, nationality, or geographic distribution: the German race.

Mex·i·can
n.
A native or inhabitant of Mexico.

Which is why so many non-westerners come to the west for education. Yeah, we must be pretty dumb.

Whipping out the definitions of two words does not prove anything. Look at your definitions once again, and then make the case for "Mexican" being an entirely distinguishable race. It's news to me.

.
As far as the day without white people... Do I need to get a job first before I can participate, or what?

Technically--
No...

Mexicans are Mestizos (mixed)... having both Spanish and Native American blood-- and there is a very small mullato population.

I'm Mexican, but I have a lot of French, Spanish and Black Arabian (Moore) blood in me. I'm pretty light skinned too (you can see Fenrus' sig pic to see my pic)...

"Mexican" is a general term to describe the people from whom they decend the most powerful tribe in Mexico, the Mexica.

[sdhonda]

Its not a race. Why?

1.The country of mexico is the remnants of the mexican empire. Its made up of many groups and tribes over a wide geographic area. One of those tribes could be considered a race, but not all of the people in the country.

2.Like said, the spanish interbreed with the natives.

3.Mexico, like all other countries, allows for citizenship.

Scotland was made up of dozens of Clans but were still considered Scottish

Except no one wants it.

i've never heard of anyone refer to Scots as a race, nor are they for that matter.

[VigilanteNighthawk]

What about all the legal non white citizens and residents? Can they join in too? Why are only whites mentioned?
This whole idea makes no sense anyway. Shutting down the country by having the majority of people (I'm including all legal residents) not show up for work wouldn't prove much. The point of their protest was to attempt to show what they contribute to society. What exactly was the topic starter trying to prove?

No they are not. Citisens are socio-political group, you can't walk into someone else's job and say "I'm not working here anymore because it's unfair that I don't get payed". Simple as that.
