Correcting grammar is racist.

I thought I was arguing that point. You think it's silly to be belittled and made to feel like you're less valuable because of your skin color if you're white? I know some kids who will disagree with you.

My point was just that on an individual basis racism is never silly and it hurts just as bad when your skin is white.

I'd disagree with that. I don't know the children of whom you speak but I remember that any difference as a child will be exploited by other children. Children a cruel, fickle, selfish beings by nature. I'd hardly call them racists. 

Being approached aggressively on the street by a group of young folks because I'm white is the least of my problems in the US. When it has happened I, as a white person, have the privilege of knowing that if something happened to me it would be looked into. 

I can walk confidently down just about any street know that because of my whiteness I have a level of protection, the same protection all people should have but don't. So if somebody gives me a funny look or calls me a name I'm still cloaked in that "old roman" protection of being a "white citizen". So being racist to me is silly, since we both know (unless your also white) the consequences are different between us. If somebody acted on that racism there would be the full weight of consequences against them, because I am white. 

Therefore the only thing I really have to fear is ignorance, my own and those of others. That's what makes racism against white folks in the US so silly, if you were to act on it you'd be in for allot of trouble and you probably know that. If you don't then your ignorant, and that's just plain funny to think that somebody would grow up in US as a minority and know have that instilled in them.

If it hurts you as a white person, things said, I can't understand why. What's so hurtfully by disliking your whiteness? At least the ignorant view of you as a member of a group and not as an individual is historically accurate. But does it detract from your privilege as a white person? No. Does it detract from your own understanding of your self and your place in the US society and culture? No. It's nothing more then a "your moma" joke that you took to seriously at that point.

So I stand by my statement. In the US racism against white people is silly.

What do you mean by "What's so hurtfully by disliking your whiteness?"  And "At least the ignorant view of you as a member of a group and not as an individual is historically accurate."

I didn't know white people were safe walking all streets in America because of a white cloak of protection, I thought there were areas with high black or mexican popilations that are considered dangerous for white people to walk through.

That's how it is in the UK at least.  If you're white and you walk into an area where you're in the minority you don't get extra respect or protection for being white, it's more like a target sometimes.

In America maybe the police give you extra protection for being white, over here they're more likely to want to do less work and just tell you to get out of the bad area you're in, rather than give you extra protection.

So if a white couple are kidnapped, racially taunted, the girl gets raped the guy gets murdered that's silly, because the aggressors will face consiquences?
