That is just simply false. There is not equal opportunity for all races from start to finish. It does not exist in America today. Anyone (Fox News?) who is telling you otherwise is bullshitting you. I bet if I asked all of my African American friends if they thought there was equal opportunity from birth to death for all races in America they would laugh at me.
But it don't take much to get me by
So just booze me up and get me high

I'm surprised people are so sheltered not to realize this and laugh themselves!

There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence.

Well Nebraskaboy doesnt seem to hold any prejudices, racism has been killed off mostly. Look at the percentage of racist americans on this site there are only two racists, whitepower and knight69 unless some of you are in disguise. Are you guys implying that racism is as bad as it was in 1800s or 60s??

I'm not saying racism hasn't improved. To say "it has been killed off mostly" is a fucking joke though.

I never said anything about racism. I feel like a broken record here but once again what I'm talking about is equal opportunity for everybody from birth to death. It does not exist in America. Hopefully someday it will. All of this is contrary to what the right believes and preaches about on Fox News.
But it don't take much to get me by
So just booze me up and get me high
