chezlaw, i just want to thank you for being honest. i seriously mean that, deeply. every other person interacting with me in this thread has been deceptive at best and an outright liar at worst. you, on the other hand, have the courage to write statements which you believe are true but could be viewed as unsavory.

i'm glad that you realize to justify reverse racism you must start with the presupposition that racism isn't inherently bad.
for me, and anyone i would consider moral, "racism is bad" is an axiom, and to me, it's very self evident.
i couldn't imagine justifying mistreating somebody simply because other members of their racial group who lived 100-200 years ago did some bad stuff.
that's a deeply immoral idea and moral relativism is also dangerous, especially for you. with so many jihadists running around your country, the rampant moral relativism might do you in.
