Racist Family



Wow watching this video makes me realize how much racism still exist. How can it be that in the 21st century will have people who still have this much hatred. Things like this makes me wonder if America is ready for a african american President(Barack Obama).

I think Shatobia's point was really powerful today. Why isn't it considered a crime to teach these hateful, racist, violent thoughts to children?

I also agree with shatobia's point today. But i also want to add, isn't already a crime to post a threat on someone? I know if they was talking about president bush or someone with greater power as him they would have been charged for a threat crime. I wonder if this regarding towards a different race even white would they still get away with it or is it because it is regarding towards blacks it is not a problem?

i think this family was shocking to most but not to me. i've seen rscist people before n ive seen some extremeist so for me to say that im appalled would be a lie. as for it being a crime, you cant call this a crime until they break the law. although toby brought up a very good point, u cant tell someone how to live its unconstitutional...

from all of the responses you would think that we forgot that racism exists i guess its shocking to people because they haven't heard it so up front speaking from my point of view racism is still here ,strong, and is never going away

Watching this clip today made me realize how stupid people are. Expecially teaching your kids to hate others is just sick because u are narrowing the chid way of thinking about race. In a way setting them up for death in todays world, but they will realize the wrong doing as they get older because every chid rebels aganist there parents will at some point and see the wrong. Im not shocked because the American society has not really changed since the civil right movement nor the emancipation proclamation. In my race and politics class we did a class discussion and it was about Dr.MLK and how since his death in 1968 have anything really changed major prior to now and days?
