    I am not sure anywhere on this thread I stated any sort of pride. Basically I just spoke what my mind was thinking. I don't think anywhere I said I was proud of it. Nor ashamed of it. Balance my son.

    STFU. In Los Angeles in particular, the reason for economic desparity is due to the face that a large portion of the minority population is not legally in the country. People who blame whites for everyone else's problems are not helping, they're making excuses.

    So you're not a "full blown" racist... would you say you're more "half blown", or maybe "three-quarters blown"? Just curious.

    You wouldn't talk to me, or another stranger, like that if we were face to face, would you? Cowards act tough when they're in the comforts of an anonymous message board. I wonder how much bravado you'd display in front of my face. I'm betting the first words out of your mouth wouldn't be "shut the fuck up".

    Illegal immigration is likely another indirect facet to this issue. However, IMO, if you're placing blame on those that are here illegally you're missing the real problem and that's the broken social programs, such as welfare, this country faces. Welfare and a few other social services are important and necessary; however, in it's current state, more and more Americans (of all colors) take advantage of the system to the point where our economy relies on illegal immigrants.
