Well...those are crass generalizations but the fact of the matter is that generalizations and stereotypes exist for a reason. For instance, while mexicans are labeled by whites as lazy there are many that will work 12 hour days or more for money you wouldn't touch with a 10 ft pole. And anyone who's watched Cops knows that the better half of people on those shows are not white...but a good number of white people get arrested for the same stupid shit. There are a lot of lazy ass white folks around but the percentages of whites vs. blacks in corporate jobs or on welfare are very askewed. And I don't wanna hear it's because there's a stigma around hiring people of color into corporate America. While things aren't perfect it's waaaaaaay better than it's ever been and is getting better. This is true for women as well.

Cashizslick: I was kind of hoping this thread could be a place to vent your frustrations and tell a few offensive jokes so please knock off the PC bullshit. I'm sure if you were black you might be offended but you're not so let it go. Nobody here is serious about those jokes and everyone here has told at least one of them somewhere along the way so I don't appreciate that kind of sanctimony.
