So Simple, Even a Liberal Can Do It

Gnome Enthusiast's 10 easy steps to ending racism in America.

1. Make it illegal for any government agency for any reason to ask your race. That includes scholarships, census forms, job applications, everything.

2. Understand that though the government shouldn't be allowed to ask the question, private businesses should be able to do whatever the hell they want. This means that if a business owner wants to hire only white people at his restaurant then that is his prerogative. It should not be illegal. You don't like it? Let people know. The free market will take care of it.



3. Understand that profiling is not racist, it is smart. If I see a black kid sagging his pants, spewing profanities, and hanging out with a group of his G's I assume he is up to no good. Not because he is black, but because he looks like a jackass. This rebellion against profiling can be seen at airports where grandma is being strip searched while a group of Arab men with box cutters are let through so they do not seem insensitive. It is not racist to pick out the most likely candidates for a particular issue; it is a disservice to others not to.

4. Realize that our freedoms are what makes this country great, and the freedom of speech is one of the most important. If people want to be racist and say offensive things, I say great! Good for them! They can utilize their rights in any way they see fit. The thing is, there are repercussions for that behavior and it is called ostracizing the idiots.

5. Get over the idea of "Hate crimes". Not many crimes don't involve hate. A murder is a murder whether it happens because you don't like Asians or because you want to take a guys Starter jacket. To give special punishment because of the color of the victim's skin IS racist.

6. Do not get offended. If somebody tells a racist joke it is ok to laugh. Hell, our differences are what make us special. If I make a joke about my friend and his brother both banging the same ugly girl it is funny. It would be less funny if everyone in the world had done it. It is the difference between us that is funny. Accept it.

7. Get over the past. All races have had problems in the past. All races have perpetrated those problems. Slavery for example. Whites in the US owned slaves up until 154 years ago. That is a known fact. It is also a known fact that most slaves were sold to the white people by the Africans themselves. Get over it. Do not blame historical injustice for your current situation. If you do, you will never succeed.

8. End political correctness. It is the PC person who complains about everything that creates racists and sexists and every other ist's. PC people make you hate them, and for good reason. They are idiots. So if you don't act like an idiot, people will like you. If people like you, they can't hate your race. Simple.

9. Don't listen to people who make their money from cries of racism. Al Sharpton does not have black people's best interest in mind. He has his own interests in mind. You don't need him or anybody like him to think for you. Tell them to shut their collective pie holes and learn to think for yourself.

10. Treat people as individuals. If 95% of Mexican people are idiots that doesn't mean you should hate all Mexicans, it just means that you will most likely hate 95 out of every 100 you meet. Those 5 are probably cool as hell, so why would you ruin it by judging them before you meet them. Do not confuse this with the profiling thing though. You can judge people with how they act, talk, and dress...hell, you should. You just shouldn't judge them solely by the color of their skin.

That is all.
