That is because

1. Blacks were enslaved for a much longer period overall
2. Blacks were enslaved for the mere fact of BEING black. Many laws made the mere fact of being black an AUTOMATIC slave.

I gave you a lot of links and info which explained how and why so don't pretend you don't know them.
3. Irish ppl were enslaved under British rule in Ireland not as much in the US


And Muslim slave traders enslaved Whites along the Mediterranean just for not being Muslims - and the total slave count is LARGER than the number taken to the US.


Part of the reason is that blacks were enlsaved for being black because it was easier to KEEP TRACK of them because of their noticeable color.

So white slavers brought it on themselves by TARGETTING blacks,


They were better in the fields.


Then why bring it up?
I didn't say I felt guilty...


Who?
Negroes.

So? Many many more wars started simply because of difference of ethnicity, land disputes and religious conflict.
But each one that had a racial purpose would NOT have happened.


And having a 100% white nation will not necessarily eliminate race as a factor in a war if that particular nation choose to go to war. If they go to war with another country of 100% another race, it is quite possible that race could become a factor or make things worse between the 2 countries.

The only way to completely eliminate race as a possible issue in any war is either to

- have the WHOLE WORLD be a single race or
- make sure racism is completely eliminated from any person's heart.

Is that what you really want?


If they are separated from other races the hatred towards the other race couldn't exist.


Ethnicity is more specific than race.

There are many many more wars betweens different ethnicities than between different races.

Study more history.

Race has too many meanings. Most of the time you are not even clear which definition you are using.


Ethnicity is chosen.
There is no possible way to know someones ethnicity without asking them (And that's in the case that they don't lie).


Planned or not it still occured. Or are you denying that?
Genocide
-systematic killing of a racial or cultural group

To be systematic there must have been a plan or method of this - there wasn't.


Prove it.
You gave this definition of ethnicity:
Code:
sharing a common and distinctive culture, religion, language, or the like

It gives "Religion" as an example.


So?
How do you call that a genocide?


You see something about a minimum number to fit the definition?
We have to be realistic.
A few people killed in a small town isn't enough to be considered genocide.
A genocide must be a PLANNED killing of a certain group - and it's usually understood that there's a high death count.


It is still a massacre.
We're not talking about massacres.


Are you the one who decides?
Nope.
But it's usually understood that a large number of people died.
Don't confuse a massacre with a genocide.


We are just talking o wars and genocides. Do you need the UN stamp of defnition? Does a massacre WITHIN a race make any less a bad thing?  
It doesn't make it good, no, but they are LESS COMMON and result in LESS DEATHS.


No argument from me! Do you have problem with that?
Well you just defied all scientific study on their racial makeup.
Don't worry - it's ok :D

But once they converted to Islam they were freed. And what was the race of those slave traders?

Besides I thought we were speaking of the US. trying to switch topics again?


and the total slave count is LARGER than the number taken to the US.
Proof? Was it in the US?


They were better in the fields.
Oh good. So you have a good excuse right there is that it?


I didn't say I felt guilty...
So why bring up guilt?

So "Call for reparations" means they ACTUALLY got it?


But each one that had a racial purpose would NOT have happened.
How many of these had a PURELY RACIAL pupose as opposed to combined with ETHNIC issue?


If they are separated from other races the hatred towards the other race couldn't exist.
No country is completely isolated. What would prevent them from hating their neighboring country which is multiracial or of another race?

The Hutus and the Tutsis were technically of the same exact race. But they were taught to view each other as different.  They had segreagated each other because their Belgians colonizers saw one group as slightly less dark than the other and therefore as "superior".

The segregation made the 2 groups hate each other even more until they just blew up and massacred each other.

Segregation doesn't prevent hate and violence and war. It INCREASES them.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rwandan_Genocide

Here is a testimony of a Rwanda genocide survivor


Before 1959, Hutus and Tutsis got on well together. There was no problem at all. The Hutus were not mean, it was other people who taught them bad things. They taught them first to burn houses and then, thinking that was not enough, they taught them to kill. I think things will get better, now that segregation no longer exists. In the past, we had our race written on our identity cards; first it said which clan a person belonged to, then later they changed it to race. Today, it has been removed; if things continue this way, they will get better. We fight segregation today. People are one. Children are taught as one, taught the same things by the same teacher. If people are united at such an early stage, they will not become separated again. Division is created by bad leadership. The Rwandan government together with the church and other church related organization have embarked themselves in teaching Rwandan to forgive and fight against segregation. This gives me hope. I do have hope in the future. The most important thing everyone asks for is peace - even if you have only a little to eat, to be able to eat it in peace. Even though I am old, I ask for peace and I have it now. I am sad, but I have peace. I am in a peaceful count

Blacks got the lowest iq and they commit the most crimes. They hardly do anything constructive for society. They are basicly parasites if we are honest here.

you're really ignorant.
and there is a difference between blacks and africans fyi

Over the period of history white skinned people have been enslaved longer overall than blacks.

Not all blacks (or African Americans) are hated.

Only the ones that think they can live off of government welfare, don't have to work--they just have babies, sell drugs and steal things for money--and basically, just the ones that don't even try at life.

Example:
-Will Smith: Good. He made a future for himself.
-Tara (a girl I know): Good. She's put herself through college, going to law school.

-De'la'quishia (someone I don't know, don't wanna know): Bad! This is someone who lives in the projects, and has only worked one job in their lifetime--which was 10 years ago at McDonalds!

All blacks arent gangbangers...there are some whites that do that also.

All blacks dont whine and bitch....whites do that too.

I dont think we are the most hated...I think all minorities are hated in some degree. Whites unfortunatly have the upper hand in society. Some blacks feel that sometimes when something is said...that it is racist. I dont always feel that way. Sometimes I think they are rather ridiculous. But thats the way it is. O well.

Statistically speaking, African American people have the most of their own below poverty level.
And statistics show that any race below poverty levels will more likely be into violence, and will be less educated, and will not move up in class as easily. They are somewhat stuck where they are.

And since african americans hold the majority in the first category, the pretty much are guaranteed the majority in the second as well.


No Pun Intended Whatsoever.

It is the same as saying that the Japanese and Chinese have some of the smartest and most intelligent people in the world. Not because of race, but because they send their children to school for 14+ hrs a day.
