Subject: RE: BS: Responses To Racism
Blondes have never been enslaved by brunettes? I guess that is probably true but what the hell has it got to do with the point of this thread? Does it mean that it is OK to tell blonde jokes and the blondes in question have to sit back and take it? Does it mean that the only people who can have a say are those who have had a rough deal?

Just be careful there! I have noticed the tendancy to belittle the easy targets. Us white, middle-class, males seem to be getting the rough end of the stick. Keep that up and I will get out of the BMW and sit next to you on a bus one of these days;-)

Seriously though, is it OK to make fun of anyone because of physical characteristics, demographic placement or religious viewpoints? I think that at some point in time every race on the planet has been enslaved by another. We have all been enslaved by someone else in our past. Or will be in the future:-(
