I am of European descent, and I do not feel I am of the chosen race. I judge each individual on their own individual merits. That being said, a certain element of your race (rather small percentage-wise, but you know who I am talking about) has successfully (through its actions and culture) angered the majority of American society to the extent that the majority has lost respect for the black race as a whole. Although I cannot agree with the concept of demonizing an entire people over the actions of the 10 percent, the actions of those 10 percent are nonetheless the catalyst for much of the anger toward the race.
