There is nothing wrong with a melting pot, but there is something drastically wrong with blacks (the only ethnic group besides possibly Hispanics to do this) continually crying about being victims/minorities, etc. when they have more opportunities than anyone in this country. It’s a fact, and you know it. Also, why is it OK for blacks to have BET (Black Entertainment Television) while normal networks have to include more blacks in their shows? What if we had ‘White Entertainment Television,’ just for whites? Hell, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson would be rallying around the station in a non-stop prayer vigil. All minorities have opportunity, and all minorities, just like whites, have problems. Why is it, though, that all we ever hear about is what blacks need from whites, or what whites are not doing enough of for blacks? Is that equality? Is that right?

I have spent many years trying to dig deeper into the reasons why blacks do some of the things they do, and it has bothered and baffled me to no end. Their lack of proper tipping etiquette and certain social behavior patterns have at times frustrated and other times confused me. What I have learned is that there is still a lot of hatred/animosity toward whites, for reasons unknown, as most blacks have more opportunities than whites in all facets of life. In situations like the one you describe, having encountered many myself, I have found that the African Americans just don’t like to be told what to do by whites, whether it’s related to being too loud, etc. I think the tipping is related, as one black friend said to me once, to ‘How many times do you think you whites tipped us slaves for our jobs?’ I can sympathize with that, but slavery no longer exists, and in any case, I did not enslave them, so why punish me? A lot of this is also related to lack of education. A poorly educated white kid with an attitude is just as likely to not tip/have rude comments for someone asking them to be quiet as a black person. I just feel that education seems to be less of a priority in the black community, and that’s a shame, for they have so many opportunities and obvious talents. I don’t see things changing anytime soon, especially when the ‘leaders’ and spokespeople of their race are people like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, who want nothing more than to perpetuate a continual state of victimhood.

Give me a break. Of course many blacks secretly endorse these types of acts. Just look at the O.J. trial. It was so obvious he was guilty that a blind dog could have convicted him, but did that stop hundreds of thousands to maybe even millions of blacks in the United States rallying around O.J. and acting like it was a victory for the black community? No. I think many blacks try to label so-called ‘racist’ remarks as racism when in actuality they are just simple known facts that no one wants to admit.
