Oh yeah, the old "Boo Hoo, White People Have It So Hard" litany. It kind of stumbles right out of the starting gate:
You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction. You Call me "White boy," "Cracker," "Honkey," "Whitey," "Caveman" ... and that's OK.
But when I call you, Nigger, Kike, Towel head, Sand-nigger, camel Jockey, Beaner, Gook, or Chink ... you call me a racist.
No, I don't call you anything because I attempt to treat people the way I want to be treated. Why would you want the "privilage" of words like nigger, chink or kike? Oh wait, it's because you're a bitter, whiny asshole. That'll do it.
