Believe it or not, all people face racism, not just blacks so that comment alone makes you racist. The idea of blacks not wanting to visit parks for the stated reason in absurd. So what is the basis? Are we to change the ground so some will be more comfortable or is this another attempt to shame America into paying off the poor, poor blacks that just cannot bring themselves to vist a park. Oh the pain, oh the racism in the look, feel and color of the ground. Give me and America a flippin break. Racism comes from every direction toward every race. Sorry, but blacks do not corner the market when it come to being discriminated against.

Black Americans who want a better life instead of a handout need to:
- Stop talking jive and speak plain English.
- Stop giving their children pseudo-African names, as having those ridiculous names on theri resumes and job applications only make it harder for them to get good jobs later in life.
- Stop calling themselves “African-Americans.” Only people who emigrate from another country are legitimate hyphenated Americans, if they so choose to refer to themselves that way. All others are Americans of (Polish, Italian, Asian, etc.) descent.
- With the exception of the Native Americans and the Colonists, no group has been here longer than black people. Consequently, there is no reason to maintain the black patois that marks so many of them as unintelligent. Give up the “bro” and “you know what I’m sayin’” stuff and speak English.
- Blacks are approximately 13% of the U.S. population, and are already vastly over-represented in television commercials, TV shows constantly promote miscegenation, and now we have morons complaining that so few of them visit the National Parks. Ridiculous!
- Many people thought that electing a (half) black President would end racial strife, but apparently enough is never enough for our population of professional victims. Affiirmative action has taken America’s blacks to the White House, and even though he is a totally incompetent Muslim sympathizer, they will vote for him again — just because he’s black. If that isn’t racism, I don’t know what is!

The point is — if you’re going to cry racism through all the years of your existence — you had damn well better know what it is, because black people can be racist too, and if you need an example, see Michelle Obama and her 50-person entourage vacationing around the world with the taxpayer’s funds, spewing her message of anti-white hatred. Proud of her? You shouldn’t be.

Why do you like “music” that calls women names? Snoop Dogg is not appropriate for nat’l parks because he’s profane, okay? Geesh!

Know it’s too late and you’ll never see this, but had to write. You think Snoop Dogg in Nat’l Parks is a great idea? You want your daughters to be called bitches and ho’s right out in public? Instead of worrying about Debbie’s blog, you should be fighting against the stupid gangsta culture that’s destroying your race. A teacher.

blacks don’t visit national parks because they would rather stay in the hood, tippin’ the 40, shooting their gat, listening to filthy rap music, talking on cell phones and following ridiculous fashions for their hair, clothing and nails. the reason why blacks don’t succeed in America is that do not set their aspirations very high and expect others to take care ofthem.

I am tired of the race card, all this politically correct whinning and blacks never taking responsibility for their actions.

I taught for 6 years in inner city schools in Virginia and always encouraged my students, most of them black, to visit some of the parks and historical sites in our area. they never did. they were more interested in video games, going to Busch Garden and watching TV.

Perhaps if some of you looked at actual statistics you would see that it actually is a problem, and there have been polls taken like have been mentioned. So much ignorance in the world, and too many white people are living in their little stepford bubble where racism doesn’t happen. So many things I could respond to, but here are a few:
Black people do use sun lotion, so nice try with your racist joke
Really what is the two earrings comment supposed to mean anyway, and I think snoop dogg in the park is a fine idea.
Picking cotton may have been fun for you, but a little pay and the choice of whether or not to do it probably helped that

It’s obvious that some people on this blog need to attend college, or at least learn how to make decent arguments. The issue of racism would not be quite as funny if you had actually experienced it as I have.
And I think before you laugh and make comments about a guy who has been working in the Park system for 30 years, and is highly educated, you might want to do your research. Want to know more? http://www.pbs.org/engage/blog/ask-park-ranger-shelton-johnson#comment-18773

The example that comes to my mind is how a new company, say 2 years old, practices affirmative action. So, just what past discriminatory hiring practicies at this company are they trying to correct as we’re told is the purpose for AA?

Now I have another. With the election of Obama, how come nothing with regards to AA etc. has not been changed the least little bit? Isn’t this the victory signal, that AA worked so great?

I really wanted to take up vegetable gardening as a hobby, but since my neighbor is black, I’ll have to drop it. I don’t want to be insensitive. Maybe I’ll wait until he moves.
