The message in this video is clear, clear racism still exists, and it has to be eleminated to any cost, and this video is 15/16 years old, and it's still in the touch people hearts on how some societies actually are still doing things like this...

Not entirely by the video, but mostly the same way of treating "coloured" people...

This is a very good song. Nowadays, though, I don't believe blacks are being arrested just because they're blacks. An overwhelming portion of the black community has become aggressive and violent. Not to be racist here, but I think that might have to do with the Civil Rights of 1964, which forced blacks and whites together in schools, buses, etc. The problem is, you can't force people to be tolerant. They may have not been segregated, but the racial feelings were still there. Common sense dictates that tensions built up as a result. Blacks were a lot less violent when there were segregated schools and buses and such. I'm not saying that the races should be separated. All I'm saying is that racial integration should happen naturally, rather than by the barrel of a government gun.

Uhm, you think that someone should be convicted for crime, just because someone hated him/her?...

Maybe i read it wrong...

Cause what i ment, is that people cannot be forced to hate either. as sometimes people use propaganda and various other as an "excuse" for hating, rather than even TRY being tolerant... bounce

I know what you mean. Whether you're forcing the races together, or forcing them apart, the use of violent aggression to achieve discriminatory ends (even under the banner of anti-discrimination) is a crime against humanity. Racism is evil, but people will only learn through education, persuasion, and demonstration. Forcing them to believe such an idea has perverse results, even triggering more hostility among the races.
