So he has to post a link to prove his point, but you don't have to?
We live in a world where the US President's nationality was questioned for years on the basis of his being HALF black. When was the last time anyone questioned a white President's nationality? How's that for equality?

Agree with this.
Not to be overly political or racial, but honestly, the last thing this country or world needs is white people, and I am assuming most of the posters here are white (or at the very least that HKusp is white; please correct me if I am wrong), telling everyone else how racist other people are.
OhThePossibilities' point, I believe, was that considering all the shit and grief that white people have caused for others, it is odd and seems ignorant for whites to complain about the "double standards" they perceive. It does, to some, make it sound like these people are just upset that they don't get to be racist but others can be.

You've heard of affirmative action, right? I shouldn't have to link to something that should be common knowledge right now.

That's exactly what I was getting at. Thank you.

Probably the most racist thing I've ever read here at RSR.

You need to work on sentence structure.
