I don't mean as individuals, but in general? I can see a case being made of it, and here is why I can see people feeling that way.
1. The African-American community is a monolithic voting block that has never diversely integrated politically.
2. It seems every instance of what is perceived as injustice if an African-American is involved is instantly declared due to racism and again African-Americans are a monolithic block of opinion.
3. The spokespersons (self assigned) for the African-American "voice" are incessant race-baiters and rather blantantly racist themselves.
4. Those spokespersons only care of injustice towards African-Americans, but demand everyone care about injustice to African-Americans.
5. White liberals and African-American spokespersons (self assigned) incessantly hold pity-parties - and expect to get things in return for it.
6. Those same African-American spokespersons make it clear they despise white people.
7. Their spokespersons constantly threatening riots, predicting violence and protests if they don't get their way - but again only about African-Americans.
So it is unreasonable for people to have negative feelings towards African-Americans in general?
With constant raging about the evil white people, it seems predictable there would be raging about the evil black people in return. Most people don't like being called names and insulted all the time - despite being told political correctness demands they remain silent and even accept their own evil-ness.
Personally, I don't have a dog in this fight. I'm not black, white or brown, other than maybe a tad of African-American back there - don't know. I've lived with/in a variety of ethnic and racial communities. However, of my negative feelings towards racial groups as a whole (not individually), actually it is towards the 2 that are (1 of which is a distant possibility) my own ancestry. Meaning I don't have to feel guilt nor am defending myself in raising this topic.
Thoughts? Let's get it out in the open.
