White Man Wins Reverse Racism Lawsuit

A federal jury has awarded a white man $150,000 in a reverse racial discrimination lawsuit. He said he was dismissed from his state job helping troubled youths because he could not tolerate being called names like "cracker," "polack" and "stupid white boy.".

I read the story, why couldn't this be just a "discrimination and harrassment" case instead of being called "reverse racism" which is the dumbest phrase that could have ever been invented?

I believe that phrase is just a political ploy.

Yeah, white people have it so hard in Amerikkka. Everywhere they turn, people are making racist remarks, denying them opportunity and oppressing them.

With the threat of this kind of litigation growing, minorities will find it harder to seek and obtain opportunites via affirmative action, diversity initiatives and EOE mandates.
