Kill Whitey?

I recently found the book 'Stupid White Men' by Michael Moore in a book store and found a chapter called 'Kill Whitey' in it. I bought the book to show people how stupid it is. Here's 4 pages from the chapter:

You should've known that as soon as you saw who the author was.

Didn't read the book and never intend to.I'm just playing devil's advocate here, seems to me that chapter's just a plea against racism.

Well, to correct a few of Michael Moore's assertions:

Quote:
Who gave us the black plague? A white guy?
Technically, it traveled eastwards from China through Mongol holdings, and was then introduced into Europe by Venetian traders coming back from the Black Sea.

Quote:
Recently a headline on the front page of the Science section of the New York Times asked the question "Who Built the H-Bomb?" Frankly, I could have cared less---because I already know the only pertinent answer: "IT WAS A WHITE GUY!"
Edward Teller, who is Jewish, considered to be an "ethnic group".

Quote:
No black guy ever built or used a bomb designed to wipe out hordes of innocent people, whether in Oklahoma City, Columbine, or Hiroshima.
Well, for the Kenya and Tanzania embassy bombings, there are these guys:


Ahmed Ghailani


Fazul Abdullah Mohammed


Sheikh Ahmed Salim Swedan

Mass-murdering gunmen:

John Allen Muhammad


John Lee Malvo

Genocidal maniac and cannibal:


Idi Amin

And 800,000 dead Rwandans:


Quote:
Who has started every war America has been in? White men.
Nope, Japan attacked us first.

Quote:
Slavery? Whitey!
Slavery's been around for all history, and the black slave trade was begun by Arabs (where it continues to this day in nations such as Mauretania, Sudan, and even Saudi Arabia!) When the Europeans entered the slave trade, they were sold blacks from the interior by coastal blacks.

Every race has its share of villains.

I've read it. Most of it is badly written, and their are sections in which he goes against his own logic. One thing that is clear from reading the book is that Moore isn't really a democrat, he hammers the democrats quite a bit. The only reason he's currently supporting the democrats is to fight the republicans.

True. I actually think he just says whatever is controversial to make a buck. He is just full of it in general.

Those don't support his assumptions, so he isn't interested. Thanks for the info though.

so moore has never worked under a black man, dated a black woman, never rented from a black man, went to a prepy white school that didnt hire black teachers, never went to a rap concert, or any other concert that draws a large young black crowd, didnt go to dealerships that hired black salesmen, never bought a car off a black man, never applied for a loan where the manager was black, ect. ect. ect.

sounds like he was really just avoiding black people to me.
