    “Leave it to [insert race]” is not exactly taking the high road here.

      I’m pretty sure that as a white person I’m aloud to call out a type of behavior that has become all to common in white people.

        You’re allowed to do a lot of things. What I’m really getting at is what kind of person it makes you.

          I’m the kind of person who is sick of being lumped in with people who look like me. White people are not my people just because we have similar pigmentation but I’m certainly not going around claiming to be some other ethnicity because i think it’s a state of mind. I might have a chip on my shoulder. I was raised by a very active civil rights activist and this shit makes me sick.

            First,

            Leave it to a white person to think they just get to use words however they want regardless of their actual definitions. SMH

            But then,

            I’m the kind of person who is sick of being lumped in with people who look like me.

            You’re very confused.
