Secondly, that's not playing the race card at all. Playing the race card would be blaming another group for something done to people of my own ethnicity. I didn't do that. Mentioning another race is not playing the race card.
And your example is 100% wrong. The Jews were not gassed/killed by other Jews. Jews and Nazis (Germans) are not the same ethnicity.

That was my point, just because people occupy the same continent it doesn't make them "fellows" The DNA of two Africans from the same tribe has more diversity than the DNA of two randomly selected people from anywhere in the world.When we look at Europe we don't think Brit, Scots Welsh , German, and Irish are all they same just because they look the same( not to mention the atrocities they visited on each other or "fellows") and we should not think any two black people on the continent of Africa are the same.
..but I digress
Too often I see posters calling "The Race Card " and attacking a posters position with out refuting the premise of the position.
