By singling out white people you/they are making a statement that one ethnicity is different than others.

This is a racist statement. It also supports the racist arguments that there are basic differences between ethnicities.

I did not read the rest of the post simply because the headline is fatally flawed. Anyone who wrote that, or agrees with it, has no idea how to confront this issue.
