Oprah ACTUALLY said that? :o :eek:

I'm surprised SHE would go there (on air).

She actually asked the girl if the guy was white, if he would have been arrested. The girl, of course, said yes. Oprah didn't make a statement because you know if she had...DRAMA. :o

This story is indeed a sad one. But I am quite impressed by the strength that Marcus Dixon has. I would be mad at the world if that happened to me or my child. They are truly inspirational in their faith and peace at this situation.

Please, child!! Oprah says whatever she wants to say on her own show and in her own interviews! She holds her tongue for NOTHING!! Just like last night, when she was talking to Marcus and his family, she said "now I know some of you are wondering why this black boy is sittin up here with this white family. I know you're probably thinking--what's goin on--cuz he sure is a black, black boy!!" Yeah--she said that. So, I'm not surprised at all.

It was funny to see her try so hard to squeeze some water from those eye ducts. She tried her darndest, I know. Ha! Too bad, so sad.

I missed it yesterday but they rebroadcasted yesterday's episode at 9 this morning and I got a chance to watch it. Great interview! I am glad the brotha is out and he is determined to kick azz and take names!

Puhleeze. Oprah ain't crazy. I KNOW she won't say ANYTHING on HER show. It's still the white man's world I DON'T CARE HOW MUCH MONEY SHE HAS. LOL :D
