Tom, I am not trying to clown or flame you. I have an honest question.

Why is it that every time these topics are discusses, you take such HUGE exception to things posted by blacks? Maybe I haven't read enough of your posts, but I have yet to see you get so worked up at anyone who was not discussing these issues from an African-American community centered point of view.

I really don't think it's us. Most of us aren't radical at all, but just want it to be acknowleged that racism didn't just go away one day in the 60's and stop affecting black people!

Youa re an older person, and that probably informs a lot of your views. Maybe it's generational. But I honestly feel that it's starting to look like you are targeting anyone who disagrees with white people on this board, or are willing to argue their stance.

Once again, I am not trying to judge or be disrespectful (I was raised not to be like that with my elders, even on the net, lol) but I really think you should consider what I'm saying.

That just shows your where with all of the true picture!

The reason I could not just stand by is , Da Why?

If you want to be a what ever you call your self, feel free, and many people will just sit back and Go What!

You and many others of your group do get tedious and longer winded! Self importance is getting just a little bit under whealming!

Say what you will, but a lot of people are getting very tired of it! Look to see how many other people are joinging in this thread!

Why not drop it instead of Prolonging it! ?
