Well this didn't sit right with me, so I made a comment would she love her any less if she did look 100% Hispanic. Well since then I got 3 hate emails calling me a "N". Even the moderator implied maybe I should unsubscribe. Have anyone else ran into this crazy mess online. I was totally shocked. I could easily unsub, but I'll let moderator unsub me. That would be like saying "Blacks" don't exist.

i haven't encountered any racists on-line...some ignorant people...but not any racists...but i agree you should validate your opinion...and not unsubscribe just because they have issues with engaging in intelligent conversation about touchy subjects...
