Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: HC the thread wasn't about race at all?

But they can't tell me how to feel when I go in a store and a cashier will not look me in the eye, or place change directly in my hand because they're afraid that something may happen. No amount of diversity teaching can do anything about that.
I can only go on what I've seen; not only that thread, but others threads have appeared to be less than tolerable. I can also only speak to what it appears that others are feeling, which is my feeling as well - everything seems to point to race in a negative manner, which is a sensitive topic, and until Jesus returns, I don't think that's an issue that will ever be agreed upon (and I'm not presuming to speak on the behalf of others here, just for myself). My Soror talks about tolerance, but it turns toward race. Soror Moderator asks only BGLO members to post in the thread, and someone gets offended, then it turns to race. Green eggs and ham comes up and, you guessed it, race!
HC you and I can agree to sit back and say "Let's stop the madness".

<hijack> Wait so the change placed directly in the hand thing is bad?.... That always happens to me... except at places like resturants when you pay the bill...
I'm serious about the change thing - it always happens here and I've always do it to other people too... I didn't know that some people find that offensive...
