It wasn't the question. I wasn't asking one. I was having a conversation, or so I thought. I was obviously incorrect. My family in this discussion is irrelevant as they have no racist tendencies and, as I said, we are not all of one ethnic origin anyway. (As I have repeatedly stated). I wasn't asking for help in dealing with some deep, confusing question. I've been very clear about what I think is right and wrong and only considered the people I know in the context of discussing bigots, of which I know several, and once again, they are not my family and friends as I do not have close relationships with people who are racist since I feel so strongly about the issue.
Personally I would much rather have no one respond to me at all than to not read the post and respond to something I wasn't even talking about. It is frustrating to repeat myself over and over.
