You make me feel ill I don't care who you are related to- whoever they are, they obviously didn't raise you right. I wouldn't mock African Americans because they are heavily against the war, and I wouldn't mock them if they were heavily for the war- not because I have good friends that are black, or relatives who are black, but because mocking a whole race or ethnicity is wrong. Someone here once got his jocky shorts in a twist over nasty nasty jokes about the Irish- but I'd bet he supports mocking the French. Just goes to show that when it comes to bigotry, some people are just waiting for the opportunity to become bigots- if the right cause presents itself. I'm sure even you would draw the line about racist humor- or I hope you would. But what you are doing is just as bad. Ad hominems against an entire population because you don't like how they approach an issue makes you, and your ilk, look like spoiled children with the manners of guttersnipes.
