I've lost track as to what I'm supposed to call them. every time they have a chance to show maturity and wanting to be part of the whole they have to piss into they system. The American Indian has a bitch...the black man may very well have benefited from being shipped over here instead of left over there. I'd rather be the decedent of a slave than living in Africa today. And I'd never compromise my decedents opportunities for a good life by bitching at every turn to keep the world from knowing my great great grandfather got here the hard way. In 54 years of life....and having hired hundreds of people in corporate America I've never had a black person apply for a job. But I've also never known a business associate to think for one moment that they would not hire a black person. I'm sick to death of this bull shit. My grandfather came to Ellis Island from Palermo at age 19...broke...no English.....illiterate by all standards. He married at age 30 and worked double shift in the coal mines of PA for 40 years....raise 7 kids and owned 3 homes before he died at age 90. He gave food to those that needed....lent money to those that needed.....and could bitch a blue streak when needed.... everybody has a story of familial hard times.....but they don't let it pass through the generations. Pity parties are for wussies. TH
