there's a big difference between having preconceived notions and biases and being RACIST would i get out of my car and walk down the street in E. ST. LOUIS? hell no... is it because i'm RACIST? or do i know for a fact that the murder rate there isn't exactly something to trifle with oh but let me see....because that location is 99% black, i'm a racist....to hear race pimps talk about it, it's because the area is populated with people of 'color'... RIGHT. oh i will agree with you that the race card has been played so many times that it has finally begun to lose its sting.. in the past all you needed to do was 'question' if a person was racist...just throw that scurrilous accusation out there...it would stick i am so beyond sick of this i watched this bitch, sherrod milk the taxpayer for unwarranted riches far beyond what any 'average WHITE person' would ever earn in a lifetime... what the hell did she do or did not receive that warranted getting MILLIONS of our taxes???? i say FUCK her...and the black horse she rode in on i watched the entire racist video and her comments about her so called 'revelation' that it was all about 'poverty' not race... lying POS and fuck that white farmer who went begging to her for a place at the gov't teat too....

I don't get upset if someone calls me a "racist" (especially in the current political climate, when it gets tossed around as casually as saying someone's a "yankees fan"), but I do try to figure out what motivated them to say that. If it's because of something I said or did, was their anything overtly wrong, or a misperception on their part? Were they simply chain-pulling? Sounds complicated, takes very little time and effort. its really not that hard try LIVING it my dad had black employees...many of them...i would play with their kids when i was a child i have a black grandson (by marriage) i don't give a flying fuck about the color of my father's employees or my grandson's (or SIL)... when i go to watch him play rugby (yes, blacks actually do play rugby) or his graduation, the LAST thing i'm thinking about is his race... i think about his character, who he is...what he's done.... you know... the martin luther king ideal... and oh, how far we have fallen
