Post Tramautic Slave Syndrome... What's next?Follow

I hope the implication of that statement isn't that Rasicsm effected Colin Powel and George Bush equally.

Black kids are at a disadvantage in America compared to white kids. Contrary to the wailing of the poor white guy who doesn't get to be a firefighter because a black guy was eligible.

As the board's sole and lonely black man, I am here to say that racism is dead in America.

There! It is officially over.

In fact, not only as the board's only black man, I am also the board's solitary African American-Dutchman, thus entitling me to proclaim an end to affirmative action. So, Smash, it's time to turn those swords into plowshares, hold hands with your Republican brothers and sing "When We Gather at the River."

I'm free, free, free at last!

How about "go tell em on the mountain"

So you do not believe that Colin Powell can become President? I am one that would vote for him. So I believe a black child does have a chance, the opportunity for a black child to do is just opening up now or in the next decade. After Hillary or Elizabeth in 2008.



This is an understandable statement, and an appropriate response for someone that does not believe. It is faith, the factual evidence helps build that faith.

It is the ease at which you pull out the "Race Card" though that really distracts from your arguements. The immediate aggression that you push on someones ignorance is what makes me at least tune out what you are really saying. How can someone tell if have virtually no problem if the first words out of your keyboard is that the ignorant person is a "racist". So actually it is difficult to read you carefully, when you let your arrogance over shadow the opposing sides ignorance.

I don't know why I'm replying in this manner, but truly you can make a better arguement by being less confrontational and understand that the opposing view truly is founded on ignorance, based on their inability or unwillingness to learn for themselves.

Ok I'm off the soap box. Keep up the good fight on ignorance, cause I understand that fight all too well.

Unfortunately that risk of assasination is very real, because I believe Powell would do a good job, if he was President during 9/11 we would not be in Iraq today and Afghanistan would be nearing completion of being rebuilt, though I believe Osama would still be at large. But hey, I'm just a dumb grunt, what do I know.

Ugh, Africa scares the crap out of me. I read an article a while back about how Africa should be a top concern for terrorism because so many have AIDS that there are thousands of people there that have nothing to lose by suicide bombing.

Tell ya what. I never even thought about race hell i even dated a Black Women in college, for about a year. Until i started working a phone company. I have never in all my life tried to do some of these stupid things or even thought about it for that matter. To give u an idea of experience so u understand the pool i am getting this data from. I have been here for 5 years i take on avg 60 calls a day. So 60*5(days a week)= 300 * 4(weeks a month) = 1200 * 12(months a year) = 14,400 * 5(years of service) = 72,000 calls. Now lets minus off 12,000 calls for vacation, holidays, what have ya. 72,000-12,000= 60,000. This is just one example of black people's judgement of right.

They call up for new service we do a credit check to verify ID, Final Bills, Date of Birth things like that everyone gets one. So instead of giving me there info which has a Final Bill on it they give there babies info who is not 18 just so they can run those bills up and give that poor child bad credit before it even knows what credit is. When u tell them they have to send ID's in to verify the information because none of the Credit Beaur's have any records for them they get all pissy. When u ask them if they have court documents showing they are an Amancipated Minor they say "huh". I tell them they can put it in there name and they will say no i have a bill and hang up. Why would u wanna start off your child with bad credit. That has nothing to do with ppl who were long dead b4 u were ever born. So u can't blame that.

Also this is mostly black women why o why do you always get more than u can afford. I think black women have a compentiton to see who can get the highest bill's.

Anyway just my 2 cents

Well, yeah, what the hell. Why not, they're all pink on the inside, right?

That worked out well for you. Nothing gives one moral authority to speak about race like saying "So, I fuc[b][/b]ked a darkie once..."

You would know.

Ow!

Two diffrent words. I might have used it incorrectly, though, it's hard to tell without the quote.


http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=affect


Usage Note: Affect and effect have no senses in common. As a verb affect is most commonly used in the sense of “to influence” (how smoking affects health). Effect means “to bring about or execute”: layoffs designed to effect savings. Thus the sentence These measures may affect savings could imply that the measures may reduce savings that have already been realized, whereas These measures may effect savings implies that the measures will cause new savings to come about.

who cares? in another couple hundred years or so we'll all be close to the same color anyway because of bi-racial marriages. i myself am looking forward to the day(hopefully i'll see it) when my great-grandchildren don't have to worry about getting sun-burns and u can also see them in an un-lit room. seriously we will all be mulatto eventually
