Cent' anni, Jimmy Carter!

[Peter C. Russell]

I read recently that the problem with racism in this country comes down to a common thread.
When white people hear the word racism they automatically get defencive.
When black people hear the word racism they automatically accuse.

In short this basic perception is true.

[Michael Larson]

Peter,

I sure there is some truth to that.

I think many get tired of being called racist when it is untrue.

There is big offender of this on these boards.

He pulls out race card when he runs out of arguments that make sense.

[William J. Decker]

I look at it this way:

1) My Great-Grandmother was a "freed Mulato Woman" (says so, right there on the wedding license), so, by the old segregation laws, I am Black.

2) I have never owned slaves, nor have I "opressed" andy black person. I did, however, evict a former tenant who hadn't paid rent for 3 months. According to Jesse Jackson (Sr.), that makes me a racists (and he told me so, himself), but everyone knows that he is so full of fecal material that, if given an enema, he would overload the Chicago Water Sanitary District for the next 3 years. No one cares about that clown anymore.

3) None of my family ever owned slaves.

4) Therefore, I have nothing to feel gulty about.

5) So, when they accuse you of being Racist, just laugh. That is all that alligation means to me. They are stupid and have no clue.

Hope this helps;

When I was in high school and college I was a racist--I ran the 100 yard dash...

I am not a descendant of a slave, I am an actual former slave. I was enslaved for nearly 4 years when I was a boy.

[klott]

Where and by who Nick?

[Joseph A. Ferry]

I'm a slave to fashion.

[Patrick Carter]

and all of us, our heirs and our heirs heirs are slaves to the lenders of our countries debt ....................

[Nick Gromicko]

On top of that, I almost froze do death once, almost starved to death once, was lost at sea, stabbed twice, and shot right through the leg. I'm like Rasputin. Then every now and then some little lawyer threatens to destroy me with a lawsuit only to become bewildered when my response to him amounts to not much more than a giggle.

[klott]

still a slave.

[Joseph A. Ferry]

How to tell if you're a racist.

[Michael R. Boyett]

Well, I got hung up in an endless loop in the bottom right hand corner but it looks like I may be able to get out of it....regardless, I'm likely to end up a racist though
