I wasn't crying about racism in Detroit. I said that was where I had seen it the worst. And that was like 25 years ago. And it's the truth. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

| Well, I can tell where this thread is heading. Sayonara! I will continue to follow the thread, as it is a viable topic; but I won't answer because I am not going to debase myself or other members of this forum in the manner that recently happened in a similair thread.

I am THE PROFESSIONAL, but on my own time I can express my opinions in any form that I wish to do so. NO YOU STOP shifting that weigh off of yourself, due to the fact that you are the one who created this thread's topic, and you your surprise you have never came across a person as open as I am with what I say. Hahahaha Report it? Why should I report anything, and you are the Superstar Guy? I recall when I first hit this thread (Affirmative Action) How many of you was whining about being treated as the minority, and what upset because you felt that YOU was being discriminated againsted. That's how I got involved with this racism bs, and when most of you started blaming Blacks that was when I jumped in. So in closing, My professional attitude do not excuse the fact that I am entitled to express myself freely when it comes to race matters. I am going to make a final statement regarding this thread's title, No I don't think that race should matter, but it does to some of you who can't stand the heat, and Tadpole if this topic is becoming a racial topic....change it. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

| you are being very disingenuous - nobody felt they are being discriminated against - you are misrepresenting the posts on this threat. This started as a perfectly valid discussion about whether race would affect (either positively or negatively) the race of Obama. You - YOU - have turned it into a personal racial war with a few posters. Nobody has said ANYTHING derogatory about black Americans - yet you keep goading people by writing that they have. It's dishonest - and it adds nothing to the topic at hand - in fact, it detracts from and stops discussion of a very important issue in the upcoming elections. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Conservatism: Self-centered mean-spiritedness fueled by ignorance and misguided self-importance.

people can read between the lines, and I hope you are not thinking that I can't comprehense what's being said. You are so narrow minded have you ever thought that perhaps these posts is misrepresenting themselves? Listen Damn it get real, cause the way you are talking everything you people post is okay, and if I don't agree with what's being said I am wrong. You are being dis honest, and you better be thankful that I have not called you a lier. What is the important issue of the up-coming election? You want a republician to take office again? Oh I forgot you are a Republician, and what's happening is Obama is being used. You know like I know NO Black man will ever be President (Not in this life). You all is dis-crediting Hillary, but she is the one who will win. So don't give me that bull that race does not matter because it do. You are a damn joke Quote:
So tell me how can you all discriminate against each other? See I told you that you think everybody is a damn fool. In closing honestly....I try to stay away from racism discussions, but its posts like tristandrobin that keeps shit going, and I will always speak up if I feel discriminated against just like you do. The topic is a catcher anyways (Does Race Matter)?. I can say yes it does, and you can say no it don't. However it would depends on the mindset. So if you felt that I am upsetting the thread. Then I suggest that you make sure that you don't. Worry about yourself and nobody else. Can you understand that? | |||||||||||||||||||||||

| you might have had something to say or to add to the discussion - but, frankly, I have no clue what you're writiing about. I'm not saying this to be nasty - but seriously, if you want to discuss issues with people, you really need to take a remedial English course. Your posts are incomprehensible. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Conservatism: Self-centered mean-spiritedness fueled by ignorance and misguided self-importance.

I'll probably not have the occassion -- or money -- to travel overseas anytime soon. But as things are now, if I did go, I would seriously consider dusting off my German and just pretending to be eine Deutchlander... LOL If at first you don’t succeed – try, try again and then quit.

| I'd vote for Oboma over anybody else right now. But honestly, I don't think he has an icecube's chance in Hell. Not only is he black, he has a "funny-sounding" name.
