    I sound like all kinds of ridiculous things to folks. I guess that you have your right to your ridiculous impression as well. But of all the ridiculous things that people think of me, that's one of the least offensive, so thank you, I guess.

    "What you are saying is that white people should be left alone and if bad things happen to another group of people, you just don't want to hear about it."

    Where the 'f' did I say that? And where do you get off putting your words in my mouth?

    Here me clearly, if you have to stop chewing your bubblicious, then do it. I said,

    "If we are to learn from our history, it should be that race is not an acceptable item of focus. Focus on what is good for PEOPLE, not just some people, on the basis of race, all people. Get rid of the boxes, get rid of the definitions, get rid of the racism, all of it."

    You either support discrimination, or you don't. I don't.
    Oh I know that people think that I am wrong, but consider this.
    DID YOUR MOMMA EVER TELL YOU THAT TWO WRONGS DON'T MAKE A RIGHT? WELL?

    Now, go to hell in a handbasket.

    That was what I was thinking 1_1.

    Yes Onederfulone, I too wish we all could just love each other and we would all just get along. Unlike you, I don't think that wishing for it will make it so. I have no idea what your mommy taught you and won't even try to guess. Still, I assume you are, at least chronologically, an adult. Spewing our simple minded nonsense such as "two wrongs don't make a right" while commenting on a complex situation such as race,leads me to believe I hit a nerve. Surely you can do better than that.

    Hi Roadkill, I read in one of your earlier posts today that you disliked watching Animal Planet at the gym. I guess you now understand my dislike for Henry.

    WOW, I didn't know I would have such an impact on the economy when I got up this morning. iPlod, are you sure it isn't Easter basket sales that have helped your business? Just checking.

    Nope. I dont. I'd presume you see it as "cartoonish" but I'd also presume that you can't paint a mural. I haven't...just saying.

    Bleeding cats and torn up dogs suck to watch while working out. I don't care if you don't like his art.

    I think he is as appealing as watching "Bleeding cats and torn up dogs", so, yes, despite yourself, you really do understand.

    Yeah, simple minded. I love how that's a BAD thing anymore.
    Yes I'm chronologically old, I don't let that condition clutter my mind up with useless liberal drivel.
    A fact is a fact, irrespective of how 'simple minded' it may appear.

    "I too wish we all could just love each other and we would all just get along."
    And so you lie, meanwhile, butt heads like you insist otherwise. Categorize, analyze, shove sorry ass into box...NEXT!

    Pathetic.

    Hey Onederfulone, Forrest Gump was not a documentary. "Simple minded" is not an attribute. I know you can do better.
