I just want to say that your comment, "I am not accusing all WHITE PEOPLE of being senseless about the real problems plauging our much maligned racial climate. I am simply accusing 99.9% of all WHITE PEOPLE of being senseless," is extremely ignorant and uncalled for. I was feelin' your first post until you added that load of crap to it. If that's how you feel then guess what? You promote racism just as much as the 99.9% of "senseless" white people do. News flash: Racism isn't JUST against minorities. Racism is one race against another, whatever two races they may be. For anyone to think that ANYONE'S life is a big ass bowl of cherries just based on skin color is completely ridiculous. I've been through just as much shit as the next person and I've struggled a hell of a lot in my life, too. Im tired of everyone thinking that its so damn great to be white. Rich and white and not having to worry about a thing, maybe...but it's not like I get shit handed to me cuz people see me and are like, "Here, oh white one, have this" LOL! I work for what I get, and everyone else should too.
