    thats my policy, which is why Driew is now on my shit list

    jk... sort of. I know I'm not alone in not wanting to give this A-hole my time let alone more money... would it be too much to include a heads up that it's a Canzano link?

    They shouldn't even do the national anthem anyways. Do you really need a little song before sports games to make you feel patriotic? This is pathetic.

    Wow shooter did you really jsut go there?

    many of us don't see the world as black and white and black people have "their" people and white people have their people.

    We are all Americans. I'm not black, but you know what, I consider Obama "my people" and every person on the supreme court "my people" . . . because they are all Americans.

    His people . . . do you really see americans as black or white and they are your people if they match your skin tone?

    If I'm not mistaken, SHOOTER is the one that said "THE BLACKS" in a post once. I think we got into it about that also.

    Of course I went there. Many black people have been extraordinarily successful in this country, especially black athletes, and it's an extra reason for Roy to be thankful for living in this country.

    So me saying "The blacks" is significant, but Roy not participating in the national anthem isn't?

    Re: Roy Absent during National Anthem

    And what does that have to do with Roy. Because Opra (I assume ) is black that must mean she and Roy are tight. :dunno:

    A fascinating characteristic of tunnels is that depending on where you stand, the acoustics can be phenomenal.

    I once ran up several flights of an enclosed concrete stairway in the old Columbia Studios in Hollywood when I heard a full live orchestra playing some awesomely complex music upstairs.

    As I climbed the stairs, instruments seemed to drop out one by one until I rounded the last corner at the top and found my roommate sitting there all alone playing his acoustic twelve string.

    Re: Roy Absent during National Anthem

    Well hopefully you thank US every day because the richest people in the US are white . . . imagine how lucky you are that "your" people dominate the business world, the forbes list, NBA ownership,ect.

    Please don't ever complain about things given how forunate your people are doing in this country.

    I hope Roy is thankful for a lot of things, but not because "his people" have been fortunate. In fact if we want to get into who is fortunate in this country white or black people . . . never mind I can't believe you can't recognize how wrong it is to talk about Black people as Roy's people.

    So the guy who bombed the OK city buidling, is he your people because you guys are both white?

    Safe to assume that in your mind, anyone white is not considered "his people."

    People who see the world in black and white will never change. He will always be a racist. I can't stand reading or hearing things that come out of people like him.

    Re: Roy Absent during National Anthem

    Roy should be thankful for living in this country because he's black or because he's black and successful?

    Seriously Shooter because Roy privately prays during the national anthem means he's not thankful for living in this country?!?
