    Went to Indianapolis once to do some stuff with Eli Lilly. About to leave the Hotel to go to the office, ask the desk clerk how far it was. He said half mile, perhaps a block or two more.
    Want me to call you a Cab? I said no, I think I will walk.
    He said, Oh no sir!

    I got the message, and said call the cab.

    Racism deprived me of my morning walk.

    Dude you know huffpo doesn't report stories. They just link you to other people's stories. If you read the link you'd know there was a book written about it.

    I don't have a clue to how funny it is when White males complain about racism?

    I'm completely correct when it comes to who invented the words Nigger (ignorant and couldn't pronounce Negro), colored and African American. Negro however is Spanish so you got me there...

    When any unarmed man is shot by the police he's a victim. They should have found another way to apprehend him. There have been few instances where white people have been killed while unarmed. But that is very few and far between.

    Tamir Rice, Mike Brown, Aaron Campbell, James Perez, Kendra James, Eric Garner, Trayvonn Martin, Sandra Bland... All unarmed victims.

    There's usually always a little bit of truth in that. And you yourself know this. Since you went to school with Rahm Emanuel you know how much of an ass hole he is. He has friction with everybody.

    He worked for Obama from 2008 to 2010.

    He's a powerful member of the party you blindly support. He buried the video to help his own reelection campaign. You asked, tough if you don't like the answer.

    Edit: fixed typo in dates

    Hilarious. What I'm supposed to be a Republican? :biglaugh:

    They don't give a SHIT about me.

    I register Dem to vote in the primary and am completely against open primaries. In my lifetime there has never been a viable Republican to vote for. If Eisenhower were available I vote for him in a New York minute. Same with Truman. However these aren't your grandfather's Republicans anymore so I simply just can't fuck with that party. I support equal marriage, I am completely against the death penalty, and I support a woman's privacy with her doctor. There's a reason why I'm voting for Bernie Sanders and not Hilary Clinton even if she was the primary. If I blindly support at the party I'd be voting for that bitch right? Boom! There goes your argument.

    Malcolm X Party.

    Your choice isn't a binary one.

    You will vote for Hillary next November after she defeats Sanders handily.

    When an unarmed black man is murdered by police, he's a dangerous criminal.

    Truman was a democrat, btw. He was FDR's VP and became president when FDR died.

    Oh well! You can't be all bad then! Just a Sad Sack example of a man.

    Just listened to this lady speak, very positive person. She reminds me very much of a lady I promoted to development manager, and pleasure to work with too. The difference in what you leave behind compared to her, is remarkable.

    I don't know where to start. First, your rampant use of "we" in this and many of your other posts indicates a strong "us against them" mentality. Do you really think that will ever lead to any positive outcome and understanding? Second, that massacre in Kenya was perpetrated by al-shabab, a Somali group of which many are black. Hence, the lack of media coverage here in the USA. It's sad, but the Paris attacks garnered all the attention because 1) Paris isn't known for this type of thing and 2) The media wouldn't get explosive rankings for an attack where blacks killed blacks.


    No thanks. Could it be that you're actually the one with "privilege" for the personal insult being overlooked here by mods? And yes, you actually do have to prove shit.

    Again, no thanks. But let me say that I've considered the plight of being wrongly discriminated against as far back as I can remember. It's true that I can never directly experience being black and some of the injustices that might come with it. Believe me, I'm the farthest thing from racist as can be.

    Finally, I'll admit that I could've been a little more constructive in my approach to this thread. I swooped right in and sharply commented, which probably wasn't the best move. My bad. I don't like drama and I usually do what I can to steer clear of it. Maybe I shouldn't go OT at all anymore. Just know that I'm all for unity in S2, despite disagreements.
