    Now you're acting like I made that up. Like I'm the creator of the forum loophole... You have yourself convinced this bullshit is true now...

    True. I was however, raised by a mother born in 55' who lived for 9 years under Jim Crow. She went through "forced bussing" to Jackson when it was a high school. MLK was killed just 8 years before I was born. The 13th Amendment is still in its current form.

    There aren't 2 sides to telling me to tell "your boys in the hood" to stop carrying guns.

    There's only one side there... Plus, I live in Milwaukie and JUST yesterday I'm in the 7-11 on Park and the guy comes in with a Ruger on his hip open carrying.

    I was nervous Adonal FOYLE!!

    He was not black and I SURELY wouldn't tell him my philosophy on open carry. It certainly wasn't the time.

    Man this is like a mass rumble of badd asses throwing haymakers

    And then you have sly jumping in and out trying to keep the peace but getting tossed to aNd fro in the Fray.

    Its like sly is standing there like superman trying to stop the hurricane thats slowly crossing his path.

    The loophole is idiotic. Some people use it, some abuse it.

    Had a hard time with the quotes. You'll see it if you care to look. You do it all the time. Not always and you don't state it as a core belief. You just fall back on it when you don't agree with something.

    I'm still excited about Walmart and Dicks. I don't mind getting shot, I just don't want it to be some fucking 19 year old.

    We’ve made a lot of progress. I got like 5+ people to admit that dviss says racist stuff about white people, but no one cares because he’s black.

    His hate is justified, because of something along the lines of “being an angry black male”

    Whereas, white people on this board are held to a higher moral standard.

    Approach any black person with that type of vernacular and they would react negatively. One might beat his ass, the other might tell him about himself very eloquently. One might give him a look and just ignore him. I'm just pretty damn sure the response would be negative and I know better than you do.

    This would indicate we don't all think alike.

    Speaking things doesn't make them true...

    Right now tho, you're using all the dog whistle calls... Sly's ears must ache... Is it really that hard to stop?

    Just when this thread was nice and calm and talking about restaurants, dams, and allergies, it gets all spun up again.

    And no, I'm not interested in any finger-pointing placing blame. Not helpful, not productive.

    Is anything useful being accomplished in this thread at this point?

    It's sad that in this country speaking out against your ancestors atrocities can be seen as shtick...

    I have to think that we are reasonable people and capable of discussing issues related to race without resorting to the constant bickering and backbiting. Is it all about trying to show ourselves as better than the people on the other side of the discussion? That's almost exclusively what I'm seeing in this thread...on both sides.

    Please, I beg of you all, give some grace, believe yourself to be better than the other person without the need to prove it, and be willing to let a perceived slight go without a response.

    atrocities ancestors and chicken get sort of muddled up here, that sort shtick, Hey!
    Remember when I asked you a real question?
    A question about when the KFC or maybe the Chicken became the problem?
    Was that why I stepped in the shit in 1961?
    Perhaps because I had not done my studies of dark skin people? Going that far back you know, hard to pick and acceptable generic label for the group.
