    Exactly in opinion. Much like most of yours. But thanks for not getting my point. Not salty at all. Just trying to get you to see both sides of the picture. You will grow up one day. And see the very thing you bitch about is the same thing that you do your self.

    And not following you, simply open up the first new thread in the OT for him. And there you are again leaving your same double standards. Can’t follow you if you comment angrily in every single thread. It’s OK though. I got your back.

    For @HCP. This would be like you bitching about someone doing a horrible job mowing the lawn.

    I don’t see where the double standards are. It’s easy to tell somebody younger than you to grow up or “one day you will grow up”. It’s a cop out. Maybe just maybe you’re the one over reacting. Things aren’t that serious. Yet here you are making it serious. I’m not angry. I have strong opinions and yeah it’s annoying sometimes when somebody refuses to look at the statistics of society just to follow their ideology and tell me “that’s just racist”. Once again, the term racist has been watered down. I find it ridiculous nobody wants to be real about this topic. Act like inner cities aren’t full of crime. I’m from Gresham. It’s turned into a real shit hole. I can tell you first hand the shady people are mostly minorities with white kids mixed in. So what’s going on in America for that to be the issue? Why are blacks killing each other so often yet nobody says a word? What I’m saying isn’t racist, they are questions I have, shit I have seen.

    This forum is so full of super liberals who just refuse to hold everybody accountable except white people. White people trip me the fuck out these days. They are the only race that actively shits on their own race for brownie points in the liberal world. It’s fuckin weird. So yeah when somebody comes out like pop and says this country is racist, it’s annoying. How? How is it racist? I mean it used to be racist. Then everybody wants to take what he said and say “oh look what pop said, he must be right”. This country more so has turned into reverse racism if you haven’t noticed. White dudes are shit on now. Hey let’s ignore that though and constantly victimize black people and tell them all their failures are due to white people. That’s how you get a dviss or these weird ass white people who wanna call other white people out.

    This is why I don’t come to the OT section anymore unless it’s about something light. Sly posted the thread. I gave my opinion. I challenge others opinions. Doesn’t mean I’m mad. The OT has already shown me how ridiculous it is, I have been called racist multiple times as well as a white supramicist. It’s insane.

    The average 26 year old would probably assume this. What would you think I would think of you growing up in Gresham if you don’t mind me asking? Just curious was all.

    You still don't get it. Its HOW you challenge others opinions and then how you react when people respond to your challenge in kind is all.

    For example you think i'm making this serious when i'm trying to point out to you how you made it serious from the get go assuming I was being argumentative.

    I'm just showing you how you sound like you are serious, but you are not, but others can do that to, but then you take THEM serious. ;)

    Its all good. Already moved on. :)

    For the record, I said grow up, actually slamming myself as an old fart. You are 26. Not 12. ;)

    See how you took me serious but I wasnt?

    Because whenever you have addressed me in the past on topics like this, it’s never been good or productive so why would it change now?

    Man you and I couldn’t be more opposite in our way of thinking about society and race and politics is all. I was just trying to get an idea of why. Your age, and where you grew up are huge factors in this and just wanted to know your situation. There is a reason people raised in the city think one way and guys from the country another. ALways fascinates me the maps on the news showing how people vote, based on where they live.

    You can tell where they have electricity and where they don’t based on who they voted for.

    I was basically raised in the country but it doesn’t determine my ways of thinking. It’s not like this is the only place I have been. Been to Portland a lot, been all over Oregon. It’s what I see and have seen. I’m not right or left. I don’t vote. I hate politics. You can’t make assumptions based off where people are from. Stereotypes exist sure but not everybody is the same.
