The one I was making for about 1/2 this thread. Lucky's question, as per usual, makes no sense. <BR/><BR/>"There's nothing like a bunch of white people discussing...black people."<BR/><BR/>I know. Crazy the way those stupid white people marched with Dr King during the 60's. Those crazy union soldiers who went to war over slavery. The white congressmen and Senators who voted in civil rights. The idiot white people who donate money to United Negro College Fund, or who joined the NAACP. Lucky thinks it really wasn't any of those stupid white people's business discussing black people's issues. Apparently Lucky is joining the bandwagon of those who are denying that kids have to deal with the accusations of "acting white", and more importantly denying that white people can even discuss it.<BR/>So we can add racist to Lucky's resume.jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01892213227811281098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-14131319164976537192007-11-12T22:19:00.000-06:002007-11-12T22:19:00.000-06:00"There's nothing like a bunch of white people disc..."There's nothing like a bunch of white people discussing...black people."<BR/><BR/>No one discussing black people lucky.

All there is is people who think their own way and disagree with the way everybody else thinks. And "crazy" is as "crazy" does. Ever hear the term "crazy like a fox" ? And do do know what it means ? <BR/> Think carefully now and dont put your foot in your mouth again. As for the boyo below, nobody comments after my posts because they aren't smart enough -or patient enough- to try and refute every point I make.<BR/>Of course I dont make it easy for them to do so, but that's not my point. My point is that I disagree with just about everything today and I have good reasons for doing so: I'd like to see all our children survive and prosper into the future -especially my own.
