Here, here!
Did you ever answer my question...are you black?
Answer the question, and while you're avoiding that reasonable question, answer this: are you gay?
Your consistent stance over issues surrounding how members on this board feel about these two issues is
diametrically opposed to your views and stances, and can only lead us to think you are either strong sympathizer of those groups, or a member of those groups???
And there is nothing wrong with you being a member of either one, of both, but, since you won't answer a simple question, or two, it only leaves one to deduce from your views and strong opposition that you could be what you are not answering.
Only you can answer this, and by remaining silent, you make it that much more likely that you are what you support.
And BTW -
I am not prejudice. In fact, anyone who knows me would tell you that I am the most diverse Caucasian they've ever met! So, please
"Cease and desist" with the acussations...as they are malicious and meant only to illicit a response from me. Well, you have my response, so, knock off with the race card allegations.
Just because I stand by the verdict in Florida doesn't mean I'm racist or prejudice. My stance represents a patriotic view of our justice system; furthermore, I have the mindset that America is not as racist as it once was [or you want it to be]. If it were,
Watts would have been on fire an hour after the verdict was read!
We've come a long, long way since Watts, Rodney King, OJ Simpson and Tyisha Miller. But like the Rev says, there are still a small splinter group of
"racebaters" who want to stir things up, and make things ugly.
If I were you, I'd not be so concerned about a half Hispanic white man who that took things into his own hands and through a physical confrontation, ended up tragically taking the life of a hooded black teenager!
INSTEAD, be concerned with blacks KILLING blacks in places like Chicago, or New Your or LA. It the blacks want to protest, it should be over the ease of their young people getting guns and using them on each other at an alarming rate. It should be over their kids getting caught up in GANGS and using and selling drugs.
There are issues worth marching for. These are issues worth going to the Feds over and getting the Feds to do something to stop the senseless murders in the ghettos and barrios of our neighborhoods across this nation. Black on black; brown on brown has turned many neighborhoods into war zones.
My question to you, Zaac, is "Why are you not making a stance over this?"
As a born-again believer, who just happens to be white, I am greatly troubled over the loss of any black child or Hispanic child, or Asian child by illegal weapons, gang warfare, and drugs. I'm also troubled over
hate crimes leveled at gays and any racial group, including us white folk!
This is much more of a "cause" then the Zimmerman/Martin murder trial verdict, AND to be truthful, it should be the real cause you are fighting for!
I think that after reading this, you will admit that you don't know me as well as you pretend and profess to! In fact, anything you have said about me is based solely upon your own misunderstandings of what true Christians feel within when they see this nation going to hell over things that shouldn't matter; while they fight over things that only matter to them in a selfish, personal way!
