Oh boy

Oh boy

An epiphany? glad to help.

No Marc, I've had this conversation on here a hundred times before or more.

There are differences, even if you choose not to consider them. Perhaps a sociology class would be of benefit.

Would that be the same class that has seemingly failed you on numerous fronts? No thanks!

If you like, Marc. If you like.

As to your questions, Knock yourself out.

If you like, Marc. If you like.

There is a lot that can be derived from such short answers from one who loves to write. Self examination might be one of them.

You can search the archives under "black history month" - I even posted a link for you above.

I honestly really can't be arsed to rehash old discussions just to respond to your baiting.

I think our friend Hunt must have gained an inheritance and feels it is "blood money" and this is why the massive white Guilt.

As for me, ever since I was a child, I have been schooled, worked and even lived side by side with Blacks.

They have had every opportunity and struggle that I have had.

I nor most of my white friends have had any advantage over anyone else... except by the effort we put forth.

I have seen friends and co-workers of both colors rise to the level of achievement they were due.

I can honestly say I have never known anyone who would want to "cheat" an African American out of what he has worked for and earned.... even people who don't care for Black on the whole.

I'm not saying it can't happen, or doesn't happen but when one considers in many vocations and areas Blacks dominate whole sectors in population and it might be just as likely whites are a victim of the buddy system at times too. (thats life)

Where does all this white guilt come from? I can only imagine, from people who have had some "Kennedy type advantage" or from people who love the superior feeling one senses when, in his own imagination he places himself on the side of "Right".

The sad thing about painting ones self as the guy with the "white hat"..... this cartoon requires a victim to be painted -in order to save the day.

[Trumplestiltskin 5,791]

Ah yes, White Guilt. Must be it

If you want to go around making out that society is equal and in doing so totally ignoring the many tangible indicators that say very clearly that it is is not, then that's your business. Selective White Ignorance is what it is.

Nail has been squarely hit on the head.

How you percieve Six isn't how he percieves himself to be. You are choosing to feel inferior to him, and therefore ascribing negative associations to that percieved superiority. That is all in your head Danno, Marc, not in his, or mine for that matter. You need to learn to feel good about yourselves

Did you get permission to speak for six or do you have him on your lap with your hand up his back?

[Peikko 1,575]

I am not speaking for him, it's obvious that he doesn't see himself as superior , I don't feel inferior to him or his opinions. Why do you feel inferior to him Marc?
