Yes, and the same happens with both race issues and anti-gun issues.

It's all good for discussing, until it turns personal...

Marvin just make sure it is personal all the time. generalization is his favorite term... Talk about 5 persons in a story and it is about "generalization" of all what ever.. Isis ect...

So what will your anti - 2nd article of the day be today.

Yes, I don't agree with the way the second amendment is practiced and promoted by people like yourself. I think it is highly irresponsible and I think you are blinded to the fact that the arms lobby is complicit in the gun-related deaths of thousands of Americans every year.

I'm not forcing you to agree with that either. However, it isn't relevant to what I said.

I guess what you just wrote above isn't 'making it personal' ;-)

I just call it like I see it, and so do a few others. Maybe you should stop being a racist, but I know it's hard for you since you've been taught to hate.

Are you really at the level of editing others quoted posts, does that honestly not strike you as being just a little bit childish?

Just trying to keep you honest. tough job, but someone has to do it.

Marvin the trouble is I recognize my racist side .. someday you will have to recognize yours.

I am bigoted towards ignorant and hateful people. Maybe one day you're learn the difference.

Least your honest. Marvin is a great guy, but you are correct. Very bigoted

Come again? Who am I bigoted against?

Prejudice would be a better word. You post a never ending series of news bites, that try to lead one to believe that the majority of white people are racist filled, and that black people can not succeed in this country merely thru hard work decent behavior and education, because of the white conspiracy against them. I would say that qualifies fairly strong

To quote your own saying, if I post an article that shows racism, is it not true? So, it's fine to post articles that show when black people act up. Then we can talk all day about what's "wrong" with the black community. But when the light is shone on the other end, there's an issue with it. Because you think I'm saying that all white people are racist.

Let me clear this up. Do I think all white people are racist? Of course not. Do I think there's inherent and institutionalized racism that makes it harder for black people and other minorities? Yes, and there are tons of data to prove this. Everyone knows if you're black you have to work harder than the average person. This isn't a myth, it's a way of life.

Your problem is, you've seen what racism used to look like so that's what it is in your mind. Anything less than that and it's not racism. So unless we're being called the N-word or being beaten in the street, it's our fault.

Please show this proof.

Posting a thread that shows the struggle of black people in America is different from saying the majority of white people are the root of this problem. However, I have noticed people in this area would like to point out every negative aspect of the black culture while ignoring outside anomalies black people face in their day to day journeys while living in the U.S. Then you twist these anomalies and try to make them the "norm" because you feel it is warranted because of your biased view of black people.

Again, please tell me why is it that black people with an associate degree cannot fair better than people with no degree at all? But yet and still you say education is one of the key things to helping the black society. Why is it a person with a black sounding name cannot get hired for a job? Why is it you are a robber or burglar when you are in your own home? Why is it a black office off duty reports a crime in progress and the cops arrive and kill the cop? The other guy is white so the black guy must be the criminal, right?

Please address these issues, the WHOLE picture, instead of one-sidedly pushing your biased point of views.

Just because you and other people have changed letters in words to make them fit your cause does not change the origins of the phrase.

Your comment is futile. It is clear you are cowering behind your above comment because you are incapable of a smart, intelligent, productive response to my questions. Noted.
