7 Things I Can Do That My Black Son Can’t

I love the responses. If someone doesn't post within 90 minutes everyone is "See I told you so!"

Anytime you are ready you can post something meaningful.

If this thread was black male(insert random crime here), I'd wager you 5 dollars there'd be so much traffic, you'd need a stop light to control the flow.

I just saw it, and haven't even read the OP yet. I just thought it was funny how some here starting going off right away with the "See I told you so" It's cool. I get it. Some are always seeking out racism no matter what.

I don't see anyone saying "see, I told you so" unless you're reading something into the responses that I'm not.

I think it's mostly just amusement that it seems there are people under the impression that black people are the ones who play the race card. And if a white man dares to suggest that hey, these complaints might be valid, nobody's around.

When a black man makes the exact same statements in this article, people are quick to jump on him for making excuses or seeing racism in everything.

Tedious isn't it.

Highly unlikely to happen.

No response. No one wants to hear from a white guy talking about racism.

You know this.

Doesn't surprise me that the usual suspects haven't touched this.

How's that?

Point taken. He just copied a lot of stuff other people said and made it into his answer. Go figure.

I have noticed in VJ that the majority of racist or race-charged threads are not originated by white westerners.

Hey!!! What are you trying to say?

This man has a legitimate complaint and I shared it. I am not attempting to be racist nor start a race-charged thread at all. This is something I legitimately have to worry about as my husband. This is a problem for many couples who have mixed-race children with a black person.

P.S. I'm not really mad. I think the little ranters are cute.

:rofl:

You had me there for a split second!

Well done!!!

How's that?

If this article was written by a black man, there would be links of violence and talks of the crime rate. He'd be denounced as playing the race card.

Thank you. Thank you. I try my best.

I think you can give up on a legitimate conversation about this topic. It just won't happen.

The delusional posts in thread are hilarious.
