Are Interracial Couples Accepted In Alaska (Specifically Anchorage)? (Hughes: rent, lease)

[sun queen]

Rainy I am not going any futher with u on this matter. U can write whatever way u please and think whatever u want. I bet if we start looking at educational background mine is superior to yours. Have u ever heard of diversity training? It can be a beautiful thing. This forum is about the exchange of ideas. People do not have to agree, but there is no need to take a position that belittles another person to get your point across. I am sure there is a more postive way to do that. Hope u r not offended...just educating u.

[Rainy]

Oh, I've taken diversity training; have u?

You must have gone to school in Cali.

I really don't care if u r offended or not.

This forum is about the exchange of ideas; you are correct in that. It is not about finger wagging because somebody breathes in what you consider to be the wrong octave.

I noticed you couldn't answer my question about what makes you qualified to preach to others about how they should phrase things. The man is involved with a lady who he refers to as black; he better than anyone should know if that's okay with her, and not up to some self righteous self proclaimed PC flock follower on the internet.

We tend not to be sheep up here; is that okay with ewe?

Couldn't resist.

Oh Rainy, remind me NOT to get in "u'r" bad side. You wield your pen (keyboard?) like a razor! LOL. Must be the bear in you.

[Rainy]

Gracias, Mal. It isn't the bear in me though; it's the red fox. Whoops. Is it PC to say "red"? Probably not.

I got this way by thinking and speaking for myself rather than letting someone who has let someone tell them what to think and say tell me what to think and say. Better a red fox than a white sheep...

Oh, and I'm not offended by your attempts to educate me, sunqueen. I'm too busy laughing at the thought of someone like u trying to tell me about words. You people in the lower 48 really do take yourselves and your self impressed PC garbage entirely too seriously.

thats a bunch of bs rainy!as far as the california insults??? i have lived in alaska for 32 years and i am from cali,been back to cali several times and for you to sit there and talk your crap about someone and insult them and the state they live in,its not the state its certain people.its one thing to defend someone but to out right judge someone because what?they don't live in alaska?too funny,and alot people do the u thing to make it quicker to write,but you know that, your pc educated right?i am not here to join in on your guys little meow fight i just think its wrong for her to judge on someone saying black people, and you to judge someone who lives in a state other than alaska.

[Rainy]

What was that?

Sorry you think I'm judging someone because they don't live in Alaska, but that's your problem, not mine. Perhaps read my posts again...my comments towards her were directed at her stance about "educating" me...and others.. on how to type, and pointing out to her that we tend to think for ourselves up here rather than let some PC sheep machine control our vocabularies. And, if I'm not mistaken, sq lives in AZ.

We have to think for ourselves here. It's one of the survival mechanisms inherent in the human psyche that works for life in the North.

Plenty of anti-Cali rants in this forum if you want to hone up your writing skills defending it. Good luck with that and have a lovely evening.

[akroxy]

what one might think of a certain state is a matter of personal opinion.and thanks i will have a lovely evening,i'm on my way out the door to do just that.maybe you should try it sometime,get out of the house rainy, smell the fresh air,maybe take a nerve pill and chill a bit..try not to let someone on the net get your feathers ruffledseriously though in her last post she had smiles and winks,sometimes when people write things it ends up looking wrong,not saying that was the case with her but thats what she said she has no reason to lie..i don't care though, whatever makes your world turn...enjoy,adios

[Rainy]

Adios. Yeah, I noticed she winked at me when she remarked on educating me.

I get out of my house plenty and think you're pretty out of line with your comments about that. Right now I'm enjoying reacquainting myself with the forums after a little too much time out of my lair

I don't take drugs but thanks for your concern.

What have we learned from the original question in this thread? Interracial couples are accepted in Alaska but you better be darn careful what you write in a forum regardless of race.

[mal_flisk]

I wouldn't go that far. Folks in Alaska have to hear our tourists and visitors tell us what we're doing wrong throughout most of our summer every year. It sometimes hits a nerve, and people sometimes have a reflex action to jump into this as if it were an attack on our ways and methods.

Alaskans might not be as PC as folks outside would like. We tend to act with better intentions without losing ourselves in "challenged" vocabulary that seems to emanate from the states beneath. It's kinda like the bad odor from a basement with a mold problem.
