With all due respect, your profile says you've been an RN for five years. Are you a Registered Nurse? Did you have to go to college to become a Registered Nurse?

I'll say this without singling anybody out, and I've done it myself from time to time...

Maybe every now and then it wouldn't be such a bad idea to take a break from here. When people start to really get upset, I mean to a point where you walk away from here and you still think about this stuff, that's a good time to stay away for a while. The forum will still be here, and the mud wrestling will still be going on when the time is right to come back.

Sometimes people get so upset by what they see here or by the interactions they have with other people. When that happens, it's time to take a breather, join us on the baseball forum, or whatever.

One thing about this particular forum... I guarantee you nobody is ever going to change anyone else's mind. Sometimes it's just better to back off for a little while.

How many of those threads were started by regulars here? That should clue you in on what's going on.

Why, are you jealous? I do the night shift on a psych floor,any other questions?

Oh yeah,while doing home care a few years back,there were white people who refused to have black nurses. To me,that maybe about race or preference.

Back to the threads.......

No offense, and I know you weren't responding to me; but you are being a little bit rough on people who are only trying to talk to you. I don't believe anyone has treated you that way on this thread.

the racists here represent the ignorant and scared. on line they feel very free to spew their hatred. in real life some are obvious but many hang in the closet or wear a white sheet

"It's the "smart" people who know how to work the system who gain power and can be dangerous"

Like Obama?

Nitsua asked me a question.

Now,I know racis, is not always about black and white,but I don't see too many anti asian threads or anti native american threads. I only see anti black threads with regards to race.
