I've lived all around the country, natalie. In my personal observations, blacks and whites interact most frequently and most warmly in the South. Stereotypes often conceal more than they reveal.

And Washington State was the epicenter of the neonazi movement in the 1990s. Your point? Mine point is that there is a lot more to the south than what many focus on. Trying to make the South "home to stormfront" and nothing more is as stupid as saying that Washington State is just a place where skinheads roam.

Yet, you never gave an answer to the question I posted directly to you.

You suggested that I posted an erroneous picture of white people lynching a man and that I was impugning their charator.

However when given proof that the man being lynched was the subject of my post you disappeared??

My question was, how am I impugning the character of the people based on their own individual actions???..or do you choose to ignore history??

Please don't insult my intelligence, some slaves were intimidated into giving an idealizes account of human bondage and you want to pin that off as factual information...really no one can be that stupid.

Well, I take that back...
