As for the pretending to be black. well since civil rights don't apply to you. you either don't live in america, or you are not black.. which even than they actually apply to you, yet, you claim that things that have effected blacks in the history of the USA don't effect you. So which is it, are you black and in another country, or are you not black?

considering you've latched onto that post. Go back and re-read it and make sure you quote me properly. Never did I state "Civil Rights do not affect me" that is a straight out LIE and if that's what you need to do to try and prove a point, then it goes back to my point that you need to try and the two way adult conversation.

Republicans opposed the ERA and equal pay provisions for women. They oppose the right to abortion and even birth control for women. They opposed the rights of native Americans to sovereignty on their own reservations and we do not even have to talk about gay rights because the Republicans hate gays almost as much as they do Mexicans.

Oh I am sorry, you said none of it applies to you, not that none of it affected you. Really not much of a difference.

Why do you libs praise diversity so much if it breeds crime, divides societies, and destroys civic life?
It really makes me angry when the liberals tell minorities that they have to "be" a certain way. The libs tell minorities that they are "victims" and this is something that keeps them in poverty, on government assistance, and in forces them to spend life in the ghettos.

The libs tell women the same darn thing. The libs try to make women think they must vote democrat because the Republicans hate you. Newsflash: It was the libs that passed a healthcare bill that allows convicted sex offenders to have insurance coverage that allows them to get Viagara so they can rape more women. It was the libs who are refusing to stand up for women's rights in Islamic countries. It was a liberal who went to China talking about the Arizona law as being a human rights violation when China forces the abortions of millions of female fetuses.

FYI: I am a conservative woman because I learned to think for myself. I don't want and refuse to listen to liberals trying to tell me how to think or vote. I am an adult and I can do my homework. I think it is time we stop telling minorities how they must think and who they must vote for and let them start figuring it out.

Funny how you chose NOT to post the entire discussion. Typical when you need to try and back up a lie.

Now point to the LIE where I stated that
1. I wasn't black
2. I wasn't in the U.S
3. Any mention of my stating that Civil Rights do not apply to me.

You have been shown as dishonest and someone who completely fails at having an adult discussion. You've attempted to force your VIEWS on others and when that fails stoop to lying.

The average house you can buy here for $125,000 is over a million there. Canada is nice but it is cold. I don't like cold weather.
Wow you should be a comedian. Liberalism hasn't failed Europe, ha! That's why the euro is on the verge of collapse, and their spend happy liberal governments have spent their countries into massive debt and are being forced to having their sovereign countries being bailed out and having to use austerity measures right?

You could also say the Dollar is on the verge of collapse and is only propped up by China.

3. Any mention of my statint that Civil Rights do not apply to me.

quite simple.. the post stated facts about the percentages of republicans and dems that voted for the civil rights act.. etc...

You state that you read the post and it don't apply to you, if the facts don't apply to you.. than logic would say, you are not american or you are not black.

I have never attempted to force my views on anyone... well, I take that back, my view is people should quit stereotyping, and I guess I have tried to force that too much.
