So because you don't want to hear about what is factually correct, the forum is racist?

No, just posted an article that disputes the crap that is continually posted on this forum about black people and welfare as if white people don't get their fair share. I have worked and paid taxes since the age of 15 and have never been on welfare or any other government subsidized program.

I also paid taxes since my first paycheck when I was 16. Never on the dole so I never got my fair share of freebies. I want my fair share of free stuff too!
