Its amazing a person can not speak their mind without being called a racist, an uncle tom, or have their race questioned.
I know the economy is bad, people are down on their luck and I know this is the internet and we have people who LOVE the anonymity of the internet. So hiding behind reputation comments and alternate accounts isn't really surprising.
I know these are the same people who infested (occupied) public parks because they failed and want a bail out, the same people who tried to stop others from getting to work, while yelling "working is slavery," and spewing their hate.
Maybe I shouldn't care much. You guys love to pull the race card. Rather it's the White Liberals, Black Liberals or whoever, it seems to be your primary weapon. Who can blame you? Year 5 the economy is still ****ty, deficits, debt, unemployment. There are few positive things you can say about your president.
A lot of that effort can perhaps go into getting a job, improving your own circumstances (unless you are just a leech), improving the your communities, or the world as a whole.
Hey you'd rather sit unemployed in your mothers basement hiding behind your mothers computer making baseless accusations. With your "hopey changy" poster, next to your occupy poster be my guess.
As long as there are people willing and ready to shout "RACISM", the very thing they are complaining about will never go away!
THEY are feeding it and nurturing it just as much if not more so than the people they are accusing!
If they would expend as much energy trying to improve their lot in life as they do complaining that life is unfair (of course it is, fairness is not a god-given right!), they would be a LOT better off!
They should also keep in mind that if their ethnic or racial group is cursed with a stereotype, it behooves them to rise above it, and make a positive effort to dispel it! At any rate, DO NOT reinforce it!
And I wouldn't be advising people about improving themselves if I were you. I doubt that you're raising much hell on the ladder of success yourself. After all, you're here, aren't you? SMH..
As to your ideas about race, I have no idea what you're talking about. If someone is being a racist, then they should be called one. If someone is Tomming, then they should be referred to as a Tom.
If these terms don't describe you, then why are you worrying about it?

A little more clarity about exactly who you are addressing would be nice!
Didn't say that. I'm sure that no one around here is missing any meals.
But let's just say that Warren Buffet types aren't hanging around here either.
So yea...the implication includes me too. A middle manager at some company just trying to get by in life. I'm no great shakes, and neither is anyone else around here. For sure not enough to be telling others what to do as if anyone here is doing so great.

How do you know anything about anybody on this forum unless they tell you?
I have made no secret of the fact that I am a 36 year old electronics technician, and a virgin, who plans to study law.

Are you somehow clairvoyant?
Nope...even better than that!
I'm God. LMAO..
In all seriousness though, I don't need to be clairvoyant. I just know what I know.
Are there people around here that are mega-successful? 1 or 2 perhaps, but I doubt it.
