So many posts about blacks or Hispanics. I get that the Ferguson incident is still fresh on the mind. But let it go. It's really sad how many racist people there are in this country.

Politics is meant to divide people; Obama was the perfect candidate to follow Bush.

When people have been rejected by friends, ignored by family, and coworkers complain enough to get these people removed from work...they come to the internet. It's the last refuge for the bigoted morons, conspiracy theorists, and cranks that still exist in society. People try to have ago at explaining reality but usually without some actual personal psychiatrist helping them...it is pretty useless.

It's kind of fun to rattle the cages they built around themselves a bit, but it's better to not get drawn into it.

Because some people simply are and frankly it's good to see it out in the open. It's a reminder for others that are not racist just how ridiculous it is to judge someone on their race, religion or creed.

I think I disagree with that. That sounds like "your" opinion without any data to back it up, which (in itself) sounds "racist".

The "Ferguson incident" isn't on my mind, but, it's obvious you haven't let it go....

Agreed... I use to come here all the time to chat on my days off, but lately all the racist threads and racial talk has made coming here kind of revolting....

That may just be it! The normal people whether they be Black, White, or what ever are leaving this forum because of it, and all that's left are a bunch of miserable people who have nothing better to do with their time other than to overly obsess about race.

LOL....another racism thread. Great way to boost your view count If anyone anywhere comments about anyone not exactly like them then there is some form of racism occurring. So yeah, I am sure that there will always be racists unless no one ever says anything about anyone else ever.
