No, I have never taken you as a racist. You and I come down on different sides of political issues, but I suspect we could have a good debate, then drink out beers and eat our appetizers.

What it comes down to is what you allow your dogs to get away with while they're inside. There are people who let them lay all over their beds, couches, chairs and even tables after they've been outside roaming around with all sorts of dirt, bugs and insects, which quite frankly is just trifling.

And even if the dog is some weirdo that stays indoors all of the time and is also house trained, they will shed everywhere which will make the house smell bad if you're not a very clean person (and let's be honest, many people aren't).

A lot of people in my state consider having dogs in the house disgusting, of course we do not wear shoes in the house either... so dogs are a given. It's cultural.

I have 2 90 house dogs. Roomba has to go every morning, and I should mop every day, but it's more like once a week.

They are not allowed in rooms with carpet.

KILL off the whites? I hope you realize that 40% or so of whites do vote democrat. If they were trying to kill off whites, then how come the figure is that high?

No, this is just paranoia of the type that entered the heads of White Southerners 80 years ago, thinking if the blacks "took over", then whites would get persecuted.

Probably one of the things that is missing these days, just a basic idea of people getting along across all strata, across various subjects and views. I don't know, sad times were in. People are people, I've got no time for racism.

My office is pretty balanced between white and black. We have a couple of Hispanics and folks from
India, Pakistan and Trinidad.

Anyway the subject came up and I was really surprised at how many black people in my office think keeping pets in the house is disgusting.

Theroot.com seems to bear that out. Is it a socioeconomic thing more than a racial one ?

That’s what I would think. My office is blue-collar.

I’m vegan and my black vegan friends tell me they feel very out of place in their own culture. These are their words, not mine.


I avoid bbqs too lol.

I don’t care what color somebody is. It’s what is passed down to the next generation that concerns me.

Yeah I have a name for white people who think it’s okay to tie a dog to a post outside too. I was just shocked at how vehement they were about not keeping animals indoors. Is it a southern thing?
As a born and raised Texan, it is not a southern thing. As some one who has lived most of her life in multi ethnic neighborhoods, it isn't a culture thing ... it is a personal preference thing. Most black people I have met, will take care of their pets ... but there is always the one and he lived next door to me.

Co-worker needed a ride home from work. Her dog was chained outside ... a puppy that will grow into a big dog ... any way he was outside, because her husband was outside ... when they go in so does the dog.

I've house broke every one of mine; weight range from 4lbs to 65lb black and white lab. I said once how I did it and people told me that it was inhuman what I did ... so now it's a secret. I can house break a cat too ... yes, same way. But here is the thing ... they will tell me they need to go outside; sometimes I get woke at 2 a.m. and if I do not get up and put them out ... then I have a mess to clean up and they do not get scolded for my misbehavior ...

The browning of America is inevitable. May as well embrace it. I can’t think of a single downside.

The right should be happy about that.
Abortion rates have declined since 1973, as well, so there's that ...

There are some evidence to suggest that white women are actually less fertile Han blacks or hispanics.
I've been looking at this a long time and people on c-d by now probably go, on no ... here goes Ellis again

The CDC does not support the finding of infertility greater among white women. Visit their website to learn more ...

Because it is a strange phenomenon, they did look into it and there isn't anything strange to report about it, so far ...

There is no 'forced birth' scenario, there is, however, contraception and women have access to both.

Very problematic ideas baked into that statement. It assumes that whites own the USA whats funny is Hispanics will be considered white in a few decades just like how in the past Irish and Italians were not considered white.
