Now, now. That isn't PC.
But what you are saying is that a group who was opressed has every right to opress other groups? Well then, that settles it. No more need for affirmative action. Affirmative action is for those who are opressed. If that opressed group is now the opressor....that changes things quite a bit. Right?

Also interesting to know I don't have to champion every cause. I can then believe that a black man shouldn't receive equal pay, and according to your logic, I wouldn't be racist. I don't have to champion every cause....right?

I didn't know there were socially conservative wards in DC. They must have all voted for McCain, have 2-parent households, be drug and violence free, and be against all social programs. This as an amazing new factoid to learn about!

Exactly. Why would a socially conservative group have voted for Obama???

And it's true. The number of black men on the "men seeking men" section of Craiglist seems way out of proportion with the actual percentage of blacks in the general population.

There are gay politicians and I couldn't care less about what they do in their private time, as long as they're not cheating, and screwing their constituents.

I don't believe that same sex couples deserve any special legislation because of the way they have sex. That's what I have said.

Nevermind black men on the DL.

What you should actually know is that the number of men ISO men posts on any and every Craigslist city outnumbers the posts for men ISO women, women ISO women, and women ISO men.

True fact.

Endlessly.

Especially reading through all the creatively worded threads.
