AMEN! Gramps exposed me. Good on you. Now can you go away? Damn, you're a stubborn old coot.
I'll go away if and when I feel like it.
In the meantime, if and when I feel like it, I'll simply respond to your blind, hate and blame filled posts, and expose what you're saying.
If you don't like it, you're more than welcome to go away. I'm sure there is somebody somewhere who will gulp down your crap as if it isn't what it clearly is.
Perhaps there are things in your own life that you simply can't bring yourself to look at honestly.
The only nerve it strikes with me is how painfully obvious it is that there are so many adults out there who have the critical thinking skills of second graders.
I googled the first 3 lines of that "poem" and the results were pretty interesting.

Oh my Gosh, that was Michael Richards defense speech?!? Wow. Look Omaha Rocks. I can't stand you, but I have never called you a racist and never thought the stuff you siad on here came from that sort of place, no matter how much I disagreed with it. However, if after knowing the intent behind this so-called poem, you still want to defend it, then it is obvious what you truly are.

And your point is?
Hmmm... Are there stupid White racists? Yep! Absolutely! Are there stupid non-White racists? Yep! Absolutely!
But what threads like this (and others here on CD, of essentially the same topic) do, is expose the fact that it is now PC to blame Whites for everything that's wrong in the world, and for Blacks to use that as an excuse for doing stupid, self-destructive things. It is now PC for all non-Whites to be hate-filled racists, and to do so with immunity. All a person has to do is fall back on the "one drop rule", and you can be as bigoted as any hood-wearing KKK coward, and you cannot be called a racist.

I'm not defending anything.
I'm simply exposing your self-righteous racial hatred - as if I really needed to do that, considering what a stellar job of it you do all by yourself.

Indeed.
This thread is about the Confederate flag and what it means to people.
That 'poem' purports to be some sort of manifesto of white rights.
If we had an organization for only whites to "advance" our lives, we'd be racists.
You have Cesar Chavez Day.
You have Yom Hashoah
Do you *really* not see how ridiculous the above is?
Do you know who Cesar Chavez was, or what Yom Hashoah is?
(BTW, neither of those are federal holidays.)

There has been some hyperbole in this thread, but what I've bolded is really a bit much. Aren't we in Great Debates here?
I do not recall anything in this thread that painted whites as everything that's wrong with the world.
Has the opportunity structure been skewed in favor of whites?
Of course it has.
Is that changing? Yes.
Should the race card be played?
No.
Does everyone have the legal right to display the Battle Flag?
Yes.
Do we all have to like it?
No.
Indeed.

Right.
I have never owned a Confederate Flag, and never will. I have never flown one, and never will.
But even if I was from the South, and had some vested interest in it, I still wouldn't fly a Confederate Flag now because I live in a black neighborhood. And even though I could try to make a point of it, I wouldn't fly it because it would probably offend some of my neighbors - and it's just not worth it.
I think to some southerners, it means being southern, or at least that is what many of them tell me. Personally, I think some people could be lying as well.
Eh. I know I'm Southern, just like I know I'm American. I don't need to salute a bit of cloth to prove either one. As for being proud to be either one...it's nothing I personally did that made me an American woman or a Southerner. I'm grateful for my heritage and my citizenship, and mighty pleased by it, but I can't say I'm proud of it.
Why do you assume others are lying?
