It is getting more and more apparent that there are posters who harbor ill feelings towards minorties, and they use their banner of "equal equality" as their marching card.Sad, that this stuff even needs to be an issue. How much does it really affect your life?
I know he did not mean it that way but I was wondering if the shoe was on the other foot what would be said." We elected a black President. Change is good."
How is that racist? He is saying a racial barrier has been broken which is good.

Don't you just hate it when the kids get on here and just read the original post. The ADHD does not allow them to follow along before submitting their own post. They miss the entire direction or flavor of this thread.
