well

if the white racist hadn't made race something ugly and divisive, maybe, just maybe we would not have made such an issue out of race. The Amerikkkan white racist has given and keeps giving an understanding to people of color every day.

done

said you'd come out the woodwork, I was right.

white

people always have defined me in what I might find as an offensive manner. An offensive manner. Does the nword fit that offensiveness? Been used since before 'cracker'. When the klan was shooting up my grandfathers house and wounding my grandmother, according to my grandfather, "those cowards got to running when he started shooting back at the crackers", his quote. Spanish-American war vet, Kettle Hill not teddy's san juan cake walk. Would you like for me to go into what those cowards were shouting to my grandfather? Shouting why? shooting why? because "that nigger had too much land.". Direct quote among many. Please spare me any outrage at the word cracker. People been throwing hand grenades at me every since I've been black and yeah, you're right, I have been returning fire. Any questions?

no

my comments do not show naivete, are not false or insulting, they are the truth. Period. If you are white, male/female, gay, your rights are more entrenched and guaranteed than that of a black person. It's really that simple. Yeah I can get married, yet if SCOTUS says all minorities with brown skin are denied the right to vote, happened once before you know, I don't care how you want to cut it, you will get to vote if your skin is white no matter how gay you are. I have NO doubt about it.

you

will never convince me of anything. Even if you are right I will not listen to you. White gay males and females, if not obviously gay,and in most cases if obvious, I imagine do vote WITHOUT out any problems. During the time blacks were denied the vote, gay white males had no problem voting. Still don't. All this BS you write, just that. Huh, who do you think you're fooling. Your M.O. is obviously laughable.

yep

leave them anytime, I love to learn, still, at 65. Yep an old dog can learn. Since I hate google, I will duckduckgo the highlanders. That was that movie with Mel Gibson, right. Braveheart? They were Scottish. Same people?

this

discourse, to me, shows the importance of the fact that common ground can and must be found. I agree. You have my apology.

August 7, 2013

well

I'm willing to study and try to understand all injustice, I just have my area of special concern. All injustice is wrong, to LGBT or any minority. It's got to be overcome. Hopefully, one day. I'm 65 and fear I will be long dead and gone before that happens. But not dead yet, and yes I can still fight.
