Better to focus on the REAL issues where there are truly injustices happening to other races not things where dicks are being dicks and recognizing that the dick MIGHT have been a racist doesn't help anything. Feel free to ignore them if that's what you want to do. This type of hand-waving is why racism still thrives in America. Because people take the Morgan Freeman route of thinking a problem will go away if you simply don't talk about it. That is not what I am saying at all. I am saying CHOOSE your battles, when a person is in a position of power did something that could have been racially motivated, THAT's an issue worth fighting and talking about. When a dick acted like a dick and MAY or may not have been a racist, but the people in power ignored the dicks claim. That is NOT worth talking about, it simply conflates the issues and makes you seem like you are going to scream racism anytime a white person is mean to a black person. --- RIP: Canuklehead, Karma: 1369 // RIP: Gen_Lee_Enfield, Karma: 1731 // RIP: Orlando of the Axe, Karma: 1642 // RIP nayr626 Karma: 4395 --They delivered! <cite>Dustin1280 posted [p:901381893] in BBQing whi...
