When you make a post like this, it's going to be ripped to shreds. It becomes part of the argument. Meanwhile, there will be posts about "it's a two way street, but black ppl" where the other side of the street never gets addressed. And the ones who are looking for a flaw in your argument won't dare bring that to light. It is better that we tone down our rhetoric so we can see who is truly open-minded. Those who are open to honest discourse will stay, those who aren't will suddenly vanish from the thread.

 

Thanks for clearing that up. My apologies for giving you a man's respect.

 

Because I don't know if you're a full blown conscious coon (see steven a. smith) or just a guy that hasn't achieved a level of knowledge to understand your enemy, I'll leave you with this advise in hope that you may be the later.

 

Get off your knees. I say this with love.
