A while back I toyed with the idea of posting a paragraph on FR with a genuine message made up of all acronyms....but it would take too much work to accomplish this nifty feat.

And no one would be able to decipher it, anyhow, LOL (or should I say "Laughing Out Loud")...ROFL.

If the USA is so racist, why are Africans trying so hard to get in? Why do African immigrants succed where native Americsn blacks fail? One reason — hire an African, and you get a stable worker; hire native American black and you all too often get a non-worker with an axe to grind.

“Undisputed co-host Shannon Sharpe”

Hard to watch before, UN-watchable now. Just another millionaire loud mouth.

“Does everyone have freedom and liberties and opportunity?”

Everyone has freedom. But opportunity seems to be daunting to the ignorant and lazy. That goes for real freedom too.

After being laid off 5 years ago at the age of 55, and encountering difficulty reentering the workforce in the field I worked in, I am making a second career doing something I have done part-time for over 30 years — teaching English as a Second Language. I am also an Orthodox Christian and a member of a parish that is loaded with immigrants. Between the two, over the years, I have come to know thousands of people who made a conscious decision to find freedom and opportunity in the country represented by that “piece of cloth.” One of my former students, from Ukraine, is an enthusiastic student of American history. He, along with plenty of others I have known, will make better Americans than a lot of people who just happened to be born here.

Anyone here remember this old song?

The flag didn’t “suddenly” become racist. So why is it that these a##holes held their tongues for 8 years while their boy was in the white house?

Why didn’t they challenge “the man” when one of their own held the seat of power?

Why didn’t they show the public the true face of the 21st century Democrat Party so that their pols would’ve been turned away in 2006, 2008, and 2012?

I were his boss, he'd be fired.

But you aren't and he won't be. Bayless was lame in his retorts. Afraid to appear racist, no doubt.

Over 180,000 blacks fought in the Union Army. Of that figure, 36,000 black men died fighting. These men fought so that all blacks could live free under that flag. Shannon is pissing on their graves.

Can you honestly say that everybody in America has freedom and liberties and opportunity?

Whom in America does not have freedom and opportunity? I am so sick of people tearing down this country. Here, we have established the highest standard of living for the most people in any nation in history. And yes, everyone does have opportunity. And nut-jobs want to tear it down. When it descends to anarchy and chaos and another civil war, I guess they'll blame racism then too, while they're starving.
