Nice try with the white damsel in distress stories.

It doesn’t happen like that in real life. Once or twice a year, maybe. Been there, done that. Dealt with it. Learned from it. But daily? “Near constant”? Doubtful. But okay. Fine. Whatever. That’s not my issue.

“Gee, coop71, how could you possibly know about black people and their behavior?”

I’m a reasonably attractive female who went to a huge high school. Blacks made up 60% of the population. My parents taught, and my younger sister currently teaches in a 90% black school district in a very racially divided state in the south. My folks were in that district for over 35 years. They recently moved away. I went out for a week and helped them move. The last night before we left, tons of people came over to say goodbye. At least half were black. Some were students. Some were coworkers. Some were just friends.

My sister (an attractive female with a big rack) has been teaching black kids for almost 14 years. My older sister (very attractive, small rack) has been teaching in suburban Houston - currently still including the New Orleans/Katrina escapees that never went home - for 20+ years. And during my broke college days, I lived in a super cool house in a very poor black neighborhood. And, to drag out the old chestnut: I have friends who are black. Who are equally embarrassed and outraged by the race-baiting of other blacks.

You get back what you give out. With any race. There are exceptions - these horrid kids who taunted the 3 year old are a part of that exception for obvious reasons - but rarely to never have any of my family members, or me, ever had issues with black people. Nor have their white friends. Nor their friends.

I stand by what I said. You made a nasty, rotten blanket/general statement about an entire race, and that’s an irresponsible thing to do.

"Nice try with the white damsel in distress stories. It doesn’t happen like that in real life."

I'm afraid it does. Maybe the "reasonably" attractive part has something to do with your personal experience.

I have my own tales of harassment by black males, and they did not end in my teen years. Turning them down when they make advances often makes them react with hostility. One guy stepped close to me and said, "What's the matter, don't you like the black meat?" I imagine some women might cower and apologize for seeming racist, but I don't intimidate very well. I replied, "No, I don't. What are you going to do?" His response was a string of curses I won't repeat. And that is ONE particular incident. I won't bother with more because you will likely discount them as lies, just as you did with your other fellow Freepers.

People like you with your kum-ba-yah notions of the real world need to wake the hell up. I don't expect you will, though. It would require you to feel less self-congratulatory about your sensitivity.

I made a statement based upon my experiences with American blacks and I’ve made clear that the actual Africans I know are decent people. It’s not a ‘racial’ thing and I’ll thank you not to bring that up again.

And if you want to prove something by living around them then feel free. Myself, I’m happy to live in a place where I don’t see them anymore.

Who do you think you are........dismissing and ridiculing FReepers true life accounts.

Consider your self lucky you weren’t constantly harassed and sexually groped like I was by a black thug. Instead of ridiculing those of us who were, maybe you should thank The Good Lord you were not, and leave it at that.

Your “let us all just hold hands and join a commune” post is ignorant and naive at best.
