Are there any ALL WHITE ONLY Fraternities? I really doubt that there are.

It costs Florida more in damages than it does in revenue generation. That’s good news!

Floridians should be happy the cockeyes are taking their race riots someplace else.

Why is everything racist or do black people see racism everywhere? Are they obsessed with being victims? That not part of MLKs dream.

Lot of Italian Doctors in the Northeast when I was growing up. Italians and Jews. The WASPS were mostly specialists. Our family docs were French brothers. One GP and other did OBGYN

Rare to see and Irish doctor or a Polish one
