Resentment over the mere mention of tax break for the descendents of slaves? :sigh: Well anyway some people are too sensitive.

Are you freeping kidding me? You think people are merely too "sensitive" if they think that it's not a good idea for taxes to be decided on the basis of race? You don't think Alan Keyes' idea wouldn't cause resentment, when he wants all blacks in this country to be free from paying income tax, and put all the tax burden on the whites? Maybe you just think anything Alan Keyes says is just peachy, but what you euphemistically refer to "tax breaks" would be putting all the tax burden on white people, while Shaquille O'Neal and Tiger Woods and Oprah Winfrey (and their potential descendants) would go tax-free. Last time I checked, discrimination was banned in this country, but you're willing to not only swallow it, but tell us it tastes great, because your hero supports it.

I did not say I agree with his idea, but I'm not having a kneejerk reparations reaction like everyone else seems to be but nevermind.
