So, you are saying that blacks use the color of their skin to gain advantage.

So far, my color has given me no advantage in life. I have, however, been pulled over in my own neighborhood by a policeman, followed by store security (many times while shopping) and been treated like dirt by store clerks that I am sure less educated than myself. Its just life. I have worked hard for everything I have. So if you have a brochure or something on how this skin color thing can make my bank account larger, for sure let me know.

I have too. In fact my son was pulled from his car after being surrounded by police, thrown on the pavement and had a gun to his head because he resembled someone else driving the same type of vehicle.

I'm white and yes it happens to us too.

Now your opening things up. I'm white, and live on the border of Gary, Indiana. If you want to go there, we can start talking about the way I am treated living in this area.

My congratulations on your courage!

But, you asked about a "brochure" on making money form your race?

Hmmmmn.

Ask where Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton and Shiela Lee and a host of other democrat blacks got their millions in fees, travel, and possessions.

Ask where they got their power and media adoration.

The entire democrat party is pulling many undereducated along with that implied "rope" of "Vote democrat and we will get you reparations for claiming your ancestors were slaves."

THAT'S the modern brochure on power, money, and race.

(That, and a simple hatred of white conservative Christians being exploited by many "religious" and "secular religious" in the liberal communities.)

The original comment about "blacks use the color of their skin to gain advantage" was not referring to middle-class blacks who work hard and play by the rules.

It was a short hand for the poverty pimps like Jesse Jackson and his disciple of 12 years, Regena L. Thomas, the main subject in this story.

Sometimes this Internet format creates misunderstandings. I've been guilty of misreading other posters' intentions several times.

Well then, you need a little education by THE Mr Jesse Jackson on how to sue the living pooh out of the police man, the store security and store clerks for their treatment of you... You just dont know how the game works. ;)
