"Bull squat."

Hmm, I'm sure you don't really mean that.

"I say bull squat again.."

Oh, well maybe you have another point?

"Too many blacks have remained on a plantation of their own making....looking to Government for their every need and believing the poverty pimps and folks like yourself telling them that the government broke a promise 150 years ago and that is what is responsible for "bad race relations"..."

You misunderstand me. I don't try to tell blacks any such thing. I was just trying to explain to you what blacks often tell me when I ask about such stuff. I've never tried to tell a black person what to believe or feel about these issues. But, like I said, I do agree that they have legitimate complaints about these issues, amongst others. If you don't believe that, maybe you're not as well informed on the subject as you assume.

It's my opinion that these things do represent real problems that exist between the races. And I, personally, would like to see us have better relations. So, regardless of merit, I take such opinions seriously and try to find solutions.

And by the way, VMGR-252, MAG 14 (among others). Semper Fi.

To net it out....

I remain adamant - that any black who feels they're entitled to 40 acres and a mule today --- when NONE of them were ever a slave and none of the slave holders are alive today....and after all America has done to compensate for past "wrongs" -- then that person is one I'll elect to ignore...since they are obviously insatiably greedy, dependent on taxpayers or devoid of self worth or pride.

I'd be interested in hearing how one would even DEFINE an eligible black...
Must one be 100% black -- with NO polluting white, Indian or other racial mixture?
How does one prove - they are directly descended from slaves, and didn't enter the country after the end of salvery?
How does one prove they were not descended from black slave takers or slave holders? There were many.

It's a totally insane concept -- and blacks would do well to drop it.

If ANYONE has been working hard lately to worsen the racial atmosphere - it has been the lunatic black leadership as provided by Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Conyers, the NAACP, Nation of Islam, Black Panthers, etc, etc.....

I've reached the point where I'm turning a deaf ear to their constant bitching and blaming whitey for all their problems.....

I'm no longer a compassionate listener to their bitching.
If you wish to give credence or sympathy to their bitching - have at it.. Just please don't ask me to pony up any more "white guilt" money to blacks.

I have no guilt...I feel no guilt..
My family didn't get here until 1930 - and none of us ever took, sold or held slaves... In fact we were near slaves ourselves for a couple of decades.

Semper Fi
