Excellent article, Lloyd. I like your picture, too - very sharp!
“Somebody should have checked your 6 before posting”
Who ‘should’ this “somebody” be and why?
What was the original question and whot do you NOT understand?
Hard working, polite, independent, not a victim. Sounds like Kenny didn’t spend much time in the govt school system.
The Confederate Flag has taken such a beating, all false! I’m a proud daughter of the South and that flag to me is part of our heritage...NOT HATE! Don’t broad-brush those of us who respect that flag as automatically racist. I realize there are those who are (racist) but a heck of alot more of us who aren’t. Wonderful story and it probably happens more than some want to admit.
As I have said for many years, sir, the color of the skin does not matter. It’s the size of the heart that counts.
Most of us, instead of looking for new friends, prejudge to protect ourselves. ‘Tis a pity.
Thanks.
“What was the original question and whot do you NOT understand?”
There was no original question. There was a statement you made about illegal aliens knocking on your door. While I agree that is annoying, irritating and should be illegal I cannot reconcile your statement with the info in the article.
‘Scuse me if I’m dense but I think there were a couple of others here that did not make a connection either.
Well, if more than one of “you” don’t understand then perhaps I have a communications problem.
OK, I have a communications problem. Now what?
As a new member, you are being ‘vetted’ if you like: are you sincere, and a poor communicator, or are you a disruptor.
You ask “Now what?”
Wait and see. Perhaps you will create responses and controversy; perhaps you will be ignored.
In regards to this particular article by Lloyd Marcus, he was raised in the housing projects of Baltimore, where he saw firsthand how government “help” destroys lives.
He has chosen to be a black conservative activist.
He wrote an article about a white southerner, who fit the leftist stereotype of ‘cracker’ redneck’ etc, and how his personal relationship with this man was rewarding to both of them.
For you to introduce illegal immigrants to this particular thread was not helpful to the theme of the article. So you have just “communicated” to the readers of this thread that you have a strong reaction to anyone asking for work, and make the assumption that they must be illegal.
Our current administration is trying as hard as possible to reduce our own native-born population to a situation similar to the Great Depression, viz. The Grapes of Wrath. Lloyd Marcus is giving us a first hand example!
Never heard of the guy and my opinions about anything is what we in America enjoy as a right. Now come the Thought Police(?).
May I just suggest that you go to the link for the American Thinker article and read the comments posted there. Very heartwarming by posters reminiscing about the America we seem to be losing.
Of course, you are entitled to think write and whatever you want on these threads. Just as I am entitled to comment on your comments.
If you have never heard of Lloyd Marcus, then you did not follow the Tea Party movement all across the US states to its completion in Washington on Sep 12. Lloyd was a highlight of the ‘entertainment.’
I believe you are simply lonely and in need of someone to talk to, go here: http://www.angelfire.com/ok5/we_listen/
You’re welcome.
Believe me when I say you are not alone.LOL
Oh, gosh, you have saved my life, now I don’t have to feel so alone any more!
I knew they could help you.
“Well by golly, I say let’s let them ILLEGAL ALIENS stay here...I’m so “touched”.
I smell troll. The article under discussion in no way mentions illegal aliens.
Did you have a point or just want to draw attention to yourself?
The lack of sunspots may be at fault here as my crystal ball is deeply affected by them. A thousand and one pardons for nibbling at anything with the word ‘illegal’ attached.
In other words you had no point.
My point is well presented. You need to look inward.
No because it mentions “his southern drawl” which is not something someone who grew up in a different country usually carries.
The question comes from being invaded by trolls here a good bit so rather than be mistaken as a troll don’t prove it by being combative!
