Actually, Ags, I’m done with this conversation. Call it what you want: a win, a conquest. Your overwhelming disdain for my viewpoints and your constant barrage of negativity has worn on me. My fiancee has noticed, my boss has noticed, my co-workers have noticed, and I’m a fool for letting you get to me.

I post on FR to share ideas, to discuss the events of the day, and to converse with like-minded individuals. You and I obviously don’t see eye to eye or are incapable of communicating ideas in a manner understood by the other. You’ve not answered a single damn question I asked, and the entire point to the article and to my initial post was concerning the laws (with which I disagree) that were passed by bigots during the Civil Rights era. I reiterate, I wasn’t alive then. I have no frame of reference, and all I was asking was for some help understanding the era. You’ve done nothing to advance my understanding and have done nothing but put me down for asking questions and for improperly using some biological terms that I’ve repeatedly admitted I used rhetorically.

I apologize for whatever real or perceived grievance you have with me or my manner of writing and speech. Call me a racist if you want. I simply want blacks to aspire to greatness. I don’t understand why they think we’re holding them back when we’ve given them everything by government fiat.

You’ve reduced my faith in the goodness of men, Agamemnon. You are arrogant, haughty, and you obviously like to correct people for their logic as evidenced in other posts I reviewed under your name. I’m sad that my last post degraded to petty insults, but you’ve done nothing to further my understanding of anything and have insulted everyone close to me.

I have no fight left in me. I’m depressed because of you and have lost sleep over this stupid argument. I’m not a racist and would prostrate myself at the feet of a black man to prove it. I hold no grudge and do not think myself superior to anyone; something to which you obviously have a problem admitting guilt. I bid you good day, and I will pray that I never have to cross your path again on these forums.

Regards,
Ron
