40 percent of blacks in the blackest of any state voted to keep our state flag

we simply have a better class of blacks and unlike pc folks here live in a state where racial distinction is not just on tv commercials but a large fact of everyday life

I’m glad that I looked at Robbin’s replies before replying to him/her myself. You saved me the trouble, and I thank you. ;o)

BTW, just for Robbin’s edification, the Mississippi state flag is embedded with the confederate flag, and 40% of the blacks in the state voted to keep it.

“we simply have a better class of blacks and unlike pc folks here live in a state where racial distinction is not just on tv commercials but a large fact of everyday life”

I agree with you that we have a better class of blacks...they are homeowners, business owners, professionals...for the most part not ghetto, as they appear to be in the big cities. Many of them haven’t bought into the “government is the solution” rationale. Racial distinction is a fact of life everywhere, but it doesn’t seem to hamper those in my neck of the woods.
