I can appreciate the honesty of the ad.
I just wish we were all allowed to be honest.
I wanted to put ‘No Mexicans or Russians or Moooslims’ in a car ad on craigslist and my wife made me take it off. (should not have showed her.)

I wouldn't live with blacks either. Not in my neighborhood and CERTAINLY never in my home.
They should have the same rights as I do.
If I were in need of a roommate, I would write in the same stipulation so people don't waste my time

Say no more.....some will not like what I am about to write.
Now he knows how many of us feel. Yes, indeed it is “RACISS!” He or she gets extra credit for being honest about his feelings.
Racism is not an abnormal feeling. It is how you act on that feeling.

How about “no loud music with talking in obscene rhymes?”

That is what “black studies” classes and such are for as well; I’ve seen the lost looks in their eyes when they are in integrated classes. After the first couple of semesters you would never see them anymore; they either retreated to the safe space of minority studies or dropped out... That's why "minority studies" is creeping into the mainstream freshman-level elective classes. Example: the University of Alabama has a freshman composition class which, when you read the syllabus, turns out to be a "history of rap and hip-hop music" class. Not surprisingly, the "professor" recently moved to Tuscaloosa from the Birmingham campus, where she taught *only* minority studies classes.
All she did was take one of those classes and repackage it to disguise it as a Comp 101 class. The son of a friend of mine is at Bama and sent his dad a link to that class info, just to see his reaction.

Whether they run up debt or just have us pay for it, they are just wasting time and “playing college” - just as unemployable when they graduate as when they entered...

“This is but another example to us that social media is not an effective platform to engage in complex dialog on seemingly intractable critical issues that have varied histories and contested understandings.”
This is blackspeak for if you are going to be racist don’t write it down where people can read it.

What white person would want to live with a black racist fool?
