perhaps. I wonder what was the truth behind this story. It seems too outrageous to be true — perhaps there is something we’re not being told about here
Cronos, I'd very much like to believe there's more to this story. But . . . I was born, grew up, and live down here (the Upper South in my case), and as much as it pains me to admit it, I would not be one bit surprised if this weren't true exactly as it's written. There are some people to whom "race mixing" is the supreme societal taboo, and though their numbers may have diminished somewhat they have not disappeared, and probably never will. Those who said this attitude would die with the older generation, I'm afraid, were wrong. I don't get it; I don't understand it; I don't know where it comes from. It certainly doesn't come from the Bible (much as liberals may like to believe that to be so). It's just an (apparently) ineradicable aspect of American culture. The only reason it doesn't upset me like it used to whenever I hear such prejudices from someone is that I'm older now and I understand that some problems will never be solved (short of the Redemption, may it come soon).
I despise the "official" Black leadership, and my feelings toward the great mass of grassroots Blacks who follow them, I'm afraid, isn't very charitable. But however much I may scream about it, I'm honest enough to admit that once upon a time American Blacks were nothing but rednecks with a tan, and the hatred of their "co-religionists," "fellow countrymen," and "fellow Southerners" was unleashed upon them to such an extent that they will never forget and very probably never forgive. They'll certainly never trust us again.
An entire population of native-born (been here since 1619), Southern English speaking Protestants (who were originally Republican) have become a hostile alien force wishing our destruction in great part due to this traditional, yet absolutely groundless, hatred.
You reap what you sow. I'm convinced that we're being punished, and most justly.
That doesn't, of course, change the fact that one day the same G-d will punish Blacks just as long and just as hard for their sellout to radical leftism.
