This article kinda made me laugh. I am not racist. I truly believe that a person is a person. It’s their character that makes them good people, not their skintone.
Anyway.....
Why don’t people realize that by spouting these “Black people” or “White People” statistics, they are keeping the racism going? Can’t we all just be “people” ?
I see Spike Lee as one of the main contributors to this. His movies paint a “Every young black male has to be a militant thug to get any respect” picture ! It’ just not true.

I do have to argue with the “most black guys are with skanks that white men don’t want” comment. I work with several people who are in interracial relationships or marriages, and it seems that the female partners are all beautiful !!
We have one very strange (by that I mean unique) couple. The man is black, the lady is white, but their child is white. The child looks just like his Daddy, but he’s white. I’m sure I stared rudely when I saw him for the first time. I couldn’t help it.

Anyway, this is a bunch of bologna. Stop locking up black men because black women are lonely. GOOD LORD.....
I was single and looking for a very long time after my divorce. I’m an average looking woman. Trust me, Black guys aren’t the only “good men” that are in short supply. White guys my age were pretty slim pickins too !! I didn’t “settle for less”, “Lower my standards” or “start giving something extra”. I dated and did eventually find a good man. *WHEW*

No; we can't.


The old canard about "If you are not part of the solution; you are part of the problem" has been proven false.

MOST of the time, we are innocent bystanders to what is going on around us.
