Quite the contrary. The only time I respond to your jibberish is when I have nothing better to do. :rolleyes:

So they are "leaders" in your own mind....got it.
I guess maybe you should probably take back what you said about there being "other" Black leaders out there then. :rolleyes:
You put it out there and when I questioned you on it you folded. That's the bottom line. Deal with it.
Don't put words in my mouth. I said a true leader needs to step up. And obviously if there's room for someone to "step up", then the position must be vacant.

Nobody is dumping anything onto anyone. You step up to the mic and claim to be offended and claim to represent the "minority" and claim this and claim that whining and complaining all the way.....then it's on YOU because noone forced you to step up to the mic. If you can't handle it, then STFU. Simple.
WTF are you talking about?
Quote:
So if someone....Obama, Shirley girl, Al, Jesse, Tito, Michael....whomever steps up and speaks to a public audience on behalf of anyone else or as a representative of anyone else they are acting as a "leader". If they look like idiots doing it, that's on them. Don't come back now and say it's not fair to put it on their shoulders because it was THEY that stepped up to the mic. "They" have no problems soaking up the limelight when it's good, right? Then suck it up when people don't like what you say too.
Good for them.
Quote:
Yeah, you said you didn't want to name any "leaders", probably because you spoke too soon and didn't think anyone would call you on it. I got that answer, but I already knew that one. That took care of #1.
Answer to this above.

Again, why would you be angry? In Imus' situation you seem to agree that he got what he deserved, right? How is that different from my analogy? You work somewhere, say something some queer thinks is derrogatory yet YOU didn't think it was that big of a deal, he comes in to complain, and your work fires you. Is that getting what YOU deserve? You'd "get over it" because you have NO choice. You "move on" because you have NO choice. Neither one make it right. Neither one helps to put food on the table for YOUR family. All the while, the queer that complained goes about his merry way spreading ferry dust everywhere.
You wanna tell me again how THAT is fair???
I'm sure Imus is angry, just as I would be if I lost my job. Like I keep repeating, had it been me, I probably wouldn't have fired him over this. But you seem to inadvertently keep skipping over this statement.

And you remind me of a child that's spoken out of turn at the dinner table. When you get called out by your own words, now you back pedal. How typical. Just because I used your own bullets against you, don't be mad at me. Next time shoot better bullets. ;)
No, next time I won't argue with someone who does nothing but twists words with their opinionated babble.

See, if you would've said that in the beginning we would've gotten along just fine. :D
Good. You know they say admittance is the first step. :goodjob:

Truth and right aren't always in sync.
Never did I say it was right. I said it was the truth, and it is.

You merely confirmed exactly what I and many others here have said a gazillion times. People follow others blindly simply because of the color of their skin. That is moronic and stupid, period. You wanna justify it and wanna come up with excuses for it, be my guest. That exact attitude of sweeping things under the rug as if you can't do anything about it so you'll let it slide is the reason why racial relations in this country have never moved forward at the pace they should have. We are in the 21st Century. We are no longer living in the age of June Clever. We live in a completely different world today, yet we still have the black vs. white vs. everyone issue just like we did in the 50's. Not much has changed. THAT is what is a shame. The world has moved into the 21st Century, yet we still have obvious retarded dealings when it comes to racial relations. Why is that? Largely in part to do with that moo cow mentality of let's just follow the cow in front of us because it looks just like me........ :screwy:
Sitting here complaining about the state of this country's race relations isn't gonna change anything. It's like a rock, in a way. The rock isn't going to move unless you go and pick it up. This country isn't gonna change until there's an active movement to squash all the beef between the races.

Excuses are for people that want to justify their failures.
I don't use excuses, pal. You get out of life what you put into it.
Quote:
So if you think that because I don't agree with your "insight to reality" that means I'm not aware of what that reality is, you're sadly mistaken. I see the bullshit of reality everyday. Doesn't change the fact that its bullshit. The longer people sit there and coddle it and excuse it, the longer it will remain.
Just as I didn't know that about you, YOU DON'T KNOW ME. And if I offended you, I'm man enough to apologize. So stop trying to judge someone YOU DO NOT KNOW.
Quote:
Didn't I tell you in my previous post that this is exactly what racist people do often to justify they are NOT "racist"??? :screwy:
Maybe in your interpretation of the word, but I go by the one that's in the dictionary. Not that I really care what you think anyway.
