No, you said that. If that's what you're saying. And if you aren't what are you saying?

Very few things can get under my skin deep enough to make me angry.

This is one of them.

No comment.

Prejudice knows no color lines or societal boundaries. History should be about facts, not interpretations. Defining expertise in a subject on the basis of skin color is descrimination no matter what the subject or color of the skin.

Being neither white nor black I have been the butt of both sides prejudice. I have to say the whites were less obvious and frequent about it than other peoples of differing colors. Even my "own people" did it as I happen to not show my heritage as much as they. Prejudice or racism is simply wrong.

IMO There is only ONE race on this planet, they just come in a variety of shapes and colors.

Its really not "IMO" Maverick, we're all humans. Just like all monkeys are monkeys, they just come in different types.

Is a shar-pei not a dog just like a boston terrier?

In any event, ignorance and stupidity are evidently human nature... I don't think you could sufficiently describe our behavior in any other way.

Looks like the segregation era south had it right all along! What on earth is "our" culture coming to....

"cultures" aren't "race" or "DNA" Grun.

Well thank you Mr Webster!

But seriously what point are you trying to explain SW? None of what you said seems to be relevant in my post were I was pointing out the sad segragationist irony of this whole debacle...

funkedup · « **Reply #25 on:** July 30, 2003, 10:39:44 PM »

A revisionist version of American history which is designed to promote a racist political agenda.

Just to be sure we will learn correct with socialistic spirit.

And all thats was BS as u all know;)

Grun, regardless of Webster, I was pointing out that you had our in quotes referencing culture... while my culture is different from yours as your's is from Africans, as mine is from Asians.

So segregation really doesn't have anything to do with culture, as by definition, because culture is segregation, while race has everything to do with segregation because dividing up people by skin color is the definition of racism - which is naturally going on in this situation in Ohio.
