In the alleged liberal party we have many racists, in the openly racist party, everybody (other than the non white members) is racist.

Every once in awhile that OPer pops up to point out what REALLY matters to them. BTW - I trashed it at title and poster showing up in latest this morning.

There is nothing i've ever read by the poster of that OP has to offer that I'm interested in. Not a single thing. Not even their thoughts on Trayvon Martin's murder.

Not an ally - click - trash.

from some black person in England (if I remember correctly) about how much they hated being black? And then when asked "why did you post this in here?" did the "who me? blink blink I did nothink!!" routine??

Next to his/her threads.

What purpose does it serve in my life?

Nothing - they add nothing.

Just because we are at the same site does not mean I 'HAVE' to play with you or be your 'friend'.

If that's the New Rule then I will leave. It's a Kindergarten idea and I'm way past that in life. Since I don't respect that online persona at all and can't relate to them on any level - I disregard them.

one of those "men's rights" types

no surprise the person is suddenly concerned about abuse of women when they can try to blame all black men for it.

And yes - I noted it. But I'm convinced persona is a woman. Or - at least wants that to be the case. I'm familiar with a MRA woman who tends to be shrill dueto the anger and defensive approach of her husband (stepmom court battle situation). Libel/Slander/Threat - words I've heard and read from her.

so blame black men and black culture for violence. but guns have nothing to do with violence in this country..............

Seriously her use of the words libel, threat, etc etc

it's obvious who the "angry persona' is in that thread - and it wasn't you.

How the hell do you 'libel' a f*cking screen name?!?! DU funny moment of the day.

Now you know and have seen first hand - "that" one.

They have an agenda, they have made posts like this in the past, they will make many more in the future.

I was thinking that some of the threads set up to praise certain individuals are like the call-out lists of who the chief offenders are.

The perfect intersection of racism and sexism. Had I known prior to posting in that thread, I simply would have ignored the willful ignorance, righteous buffoonery and the virtuous sub-literacy so proudly on display from the philistine demographic.

I live, I learn.
