166. Yes, dear, racism is offensive.
I can only assume the anger is directed toward "black people who don't take personal responsibility for their problems



That's a pretty big assumption to make. At his 900+ posts to your 12, you might want to look at past posts to discover this "Angry White Liberal" is not a racist.

Don't assume that because someone takes a differnt position on an issue they are necessarily against you. Instead of atacking someone, ask them what they meant by that. Most people here at DU will respond in kind. Tell them your life experiences and why you take the view that you have.

Quite honestly, I'd rather hear why at 12 posts you have been so angry. What did you see in Halle's statements? What feelings does it bring to your mind. Then,I'd be happy to tell you the same thing from my experiences.

The moderators do delete posts here at DU. I haven't cited you, but others might it you directly call them racists.

Here, have a beer and welcome to DU.:beer:
