Expand I’m glad you posted this. You are so mad at the world that you can’t even contribute to a “memories” post without bringing up race. Are you mad at just the slave owners(only 10% owned slaves) or are you mad at your ancestors for selling them? LumRaiderFan, baddog and 5GallonBucket 1 2 Quote

As for your Dad, you weren’t even an itch in his pants in the ‘60’s. But, you’ve taken his seat at the back of the bus voluntarily. As for the Trail of Tears, read a little.

Those stories I told about looking back on the good times were with both my white & black friends. No matter the color - WE ALL SHARED THOSE GOOD TIMES! Sometimes, life is what you make of it. We were on the poorer side than most. I never knew it though. I said this about my Mom at her funeral. "She made EVERYTHING out of NOTHING". You can't tell me your Dad never laughed, never smiled, never enjoyed anything when he was young. YOU have chosen to spotlight the difficulties in his life instead of the shining points, though they may be few. Try reversing your approach, and I guarantee you'll be a better person for it.

baddog Posted April 29 Author Report Posted April 29 The hypocrisy with the antisemitism on campus and in general on the left is that they call Trump Hitler. I mean….. can it get any more ridiculous than that? Quote
