in another thread, the subject of race came up & how some people are so overly sensitive to the matter. i grew up in a town where, in the late 70's, during the miniseries ROOTS, blacks actually rioted at the public high school. my older blonde haired sister, who had a white car no less, was jumped. about 15 of them jumped on her gremlin screaching something or other about 'whitey'. Thank God my brother was a jock & the only white kid on the basketball team. he was also a brawler, so when one of the niggers said 'hey, that's white boy's sister', they relented & exited the top of her white vehicle. Another time, i had a lemonade/candy stand outside the house. two blacks came up, gulped down their lemonade, then informed me they weren't paying. well i was a little kid, what could i do? Right as the slobs strutted down the street, my sister drove down the street towards home. ha ha, i knew this would be good. i jumped up waving my arms at her. she knew something was up, & sped up. i shouted what theyd done, &

Poster Comment:

con'td... she did a 'dukes of hazard' 180. they ran like jackrabbits. funny as hell. she actually caught them, shouted at them & they apologized. being half hillbilly & half Italian, racial jokes & cultural humor was never 'verboten' . today it seems everyone is overly sensitive & paranoid of differences. My wife is Mexican but i don't have problem with people's varying views on race. God created all men,but to strike fear over discussion of the race issue is silly & oppressive. how were you brought up about race?

My experience as a kid went like this. My parents never uttered a racist comment that I can recall. I went to an all white Catholic grade school for 8 years where most of the kids were Irish Catholic. My dad and many of theirs were either City Cops or City Firemen ... and we were almost like family to each other. (My dad was a fireman). The firemen I knew were a bunch of good old guys that up until my generation usually brought their kids into the Department. Political correctness / Affirmative Action ended that generational thing.

I played sports for the P.A.L. Club (Police Athletic League), and I was on the swimming and diving team for Brookside Park, City of Indianapolis. The P.A.L. Club introduced me to blacks. Our team was all white but the teams we played were primarily black (and about 20 years older and 2 feet taller than us). We got smoked nearly every game. These guys would pull all kinds of shit, like pinching the runner in the pile after a tackle.

The exact opposite thing took place with the swimming and diving team. There was only one black team and they never won an event. However, they were good kids unlike the ones cheating at football and other sports using their younger brothers birth certificates.

My High School was the largest in the country at the time I attended. Arsenal Technical High School, Indpls, Ind. had 10,000 students and it was a 50/50 mix between whites and blacks. I graduated in 1968. Racial strife was prevalent and we had riots, and a couple of students were actually killed. We had race wars and fights pretty much daily. I remember we used to load up my buddy Mike's station wagon with bb gun toting teens and drive around to the side of the campus where the blacks usually entered. We'd drive real slow and open fire on the black kids and laugh our asses off while they opened up their umbrellas and used them for shields.

There were brawls most days during all of the lunch periods, 4th thru 7th periods, about 4 hours. There had been a large square fish pond that the school had knocked the corners out of because the kids were eating the goldfish. It became known as nigger square because the blacks hung out there during the lunch periods. We would take clubs to school and hide them behind the lunch room so that we could "clear the square" each period. The funny thing is I had a lot of black friends and it seemed like the riots took place in spite of our friendship. Those were different times.

For a couple of years I lived in a place called Brightwood. This place was occupied by low income blacks and whites ... niggers and white trash. Oddly enough, the blacks and whites got along really well here.

In the end, racial hatreds are fomented by those with agendas that need to keep people from uniting to prevent their agendas.

I have mostly white friends these days because I like my own kind of people and there aren't many minorities where I live. I explain my racial position like this. I prefer my own, but hold the door for any woman regardless of race and make every determination based upon actions not colors.

We (races) are different in many ways. So what ! The differences are what make us unique and trying to act like they don't exist is some type of psychological denial problem.

ALL people are equal in the eyes of God but have diverse characteristics and behaviors that cannot be denied despite all the bullshit on TV and in the movies.

Yeah, we had very similar upbringings. My dad was a fireman and the entire department were like family. (Reminds me that the word Kin comes from the word "KIND" as in the same kind.)

Our society would have us believe that we are bigots for having innate kinship with our own. I've soured on PC Crap ... but am always happy to see you smile !!!
