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?
