FLAME ON!!!! Come off it, you ass. Perhaps my logic doesn't make the cut for arguments before the Supreme Court, but that doesn't take one fucking bit away from what I said- this is a racist society, one whose inherent racism has its roots way the hell back in the 16th century. Minimum wage laws? Are you suggesting that blacks should only be paid less than the current minimum wage??? Of course not, I just know you wouldn't say such a thing (at least not on this fuckin' Net). But, if you're not saying that, I don't see what else you could possibly be saying. You are for non-egalitarianism- you are for a meritocracy, right? That means that the advantages that have been established for you and all other white males must remain so, for indeed, in a non-egalitarian society, those who are on the bottom of the social totem must remain there- how the fuck else are they to even attempt to better themselves if they do not have equality of opportunity?? As far as the tribes of Africa fighting each other, so fucking what?? That DOES NOT FUCKING EXCUSE THE ATROCITIES OF THE RACIST REGIME OF SOUTH AFRICA!!!!!! So, you asshole, you've got to do better than that. There is no excuse. You are an aidor and abettor (if you don't like my spelling, fuck you on that too!) of this racist society, and your feeble attempt to make it seem like it's black America's own fault that it's in the shape it's in sucks. Bad. Oh, by the way, to define "society"-- aaah, shit, you mealy mouthed nit-picker- You know damned well I meant that in the dominant culture of the United States it is a disadvantage IN AND OF ITSELF to be a member of a minority ethnic group and that goes double for blacks. FLAME OFF.... Whew. I haven't been that pissed off at anyone in quite a while... and I hope I don't get that pissed off again- we black folk have trouble with high blood pressure anyway ( :-) ) -hey, wait a minnit- that ain't no laughin' matter! Aah, fergit it- I'll save it for later. Oh, and by the way, I offer my apologies to any and all who I have offended by my use of several not-so-nice words in the scorching, searing flame above.
