Hell, in Williamsburg, Virginia, where there are plenty of black people, the entrance to the city courthouse is dominated by a large black obelisk decorated with crossed Confederate battle flags and an inscription noting that it's a memorial to the CSA war dead. Put up, I imagine, by the very same folks who routinely tell black people to "just get over" the whole slavery thing. I can only imagine being black and walking past that with so much as a parking ticket to contest and wondering what my chances of attaing equal justice under the law might be.

I'm sure that once I cancel my account, or die, which is essentially the same thing, they will attempt to make a killing by printing my dick pictures on commemorative plates. I CANNOT ALLOW THAT TO STAND. This is why I don’t post pictures of my dick on my Facebook page.

Which is coming in May. Really, I'm waiting to see who a coward then... Racism, is now, an official, fairgame, political tool. Not just a state of mind!

I would try to talk to them about race, but I think something like that happened about 50 years ago and none of them have been willing to talk about race since. We do have lots of Native Americans (or Indians, as the local tribe puts it). If there is Native History Month, I'll try to talk to them, but it's hard. They seem to be carrying a grudge about that whole genocide thing. We have Mexicans, but their restaurant is among those businesses that just folded so they're moving to another town to work for a relative in their restaurant. (And with them goes the town's only soccer fans other than me). We have no Asians. The End. [re=246955]SayItWithWookies[/re]: My little town has a black family.
