    he's gay, you know what he is talking about. i don't think you're as bad as others on the board claim. i actually don't care, its not like you're yelling for segregation of gays, but i understand where he is coming from. anyway, i have pledged to not make these threads personal but i just broke it

    Ok. I know he is gay.
    I still don't see his point. Or yours.

    Am I to assume I am supposedly intolerant of gays?

    If that is the case I would like examples.

    I don't need to search
    I know what I say and find nothing intolerant toward gays.

    You or O. S. s interpretations are not responsibility.

    What if the gays were African American, would you care then?

    I still can't believe slavery was still happening in South Africa in the 1990's.
    They still have along way to come.

    A friend got called in to the principal's office to get a Hispanic PSAT achievement award. They asked him if he was Hispanic, but he was Brazilian, so they took it back.

    That sounds like the kind of thing that would only happen in the Valley, San Antonio, downtown Chicago, LA or NYC.

    No slavery, just extreme segregation and brutality.

    Kind of like what is happening now in SA to whites.. It all comes down to power and rule.

    answer to your first question is <strike>fairly</strike> obvious. concerning the second, i was curious as to whether all bigot cards played are equal considering how often the race card is played. if so, great and happy black history month.

    The cards are all equal, but we have to play all of ours because we have no closets to store them in (thanks FHA). Happy White Privilege Albeit In Large Part Due to Technological, Legal and Political Advances A Few Centuries Ahead of Everyone Else Millenium.

    pretty strong card to play not knowing who your playing against, which is why this was directed at rocket river. not surprised the least bit at how quickly the card was tossed out there, but thanks for the white privilege century anyhow. :)

    Wait ... whites in South Africa are now subject to "extreme segregation and brutality"? Is this official state rule?
