MLK day question: Are black people becoming too entitled in America?

Honest question - we are about the same age. I just cannot understand how, after 40 years, apparently it didn't stick that it is spelled "believe", not "beleive" . It's not even a typo, you spell it incorrectly every time.

Why???

 

There's no lie in beleive.

ONLY TRUF

 

yup.

but there are degrees.

 

degrees of your belief everyone is out to get you. Does it depend on how your day is going? Don't project your bias on me.

 

Honest question - how old were you when you first learned English? Where were you when you first learned English? I have wanted to ask you this for years.

 

*shrug*

never gave it that much thought

oh sorry - i didn't realize you were just being a dick.

 

tinytexxx, I go by my own personal experiences. You seem to go by whatever pops into your head that can be used in an attempt to demean someone you view as a "target." The shotgun approach. Throw crap on the wall and see if it sticks, or if it slides down to that growing, steaming pile at your feet. What is ironic is that you only make yourself look foolish. A sad testament to where you have devolved, despite your education at Rice. Being the better man, I won't blame the university for your failings, but do suggest that you don't wear your best shoes when posting here. They must look and smell god-awful by now.

 

Damn Decky.... U made me look at my shoes for a sec.... That was brutal...lmao

 

I was pointing out the fatal flaw in your logic. Not to you though, because I knew you could not possibly understand.

 

Well, anecdotal evidence is the weakest form, so I'm not surprised by your response.

And son, can you lay off the personal insults, for the benefit of the board? I'll be the bigger man and not respond with personal insults back (as usual).

 

You are so amusing, tinytexxx. You rarely post anything to back up your insults, and you continue insulting me. You've called me racist several times now and I asked you to back it up. What have you posted to do that? Zip, nada, nothing. So you are busy calling someone racist, have no evidence to back it up, and have the nerve to both insult me and belittle my post, calling it "anecdotal." Tell me, have you spent any time in Southern India? I have, although one doesn't need to go there to be know what I posted. Do a search. It'll give you practice that you need, badly.

 

I called out your racism very specifically on the last page of this thread. You casually stereotyped small town Alabama and claimed you were morally superior to them.

How does it feel to get owned?

 

Sooo, how is stereotyping people in Alabama racist?

 

You have presented no evidence whatsoever. I'm still waiting.

 

I was about to ask the same thing. Deckard might be a regionalist but that statement doesn't mean he is a racist.

 

No you are carrying a big chip on your shoulder from 5 years ago. Get over it. You and your buddy there need to move on.

 

Regionalist and world traveler. :-D-

 

After several centuries of inbreeding, who really knows.

 

As obnoxious as I've been in this thread, I think the exasperation here is understandable.
