I don't suppose that would be allowed these days. I want to know why the statistics look like this.

That is what I want to know.

People will tell me how they look at things and I will find another unanswerable question.


I will now go to Aldi's and get child two a Wendy's lunch and see what folks have to say while I was gone.
Your High School paper. Today the topic, not at all leading, is why is it evil to be white and how much do you think you should pay. My dad served two tours of combat duty in WWII. He clearly had post traumatic distress. When I was born we lived worse than people on welfare. Simple reality, I do not owe any body anything. White guilt, I have no reason to be or feel guilty. My great great great grandfather was a civil war general on the northern side. Our legal system you are not guilty of any crimes committed by your forefathers. Complex issues are truly simple if you do not tie them into a knot to support a point of view.
If you let what others think effect your opinion of yourself you give them a power that is or should be yours.
