This is great...folks posting as if they invented being empathetic. Ever read "BLACK LIKE ME" or any of the other books of that genre.
NOWAY...this was a thread intended to do what I suppose I have gotten sucked into....but teaching me or others about empathy it was not intended to do nor could it.
I have no heard much in the way of any racist talk except for those of you who feel entitled and have the need to "teach" all us rednecks how to think.
For the record, I grew up very poor and where I was the minority.....while I am not black, I understand more than you ever will about how rough the color of your skin can be.
The posts favoring acquittal that you take as racist is one of the main reason for the problems in this country on race...that you even had the nerve to think that !1
If you have as a first thought or any thought that someone who posted for Zimmerman acquittal is a racist, then it is
YOU who need to learn empathy along with a few other things.
