Oct 2012

been writing about american racism all day. referring to thread/op about peace officer calling a black detainee the n-word. Oh some americans get upset if, as an individual I've experienced america's brand of apartheid for too many years, and sometimes I end up in a rant towards the ignorant and stupid people from all walks of life that perpetuate this poison. It'll never go away. Racism is as american as mom and apple pie.
