Well how old is this guy anyway? 67? or 17?

To say something like he's never seen blacks oppressed and never saw hatred aimed towards blacks, I mean, the guy must have either lived a sheltered life or lived in a cave for most of his life.

I'm 61 y.o., and know how blacks, and other minorities were treated and talked down to in the 60's and 70's. This guy has probably never read a history book or done any research before making as broad a statement or statements that he did. I also know how women were treated at home and in workplaces. It's evident he knows nothing about gays either, to be making statements like those. I know of some gays who attend churches and consider themselves to be Christians. There must be several types of Christians in his little mind.

His ignorance is astounding.
