25. Because it was a nasty post that generalizes about "white people"
Thu Sep 24, 2015, 01:59 PM

as though that is some block of humans you have to "run away from."

Sorry you're so afraid of anyone in your life that you have to "run" when you see them.

You used the term "run away" again in your retort toward me. No, I don't run away from anyone.

What difference does it make if "white people" are a racial minority or not? Do you not know that many white people are poor and powerless??? Do you seriously believe that all white people have some fat pot of money and wonderful smooth, happy lives?

I simply pointed out that your post would be hidden if you had used any other descriptor. Hell, you'd be the first to alert, no doubt.

No idea why you're so angry here bud, but you can look elsewhere for a fight. I said what I said and I explained it.

You have a great day now.
