Seriously harry, have you ever thought of writing and publishing a book of fictional short stories? You sure write enough of it here. Hell man, if it sold well you could pay off all those debts and taxes!
What's in it for him? What's he got to gain by paying off his debts and
taxes?

Don't go there Mike.



Ya, my minority wife might not like it.

But it is OK if Jesse Jackson goes there.

"There is nothing more painful to me ... than to walk down the
street

and hear footsteps

and start thinking about robbery, then look around and see somebody

white and feel relieved."

Jesse Jackson

I understand politically correctness. It sucks.







We all read the news and it's a bad story, but

no one can predict how it might have turned out in different

circumstances. At this point all you can hope for is a good recovery

for the driver and proper justice for the perpetrators.



Agreed.

I am surprised Krause didn't comment on Jesse's racist remark.



I was wondering which of the racist morons here would pile on. You
fellas apparently are not aware that the quote you are attributing to
Jackson isn't one that describes *his* feelings, but one used to
describe how he thinks "white people" feel when they hear footsteps
behind them.

Right-wing media outlets have bandied about that quote for decades, and
out of context, of course.

Next?



If I understand what you are saying, He did say the line, (I can only
find that it was originally quoted in US News). I can only find one
reference that gives context to the quote, and that context was, to
paraphrase, yes I grew up in the same racist culture and I have those
feeling to. Is that the context, or is that not what you thought?

But I need to quote someone else,
"Young black males commit crime way out of proportion to their numbers.
Taking that into account when you’re out in the street is not
irrational, it’s street-smart. It’s not profiling, it’s probability."

Street smarts saves lives.

Here is an interesting site to get you thinking.

Poke around a bit.

All the cites quote back to a 20-year-old item that allegedly appeared
in the Chicago Sun-Times, and virtually all the cites are from
right-wing sites. I've never seen a cite that definitively proves
Jackson said any such thing.

Jackson said any such thing.

Yet just one post back you tried to definitively say that you knew what he meant when he said it. You're full of it, as usual.

You'd deny he said it even if you originally reported in the Kansas Star
that he *did*. The statement has been (and remains) directly quoted in
many different sources. What one *cannot* find anywhere is a report
that he never said it, nor what he meant by it. You claim never to
have seen a cite that definitively proves Jackson said any such thing,
yet you previously tried to explain away what he meant by it. If he
never said it, why do you need to explain it?

One of the problems in our society is that racism exists and it
originates from all sides and people, whites, blacks, brown, yellow,
whatever. Unfortunately a few (including Jesse Jackson and Al
Sharpton) have made the issues of racial relationships and conflicts a
means of making a very good living. That's what they do.

No person or entity in politics has had more success being racist than
the Republican Party since the mid-1960s. About all the GOP has these
days is racism and hatred and division.

That's absolutely true of course, but Harry is what he is and nothing
will change him.

After watching more than a few of these exchanges on rec.boats over
the years I am once again reminded of why you should never mud wrestle
with a pig. The pig gets irritated and everyone gets dirty.
