Conversation About Race: What Can White People Do?


I've heard conservatives call Don Lemon one smart cookie recently.

I wonder how this segment sits with 'em,...?

  1. Seems reasonable enough...I don't know about his 80 other things (he might be a real loon there), but the 5 he mentioned are true enough.

    Of course, while I consider Mr. Lemon to have made some points, I'd have to hear more out of him to determine whether he is a "smart cookie" or not...he may be an utter loon when it concerns other things (and nah, I don't really think much of Bill O'Reilly either -- sometimes he gets some things right, but other times he's a loon too).
    My own opinions of course, others may just love, love, love them.

    Kinda puts me in mind of that case they brought up as result of the Zimmerman case (even though the circumstances were a bit different, every case is unique)...where the black guy shot the white kid who charged him. Hey, from what I know of that case he shouldn't have been charged; kid was a punk ass criminal from the sounds of it and came after him. Fire away, and lesson to the wise: don't be trying to bum rush people, especially somebody with a gun; in fact, don't be trying to steal people's shit. If you're going to choose to be that, then fuck ya -- you got shot, too bad. Try to help kids not turn out that way, but if they insist, well...
    That part seemed to get lost in all the talk...and that essentially decent people get kinda lost in these discussions, and they are the truly innocent aggrieved here: have to put up with tensions in the neighborhood, have to put up with being stopped by the cops, have to put up with being x-rayed in airports...seems like nobody ever pays a price for this except for them...and they didn't do anything! (except for maybe being way too patient and long suffering with all of it)
