Crazy stuff.
Although I think Wright is nuts, and about 95% of what he says is garbage, I will say that as a black man, I do agree that it's hard for white Americans to put themselves in our shoes. Have any white members on this board been pulled over by a cop after dropping off their girlfriend at home after a date? I have. The cop pulled me over and asked me, "Why were you sitting in front of that house?" Yeah right, I was casing the joint so I can rob it later.
Although Wright's words are offensive, I don't see how it means that Obama must be a racist.
Darien, first thing, let me say thanks for acknowledging the post.
I had virtually the same experience.
One night, I was dropping my girlfriend off, right in front of her house.
A cop pulled up and ask what I was doing.
When I told him I was dropping her off, and she confirmed it.
He told me to drop her off and leave.
One other time, My dad and I were pulled over by a black state trooper, on the New Jersey Turnpike.
He said he saw us cross over the median and pull a u-turn. We didn't do any such thing.
My dad got a ticket.
Was he a racist cop? I don't know.
Are these experiences justification to start attending kkk meetings?
So, to get back on track.
It seems to be nothing more than a distraction tactic to talk about Lame Duck Bush, flag pins, lipstick, in this McCain thread.
Lets start using the same logic, and non-emotional reasoning, that we use when evaluating monster cables, or bose.
