It's all about Race

Really? Suppose some neighbor call 911 and says he/she saw something suspicious around my house.

The police come and I answer the door and they demand to know who I am, I will tell them. I will also tell them that they bloody well have 30 seconds to get off my land.

If on the otther hand they tell me the reason why they are here I will invite them in.

Demand? Not ask? Why would you be belligerant and demand they leave? Remember...they came to investigate a possible CRIME in progress. To protect you and your property. It's their job. Egad If your attitude is indeed your attitude in your above post...you might be considered interferring in the investigation process. Remember you did not call 911...someone else did and ALL calls are monitored. I could just hear a lawsuit being based on a 911 call NOT be properly investigated.
Just saying...

Methinks I'll pull the pin on a grenade and toss it out there by asking how Obama can be considered black when his mother was white.

I'm just askin'...

Well... as an artist I work with color daily. Although there are different hues to a color...it is what it is.
I just was hoping he being of mixed race...we could expect more understanding...not division...I seriously doubt he has helped in matters of race relations.

Oh yeah. He looks white to me now. Glad you brough clarity to that.

Indeed. You cannot unring a bell. He's painted himself in to a corner. Can't wait to hear the tapes..

That's the thing-Barry Soretoe ain't REALLY a black guy-Neither is Tiger Woods. Both of 'em "trade" on their "blackness" to get people to bow 'n' scrape, & all the inane white liberals to assuage their guilt...Charles is right- Barry is a slick pol from Duh Great City of Chicogguh, where corruption is a fine art...All this "black" business/horseshyte is a mere smokescreen to keep people from focusing on how he's drowning us in unrepayable debt, staggering tax increases, & foisting a western European style social democracy on us...And like any good slick'em 'n' dick'em politico, he doesn't want anything he does looked at too closely.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

Besides, don't look at Barry, he's a puppet. Look at the people who put him where he's at.
