He is vehement; he wants this stuff to stop.
I have several close friends who feel the same way and like they say, it is ok to have B.E.T. and Soul Train but if it was W.E.T. and no soul on this train, it would be much differently I know.
I am with Catt. I don't understand a lot of things these days. If you are the most qualified for the job and happen to be white, oh well. We have schools. We have educational resources for individuals beyond high schools and ways to become a valuable asset in society. This is America for pet sake.
Christy, I am very sorry that things haven't worked out well for your sister. You and those who feel strongly about the issue should write a well-worded letter to the editor of the paper and get your point across. A crime is a crime and should be treated as such and race should not be a factor. It is shameful that this still goes on today, and I see many situations where the white person is treated poorly in a reverse racial situation in working with union issues, and my husband works in D.C. so he sees it everyday too. It has been a rude awakening for me to see life in the real world. But if your sister wasn't treated fairly by the legal system, the information needs to go out to the citizen who votes that person into their position. The citizen don't need that non sense in office.
Also, I call "love" crimes domestics, but then again, it can be considered a "love/hate" crime?
