What the hells happening to Charles County?????

[aps45819]

What ever happened with that?

Rock, who is from Georgetown, said she and her 21-year-old daughter were the only blacks at the chain's Murrells Inlet restaurant in April. She said when she asked the manager about the delay she was told they could have a free meal.

"He never called over the waitresses and asked, 'Why did these people sit here for a half hour without service?' " she said. "The only thing he said was we could have a free meal and neither of us wanted to eat."

Why the hell were they there?

If we are all Americans it is all of our problem.

How about everyone taking responsibility for the making of their own problems instead of making excuses and passing the blame onto other people.

He took full advantage of what was given to him and he ran with it. No excuses, no special treatment. He was just a good kid who did what was right. He didn't let his skin color keep him from getting it all.

A great example

Another one is my son's best friend, a young black man who comes from good people but zero money, and won a partial scholarship to UVA, then got the rest of his college money by going ROTC. He is now a college graduate, serving his first year as a Navy officer, with a brilliant future ahead of him. 24 years old and just bought his own house.

He graduated from Great Mills and could have had a very different life right now, had he not made the choices he did.

Why? Because I don't like having to stop for a gaggle of rough looking kids blocking my home? Or because I don't like being ignored by blacks when I go into McDonalds, because I'm not black? Or any number of similiar examples. KMA with your white sheet comment. You act like blacks aren't racists.

when you have to overemphasize someones ethnic background to make a point (if there was even one being made) it makes you ignorant.

u aint slick trick!

Ok calm down. I'm not taking any of your accomplishments away from you. I respect what you did. If we are all Americans it is all of our problem.

Yes it is a problem for all Americans and the only reason why is because it's easier for a person to point a finger and say you're the problem vice looking into a mirror and saying I'm the problem.

Just like Iraq, can we get some type of time-line that black leaders will need to straighten this mess out, or do we sit back for several more decades / generations for more of the same. We all know the blacks don't want the whites telling them what to do...

I think there is one thing we all can agree on - we disagree!

You got that right but I have one questions that maybe all of us can answer... I am white do I consider myself an English American...NEGATIVE....AMERICAN!!!!!!!! Do all of you know what I mean?

When my Grandmother (age 6) and her family moved to America from Norway, she was picked on terribly because the little blond haired, blue eyed girl could not speak English.
