Reactions to "A White Person Complains" on Facebook

 

Reactions to "A White Person Complains" on Facebook 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     H G === >  I am not sure where this person is coming from. Has he ever had a history of his person-hood being denied ? Has he or his ancestors ever been enslaved? Has he been given freedom that really was not "freedom" ? Has he or his ancestors ever suffered under injustice ? Has he or his ancestors ever been kneel(ed) on and deprived of breath and of life by "the law" ? If he complained that his life matters, has he been mocked and told facetiously, "all lives matter" ? ... and shame on Morgan Freeman for believing that playing "God" in movies makes him a fair and reasonable judge of humanity.

     H G ===>  If anything, that whole rant by P G is nothing but an affirmation for "white racism". The length of his essay only makes it clear that he is unburdening himself of long-held resentment (maybe even hate) of a group or groups he thinks of as the "other". They are encroaching on his most vile character, "racist"! He resents that he cannot think of himself as a member of a "superior race". But at the same time, he hypocritically denies ever having a racist bone in his body !

     B B ===>  H G ... first off Pat did not say this she copied and pasted from someone else and Pat is a beautiful lady who is def not racist.

     H G ===>  B B ... We don't know who said it or started it .. but copying and pasting anything without a personal input only leads by default to the perception that one supports or believes the matter oneself. If one is not the author, one should say so and also declare one's position if any. And I apologize for mentioning her name but my comments will still hold for the original (unknown) author. This is also a great lesson for me not to respond or comment to "copied & pasted" posts. Let us put it behind us, please.

     B B ===>  That is alright ... that is your opinion ... and yes put it behind us.
