Go LL Cool J!!! Go Brad Paisley!!!

YES, YES, YES!!!

There is Hope for America...

Can you imagine the hatred that Racist feel for these two men... And yes I think they are both Great Americans that actually want to see this country move forward.

There are Black Racist and there are White Racist...

AND THEN there are the rest of US... Black and White American who are so tired of the stupidity and the blind racial hatred that is based on skin color...

It is very, very pleasing to me to think that LL Cool J would get it when I say: "I do not own slaves, I have never owned slaves. Slavery was NOT my fault. And just because I am white does not mean I OWE anyone anything because of slavery."

LL Cool J would get it...

Scal:

Besides posting comments on a message board what can individuals do to enhance relationships with different races? And when I say "What can individuals do?" I mean something tangible. Not some vague empty platitude like "We need to recognize." or "Eracism".

My great grandfather came to this country at the turn of the Twentieth century with his wife and 4 young children. Fifty years after slavery ended. He had no money, no job, and did not speak English. I would imagine most of the people you argue back and forth with have similar stories. I will guess most if not all of their ancestors didn't own slaves either.

Do you believe one race should pay retribution to another race?
Do I have any responsibility to pay retribution to anyone?

Why bother?

Some children need to be controlled, not reasoned with.

It sends a good message, but LL cool J always seemed like a class act to me.

So because they're rich and talented we shouldnt listen to them? Neither of them grew up in rich families, so just maybe they had to deal with what "common folk" see every day....

Scal, dont be blinded by your own racism and lack of common sense....
