Lol! It's true. I guess precedent has been set that it's ok to camp out on someones private property as long as there is a political message. I would love to occupy Moore's property!

Really, you switched from the right to the left?

No, in fact I was a typical run of the mill liberal.

If somebody holds views coming from the left, isn't any opposing worldview considered to be "evil" right winger-ish?

Not a big issue, just admiring a greedy capitalists spoils!

It is absolutely beautiful! Editorials | Hypocrisy of Michael Moore's opulent home | The Detroit News Do you figure it was paid for by 1 million dollar tax credit he got from Michigan taxpayers on his last film? Or maybe it was the Halliburton stock he made a fortune from through his...

Ok, jillio. I admit it...you beat me down. You are pretty relentless and fun to debate! :lol: I think I better fill my tummy with something. See you around! Disagree with you soon...

Even though I'd love to, I never set out to change race relations or the world. Admirable, yes. But I'm pretty much some dope who's getting hungry for pancakes at the moment... Although even if I did set out to do that, don't forget....government is in the way. :lol:

Can you recommend which white owned college, with a white board of trustees, and a majority of white professors, white provost, mostly white board of certification, and probably a white dean is best equipped to tell me how to relate to my African American brother in law and my African American...

You could be right about me blaming Dems or Repubs. But you could be wrong, too.

I had the proper certification required by the State, as well as all mandatory training classes required by the city. Acknowledging diversity is important. Treating them as a race is insulting. I think somebody said "judge not by the color of their skin, but the content of their...

:lol: With all due respect, jillio, you sound very much like a white liberal who perhaps have not had much diversity in your personal life. Am I right? I am a certified counselor. I grew up in these neighborhoods and went to these schools. I don't want to break the news to you but...

Hi SneakerNet. Thanks for the welcome!

My problem is that I don't look at people through the prism of color enough? I was a music therapist for people who suffered from both mental issues and drug dependency issues.

I think that my upbringing is a little more valuable than sitting through a diversity class taught by a white male who lives in a place where the most ethnically diverse thing in his neighborhood is the Obama 08 sticker on his Prius. Lol. Which question jillio? I will happily answer any.

I disagree, Jiro. I was trying to help PEOPLE through my work, not races. Every human being is equal in my book. No one is better than another.

I had the best multi cultural training available! One that can't be learned in any university or with the highest degrees - I grew up in a multi cultural neighborhood, went to a multi cultural school, and my friends, family, neighbors and loved ones are multi cultural! A tad better than books, no?

DeafCaroline, nothing turns my stomach more than the people who pick on minorities, disabled, or religious minorities. They are the worst types of people and those are the crimes that make me the most angry. I hate all forms of racism, sexism, or homophobia. I just see problems with the...

I'm not sure I understand you. Hate crime laws make various ethnicity's, sexual orientations, and religions a protected class. For example: if an overweight child is mocked, terrorized and bullied the law see's that as less severe than doing the same to a person of a religious minority...

I very much agree with you, DeafCaroline. But I see the problem as being due to poverty. In other words poverty creates crime. And poverty prevents poor people from hiring lawyers so they're stuck with public defenders. I blame the never ending cycle of poverty. Hope that clears things up :lol:
