Bloody Brilliant!!!

I agree with you 100%!

All Americans need to learn how to accept criticism. Stop getting defensive if someone says something against you. Try and understand where that person is coming from and have an intelligent discussion on the facts (or lack thereof) in their argument.

Dan,

It has always been mybelief that critically thinking, progressive white people were the best people to enlighten their fellow white people on the isms and heir impact. THANK you for taking it on and educating them and many others along the way.

Got the link from Jay @ Ill Doctrine. I have to say it is so refreshing to hear people speaking the way I feel. Was beginning to think I was the only one....

I might choose to have more white friends if they were as aware and insightful as you. You need to put this on YouTube so it can be
shared with the rest of the sheeple.

Criminy, what an arrogant self righteous ass.

Any "knowledgable and sane" person can see this pretentous crap for what it is. Of course nobody except progressive thinkers could possibly grasp this amazing concept fo "white guilt". Thank you for educating the illiterate masses. Let me guess - I don't understand your point because...

Get over your own self!

Dan,

I agree with your White ass, but I don't trust you (pun intended).

You could just be some White guy playing the angle and then pulling a Black bounce. It worked well for Bill O'Reilly.

Snuff a White police officer in his face and you're down.
