r u under 21?

ok now we're getting somewhere, Qoolskip speaks.
>I just feel that "we" as
>in all people need to
>come together and stop the
>fingering pointing. Yes this society
>is "fugged" up. But would
>it be any better if
>it was ran by blacks
>or asians or puerto ricans?
>NO.

where is your evidence? what do u base this statement on? history? have u ever looked at a time when the world was not "run" by whites?

>Would it be any
>better if the whole world
>was black. NO!

what do u base this is on? history? have u ever looked @ a time when your whole world was black? define "better."

>Why? Because
>people would still find a
>reason to hate each other.
>People are going to hate
>each other because of religious
>reasons, political reasons, because this
>person is fat or the
>other is skinny or she's
>light skin, or he has
>freckles.

what do u base this is on? history? who are these "people" u refer to? _all_ people? how did this hate manifest itself? show me when all ppl were _kiling_ ppl b/c of their freckles, size, religion, politics. break it down, every single ppl.

read: They Came Before Columbus, Dr. Ivan Van Sertima
watch/listen to: Malcolm X tapes

have different ppl ever been able to live peacefully among one another w/o fighting/killing. I've seen plenty a time when Christians and Muslims have been able to live peacefully, b4 alien intervention. but that's more recent. take me back and forward Qoolskip.

Its all "silly" and
>in my opinion a sign
>of ignorance.
>Am I guilty of some of
>this fingering pointing? Yes. But
>I want to change that.
>I used to get mad
>when I would see a
>black woman with a white
>guy. Why? Its silly. As
>long as they LOVE each
>other then why should it
>matter? No race is more
>dominant then the other.
>So lets stop the White Ppl
>this Black Ppl that syndrome
>and LOVE each other like
>GOD wants us to do.

i understand what u are saying Qoolskip. Universal Love is a wonderful thing and something for us all to strive to. But tell me, what would u tell a woman in an abusive relationship? if she leaves the man, if she tells other ppl "this is what this an has done" if she warns other ppl of this mans behaviour, is she wrong? does she "hate" him? should she not "point the finger @ him?" should she demand respect from him? or should she stay and show her "love?"

>Show some LOVE.

that's all i got 4 u man.
