18. "YES...audacity and arrogance."
In response to In response to 17


  

          

Once again, you yourself said:
>I have encountered only a few people in my
>life who celebrate Kwanzaa...but the ones who have, seemed to
>be making some sort of pretentious statement that was
>insincere.

So you made an interpretation about "those who celebrate Kwanzaa", based on a "few people" who IN YOUR OPINION, I repeat, IN YOUR OPINION seemed "pretentious" and "insincere", and then posted that comment on a board frequented by a bunch of Black people...and then wonder why I said your words reek of "audacity" and "arrogance"? Come on, man.
