And what are you suggesting that match would be?

Yes,

I'm glad they had the guts to do it.

But it is 150 years too late.

I'd rather have my 40 acres and a mule.

Actually, 40 acres would be worth a lot today, depending on location. Mules, not so much.

You know, I could be wrong here, but I don't think that trying to insinuate to people that your race as a whole hates us all and is constantly on the verge of "exploding" and rioting and killing us all is really going to help with the whole peace, love, equality, and understanding thing.

I thought that was where you were going, I always like to be sure.

I think if it could be shown that Obama lost because of some political shenanigans, then such action might have justification.

I think if it happened after a free and fair election, then it would set civil rights back 50 years.

Your race does not practice peace, love, etc.
I don't speak for my whole race. I believe BO is doing a good job as president of the world.

Our slogan is

NO JUSTICE NO peace!

Ahhh, Jack that's where you are wrong!

No one is interested in the dogs, the bombs, the lynchings, and Civil Rights no more. MLK looks like a punk these days.

Talked to ANY black people lately.

Maybe a tad bit over the top there tracy.

I certainly don't speak for everyone, but mostly the members of my race that I associate with are fair minded decent upstanding law abiding Christ-following, people loving community-minded respectfull members of our society. They're not out lighting crosses in the yards of those they hate on the weekends.

Mmm. You have no clue what race I am. Frankly, I'm not all that sure what race I am. I'm part native, part white, part all sorts of stuff. Maybe I should start apologizing to myself.

No race practices peace, love, etc. We have to try as individuals.

I do find it interesting, though, that you're threatening us if Obama doesn't get elected, then saying that you're all about justice. Is telling people they'd better vote your way or they might be killed really justice? I kind of think no.

Only those in my family and church, who are fairly indifferent to politics.

And I'm talking to you.

All I am saying is Obama is either going to win by what he brings to the table or he isn't, and threatening to destroy the ballpark if he doesn't win isn't going to help him win - in fact, it might help him lose.

KKK and the slave owners claimed this also, so how can a person tell the difference?

This is all too funny... Though I think we have an answer... 40 acres and a mule... Let's write the checks and be done with it... Nothing of substance is desired, just cold hard cash... That's easy...

Ok, still on the wrong track, suppose he wins, then is shot by a white person?

Ask the senior member of the Democrats in the Senate... He certainly knows what a KKK member looks like... At least a former one...

Odds are greater a member of his own race would kill him....

Actually, what Tracy is referring to there is a legitimate promise to the former slaves of South Carolina, Georgia and Florida that was later reneged on by Andrew Johnson.
