“I always get the sense that black people (even ones who vote democrat and whatnot) think white liberals are a bunch of sissies and poseurs to be running around talking about social causes and injustice and all that stuff when it’s just an intellectual exercise for them, while it’s real when you’re black. So they actually come across as kind of conservative in the sense that they have sort of a “you work for it, you earn it” attitude. Does that make any sense at all??”
Only because your idea of what liberals has more to do with your persona, decidedly biased opinion and not the reality. In the same way I wouldn’t define all conservatives by Palin, Beck or Bachmann. Nor would I presume to speak for Black people, being, like you, white.

Lech- I’d watch out for that angry beaver. It would be a damn shame for you to get taken out before you had your defenses up.

Arkady, you shouldn’t make it so easy for us to out you.
Ugh I’ve been waiting for about 10 things to happen today (calls, documents to come in, etc) and they all keep not happening. It’s a day I expected to be crazy and it’s ended up being slow. Going to the gym I guess. By tempting fate like that I will cause all 10 things to happen at once.

You might want to learn how to spell euphemism first.
Sorry, lech 🙁
Maybe if you brought along cop with a water cannon, and some old “Whites only” signs we could try a bit for nostalgia’s sake. But really, like BSM says, it’s out of style.
Maybe we could riot over killing geese? Would that soothe you?
“Fine, if no one is going to get pissed at me I’m picking up my toys and going home.”
Yes, please do. We’re waiting for you. And we’re plenty pissed at you.
