BUT throughout the course of history you cannot substitute `black` for `white`. Not in this context. (Maybe you can substitute Japanese or Chinese, but not a whole heck of a lot.)

History is chockfull of ruddy-cheeked white guys with dainty cloths and the best weapons money could buy, their henchmen, corporate itinerary, and a flag, running roughshod over all that you, EEE, and I survey. Show me where are the great “black” reigns of conquer ..perhaps since the Moors & `Black` Huns? Well, maybe Puff Daddy has conquered the world music industry, but I’m not sure that fits. Idi Amin? But that doesn’t really apply either. FOX is white racist jingoist propagandist cracker-biased me, me, my, my, now, now, now, cheat & twist & win at all costs to nation and humanity `so-called conservative` rightist pundit politics, I think.

…I think.

Not [my] white friends, not my white representation, ...a sort of Caucasian that makes me quake at times at my own whiteness. But I am white ..and red (and, red, therefore of East Asian descent if Bering Strait land bridge theories are correct). Mostly people are people. Unless they’re NOT. But I’m not sure what to make of your argument at this point, Don. Eric, if perhaps characteristically indignation expressive, doesn’t seem to me to be all that far off the mark here. If at all? One family man to another, I applaud the audacity & respect the outrage. Doesn’t make me any less Caucasian ..or any less Lenape-Tsalagi; Heinz57 melting pot lot still being run roughshod over by the banker, not the baker nor the candlestick maker).
