[Tom Earp]

OMG, first off, YES, I did read the whole article! I was born before most of you were and have been around a hell of a lot longer than anybody on this site.

The first Black that I met was in 1960, my first year of college. We became good friends. When I went to my second college I met a lot more Blacks and became friends with many of them. Color was never my thing, it was how people acted and how I was treated, period.

I went on the K C Ks. PD in 1969 during the height of the riots. Officers both Black AND WHITE were not going for any of this B S, they were worried about protecting the people of our city!

When I got a Liquor store, I was the first to hire a Black in Kansas and Mo.

And now, I sit here awed by your indignant righteousness over being PC! What Utopia did you grow up in? What part of life did you grow up in?

It seems in your world (Inclusive for all) you are above and beyond what real life really is!

I enjoy how you call me Racist when none of you have been around long enough to have lived it!

At this point, I should say something nasty, but, I will not! Oh, other than get over yourselves!

GOD, These People are doing your good work, just ask them!
