you might be liberal on a lot of issues but you echo the typical resentful old white guy when you try to make a case that there's an equivalency between slavery, lynching, jim crow laws, and whatever slight injury you imagine yourself to have suffered as a result of minority empowerment.
i think we're a better country for what has been accomplished since the civil rights act of 1965. some disagree.
my point is that most of the latter are republicans.

it's funny that you are belittling my point. Slavery, lynching, jim crow laws are all gone. we're talking about now, not living in the past. and NOW, racism lives equally between everyone, going each way.
i completely agree we are better off because of the civil rights and things are more equal here than they ever have been in a lot of ways, but the original point is that racism is just as active among liberals as it is conservatives
