racism because I'm a Republican [which is why I was out of this group


I don't think Joyce did what you're saying she did. Wasn't it Bridget
who made the comment that ****ed you off?

Regarding the white supremacist, I've actually lost touch with him -
I'll have to try and look him up! We used to have lunch often, and
yes, we discussed race relations a lot, but no, it was never even
slightly strained or uncivil. I mean, that's how he defined himself -
he was Republican and a white supremacist. You can't avoid it because
he can hardly make a sentence without including those two very
important facts. Still, he was very bright and well read, so could
support his views very well.


You can't support those views well. You can only fool yourself and
others that you are supporting them very well.


I remember the first time we met, I introduced myself to him, and he
looked me up and down and said, "Even though you are not white, your
race's economic goals are similar to ours." Of course, I realized
right away that his thinking was very different from mine, so I picked
his brain every day over lunch after that. I'm always eager to learn
a new point-of-view. He told me that the Japanese have a good model
for a conservative single-race country, and that it would be a good
idea for the United States to adopt policies along those lines.


Holy crap, you *ARE* tolerant. I would have said to him, "But my race
is very violent," and smacked him upside the head with anything
available.

claiming to belong to the same species as Shakespeare it is simply disgraceful.

Victor Martinez had some very interesting things to
say about Tee hee...My Honey and Joe Kitty:

I would have turned around and never looked back. I refuse to socialize
with people who think their "race" is superior to others. I have zero
tolerance for bigotry of any kind.


Funny, I don't recall you saying anything about Joyce's accusing me of
racism because I'm a Republican [which is why I was out of this group
for several months. I do NOT enjoy being the victim of politically
correct bigotry in a supposed group of friends, especially when it's
considered socially acceptable to indulge in such knee-jerk
stereotyping].


I hope it's OK for me to butt in here, but I read the exchange, and
the guy in Takayuki's post WAS a pretty blatant racist, and admitted
it, proudly. He was a white supremacist. It was probably this that
Victor was responding to, not necessarily the Republican part.

GO back and read Takayuki's account of an exchange with this guy, and
his characterization of Japanese people, if you really want to read
some knee-jerk stereotyping.
