Countdown to guilt police in 5-4-3..
(Liberal Pelican rule #657.1B-------- A Pelican may not speak fondly of prior times without due mention of American racism, sexism and the general oppression of the weak running rampant at the time.) You have been warned.

I used to be good to be white, now we are all running to the tanning booths, listening to hippy hoppy music, eating spicey food Mexican food and sushi and wearing our pants below our butts all in an attempt to hide our whiteness!

Thats the thing though, not one of those scenarios says anything like "1967: John harrased a minority and was applauded. 2007: John harassed a minority and was arrested." They merely mention things that were able to happen when the world wasn't such an overprotective, fuched up place.

The only "bad" thing is when people hate, discriminate, negate, dismiss, humiliate, etc against another BECAUSE of their color and I don't care what color the doer is, I've got a problem with all who go there.

She > faces 3 years in State Prison. Johnny undergoes 5 years of therapy >2007 Johnny's family is approached by a lawyer who says they're owed something because Johnny skinned his knee and he'll take the case for a 50/50 split plus expenses. They sue the School, the School Board, the County, and the State. The lawyer knows the most favorable jury pool in the state and gets the case moved to that county where they award Johnny’s family 27 million dollars. The family receives only 8 million after the lawyer takes his split and expenses. They blow the money inside 3 years and fail to even consider paying the taxes. The financial advisor they used who was a friend of the lawyer gives the lawyer a substantial kick back for the referral.
