My use of the word, "you" was not intended to be personalized by you, PRAXEAS.
The sentence was more of a commentary on the posters of that video, and the intent of their message.
Instead of building my sentence around the word "you", I should have used the word "one", as in, "if one looked at these young Black males as "militants"...."
The burden of my communication is mine. I'll try to be more precise.

I see your concern, share your frustration.
What does this video have in common with our shared frustrations?

thank you :-)

He won the primary because a lot of Hillery supporter went to his side for some odd reason...that is before winning the primary.
I'm convinced nobody really "wins" an election in national politics themselves. They have lot's of help. Where you impressed with Dubya winning his first election?

It's ok. Communication like this can be tricky at times

Neoconservative isn't a pejorative. Are you a neocon?
Neoconservatism is a right-wing political philosophy that emerged in the United States from the rejection of the social liberalism, moral relativism, and New Left counterculture of the 1960s. In United States, they align themselves with most conservative values, such as free market, limited welfare, and traditional cultural values. Their key distinction is on international affairs; they prefer a proactive approach internationally that would protect the national interests.

If I was a neo con would I take that as a pejorative? Just why did you call anyone here a Neo Con? Based on being a little disturbed at this video??? How did you get NEO CON from that? See my point now?
This thread has nothing to do with such things and yet you called people here Neo Cons in this thread.
in fact you made our concern about this video a NEO CON over exaggeration. Now you are trying to back track...just like Aquila usually does

Alright, so when you and Slow Fe get tired of trading barbs, let me know what it is that is so concerning, so alarming about this video.

Good grief...this from the guy that said the solution is not political.
BTW if someone is not a NEO CON that does not make them a Liberal
