Lets say I change the words which were still about my pledge to the good ole USA! In other words, I recited my own pledge of allegiance at a public event. Would you be upset?
No, I wouldn't be upset ... I'd celebrate a nation that allows you to do so ... and that you are not a robot .. but rather someone w/ a heartfelt desire for love of country to be creative enough and take the time to write your own pledge of allegiance ...
Maybe the geezer in the shorts above his knees w/ white tube socks and black patent loafers would be ?
The first post was a clip on TV......not talk radio. NO ONE has mentioned talk radio.
This is a forum and we are discussing what we saw on a clip from the news on TV.
I have no idea--DA mentioned it first. (As far as I know)

Nice number of white folks in that crowd. I'm sure they were just there for political reasons, though, or to get their faces on the tube. Surely not because they actually cared about race issues.
There were white abolitionists too ... and men who did this ....

Did you share this horrible photo just for shock value, or do you think I am uneducated?
This is the reason conversations with you can become so annoying, Daniel, because you tend to assume your readers are stupid or ignorant--or both.

Miss B ... I was educated enough to know that there were whites who marched side by side w/ those in the Civil Rights movement ....
yet you point out elements of an image (youtube video) but somehow your intelligence is insulted when I add to the perspective as to why they were marching on Washington ...
Dan the moral equivalence argument doesn't work. Nobody here thinks burning black folk is ok. Nobody here denies the black experience in America has been a great struggle.
