All of your accusations towards me are false.
I am not a racist.
I didn't vote for Obama the first time and I don't defend him because we are both black.
Your accusations are very offensive and I have asked you to not make these accusations against me, but you continue to do so.
Whether you take my telling you this serious or not, I forgive you and stand by my assertion that your accusations are false.
Maybe I should not post under my real name or maybe even simply stop posting over here as trying to encourage a rational view of "the other side" is not a rational thing to do on AFF.

JD - sometimes I think you take the other side just to start some conversation!
Canam can be somewhat abrasive and like all of us needs to be reminded that one day the elements will melt with fervent heat.
So, in that scope, what we argue about will have little meaning.

We should be able to disagree without getting personal. I know JD, he came and looked me up once and we had lunch. We disagree on here all the time but the JD I got to see live and in person is a humble Christian, sincere and honest. If JD is a racist, he really went against his bias and ate lunch w this white boy, bought my lunch and stopped by my church to take a look around the place.
He did say something about Black Power as he walked out the door with a clinched fist raised in the air, but I wasn't sure what that meant

JD reached out to me when I first go on the board and we are going to meet somewhere down the road. Gonna just break bread and have fellowship.
Thats not the look of a racist because I am fly for a white guy!

Never said you were a racist even though you implied i was and made snide remarks in past as to my interactions with blacks ,i personally dont care if you want to believe i am ,im not offended just a realist ,you never voted of him ? yet you suddenly just started taking up for him and only because you think im being unfair to a man who says he is black but is just as much white,and you are going to protest vote for him because of it,he has done nothing to deserve your support or any other support by blacks.not one thing jd not one has benefited this country unless its to show the world only the US would vote someone in whose ethnicity matches 13 percent of the country.WE ARE NOT BETTER OFF THAN WE WERE 4 YEARS AGO,bottom line jd is it aint personal with me, i just call spade when i see it, and if you want to read into that coloquialism if you will, go ahead,never wanted to be pc anyway so whatever, prove to me with your future posts that im wrong,tell me in an intelligent manner who you should vote for as a christian conservative (your words ) and a common sense, business financial sense,if you do that you cant possibly say you would vote for barack UNLESS something ie ( color protection is blinding that effort)its your call jd. you said this stuff not me.i dont deliberately try to offend sorry you think i do BUT you need to carefully reconsider your voting intentions that you have stated you have. otherwise i cant change my opinion ! prove me wrong !
Ps if you knew me personally you wouldnt have a problem nor would i ,i have only met a handful of people in my lifetime i couldnt get along with if i was going to hate blacks it would have started in the 5th grade when i had one who absolutley hated me and whites in general :0 she told the class one time she "had a dream"( no joke) that she was walking through her garden one night and a snake jumped out of the grass and bit her on her little finger AND " i know who that snake was " while she stared at me LOL, I have been called the tormenter before by my sister and others, so that plays into my posts also.

Nope. Memphis, TN.
Yeah JD is a good guy. Wrong sometimes on here, but certainly not a racist. I just wish he could be perfect like me.
