You’re a racist who does not understand the subtleties of racism one single iota.

I’ve seen it. I’ve LIVED it.

Grow the FUCK UP!

Open your EYES..!!

People of Color are dealing with the subtleties of being cared for second… of dealing with being told that if they don’t smile they aren’t seen… with crosses burning on their lawns for living in the wrong area… for still not being given equal opportunities to housing…

For sitting on a park bench and being scrutinized by the police… BECAUSE of the color of HER SKIN.

WHAT the FUCK??

For NEEDING a Federal program that allows them the opportunity to gain an education or a job.

For NEEDING a chance to find an Equal OPPORTUNITY… to be SEEN.

What in the ever living FUCK???

There is zero difference between me, with my lily white skin, freckles and red hair and ANY person with more melanin than me-except that they’ll look younger than me at ANY age!!!

We are ALL PEOPLE. We are ALL Human!

And we need to stop with the crap about the differences, and pay attention to what needs to be done. And if the pendulum needs to swing in the direction of more attention this way, and less attention that way? I’m all for it.

Let’s roll.

Oh… And if you’re ‘fraidy scared of what that might mean for you?

Grow a set.

I got one. I’ll never be called one. Not on my watch. Deal dude.

You’re a bigot and I got no more time for the likes of you.
