i've stopped reading all comments.
the thing with speaking your mind is this. once certain people find out what you are thinking, esp. if it's a distain for one thing or a love for another, you're life will start becoming an "example" for the opposite of what you like/dislike, you'll notice that if you stated you dislike gays (it's your right to like them or not to like them), you may ironically find your college roommate is gay, or the person you love, ect. If you don't really like a particular minorty culture/group Z or Y, that ironically, you are put in a situation that you have to deal with a person who is group Z or Y or that minority culture or whatever group you stated that you disliked.
What am I getting at? Don't talk too much about what you like or dislike, esp. groups or religion, or sexuality. If you are a parent who stated you dislike blacks, all of the sudden, your child will end up dating one, same with gay. If you are a parent who ever stated anything that can be repeated to the "wrong" person, it'll come back to bite you, meaning, your words weren't free, they came with a penalty, all while, we THINK it's free. And that analogy about the klan kid, again, wasn't to state that I want to join the klan, it was to state that I can care less if he dislikes my color, if he doesn't bother me, then I can respect him for leaving me alone, and what I mean by leaving me alone is NOT touching my life or controlling my life or hurting my income or job, etc. If he just talks, what do I care if he doesn't like blacks/etc, as long as he doesn't bother me. as much as rappers talk about their opinions on females, what do i care, unless someone is FORCING me to respect all black males, all awhile, they are enjoying a music played before the entire world to hear, about how black women and all women are whores, bitches, etc. And they may not like black females, why would I care, why do I care, their opinion isn't my life. Why would a black man care about what I think of black men (esp. if I don't hurt their life)? Unless he's not a man. Who's master? Who's slave?
