[QUOTE="Dpjacket, post: 716145, member: 3498"] Thank you. And, look I suspect we’re all more grey/gray than black/white, or this vs that. We’re generally just not that absolute. But neither did I see anyone diminish another guy’s experience. If this is all about — to be honest I’m not sure at this point — to understand the application of words from an elderly, who was black by context of kg01, from 1988....I cannot rationale that to last week in Brunswick. Frankly, to me it seems an affront to what the grandmother certainly experienced in her past, especially in Jim Crow South. Who among us really understand that? (directly....not anecdotally) So, in Brunswick there is a young man dead, and two who are in custody from a visceral video. There will be a trial. There will be national coverage. There will be revelations. There will be politicians making statements. There will be partisanship. At the end of the day what will be the difference? For most all of us....nothing. Will we all carry on the relationships we have diverse as they may be? Of course. Do we accept reality of extremist or ignorant thinking? We have to .. it is what it is for now and thankfully it’s less the norm and than before. And understanding will evolve. Because life is grey — not white or black—but also somewhat in shambles.
