i'm sorry, but that is how i feel. i hate reading all of that stuff, it was abhorrant. but i can't let that portion of him that is against my core beliefs make me hate him.


The portion of him?

Sorry dude. People cannot be divided into "portions." They are who they are. And if you don't have a problem with who they are, then say it loud and proud.

Just don't get upset the next time someone calls you on your hypocrisy when you try to go after people for using epithets or stereotypes that *you* find offensive.


i hate that he is a racist, i don't hate him.

and plese don't turn this into an argument, i came to apologize because i was wrong, and i did so.

i apologize, c, i was under incorrect beliefs.

i hated reading that, it was stomach churning, but racist or not he is still someone i hold as a friend.

but i apologize


wow.


well, i certainly hate that he is, and some of the posts on there turned my stomach, but i can't not be friends with someone because of what they believe, i have to just look past it. i have friends that are homophobes, but as long as they can look beyond my sexuality and see me as a person, and not make me miserable by saying homophobic things... then i look past it and see them as a person, not a homophobe.


This is not about "oooh I dont like black shoes or frilly clothes." This is a little bit more serious than that. Sorry, that doesn't fly.

Thank you for letting everyone know where you stand...or bend-over, or whatever.

You know what? I don't hate him. I just see him as a confused little racist with tons of money and still feelin incomplete. In other words his pills ain't workin and i'm not a doctor.


exactly.

I dont think anyone is saying hate him, but you must surely question him?

some respect? it's a texas thang huh?


no, it's a human thing.

He is not a racist. He is misunderstood. There are many orgers who love him on here. He only says things to get a rise out of people. And he has black friends. What more could you ask for?







where do we sign?
