We all have seen the racist comments of the other person and it is funny how that is of no concern to you. God forbid someone should have taken his ass to task for his B.S or Mayte for associating with him in the first place.

Laura, I have no problem with you, okay. So, don't take my comments personally. My remark has everything to do with MY unwanted interaction with one Aisha K. Staggers on LSA. She came at me like a CRAZED bully for the brief moment when I chose to post there, complete with cussing and name-calling. I soon felt like I needed a shower after that unforgettable experience. So, this has nothing to do with whatever racist comments she supposedly challenged. That's another matter entirely. Why do you insist on conflating?

Because you are judging this interview based on a bad personal experience which has nothing to do with this interview.

I challenge you to point out ONE thing I have written about this interview. To the contrary, my comment was in response to another orger's comment at Reply #9. And that would have been the end of my remarks, but for your continued attempts to police my thoughts. And, mind you, this is not the first time I have noticed interviews posted that this person has managed to snag. This time, I chose to comment, which, again, is my absolute right.

Eh, well Andre was great in that interview, not sure what to make of the interviewer though. She kind of gets in the way a lot...

Is this the same Aisha K. Staggers who is/was the resident nutcase on Lipstick Alley?

I agree with you completely re commentary on anyone's work posted here, but just didn't see why the character slur was necessary. Regardless of what went on elsewhere there's no need to drag it over here.



One man's slur is another's personal, first-hand experience.



We all have seen the racist comments of the other person and it is funny how that is of no concern to you. God forbid someone should have taken his ass to task for his B.S or Mayte for associating with him in the first place.




You mean FAKED RACIST COMMENTS I NEVER MADE....I got proof of fake chats created to make me look like a racist...so shut it down Laura. I was attacked for months before I even knew who this person was.
