This explains it all.

Wow' that's great. I didn't know about the black man, not until I just saw your video. Thanks for the contributions. And the black man is the only one to suffer in the world and no one else ever suffered. Wow! I did not know that. I need to know more about the black man. Tell me more about the black man please. I wonder what the white man, the chinese man, the Hindu man, the Russian man, the North and South American Indian man, the Aboriginie man, the Mongolian man, the Scandanavian man, the French man, the English man, the Pacific Island man, the Iraqi man, the Iranian man, the Greek man, the Japanese man (and so on and so on and so on) invented?

Why don't you make up your ethnic threads ?

I find it much, much better not to indulge into too much personal information about one's self. One, it's safer that way. Two, keeping people guessing is safer for them and three, I choose to be able to raise questions about views on race, rather than be linked to anyone race, because you and others can get a fresh perspective (without any kind of link), as well as bias, if I feel like it. Hey' it's only natural to have feelings, be able to go back and maybe say that I was wrong, without anyone telling me I'm wrong, right? It's really more for me, than you or anyone. I feel that we all come to these boards, as a way to deal with our inner selves and to 'in a way' ............grow. By being Mr. Mystery Man, I can say what I feel, what I view, with or without either a learned environment that I grew up in, or by using my own adult experience and lessons learned and come to my own' conclusions of what I think or feel about race. I think by now, I can safely assume you are a black man? Based on your strong views? I ride you sometimes, but I also keep you on your toes, or should we say 'guessing'. This all allows me to be who I am and ultamately, at the end of each day, I think I can come to the conclushion that I like people who are people, who have something to offer, without' using race to do it with. If you are a good man, if you believe in yourself and make yourself the best you can be, and present yourself the best you can be, then I respect you. I don't like racial aggressiveness, but I understand why it comes to be what it come out to be. I have to ballance out my biasness, along with my conscience and just good old fashioned good sense. I don't like lying, especially to myself (that's why I made the steroid thread). You see playa, I had a big problem with hate (a complicated kind of hatreds), where I come from and not just hate of certain people, but with what they may be associated with. Not necessarily color, but unfortunately, sometimes something has to stand for certain things, when there's nothing else and I think I speak for a lot of people. So you see, if I keep it to myself, I can have a conversation about such subjects, without taking it totally to color, and to another level. I almost gave up this board a couple of times, but I found by sticking around, certain things start to break down and other things start to come to the surface. It's sort of my psychotherapy and I've been better for it. I know it's a strange view, but this is what I learned growing up the way I did. I hope my definition is helpful. Always good to conspiracy with ya, even though it may be different subjects sometimes. Your kind of the shock' treatment kind of poster anyway. Giving fear a taste of it's own medicine? Well, if I ever say anything that sounds stupid, it's probably because I'm being or feeling stupid. It's amazing what fatigue can do to a person also. Even mental stress, like on these boards, fighting over who has the lovliest hair-doos, between Dolan, Isiah and Stephone (excluding your favorite, Jeff Van Dummy). Sorry. So I try to make up for it, by being honest to myself, at least. We're all' born good and innocent until we have our first corruptive teachings. I was way over my limit, and I'm making up for it as I go along. That's why I like team players. Like our Knicks. We are for the most part frustrated with these motha's because they don't act like a team. There's division and we are not comfortable with division, because we' become divided. I think my advice to you is, the world is made up of black and white, but also make time for those who are team players. Enough already. My race matters only to me. LOL to all.
