I do get to decide whether their claim is credible or not though That'd be the same thing as deciding whether you did or didn't. no it'd be calling him a drama queen, i just don't believe him I have to wonder how many black people telling you that this word is hurtful it would take before you start to consider that maybe it's hurtful. Like all of them? Because that's basically where we're at now. I don't presume to understand what it feels like personally, but at least when a bunch of other people relate their experiences to me and their testimony is consistent, I shut up and acknowledge their position. I think there's a certain level of narcissism required to do otherwise. Semantics. I'm not deciding if they are hurt or not, just tailoring my reaction to how credible I find that. Theres more worthy things to be hurt over and I'll support you on those. --- Grandad Beaches Freeman <cite>beechesfreeman posted [p:893405776] in Some 14 or...
