Thread Name: BS: My Prejudices
Subject: RE: BS: My Prejudices
Well, this is one thread I should stay away from but...

... hey, pre-judgement is part of all of our basic survival instincts... and that ain't all that bad...

Yeah, fir the most part the folks that I am most paranoid of are white Republicans but...

... over the last 7 years I have been ivolved with a lot of community projects with "white Republicans"???

I have commented here that I feel more comfortable with black folks and for the most part I do but...

... 'bout 15 years ago I was trying to find Johns Hopkins University Hospital in Baltimore and ended up on a street with my wife... It was summer anf there were hjundreds of bvlack folks, mostly kids, on that street and, yeah, I felt if I had gotten outta my car I probably would have ended up dead... So I was real happy to get outta that situation.... Yeah, I've worked inside the Richmond City jail as a teacher but that night, I was real happy to have gotten off that block without incident...

Is that pre-judgin'... Heck if I know but I was sho nuff happy to get ouuta that neighborhood...

Actually, I think that over the years, I have become less and less prejudial one one hand and more street wise on the other...

'Some folks is out to get you...

Ain't about pre-judgement...
