Reply #39: So what? There are a lot of sentences in print everywhere......

Doesn't mean that I am going to be insensitive to others just because of that.

Your logic is very much like Hillary Clinton justifying her words by saying that she was quoting an article.

I do not feel like coming on this forum day after day being made to feel that my skin color is what is important about me, because it isn't. It is also not what should be important about Obama, no matter what "people say" and the fact that they are somewhere quoted doesn't give one a carte blanche to replicate it. One can always find quotes from dumbass people everywhere.

The fact that my White Mother and my Black Father conceived me should not in anyway be what makes me ineligible for any of what this country offers to its citizens, even if some people are of that view due to their inexplicable ignorances and prejudice....and so to have to read sentences that say exactly that about someone like me is quite offensive.

Because I don't come to this forum to be made feel "less than", just because "I am".

If I wrote a headline that offended you personally, based on something that you could not help, and you would point it out to me, I would apologize as my intent would not have been to offend anyone. It would not matter what my justifications were if you were reasonably offended.

It appears that you don't much care how I feel, and are more concerned with your own feelings.
