:0) If you didn't get the satire in that easily interpreted post .. my commenting on your posts may indeed be a problem.

There was no satire. There was irony. Something totally different.
Satire is a genre of literature, and sometimes graphic and performing arts, in which vices, follies, abuses, and shortcomings are held up to ridicule, ideally with the intent of shaming individuals, and society itself, into improvement.[1] Although satire is usually meant to be funny, its greater purpose is often constructive social criticism, using wit as a weapon.

Irony: Verbal, dramatic, and situational irony are often used for emphasis in the assertion of a truth. The ironic form of simile, used in sarcasm, and some forms of litotes emphasize one's meaning by the deliberate use of language which states the opposite of the truth — or drastically and obviously understates a factual connection.

Living in a "white" world??? No. But when is the last time you heard blacks chanting that? Nowadays they are chanting "economic power". But, then, again, you range from "dumber than dirt" to "absolutely clueless".

Economic power? Won't happen until y'all get off the democrat plantation. Welcome to your modern day slave masters. Chains are optional

wow, way to go off-topic.

I know I'm new, but it seems like there are some posters who try to turn every thread into a racist, homophobic, or anti-choice thread. Is it just my imagination? do they have nothing else to discuss?
 
An ad on TV representing a large cross section of American society.

No need for offence.

SUUM CIQUE.

You're an idiot. It's the Republicans that have all the massas, promising empty "glorias and hallelujahs" to those house negroes, willing to tout and tow the racist party line.
I'm not on a plantation. I'm retired, on a pension...that I worked for. And for what reason would anyone crossover to the Republican plantation? The Republican Party, which demonizes each and everyone that isn't white, wealthy, or connected. Fuck that shit. And you do not "fucking" love America. You're what's wrong with America. You sure as hell don't love it more than me. I love it so much, I'm willing to kick some butt to get it back on track, like it's doing under President Obama. A track it hasn't been on since LBJ.

Oh bs, plenty of white dudes do not like the idea of a white woman having sex with a black man. Our age and older. The younger generations, no that's changed, thankfully.

No. He terrorized his wife, in the past. And supposedly, she told him she was through with him...and she had started seeing Ron Goldman, and O.J., typical Neanderthal and egomaniac that he is, told her, if he can't have her, no one would have her...and he showed her. I'm black, and I'm sure O.J. "did it".

Well, they can't lynch you for it, but there are still people who believe you should marry your own kind. Interracial marriage has only been legal in the South since 1967.

When I was in school in the early '90's Sister Souljah came to our campus to speak. Close to 1,000 people were in attendance. She got a HUGE applause when she said 'no white boy has ever touched this body and no white boy ever will'. Of course right after she said that as if straight out of a movie (well we were in L.A.) a mixed race couple (black dude, white girl) walked into the auditorium and literally the place almost went silent with everyone staring at the couple. I will never forget that.

There are people of all races and religions who don't want their kids marrying someone from out of their group. I don't agree with that however if one of my future kids came home one day with someone who went to UCLA I would say I don't approve and they need to get rid of them so maybe I can't throw stones at anyone else.

I had a Chinese friend who couldn't date, there were no Chinese boys in my hometown, her parents sent her to live in California to find a husband.

That is crazy!

One of my best friends is a Chilean Jew. Not only did his parents want him to marry a Jew but they said he has to marry a Chilean Jew. To my knowledge there are like 100 of them in the world! WTF??? As a result he never told his parents he was dating anyone. He told me when he was 24 years old his mom asked him if he was gay because he had never brought a girl home or talked about a girl before. He ultimately ended up marrying a Jewish girl who had South American roots so his parents approved but still that was crazy.

(In college he dated this beautiful black girl, in fact if you remember the song from the mid '90's by Skilo 'I Wish (I was a little bit taller...)' she was the lead girl in the video and I remember telling me his parents would kill him if they found out.)

true 'dat!

high school friend ...she was Jewish ... dated non-Jewish boys. Her parents were NOT happy. She ended up marring a man who not only was NOT Jewish, he was easily 30 years older than her. By the time she married him, her parents were more worried she'd never marry than they were that she would marry a non-Jewish person so they ended up being ok with it. They're still together...

Well I'm a chemist and I have done similiar type forensic work and I'm telling you fact, not opinion, that they completely blew handling the forensic evidence in the OJ case and that due to that reasonable doubt existed. You are entitled to believe whatever you want but you are not entitled to your own facts.
