its still confusing to read...not sure Im getting you exact point u want

I know what you meant…and triggered is right, and most always with racist accusations, when nobody is suggesting such a thing. All lives matter.

The assumption that this little white kid was innocent and obviously killed for no reason triggered me. The assumption triggered me. GGs history on this forum triggered me. I am very as a matter of fact and I am not soft in anyway shape or form. Please say exactly how and what you feel. I will do the same. I actually prefer real over fake. You obviously do not know me. I do not panic I simply state my truth. You can interpret that however you wish.

sorry....meant to say that GGs record shows no real pattern of "bias". he will say things that are not COMPLIMENTARY in the eyes of some, but that is what is referred to as "bitter truths".
his comments were often about shock or dismay at brutality and murder on the streets, but would not focus on race.

that is what i was trying to convey....sorry. at times, i need to get a post off quickly and muff it up.

I have always enjoyed your posts and like you as a person. I feel sad you dislike me in such a way, but accept it and will try and understand more. We are worlds apart, but I love all people and walks of life as I was brought up that way. My experiences haven't been great with the black community, but some of them are indeed great, so I try and keep an open mind. I do read everything you write and enjoy it. We don't have to agree on everything. I. have a lot of long term scars. I don't know if they can really heal because I get salt rubbed in them plenty riding my bike around the city.

I want the best for you and your family. Enjoy.

The mother speaks out about her son being shot. Hope we find out who did it. Poor little white boy. Sure looks like a little kid that was gunned down like it was nothing. Wish he never went to such an area of our city. Stay safe.

There is no "actually". Yes, it is tragic because he was so young. His race, which GG keeps mentioning, doesn't make it more tragic. By doing it, it gives the obvious impression that if he wasn't white, it would have been a little less tragic.


But I know you wouldn't have picked up on that, because you have the communication skills of a dollar store translation app.
