Again, nobody has explained to me how race based policies are not racist,. Want to give it a go?

Quote:Based on this post, it appears that you actually agreed with the use of the same policies/laws you denigrate as being racist, but you just simply believe they're no longer needed.

And THIS helps to illustrate my biggest frustration with debating with you and 93 - the assumption on your part that you think I said something I didn't.

I never agreed with the use of the race based laws. what i said is that they apparently had an effect in correcting some manifestations of historical racism. That does NOT mean they had my stamp of approval, despite what you and 93 want to say about what I think.

Huh? This is what you said:

"Half a century ago, it needed to have race brought into. Today, no. At some point the race based policies need to go, as they will just cause the same resentment from those discriminated against as did the race based polies of 50-500 years ago."

Huh, yourself. I guess you missed the fire/fire and chemo thing. Most likely on purpose. It is like talking religion with a baptist preacher to try to have an intellectual discussion with you. You have the faith, and that's the way it is, and God's laws are God's laws, so STFU and bow down to the Great PC. I blame myself for forgetting you are fanatic and closed minded about this stuff.

Come to think of it, I have actually met preachers and even missionaries who are more open to alternative interpretations than you are.
