I did not notice any anti black convictions in the other member's post. Where did you?

Yes it is indeed sad. Perhaps I should say that I am offended that Betty Crocker is white.

When growing up I always called adults Mr.. Mrs. or Miss. Those close to our family but not related were called aunt or uncle. When I was born Uncle Ray brought be home from the hospital in his Model T. Uncle Ray was our neighbor and was approximately my grandfather's age. There was also was Aunt Tillie she worked with my mother. She was black and a very nice lady and indeed more intelligent than many other people that I have known.

I lived in Georgia for a time. I remember going to Aunt Fannie's Cabin, a restaurant in the Atlanta. The owners were black. I had the best fried chicken that I ever had there.

Folks need to relax and enjoy life. Few people care enough about you to bother to offend you.

Unlike many of you, I went to a inner city high school. Half of my classmates were black and about 30% of my teachers were black. I never had a bad black teacher. They had the highest standards. My high school was, at that time, one of the best in the nation. There are famous graduates both black and white.

This nonsense must stop.

Did you ever "wonder" how Mr. Clean made bald white guys "feel"?

Why is it nonsense to avoid racial stereotypes (and/or the perception of them)? This is simply acknowledging that we live in a pluralistic society, so let’s avoid disrespect — real or perceived, intentional or ignorantly innocent.

As native Southerners say here. With the great population migration to this region from the rust belt and Northeast, about half the population is from somewhere else (except in small towns and rural areas).

Many of those folks have very different manners and customs.

To our "friends" on the left, Stop trying so hard to be offended.

Who cares? Was his comment so enlightening?

dennis2146 Loc: Eastern Idaho

I care and I guarantee other members on the thread care too. Wouldn't you like to know who he was replying to? Was it probably you? His comment was sure a lot more enlightening than your comment.

Is it wrong to give a newer member some helpful advice in a pleasant manner? I don't think so. I do the same thing often because it helps us as a group.

Have a wonderful day my friend,

Dennis

Newer member? He joined almost a full year ago. Replying to me? I never said I was offended, but I did clarify whence so-called "fake news" originated. Of course his comment "enlightened" you more than mine.
