Oops!
I did not mean to cause such a debate over skin color.
The world would be very boring if we all looked alike ...
Let me point out that in my high-school, most of my friends were black.
In Mexico, I saw a Hispanic lady that I thought was the most beautiful girl on the planet, and I wanted to marry her right then & there.
I have a friend at church who is Albanian/Greek.
I could keep going on, but you get my point.
Racist, I am not.
Usually, when a white person is biast against blacks, he/she will use the "N" word to describe them in his/her anger.
I have never used that word, because I owe too much to my black friends to forget their friendship to me in that way.
The kid next door is a very troubled kid.
He has hit his mother, he plays terribly vulgar music sometimes, and once, Karen went over there and asked him to turn it down, because she could hear it in our house.
His mom suspects him of doing drugs, and getting into trouble with his friends.
I suspected him, because he has done it before, and nobody else has as much reason to.
Most of the robberies committed are from people who already know what they are after, and where it is at.
My terminology of the word black was only to draw an identification.
My neihbor (white) said that she saw a black man in my yard.
She has never before alarmed me of any such presence, so I believe her.
If the police were to come and investigate, they would look at all of the black families on the road that I live on as their first suspects, becasuse it is most likely this person was on foot, as I did not hear/see any cars nearby to get away in.
