During a press conference later, O'Mara was asked if he had any advice for Zimmerman, and he answered, "Pay me."

Re: Greg's Ramblings LIV
Actually, Wilt forced the trade from Philly to L.A. in part because he was tired of the folks in Philly giving him shit for dating white women.Owlman wrote:now, now. Wilt was colorblind when it came to his 50,000 women

Bullshit. It was the folks in Harlem. Wilt lived up there during most of his Philly career. I think he drove to the 100 point game from Uptown.

In memory of Trayvon (with Greg's approval) - yes, I'm mad at white people all over again:

Meh, stop shooting each other first then we will talk.
Sure, I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is, I'm not. I honestly just feel that America is the best country and the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism.

Re: Greg's Ramblings LIV
I've avoided this 'teachable moment' with the white people in my life. Some people get it, some don't and never will. I'm not gonna try to make the latter understand. I don't have the space in my emotional bank account to write any checks on this one.Johnette's Daddy wrote:In memory of Trayvon (with Greg's approval) - yes, I'm mad at white people all over again:

The opposite? Maybe you don't understand what I am saying then.
Please expound on your point.

I've given up explaining to my african american brethren why white people are fatigued with all this.

OK. That's not what I was saying on my part, but I can understand that sentiment, too.

Re: Greg's Ramblings LIV
What did you expect? "Welcome, sonny"? "Make yourself at home"? "Marry my daughter"? You've got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know... morons.
Sure, I could have stayed in the past. I could have even been king. But in my own way, I am king.

Re: Greg's Ramblings LIV
We know why you're fatigued with all this. No one wants to hear a never-ending narrative of either their sins or the sins of their foreparents, especially while they're still enjoying the fruits of those sins.sardis wrote:I've given up explaining to my african american brethren why white people are fatigued with all this.
It's like the mob boss who has an associate killed, then has the parish priest encourage the associate's widow to find another parish to worship at so the mob boss won't have to see her when he comes to mass.

Re: Greg's Ramblings LIV
Want to get rid of Stand Your Ground, panthers? Don't put out a bounty on Zimmerman. Truly a very stupid and counterproductive thing to do. Actively, vocally and legally sell guns to 18 year old black youths without records and get them a carry permit.
