When they could care less that tousands of people are exonerated each day after spending long prison terms, even being on death row, for crimes they didn't committ?

Many times people have sent mobs after people they believed to be guilty only to find they are innocent. Where is the apology to these people? Where is the public outcry?

Of course I'm talking about the word nappy. I've heard it before but never identified it as being racist. I thought it was similar to the word "ugly" in that it's not a positive thing but can be used to describe just about anyone, regardless of color. I had a discussion with a co-worker about this (black female), and she said it's highly racist and dates back to the days of slavery. Please help educate an ignorant white guy on the history of this word. Leave link if you have one. Thanks.

If it cannot be seen by the naked eye, nor has it any conscience, or visible signs of pain or other foundations to show cognitive response, then would you call that a life form that needs to be protected?
Why?

I was wondering (as my uncles a biker) what is it about leather that gives it such an awesome look to it? is it because it's been used in films like the matrix or is there another reason?

You always hear Christian conservatives or people who are anti-gay threaten that if gay people got the same civil rights and are allowed civil partnership and raise families that it will destroy the American family, religious values and society etc.
Of course the downfall must start somewhere on a small scale. I have two gay men living in my neighbourhood, they have kids who go to school with mine. So far, I do not see exactly HOW this has brought any detrimental effect on MY kids, on MY neighbourhood on MY family or on MY faith in God. When my child asks about his friend's family I simply say, " Daryl has two fathers becase some people fall in love with the same gender and decide to raise a family. It is very different and not everyone likes it but you must always treat Daryl AND his parents with respect." So far.... no problem.

So how exactly is this disaster going to happen?

To me, the ups and downs and conflicts and challenges are what make life worth living. I would hate perfection myself. How do you feel?

Why do people start to feel superior because of their skin color or the racial category they fit in. Instead of looking at their own individual life, family, skill etc

Whilst I admit that they may be dangerous people and that their crimes are abhorrent, and I am making no effort to defend them, why do the authorities feel it neccesary to provide the public with only their details?

Why not, for example, the arsonists, who are more capable of inflicting heavy casualties upon the populace?

I am by no means an expert on the subject so apologies if I have got details wrong- I am only wondering what people's view on this is and do not mean to cause offence, so I would like none in return- thanks!

Whilst I completely agree that the radio presenter was well out of line, I cannot understand why the people like the Rev. Sharpton(?) who are condemming him are not grandstanding over the lyrics of songs MTV , TV and Radio stations or the degredation of women on the accompanying videos.
Why is it ok for a Black American performer to refer to late teen girls as "Hohs" but not a White American?
Seemes to me we should all be up in arms about the way women and teens in general are portrayed in the media, not jumping down this man's throat as if her were the only one.
Can I have you opinions please?

These are fully capable individuals who don't deserve to be on disability. Some even have "under the table jobs" as well so they are double dipping. And what about the mom's who get "crazy checks" from their kids' so called disability. All it does is pay for their nails and hair to get done. i'm tired of working to pay for these people. Why is it so easy for them?
