I am pretty close to one particular coach and you know to who I am referring. I can tell you that twice, in his coaching career, he was told by administrators not to bother applying because they "couldn't hire a white coach". Works both ways.

So if there are black kids playing at a school ( cant think of many where that isn't the case) the coach should be black? Before Carey Palmer, HJ also had Stan Hill who wound up in a Dallas School. Hj also has a black assistant principal. Should people be hired because of the color of their skin or because of their competence? Why wasn't Sutherland hired at Ozen?

Todd Sutherland once applied at Ozen for the head basketball job. Was he denied the job because he wasn't qualified?

I think Donald Trump should just deny that he ever made the statement. Look how well it works for Hillary regarding Benghazi and emails

I would be willing to be a dollar to a doughnut that this particular area is practicing "selective" enforcement of said violations.

Please show me where I can read about this and know that is precisely what he said rather than drawing a conclusion.

I believe that is called politics. Of course, I am sure you have forgotten what Mr. Obama said when his presidential candidacy opponent, Joe Biden said about him being articulate. No surprise that Mr. Obama played the standard "card" immediately.

Drawing conclusions on a single incident? Interesting

Dickie- No stereotyping by you, right? And just how was the grand scheme to "inject him" carried out? Since Parkinsons is a somewhat gradual disease, couldnt he have told on "the good ol folks of the US of A" before he could no longer speak?

Agree- thought that was pretty much universally accepted

Dickie- are you the one that stated it was not possible for a black person to be racist?

DV, I can understand what you are saying about being oppressed by people. Can you tell me why, if this oppression was so troubling, did he elect to represent ( essentially those same people) this country in the 1960 Olympics? The Islamic faction that he joined was one that preached separatism.

Sexist? No way. In the new AMERIKA, comrade, we do not distinguish between sexes. VIVA shared showers/bathrooms. True equality has arrived.

come on Nappy, let us hear what you think of this

Most transparent administration in history

Sure would be interesting to find out how many other citizens in that town have received citations for lack of window screens, peeling house paint, yard debris and some rotted and loose wood.

I noticed the name of this thread was Trumps mouth. Nappy, since we are exploring mouths, what do you think of Monica Lewinsky's?

Be careful LumRaiderFan and Baddog- you are letting your "white privilege" show!!!!!!!!

What would you think about just letting boys be boys and girls be girls? ( even though someone might be offended or get their feelings hurt- because I will bet you that the feelings of the girls who were born girls and remained girls have had their feelings hurt and are also offended)

I have no problem with inter racial marriage. I have no problem with gay marriage. And, if a person wants to change his or her sex, let them go ahead. I DO HAVE A PROBLEM with the "in your face attitude" of many of those who feel the need to shove it down the throats of those who dont believe in it or are unwilling to accept it. I am also saddened to think that there are actually people out there who believe that jeopardizing the life of a small child was justified in order to be more " considerate" of a gorilla. I often hear a complaint about Christians wearing their religion on their sleeves. I would happily try to discourage that from being done if I could get an equal effort from the progressives/left on the above issues.

Well Bullets, what say you?

Now I understand. If one does not view a word/phrase semantically as you do, they are wrong in their interpretation? I thought the left was the champion of tolerance and diversity?

Did he dodge the draft?

Is the world wide figure "designation" due to 1. sports accomplishments or 2. controversial actions. I can agree with you on 2 but definitely not on 1.

Some folks are very adroit at playing the race card ( in their minds, they think they are doing so subtly and can refute any accusations ) Dickie, I can still recall a time when I spoke of bad behavior/lack of motivation perpetuating itself through some families. In my comments, I stated that " people raise their young" in a certain manner. Your IMMEDIATE response made reference to my use of the word young and you implied that I was making an analogy to animals. So, in that case, it was ok for you to make a racial interpretation of my statement but one who is the recipient of the double wide inference cannot draw a similar conclusion?
