What is your problem? Listen to yourself: "Only the death of people like you would evolve the human race": Why do you have such hatred in your heart? Why do you wish my death? Why are you attacking me personally? Why don't you present facts that can counter what I have presented rather than showing the hatred in your heart in this manner? Shame on you, really. Despite the hatred you have shown towards me, I still wish you well.

You know you have changed your story many times now. First you said you harbor no hate in your heart, and that you only had "dark" humor, yet you continued defaming me. Then I ask you to submit facts countering my facts you said "I never disagreed with the data you posted. I'm just offended with the fact that you state that these black civil rights leaders are "race hustlers". But then later you call me "FUCKIN RACIST" and call that you agreed with "bullshit" and "rubbish. You lie a lot.

Racism must end!

"...But, that's what they do," It's common statements like that that keep us under the same scrutiny and continuous journey of being humanly violated in the means of racial profiling. Not trying to get at my brother but disregarding something serious as this as an insignificant issue that we should just brush off is definitely not the case. We must unlock the psychological chains of the oppressors and finally realize WE HAVE A CHOICE TO STAND UP FOR OUR RIGHTS, FUCK WHAT "THEY" DO!
