[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Oh my. I was offended that my thread (with two pages of civil discussion last I checked) about woke parents was deleted. But censoring the K-word is beyond ridiculous. Never mind, let's go back to the multi-page threads spewing hatred against feds and 30+ pages of speculation about a private citizen's legal and marital issues.[/quote]

Your thread was one of the most ignorant things I’ve ever seen posted here. I am giving you credit for being ignorant rather than simply racist. [/quote]

I understand that it's because I identified myself as a black woman in that thread, and this forum has made it clear time and time again that the black POV is not welcome. But please, continue calling me ignorant. Not just ignorant, but one of the most ignorant things you've ever seen. I'll give you credit for just being selective about how you moderate your website, rather than simply being racist. Meanwhile, I'll focus my efforts on recommending sofas to people and try my best to ignore all the hatred that spews through this forum day in and day out that you think is a-okay.[/quote]

I actually never saw a post in which you identified yourself that way but now you have clarified exactly which poster you are and things make a lot more sense. Your suggestion that any white children raised in DC would only be exposed to black drug users and black gang members was so far from reality that I have trouble believe that you know anything about DC. For the record, my sons were born in and have lived their entire lives in DC. From birth they were exposed to the Harvard-educated black woman that lives on one side of us and the Emmy-winning television producer -- also a black woman -- who lives on the other side. Both have grown up around black people of all socio-economic levels and understand better than you, apparently, that the black community is not monolithic and that the popular negative stereotypes are far from accurate. I am really sorry that you have such a low opinion of our own race. You are missing so much.
