I don't have to celebrate MLK day because I'm black everyday. MLK day is for white folk to reflect and learn.

To 10:05 - That's how I speak to everyone...it's cultural...and as an 80 year old black woman from the south, I've earned the right to call someone child. And I live in America where freedom of speech still exists.

Sadly, the Iraqi children were collateral victims in a warzone.

The people in the Jewish grocery store were targeted for perceived religious reasons by terrorists.

And you have the nerve to kvetch about some cartoons???


Stop calling her child, dearie, sweetie, darling, or whatever. It is demeaning, and she is making thoughtful points, whether or not you agree with her. So she does not deserve it.

Ahh, so now you know it's not just about the cartoons? You're on the right track buddy.....I will tell you, when you tell me what the Iraqi children who died when Bush invaded Iraq did to engage the hostility.......


And, the owner of the Kosher deli was part of that? Really? Please explain. And, FWIW, I'm not your buddy. Convinced now that you are not a woman.


Also, a few months ago Muslima knew how to use ellipses correctly, but now she doesn't. Weird.

By the way, lack of premeditation doesn't mean you don't go to jail for life.


I apologize. My facetiousness was not apparent, and wasn't in good taste.
