You're not on Marzy's e-mail list?

I like Marzy. He's an otherwise good man. But he's got one trait I cannot abide by. I find him to be racially prejudiced. Therefor he's the only person who is on my ignore list.

its always seemed like he was a bit miss understood when it comes to that.
I never got that but could see, without further inquiry, how some things he said may lean there. I think alot has to do with generational gaps in lingo.
I used to say awww man thats gay.
Meaning thats stupid.
Never ever thought of it being an insult to homosexuals.
Was quickly corrected here by a mod in my infancy years and haven't used it since on here or in real life.

I remember there was a Black NBA player he didn't like because of his African sounding name. When I challenged him on it he did not deny it.

Ya'll gotta understand... Racism and white supremacy isn't always this demonstrative, out in the open display.

Matter of fact, it's almost always covert not overt.

Sometimes it's making excuses to justify police killings (why didn't he just comply).
It's black people being 6% of Oregon's population but being 52% of the traffic stops.
It's this craziness going on at the school board meetings.

It doesn't have to be a lynching...

I was naive about the traffic stops until one day I asked a close Black friend about it and he confirmed it to be true. My eyes were opened that day;, that guy, like dviss, never lied about anything.
