There’s nothing more insulting and offensive to those of us that fight to open doors, that you walked through those doors and act like the folks we had to fight for to get you through them doors.

OK ? Bill Maher see the point here ? and again, I don't agree with her on Michael Vick. But we grew up in two different worlds, which the White people impose upon the Black people.

Trying to separate Jews from the idea that JEWS were targeted on their holy day at their house of worship, is a mistake and it is insulting and disappointing, it is also dangerous to downplay an attack against Jewish people as being something else at a time of rising anti-Jewish bigotry that we should all be paying attention to.
