Well, Sir if you have been following a long, I have been giving my perspective on why Ali took the stance of not going to the Vietnam war. My point is that he did not want to fight for a country that historically has not been good to his race. Not confusing at all. Mr. Dog really has not provided any perspective.

It's really beneficial to start at the beginning of the thread and then follow it through. I think you will find all of my points are well stated. Have fun catching up, I've said my peace and now it's time to turn my attention to KC's beautiful women. Be well!

One of my Top 5 PERSONAL HEROES. ..
Col. E.L. of the US Army
A Veitnam Vet ( Nurse ).. African American Woman
One of the most Upstanding amazingly wonderful people I have EVER had the Honor & PRIVILEGE of knowing and who was a huge part of my life( Family) ..my whole life.. She passed away 4 years ago.
Think about her demographics...
Afrian American.. Woman.. Col...Vietnam War!!!
All I will say is she planted tons of "seeds" in my mind & to this day ..some of them are still sprouting!! LOL..
My Aunt & I were reminiscing during my spring break vacation about her laughing about the time that she was slipping me cards under the table during a game of canasta... So that I could win!!! all I really remember was I was very little and we were all just laughing and laughing and laughing... Like I said I have a ton of personal Heroes that none of you probably even know... point being the reason that they are Heroes... as they made a major effect on my perceptions of this world and who I am today... Which you do not have to approve of and I will be just perfectly wonderful with that... Everybody have a wonderful week, PLEASE be safe, and be nice to each other. Wheather you want to believe it or not we need each other in this industry

You probably even wrote a term paper about the civil rights movement, your a freakin expert I bow to your intellectual superiority. Originally Posted by dirty dog

I have gone back to review some of my old term papers. What a bunch of crap. But it was a learning process on how to write, and how to do research. Too bad that many of the classes in universities today do not require a term paper.

Almost every class required a term paper from us. The science department required every student, each semester, present at least one 45 minute lecture (15 minute afterward for faculty comments and discussion) for everyone in the department, students and faculty. I put in more preparation for these lectures than any test.

What I've learned from this thread is that some of you are older than dirt, and probably suffer from some sort of dementia.

Ok genius, yes I did right a dissertation about the civil rights movement at a place you probably don't know very much about, it's called a college. In addition, I happen to be black and my parents and grandparents like Jr. Lawrence lived through the civil rights movement and they have given me first hand accounts of how they were treated as black Americans.

Hopefully I've been able to give you a better understanding of my perspective. If not, oh well. Sorry I don't have any pictures for you as I'm sure you are having difficulty reading and comprehending this. Originally Posted by Agreen7

Since you brought up your race let me add that while you are proud to have accomplished a rare feat by completing college, its pretty common for us whiteys.

#2 - Derogatory racial remarks are simply unacceptable, period. Disrespect another's ethnic background and you will most certainly regret it.

With the identifier "Dirty Dog" I assumed you were a pretty unintelligent individual, so naturally I assumed you had never stepped foot on a college campus. Now let's examine your assumption, because I revealed I was black, you assumed I was the first person from my family to graduate from college? No Mr. Dirty, I was not the first in my family, and I won't be the last to earn a college degree. You're so typical.

In the words of an Eccie scholar "Suck another dick".

To be honest, if it weren't for a couple distracting absurd, then ridiculous (i.e. "Suck another dick"), and then straight up dumbshit comments about race and education level, the argument between JR and Agreen7 was interesting and respectful on two sensitive topics. I appreciate they shared some personal information to logically explain how they got to their opinions. A good honest conversation for the most part. I tend to think Agreen7 lays out a better argument but since I recognized the Public Enemy reference, I'm guessing we are of the same generation and that influences my views perhaps.

Agreen7, I don't think you need to compare your education to Dr. Dirty Dog. Even if he had an MIT post doc in astrophysics, he can only make insults to your actual arguments. He's possibly a dumbass... Maybe a racist Dumbass...Hell, maybe he is an MIT post doc. I don't know him, so who gives a fuck about my opinion. He's, however, definitely a jerk that ruined this interesting thread single handily...

Good post nas. I agree 100 percent. The thread was a very positive and interesting exchange of views.
