In summary,
1. Ladies have the right to see or not see whoever they choose.
2. Posting an NBA or NO AA policy is also a lady's right. She might not even be racially predjudiced, but it could be bad for business and make her seem that way.
3. What's convenient and desirable by hobbyists may not be desirable or good for a provider's business and image.
4. Threads like this do more harm than good when the OP starting the thread destroys it with his own rants and insults to those making comments AND gives further strength to the very reasons some providers have an NBA policy to begin with. If that's not bad enough, those providers who might be leaning towards giving black hobbyists a shot, are left to wonder how many are ready to explode like the OP at the slightest challenge to his ego.
5. Here again is the reason the collective, "not another NBA thread...." moan is heard across the board. Without exception they almost guarantee to devolve into ugly name calling and tirades of put downs and insults.
6. Last but not least, I think CJ might have found her soulmate. I would love a thread where only they post to each other and we all watch....

I'm not sure if you noticed in your reading, but we all started off with the same thoughts. It was the OPs ignorant rants afterwards that led to the 8, probably now 10, pages of nonsense. If you saw this a few days ago, you would be part of it too...

This is totally uncalled for. Its 2014, and why are we still making blackface ghomes?
