Does it matter if the LC kids have a black heritage?

Seems whats fair for one should be fair for all.

By small steps that seem to be tolerant we may become bigoted.

What do you mean by black heritage? And whatever that means, who said it matters?

Are you trying to prove a point or is this a CT? If it isn't a CT why are you posting it here?

Did you do that? I don't think so cause if you did you would see MaGZ's bs was moved as this should be.

You mean this thread took you 11 minutes to think up? And all you had to do was look before hitting reply and you wouldn't look foolish for making a totally nonsensical point.

Just what is your point?

I am nonsensical because I think before I hit reply?

I believe if you call me foolish again I will have to take it as a personal attack.

My point now is that since your decided to argue your nonpoint foolishness with me instead of dropping it AFTER a mod moved your thread for being in the wrong forum you should congratulate yourself for being the first member to go on m ignore list since MaGZ.

As far as I can see this thread has no topic now except my being taken to task for not updating often enough.

The title of the thread sets the appropriate topic, as far as my moderation is concerned.

What happened here had nothing to do with the topic.

The question is much broader.
