Here's something scary for you:

Wow, great article. And people wonder why I shrudder every time I hear the • word
diversity. I guess I better get reprogrammed into compliance with liberal /
diversity thinking.

I think you all are hoping there are no Koreans on this forum. Because one
thing I do know is that people of a minority and those who care about them
really do shudder when one mentions lynching them!!!

I think what Larry was saying here is when Al Sharpton called lynching
on a Korean run grocery store in New York.
I don't think anyone here is advocating lynching anyone, except for the
types like Al Sharpton and perhaps James Carville.

I know about the unrest between Korean storeowners and African-Americans. What
I was trying to get at is that if one uses slang like "whitey" and states that
only whites can be racist (not true) then one does need some sensitvity
training on dealing with other cultures.
