Can't happen soon enough Elmer. Today when I went to the laundromat, there was a dude that I started talking to, but quit after only a couple of minutes.
He was trying to tell me that racism in America was ended because of Trump, and that he couldn't possibly be racist because he has a whole bunch of black friends.
You know.................I spent 20 years in the Navy, and yeah, I had a few black friends as well, but that isn't the first thing I talk about when someone asks me how I feel about other races. I simply tell them that I joined the Navy at 18, and was taught that there is no black, white, red, yellow, brown or whatever. We were all in the Navy, and we were all varying shades of blue. Kept that attitude ever since, and that is the first thing I tell them about my views on race, not that I have a whole bunch of black friends.
