I sincerely do not know if I am or if I am not, which some people have told me is functionally equivalent to being so. But regardless of race, I am very much pro equal rights and against special entitlements. I also understand, though, that it is not always black and white, such as with the question of affirmative action. I am not for it but I can see where good people would be. But the naïveté of the special snow-flake common worldview of "just don't break the law and work hard and things will go well for you" is not something I can support. NOT that I do not support (largely) following the law and working hard (I do) but the idea that this somehow fixes the issues we face is clearly very, very naïve. -- Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They cannot use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel somehow superior by attacking the messenger. They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again. <https://youtu.be/H4NW-Cqh308>
