Interesting statement...

Uzbad and I are each just as "white" as the other. If there was attitude in our exchange, we are both guilty.

You know I am not a racist. I couldn't care less what someone's skin color is. What you mainly object to is my political and societal opinions. Strange since this is a political thread that you started. It was assumed you wanted a political discussion. If an attitude is calling "bullshit" on some of the things the guy posted, then I am guilty. His response sent it into further negative territory. He is a friend of yours and you don't know me. I can understand that.

The only "intolerance" I ever witness on XOC is via peoples opinions. I am by no means the only guilty party as far as this is concerned. I present valid arguments backed up by facts and many don't like what they hear. Many people don't like facts or reality. I am by no means a totally innocent party but calling me a racist is just wrong. I am called all sorts of names here and usually the worst names I sling are "lefty" or "liberal". I can't remember the last time you ever came to my defense while I was being barraged with insults...but that is OK. I don't mind. We are obviously on different ends of the political spectrum and view things differently. Nothing wrong with that. You have strong opinions yourself and never look at the other side on many issues but I would never call you "intolerant".

I thought "conservative" was the code word used to describe a perceived view of intolerance by those who feel as you do. Well...everyone has a level of intolerance on certain subjects. That's just the way it is. For a board operator you do have a lot of patience not only with me but with the whole crowd and this is to your credit. I am sure everyone appreciates it.

By the way.... I don't have a porch and I am actually slightly younger than you. I have been farting a lot the past couple of days though....
