love for pu*sy is what joins us together

I do not pass judgement on people until I have a chance to interact with them. Skin color or ethnicity for me has never been a issue as to whether I would share a table or bar stool with someone. I will say though that if you walk around like a thug, with your pants around your knees, cannot speak in complete sentences and use words that are not found in any dictionary, I am going to look at you as an idiot and not want to be anywhere near the freak-show. People deserve to be judged by their character not by ethnicity, but unfortunately people also are generalized by others actions, those actions, are therefore responsible for the perceptions of a broad amount of people whom should not be labeled as bad people. I do belive though people choose to be stereotyped, simply by the way they dress, the way they act, and by the crowd they hang out with. You cannot help someone that does not want the help, or does not think they need a helping hand. It all comes from the core of a person, if they have a desire to be do the right thing and help others it will be reflected in their actions. If they choose to be a criminal and associate with the wrong crowd it will also be apparent. You can polish a turd all you want, but at the end of the day, it is still a piece of shit.

Spare me. I'm sure that goes for the "stereotypical" hillbillly, long haired, shaggy bearded, drawl speaking redneck as well, right?

I was raised a dumb redneck and to be a racist. I have worked with a few black people but never really had any interaction with them. After getting to know many black guys while mongering in Costa Rica, I admit I was wrong. These guys have been some of the most soft hearted and good people I have ever met. One guy I met at La Amistad (a retired police officer) told me of a failed relationship he had in Costa Rica and that the only concern he had was that the Tica was misrepresenting him and that her K*ds would grow up thinking black men were bad. I was so impressed with this guy.I absolutely stand corrected.
