First you wanted me to be "objective". Now its "sensitive". The truth is no matter what I say, you will have a small issue with it because you are hung up on race. I treat you as my equal no matter what color you are because I believe that we are equal. Dont look for sympathy or go trying to make me feel guilty for something I have not done. If that is not good enough for you then that's too bad. Dont go asking me to be "sensitive" now because I am not. Like ClippedWing once said and I quote, "build a bridge and get over it". Larry |

I concur with Eddy. Who cares? I will be rotting in the ground somewhere and not in the position to care what the future generations, hundreds/thousands of years in the future look like. It is a discussion started by Gringo but others are taking it too far, I too have a beautiful son who is half dominican and I don't care what his skin/physical characteristics looks like, he is perfect in my eyes and that is what is important to me, my opinion. I do feel though that with more of a melting pot it will be easier on future generations Gringo

Joe, I am not going to look for it because I do not want to bother. I know you have inferred it. I am sure several more people will agree with me ( we are probably the only 2 assholes awake right now though). I will tell you this though, a week or so from now another stupid ******* thread about skin color will develop and you will be in the heart of it. Why? Maybe you can answer that when it happens. I know I wont be involved in it because I really dont give a ****. I should have never posted in this one. Good night.

I don't agree with him. As you see the references say "Opinion" and "Coorospondence". And I take it as such. Its just another grain in the sand. Threaten? not at all, remember he's dead. Oh, and I never use the term Politically inncorrect. Thats such and overused and media hyped term. |

There is no such thing as 'Race'. It was a term invented by a British scientist/advisor to Queen Elizabeth in the 1600's to justify the slave trade to the Pope over the objections of the Spanish and only perpetuated today by misguided so-called-self-named 'liberals' in the U.S.A. who claim that everyone is equal, and in the same breath ask what color/nationality are you because we have a 'program' to help you.
And if you don't understand that, may God bless you and keep you. Merry Christmas! Tom (aka XR) |

Why do you see everything through the filter of the color someone's skin? Dominicans are 1000x worse than Amercan's at this. Many think if they go to the beach and turn a shade darker (for which they already have handy a term for the exact shade that they have acquired) they have lost 10 IQ points. Blacks do this among themselves in the U.S. Julian Bond? He'd make a good president! Al Sharpton? Hell no he's too dark! (Plus a race baiter, my 2 cents). STOP referring to skin color for crying out loud! Tom (aka XR) |

... is that the same folks who whine about racial stereotyping, profiling, and the like, are the same ones who are the first to mention skin color when it benefits their arguments.
Race does not exist. There are ethnic differences. Nothing more. Skin color is a, for lack of a better term and with no pun intended, 'red' herring. Eventually we'll all be brown, and good for that, I guess. I enjoy the differences, and if I were around would be sad that evryone though or looked alike. But reading these posts it is all too obvious that some folks will never be happy until everyone is a homogenous whole because, just like differences in skin color, differences in opinion are not tolerated without someone baiting the subject as racist. That's ignorant. Too sad. Tom (aka XR) |

The following is very much DR related as I along with many others on this board have a Dominican mate and mixed race children...
Please consider the following proposition: When a race reproduces at or below the replacement rate, but in each generation a certain percent of its members, however few, mate with persons of other races and produce mixed race offspring, it is a mathamatical necessity that that race, with the passage of time, will be bred out of existense. The greater the persent of racially different persons in the population, the higher will be the probable incidence of inter-racial breeding. Given the fact that throughout the western world the white population reproduces at or below the replacement rate, and given the fact that the non-white population continues to grow as a percent of the western population- accompanied by an ever rising incedence of whites interbreeding with non-whites- the white race will likely suffer physical extinction over the next millennium... |

objective...always. Your problem is that you want to point fingers at people and interpret what they are saying in your own way when in reality, you cannot. If you had been reading some of these peoples posts for as long as I have, you would know they are not racists. CC is not a racist. XR is not a racist. TonyC is not a racist. Some poeple called me a racist in the beggining, but now they know that I am not. I am, as you say, objective. Do yourself a favor and stop spouting off at the mouth so much and get a better feel for the posters on here before you continue your well masked (well not that well masked) diatribe. There is usually a hidden message in many of the posts you read which you cannot see. Take a step back, take the chip off your shoulder, and drink in some more of what is being said on here.
A word to the wise is sufficient. Larry |

OK sancochojoe, I am tired of you misreading posts. I DID NOT SAY THAT YOU STARTED AN ARGUEMENT ABOUT RACE. I did say that you like to GET INVOLVED in them though. You are hung up on something that means nothing to the vast majority of the people on here. Larry no you actually said....Sancochojoe, I notice you LOVE to "argue" .... I dont understand what you mean that I'm hung up. Please show me on this post that reflects that. Then I'll show you others post here you should address and question if they are hung up on it. You are right, it does not mean anything. So tell them to stop creating such post. I guess if I agree with some of the things people say, then I qualify as not being hung up about it. I promise to use that logic. ok. If it will make you feel better. |

Again, I've explain my defintion of a racist which none of you are.
Don't think I'm calling you a racist. I just dsagree with the premise some people make. If I had to define some of the posters, the worst I could say is "insensitive" on some of the post. I don't think thats a harmful word. But racist. Hardly Thats what a debate is, intepreting what people say and responding with a rebuttal or an agreement. You have interpreted what i've said in the past, as I have to repeat saying don't put word in my mouth. But you dont seem to to hear that. I'm game for agreeing with anything you say, but I need a justification to agree. Nothing more. If i'm pointing at fingers at in individual, I'm sorry, but If i make a general statement, don't take it personal if it does not apply to you. If your posting a topic that leads to a debate, why do you exptect everyone will agree. That just does not make since. It actually makes the thread quite boring. Or maybe thats what you want. I don't know. |

![]() Let me clarify, Larry I did not say I was sensitive. Far from it. I said if anything some of you guys are insensitive in the comments made about Dominicans, especially dominican men. Its as if its some competition between you guys and them. Its as if there is something to prove. As if your value out weight theirs because you grew up in a Rich county yet comparing your standing against someone born in a poor country. There is no competition. You guys will always have the upperhand no matter what poor country you go to. You will continue to have fun, drink your beer and have fun with the ladies. Thats fine. No sweat off my back. But the manner in which some of you guys make your point. Why waste the effort. Is it really worth it. That is what really spawns my interest in some topics. If you create a topic about race, sure, I will make my point. It does not consume me. I would not be where I am professionally, economically or statistically for that matter if I consume myself with it. But talking about it, is entertaining, enlightning and fun. I assumed it would bridge gaps, but here it does not seem likely. Most of you guys are drinking buddies and associate with each other on a regular basis, so I assume you will defend each other even when you disagree with each other. And when you say most people collectively feel this way, again, I would say most people you are referring are the drinking buddies. But hopefully we can bridge the gap in dicussions. I'm open to it. ![]() |

you are right, I probably will. Nothing is wrong about talking about race. I only get involved when I see negative comments are made about a race. I guess you have to hate me for that.
I don't know if you are being objective or subjective. I guess if you look at the people I respond to about race and their comments they make, ask yourself are you being objective or subjective with me and are you giving me a fair outlook of the situation. |

The extinction of the white race is inivetable....Think about it...just 30 years ago.....over 80% of California was non-hispanic white ....in only30 yrs.....less then 50% and that included substantial Iranian, Armenian, and Arab population that are counted as "white"-meaning that Euro-whites are probably even less.
