186. If it was received with humor the Black man
Edited on Wed Dec-28-05 07:37 PM by goclark
would have said,"Let me take that rope and put it around your white sheet with KKK written on it and hang you from the tree in my back yard --- ha, ha, ha."

Since he did not respond with equal "humor," the Black man was NOT comfortable with the remarks.


In the work place, or not in the work place, the huge majority of us
(African Americans) do not like to "joke around" with words like, TREES and ROPES, DOGS and HOSES!!

A real friend does not find the need to make comments such as the one mentioned in the post.
