re: Jesse Jacksons Opinion on Vick

No, Jackson is not a racist. He's an opportunist. I seriously doubt that Jesse Jackson hates white people.

And Rocker is just an ignorant assclown, for the record.

Anyway, I find it interesting that when I talk to other educated, middle class Black people under 50, about our opinions on Jackson and Sharpton are not what many of the posters here think. As I have stated on NUMEROUS occassions, the only people who care what Jackson and Sharpton say on race matters are white people who have issues with race. Those two are not Black leaders, and the only people who see them as such are whites.

But that's another topic altogether that we don't need to get on here.

The fact of the matter is that you and others here are trying, for whatever reason, to divert attention from the fact that the collusion claim is groundless.

He admitted years ago that he used to spit in white people's food when he was a fry cook, and he said that he doesn't regret it. I usually am hesitant to label a person racist, but I find JJ to be a racist.

He was a fry cook in the South during Segregated times. He grew up in South Carolina, where he and his family went through a lot of shite at the hands of white people. At that time, his only way of retaliating was that small rebellion.

You have to take those circumstances into account.

If you think that makes Jackson a racist, then every Black person who grew up or lived during segregation should be considered racist in your eyes.

Jesse Jacksons Opinion on Vick

I wish he would just keep his opinions to himself sometimes, and why does the media jump every time he opens his mouth

This, and I still can't figure out who annointed him or even worse Rev. Al spokesmen for blacks

Racial opportunist desperately trying to remain relevant is more accurate. By the way, the older he gets the more he sounds like his mouth is full of bubble gum.

Fair enough.

I said the same thing several posts ago, minus the bubble gum part.

True, but VOR said "racial opportunist" whereas you said "He's not a racist; he's an opportunist." Splitting hairs, yes, but VOR put it bluntly enough for me to understand the point better.
