    Some people can only see themselves as a victim; the possibility that they are victimizing someone else is unthinkable.

      @@nisaagunbiade3283 She basically didn't really say anything. All she said was if I'm forcing something on you, you forced something before I did so you're not exempt. So yes two wrongs don't make a right. Segregation and forcing ideals.

      Vince Abednego how is she forcing anything on anybody by simply being gay?

      @@nisaagunbiade3283 I don't agree with comparing segregation, and LGBT stuff. Not the same things.
      In America though, we don't have segregation anymore, and if someone discriminates based on race, they can face criminal charges for it. You can't blame people of today for what people of yesterday did, and forever hold it over their heads just because of the color of their skin. That would be racism all over again. That would be judging people by the color of their skin not the content of their character. Which is exactly what doc. King did not want or die for.
      My ancestors in Africa were rich at some point, owned, and sold slaves. I am not rich, and where I'm from, owning, and selling slaves would get me jail time. Same goes for white people.

      =comparing traumas shouldn't be done, but it's *funny* that Black men know what it's like to be oppressed, but also oppress others.
      The people of today are the people of yesterday, just older. The civil rights movement wasn't that long ago. Those racist bastards are still alive.
      i hope in the last four months, that you've done some reading because there is ignorance in your comment.
