Ferris Bueller: I cant answer for others...but let me share an experience I managed to live thru. try being in 5th grade in a 98% black school the day ML king was assasinated. as you can see from my picture...I'm not black. 2 monthes of living hell. I had friends who would tip me off as to where the high school kids where waiting to beat up the white kids, and I would take my younger brothers out of their classes early to try and sneak out another exit, and run like hell 7 blocks to our home. sometimes we made it...most of the time we didnt.
every time I hear a black person yell "racist" , I think about those days. its my opinion that only a racist would call another racist. the fact that that mentality is on their mind is proof it takes one to know one.
