Okay - I feel better

lol. I'm over at Huffington Post. I saw a headline indicating that Obama opposes slavery reparations. Instead he wants to invest $ into inner city schools and jobs for the unemployed. Not that every black person is in unemployed, in the inner city and under-educated; however, if you give reparations to some folks...you will have more Impala's sitting on 23s (did I say that right?). You will have more people wearing designer clothes, but not paying rent.

Reparations is a dumb idea in my opinion. Namely because MOST of us have European blood flowing through our veins. So would my reparation check be phased out after my blood test reveals that I'm 74.4234% black? Side note: I have a friend that did a genealogy study and based on her weird computations...she realized that she's 60% white. lol. Giggle giggle giggle. Huh?

We've got to understand that reacting to the past is the way to move into the future.

Again...teach a man to fish...and he'll never go hungry.

I don't agree with reparations either. I think Obama has the right idea b/c I have spent some time in these public schools and all I can say is hot mess.
