Nice opinion, but terribly silly.  I actually do two things.  1. I use my own experiences with blacks to counter any narrative trying to prove I'm a racist.  But I also talk about my gay friends, my Jewish friends, my Latino friends and my Norwegian friends, all of whom I love and respect equally.  2.  I refuse to let liberals on here to paint conservatives falsely as racists, bigots and homophobes.  Saying it is so doesn't make it so.  You, peterpi, do this very thing that I'm condemning and you are as wrong as anyone.
