WTF is "racist" about pointing out that America has changed during my lifetime?
I resent your virtue-signaling ass. I never judged "Conservatives" here. You're either drunk right now, or stoned.
@mystery-ak @Mod1
You explain to me and the membership where the hell I deserve this shit?
@DCPatriotThe member said to you: "P.S. BTW... Your racist shot about Negros and where they could or could not drink decades.... five of them ago. Shows your own bigotry... about real Conservatives... as if another Scalia, Alito,Gorsusch... or heaven forbid a Thomas...no doubt an Uncle Thomas in your view."
You said you are in your 70s and remember when blacks couldn't be with whites in normal living activities. It was definitely not racist when you said that. I am a few years older than you are, I was born in Texas but my parents were from Arkansas, and they brought to Texas the way they were brought up.
My parents were nice to blacks, but I recall my mother saying, "Blacks are all right as long as they stay in their place." A black woman would come to our house on Mondays, which was wash day, and help my mother wash clothes. I remember a large iron container outside where water was heated and clothes were washed in that, rinsed in another big container and put through a wringer, then hung on a clothes line. Mother was nice to that black lady but she was considered to be less than a white.
That was also the days of hobos, who went to houses asking for food. My mother always gave them food no matter if they were white or black.
Here is a reason for that type behavior lasting so long: A person is born into a social structure and thinks that is the way to live. They don't know anything else and think that way of living is the way it is. I knew my mother thought blacks were less than white people, and it took my growing to be an adult before I saw what was happening was wrong.
Back in that day, my mother also hated Jews because, as she said, "They killed Christ". Now there were some "Jew" owned stores in the town we had to go to when we needed certain items. She knew which stores were owned by them and would not go in them. However, I came along and had very narrow feet - AAAA. The only store that carried shoes that narrow was run by Jews. My mother had to take me there to buy shoes that would fit me. That was an upscale store and I loved it. I never had a bad feeling about Jews as my mother did.
So, my parents were of a time when blacks and Jews were not equal to non-Jew whites. You and I are the generation that eventually stopped that behavior toward those people.
