Guess I should probably read to the end of this great debate,
but I have 2 put in my $.02;
Unless you have grown up Black in the United States, One
has no idea what it is like to experience the type of racism
that this country still has. Those of u who have judged Pele's
reaction 2 the verbal abuse flung at him have NO right to.
Unless u have lived a life of racial persecution, blatant or
subtle, U cannot say "how u would have reacted" to his situation.
Pele- I feel for u...growing up in the "Homicide Capital of the
United States" in 1993(E.Palo Alto,CA) I have seen the people we
pay for to "protect & serve" us Serve up nothing but abuse and
humiliation. This country still has a long ways 2 go. Hugs 2 u
and Prayers that it will in fact get better : )
Old Indian saying:
Let No Man judge another until He has walked
2 Moons in the others Moccassins
Oh By the Way..I'm a Yabbs Newbie....I'm TAZ..glad 2 meet y'all : )
PEACE OUT
Helene
