Picking on the handicapped
As I was laughing at a recent post from a 'new' member my very conservative wife looked at the post. She noted some of the reponses and asked me, 'don't you think thats kinda mean.'? Hey its in fun I replied. She gave me that look. Men know that look it means shut the fu$% up and listen. Here it goes, just because someone doesn't get something and is a bit slow. Like you can be(thats me folks) doesn't mean its okay to make fun of them. Nobody means any harm, I continued... She went back to that look. I wisely listened. What if people made fun every time you said some of that dumb sh$% you say. Subtle my wife's not. Well it really doesn't bother me, I said. Okay but it bothers me. Well don't read it I said a bit too loud. The wife look again. My voice lowers. ' Making fun of people that get it or can do better is one thing but when people are really slow or have limited educations its not funny and I think you shouldn't do it.' Okay I won't. Sometimes I wonder about her though. She's for capital punnishment doesn't believe in any welfare of any sort. Thinks any and all Black people who aren't working are just lazy and makes me pick up all my clothes. Jan 13 06 06:56 pm Link Tony Lawrence wrote: The nerve of some people!
