As the Black Actor Bill Cosby has said; "Until all the monorities stop bringing attention to themselves, and become just Americans, We will continue to have discrimination and problems" Quote/UnQuote.

This is so true. I have to believe that attention to it was needed at one time, but something happened and the pendulum swung way over to the other side, and now in my humble opinion, it could be out of balance.. Me, my family, my parents, all of us never knew there was discrimination, etc., because we treated everyone equal.. DanF

Sir; until you are bitten by a rattlesnake, and have 'no' Anti-Venom, and wish you could die, and have health problems for the rest of your life from the bites, then you can not appreciate what this Rattle Snake Round-Up accomplishes. And it is approved controlled and over-seen by The Texas Parks and Wildlife Game Wardens. Thanks for your Comment!!

I don't know why anyone would complain about Sweetwater of all places celebrating Black History Month.Let the black people out there have their month. I had the misfortune to live out there in that backwards, miserable part of Texas and those black people out there have it real tough. As a matter of fact, the way racism is still so strong and prevalent out there I always wondered why a black person in his/her right mind would live out there in the first place. Or anyone for that matter!

Daily Horoscope for November 28

Capricorn

The Moon completes her course through your fourth house of home and family, for better or for worse. Of course, your home is what you make it, and we often create a replica of our childhood experience. If you aren't happy with your living arrangements, you would do well to consider what influences from the past have led you to create something you are dissatisfied with.
