    Awesome and touching response. Thank you for your honesty in sharing such personal stories that are obviously painful in responding to such an inappropriate use of a term that was used freely by the Nazis. People seem to have forgotten the price that was paid for the freedoms that we have. They throw around accusations of racism around as casually as if they were cut off in traffic. Many people died for our freedom. Whether during the War for independence, Defeating Hitler or standing up for the basic right to drink water from a fountain or sit in the front of the bus. They belittle and sacrifices made by using such serious accusations for political gain.
    The casual use of racism accusations is going to lead to serious and legitimate cases of Racism being ignored or dismissed as yet another case of someone using it for Political Gain.
    May God bless and Keep You in all your endeavors. You will be in my prayers for sure!

      You all are full of it like a Christmas turkey! We see through your double entandra for the propagandists that you are. You speak of freedom liberty and opportunity but you reserve it for your selves and you cohorts alone. You say Obama Biden have not lived up to your expectations as your representatives have obstructed the Republics recovery as you made every effort to ber obstructionists to progress. You attempted to push the nation in to default and impune the full faith of our word. You call for cuts to social programs meant to serve our most at risk as you call for more war and demand the pentagons budget be sparted while you advocate for tax relief for the most wealthy as ypur chickenhawl leaders thump their chests as other mothers sons and daughters blood is spilled. You decry ACA as you avail yourselves to your offsprings ability to stay on your healthcare insurance as the lower class yearn for basic healthcare! You disgust me as I recall I ent to war for you as thre sacrifice I endured as the night mares visit me still knowing you wrap yourselves in the flag to hide you evil intentions! To hell with your lying damnable eyes!

            How about this then. When you manage to string together words into a comprehensible series, your thoughts convey ignorance that we don’t usually see in our comments section. It’s great entertainment – kind of like watching the monkeys at the zoo.

    What a powerful refutation of the craven words of a racist dirtbag.

    “Racist” is NOT the opposite of “Marxist,” the rantings of demorrhoids on MSNBC notwithstanding

    AWESOME. COURAGEOUS. WOW. Kira has dignity, which Toure is sorely lacking. The biggest thing Toure offers is reflected in that old saying:
    “The best place to study dignity is where it is missing.” (unknown).
