My head isn't the one that smells of feces, Deacon.
Yep, but to lash out at somebody for simply making a joke indicates something a lot worse...
Grow up. You know damn well what you said and what you implied by that and directly who you were directing it towards.
Calling it a "joke" is a p*$$y cop out used by people like you. You made the comment, at least own it. You cannot flip this.
You got it! I am very sorry for making the generalization that I made. I meant it as a joke. I am sorry for any pain that it caused.
On the brighter side of things, I had 2 delivery men deliver some furniture to me earlier today, both of them African-American, and I gave them both a cold drink because I knew they were hot. Regardless of what generalization that some of you have made about people from Alabama, which is just as ignorant as making one about a race, I love my black neighbors and treat them as I would anybody else.
Thank you, Deac, you are a true gentleman.

haha, actually this didn't offend me one bit. You see...when you know who you are, you don't let words get to you.

Keep this up. That's the point, minus the $hit some of us still HAVE to deal with so often for outright appearances.
No need to apologize when you know you aren't sorry.
Don't try to sweep something under the rug and call it a joke when you know it's offensive and racist. It is. You know it is.
I love my black neighbors and treat them as I would anybody else.
Let me weigh in on this controversy. I am from A-L-A-B-A-M-A. Born and bred. I love watermelon, but hate spare ribs. I did not appreciate your insensitive joke, deaconbluez. Nor yours BR25. It is out of the abundance of the heart that the mouth speaks. You two have revealed what is really in your hearts. Thank you for that.
Now, about O.J. I am Black but I never for an instance believed in O.J.'s innocence. The evidence to the contrary was far too compelling. When the verdict was announced, everybody save two persons at my workplace cheered. I was one of those two who did not cheer. Why did I not cheer? Because there had been a devastating miscarriage of justice. My heart broke for the Goldman and Brown families.
You say you don't understand. Have you really seriously tried to do so? There is a Native American saying that would help all of us. It goes someting like this - Before you condemn a man, walk two moons in his moccasins. We can all learn from each other.

It's only words like "Mien kemph" are only words...word's hurt. I would like to apologise to the people of Alabama. I was shaking with rage at deaconbluez and others comments, and I wen't off with rage....i deleated these words twice before my anger got the better of me and I posted them. I realize that as Martin Luther King preached...the best form of resistance is peaceful resistance. I returned evil for evil but I did not mean what I said and would never say that of my own accord...and sorry deconbluez that was not acceptable and very out of line, it will not happen again. I have never been to Alabama and therefore cannot pass judgement on it's people.
