I'm still coming to terms with the realization that racism not only still exists in America, it seems to be thriving. And once again, I learn new and wretched stuff about my fellow (in)human beings.
Divide and conquer, folks. It's worked for centuries.

Be thankful you are no longer on FB. My newsfeed was pretty intense...

Maybe your F.B. newsfeed was intense because you have racist "friends." Very glad I'm done with it, though I'm still on Twitter. For now.
That article was a joke. Nice try, though.
This was especially classy...
".....in Florida where we like guns more than we like people." Sigh.
I really control my Facebook and Twitter. I have twelve followers on Twitter! This is not about popularity. It's to keep track of the doings of a few people, to keep up to date on the news, and to post the occasional remark or photo. That's it.
I hardly ever friend new people on Facebook and have hidden quite a number of "friends," so I don't have to read their posts if they get boring or monomaniacal.
These services are useful if you don't let them get out of hand.
After all, it's something for me, not for just anyone who happens to show up in my cyberspace.
Meanwhile... Trayvon/Racism?
