have you ever run across a racist site

by mistake. A few months ago I got this email about joining this site. It had all these pretty feminine colors, I checked out the topics and it seemed like such a sweet, kind, nice place to be.

Then I stop visiting it because the server was 2 slow, but anyway, then I started getting the Newsletter update.....and there would be topics like "Why do blacks pimp their cars."......"Why do black walk in the middle of the street"......."More coloreds looting"......

You know that's tempting, so I'd go and make a few racist statements back. Anyway, I've unsubscribed to that site's newsletter, and I would delete my membership if I could....

I don't have time to argue with racists over the internet, however, even though this is the net, be aware that sometimes u might get caught off guard and come across a racist site.

"As well you should not go." For this is the point: people with with positive or negative "like" mind-sets tend to gravitate and uphold one another. Negativity can only feed from itself, right? You are just one LESS person who does not entertain the thought of their, "tales of woe is me."

I run across them occasionally, just following links. But I get out as fast as I got in. It's the same way I treat porn sites that I stumble into. EEWWWWW!!! to both of them.

I have run across a couple but I don't linger there. They don't have anything to offer as far as I'm concerned.

the internet allows idiots to network and rant together.
