[QUOTE="DDD, post: 35447, member: 35"] That would be ideal, Nancy. I have to admit, however, I don't think that any long term benefit will come from this. I watched part of an interview with a young leader in the black community who was asked, politely, how it made sense that a man would lose his career for using words that were common in todays song lyrics and conversations on television. The young man said, with the utmost sincerity, the difference is that our people were oppresssed for a very long time. I thought, HUH?? How does that bode for a change in society? We're suppose to flip sides and use different parameters for acceptability? I don't think so.DDD [/QUOTE]
