I grew up in the south and never have I heard of rubbing a black person’s head for luck...

"I grew up in the south and never have I heard of rubbing a black person’s head for luck..."

I remember a sermon preached to a bunch of Militia officers, in it he mentioned being stationed at the Naval Ammunition dept outside of Charleston in the early 60's, he mentioned seeing other Marines, rub the head of a black for luck. The sermon dealt with how we were and were not to treat our men in times of CallUp.

Simply because you've never heard of it does not mean it didn't happen. Yeah, it happened.

I also grew up in the South and the only way I knew about this was by reading it. I’ve never seen it or heard anyone speak of it.

I thought rubbing a bald persons head was for good luck.
Guess he was bald. And I'll bet it wasn't White people who did it.

A fellow Freeper said that it took the Fire bombing and total destruction
of Germany to make the Germans understand that their unwavering support
of Hitler brought about their end. I fear it will take more than the total destruction
of our currency and way of life to wake people up. The takers will remain the takers
because it's the only way of life they know. And when the money runs out I fear they
will not understand the implications of their votes for greed.

We are in for a serious awakening, and every month we come closer to Hell in America.
