the truth is that no matter how many laws or regulations or decrees TPTB make, you can not make people accept certain things....
eg...most people will dutifully accept the gay marriage stuff but you have to know that a vast majority dislike and even hate that stuff and when given a chance, they're going to explode....same with race relations....you can force people together but you can not make them like each other...
its better to acknowledge that not everyone is going to like or love you and leave it at that....
There was so much more clarity and honesty when we had freedom of speech and freedom of thought. Part of living in a free sociiety is being able to handle "being offended" and move on.
Interesting that someone such as Kareem who thrived in that lost world of freedom gets it and will speak out. The minority leaders today, for all of their macho and power-tripping, are thin-skinned cry babies in comparison. In the words of that great philosopher Don Henley: "get over it".
