    I have an issue with your singling out "God's people". There are plenty that would not appreciate being labeled that way.

    Thanks again, Fred, for your thoughtful post about our local LEO who got ambushed and gunned down by a racist maniac and whose families are left without a spouse/father/son/brother.  Kind of thought that's what this thread was about when you posted.

    Maybe if some others have some type of political grievance, this ain't the place to spout it.  Perhaps start another thread. 

    Agreed, and well said. I wish I had read this earlier. Thanks for reminder.

    Affirmative Action has not been successful enough due to the racist mentality of the whites.

    Wow.  Are you trolling?  You cannot be serious.

    I have never called a forum member out before, but you are way out of line on these statements.

    :( You left out @Pepe Le Pew  said - so it makes it look like I said that, which it wasn't me.

    You said there needs to be priority employment and equality. 

    Those two don't go together. 


    You used an athletic example before, so I will use one also.  It's called leveling the playing field.  By enhanced priority employment, blacks will reach parity with whites and Asians.
    Not sure what your doing this weekend, but I'm building an Idiot from scratch and it would be a huge help if you could stop by and model for it.

    aaah.  which would explain why a longtime otherwise 'lurker' (pepe lepew's last involvement here was 2014 ) suddenly weighs in at length re guns and Obama, and drags me into his diatribe.  keepin tabs on my 'likes' is pretty sad as a hobby.

    Hello folks,

    I have received emails from two friends of mine on the forum referencing this thread and one from Oct. 2014.  In the latter one, Pepe Le Pew stated he was Village Idiot, which is not the case.  I would have let that pass, except he said some things historically that are particularly distasteful to me and I don't want friends to think it was actually me.

    I have not participated in this forum for over a year, save one post in March when I was asked what heat source I prefer for stir frying.  Fact is, I have lost interest, for the most part, in BGE cooking and cooking in general.  I do use the Egg from time to time, but mostly to just burn a steak or two.  As it relates to food, I do like canning, organic gardening, and raising my chickens for eggs.

    Reviewing this thread was somewhat amusing to me because my political views are about as far away from Pepe's as possible (ask Mickey).  I am a Libertarian to the bone and an avid supporter of Gary Johnson for president.  But, I never get involved with political debates because they never change anybody's mind.

    I wish you all well, and I do lurk from time to time to see what you good people are up to.

    Cheers.

    I don't think the intent of the BLM movement was to suggest that only black lives matter.  Otherwise it would be OBLM.
