Am I the only one lost somewhere between disbelief and anger at America’s reaction to the Rev. Wright ‘situation’? Are we really surprised that a black man who came of age in the 1950s harbors some resentment and, yes. anger, at the often glacial pace of America’s implementation of promises of equality offered up over forty years ago? No one is really so stupid as to be truly shocked to learn that many blacks are not one hundred percent content with the status of race relations in the United States; and if they are not really surprised, they must be feigning shock for political purposes. Now there’s a surprise for you….

Since you are so easily shocked, you better sit down. As a 48 year old white male who has lived his entire life in urban America (NYC, Boston & LA) I can say with some confidence that I would be far more militant in my anger than Rev. Wright if I was black and living in America. In fact, I would probably hunt white people for sport; you (we) deserve no better.
