Word, Will.
Squeeb, I get angry pretty fast when people make really huge, sweeping generalizations without realizing how powerful their words really are. I mean, it almost seemed like your title assumed that only white people visit this forum, since your title (and OP) did not leave any room for "black people" to stand out as individuals. You say this...

... but what else was I to assume, given the words you used? What else can I go on, other than what you yourself put forth in words? You very clearly said "black people,"
without exception, until someone pointed it out to you a few posts later.
