i was serious that i do not think this "issue" is an issue at all.
even less is it a legitimate point of departure for a serious discussion about the issue of racism in the united states.

what there is to be said, dc has been saying to you repeatedly, matthew.
i also noted that i thought the editorial that smeth posted on the last page pretty much did away with this matter.

what i have put up here is a perfectly reasonable position to adopt relative to this non-issue. and i find the logic behind making it into an issue to be---um---problematic.

i have offered to debate these questions---but in another thread--because i really do find this a non-issue, discussing any further the deeper problems that it raises elevates it to a place it should not be, treats it as legitimate as a point of departure, when it is not.
this "issue" is nothing.
so there we are.
