A320's post did not make clear that it was the avatar he found offensive. I read his post to indicate he did not like the fact that Papa L is a permanent resident (green card holder). It is obvious I misunderstood you, A320, and for that I apologize. Like fbh, I find stereotypes and caricatures highly offensive, and they have no place in the forums.

And neither do you.....you're a LAWYER, right? Are all the law posts closed or summin'?:cool:

Hotmama:

Speak not of things you wouldn't have a clue about...John Amos...was my neighbor EWR, 7th ave projects, and a great man. Just got in from EGCC. I've read post from vgb & fbh before and couldn't figure out if I was smoking crack...or what. Yeah, the avatar is missing now and I probably showed too much slip. You didn't see the avatar, so... no harm, no foul. Glad to know it wasn't crack. Not angry at Papa either. Just got a little upset when I had to explain to my son, why the guy had black shoe-polish on his face. Hotmamma... if I seem a little irate, it's because I've spent a lot of the past five years trying to justify the American psyche abroad and it ****ed me off to find my fellow countrymen not as offended by the racial insult, I've posted a few when the guys left controlled flight and attacked you gender instead of your point. It's kinda like listening to someone tell you that you're unpatriotic from a bar-stool, when you just finished 3 / 40hr runs from Iraq in the past month. I enjoy this forum. Keep post-in. No disrespect or ill-will to any of you.
