OK<OK< you all have to understand that I am now living in a very safe part of the country.
Even when we were traveling about we never saw anything like what is going on today. I never felt threatened in any way around any segment of society.
Once the kids went out on their own 20 some on years ago, I have had limited contact with the youth and the changes in what is acceptable behavior in today's world.
I have been looking at this incident through the eyes of 3 generations ago, My generation, that of my children and their children. The limited contact with racists were with those a generation before me and I just put it down to ignorance.
When it comes to homophobia, I am at a loss at what to think, I was in my 30's when I actually met some one that was an open gay. The in the closet people I met were nice people, they did not march in drag in parades, fact is there were no gay parades then, they just lived quiet lives and I would never known they were gay had they not told me.
I get all so uneasy when there is a problem with differences in religion, color or even sex.
I guess I fell between the cracks in society, some how I was never taught to hate and fear, the schools at the time failed to teach me to consider myself better then others. My Church failed to teach me that my faith was the only valid Christion faith, they failed to teach me that JOOOOOs , Catholics and Methodists were evil.
I guess I was just too stupid to understand what they wished to teach me. Then to cap it all out I went against my society by teaching my 4 kiddies to think as I did---------------They in turn taught their own children and they will teach their children.
OH Crap, I have destroyed future generations from the satisfaction of feeling superior, from moving into a White only condominium complex. With luck, the kids will settle down and listen to their family, Church and friends. They will not have to know the joy of knowing those different from them. With luck they will grow up to never have the problems and fun life I and their parents had. They will fit in and go far in life as long as the learn to hate and fear those different from them.
Too much Future Shock for me. Sorry if I offend any of you, I am trying to get up to speed on things that are happening that are beyond anything I have ever seen in my life. What the Hell is happening to civilisation all over the earth.?? Science and technology are making huge strides progressing. Civilisation is regressing.
