So you're saying that you think Americans are better than other people from other countries?

Did you have anything to do with the fact that you were born in America? No.

Did you have anything to do with the fact that you were born black? No.

So why is it ok to be proud of one and dismissive of the other? Seems to me that you should treat them the same. There are things in life that you can control, those things you have a right to be proud of... then there are things you can't control, if you can be proud of any of them, then why not all of them?

It's a valid viewpoint, and it is also a stroke of genius marketing for a new business.

Well they have until June 11th to determine if they could face legal problems, until then they are getting a ton of free advertising.

Some of you talk like "I just want to be American", when it is convenient, then your posts indicate a different mindset with name calling, blame and degrading others. Gheeeez!


there no place here in cleveland that blacks offer a discount for the sole reason of being black.

thats the only issue with this day.

yes, quite a few, actually

Did you have anything to do with the fact that you were born in America? No.
you're confusing nationality with race, get it together.

once again, confusing nationality with race. imma need you to get it together, first.

Offer the discount to everyone that walks in the door and say it's for White Appreciation Day and that should end the problem.

It's fair, it's equal across the board, anyone that walks in can get the discount, White, Black or whatever.

But I'm sure someone will find something wrong with that also

Troll?

A guy stands up for his Race but of course on this site it happens to be the wrong Race, and the name calling flies!
I guess that serves as a fall back to Racists.

Why is it so bad to have an appreciation of the White Race?

40 there is absolutely no way, you want to have a civil conversation while hiding anonymously on the internet.

You want to say crazy things, get people riled up and try and stir the pot.

My question is for what?

What are you getting out of this?

I agree. If they give blacks the same discount for a week during black history month and gay people the discount during gay pride week, etc.. then I don't have a problem with this. So if you are a gay half black/half white dude, you are getting all kinds of discounts. tongue

If you have a gay week then I want a straight week... then of course yiou have to have the Bruce Jenner week, for transgenders.

Hindu, Buddhist, Agnostic, Jewish, Druid weeks, probably do Hindu and Jewish same week to keep the brisket and pork inventories level.

You on the other hand, seem to have an agenda... You are probably a nasty little teabagger. There is NO liberal here. Liberal leanings, yes.


yes, I have been to some Tea Party gatherings and guess what? There were Black people there. They didn't quit coming until weak ass liberals started screaming that the Tea Party is Racist.All they ( tea party ) talked about was Government living on what they take in instead for just printing more money, lower taxes, respect for Military, police and people in general. I did not hear a racist word or see a racist sign
So go ahead and call me a tea bagger and 40 a bumpkin because we both know you would not call us names like that to our face.

Got news for you white people love BBQ just as much as anyone else if not more and I take offense to that kind of BS statement. That's like saying black people are the only ones who love fried chicken and watermelon. I mean dayum I love me some fried chicken and watermelon. Excuse me while I go get some with my sugar free grape koolaid...

What discounts? lol I checked out their car insurance, and it was going to be 2.5 times what I currently pay. (I have a long term policy, with accident forgiveness and a rate lock, and they were not even close, and I would have lost those benefits) Their Medicare Advantage insurance plans stink. I have yet to find anything that I cannot get a better deal on through other companies than I would get through them.

It's called a joke man, get over yourself. its not like liking BBQ would be derogatory. Hell, good BBQ and fried chicken is part of African American culture. A damn good part of their culture.
