Officer Dibble please! Let's look at it since you wanna go there. Obviously the pickup I drive runs on gas. The 18 wheel I drive for work runs on diesel and I fuel up on it. While I hardly agree with the fuel prices over here I realize that to some degree I may have to use it. I try to drive as little as possible on my days off by riding my bike. Just because we use and pay for fuel comming from the OPEC nations don't mean we can't disagree with the policies on how we get it. I'd rather we use diplomatic channels, not war. By the way, in my state of Illinois some fueling stations have what we call "biodiesel" made from soybeans. The truck I drive don't run any different when I use it and it don't cost any more than regular diesel. So there! I personally try not to pay for gas as much as possible.

You make a good point. For us to get rid of racism you have to get rid of the racist thinking and in this day and age in 2007, at least here in the U.S. it's getting worse. You use a good analogy on sports. In the states basketball and football there are mostly black players yet in basketball there's slim to no black coaches whereas football it's changing slowly. And there are no black sports team owners. The person who is the victim of racism is the only one who can make that call because very simply they believe they've been done wrong and to really prove it there has to be a pattern of it.
