I agree that it is not about color, and I'd like to believe that sooner or later the masses will discover that, but I fear it simply won't ever happen. After all, blacks continue to be angry whenever they see the Confederate battle flag. Think about that for a moment: They are angry over a flag that they believe represents slavery, when in actuality if they wanted to be angry over a flag that flew over the institution of slavery, they should be angry at the U.S. flag which flew over slavery far longer than the Confederate battle flag's roughly 4 years of existence. I despise that hate groups like the KKK have taken my beloved Confederate battle flag and turned it into a symbol of intolerance, but I refuse to let them or blacks destroy the TRUE meaning of it for me. If they can get that angry and be that ridiculous over a FLAG, I do not see those same people ever coming to understand the importance of quality over color. They simply aren't willing to understand.
I'd LIKE to believe you, but...
