The race card

Wow, I am so tired of people playing the "race card" and now it seems worse now that Obama is in the White House. Okay, so I am on this Internet date with this really cute guy who happens to be black. We are doing the question and answer thing and out of no where he calls me a raciest because I like Nelson Mandela.

Are you kidding me???? ME? A raciest??? I was so pissed off! How does anyone get the idea of racism if I like Nelson Mandela. I told this guy that Nelson Mandela is an amazing person who has had a great impact on the world. Wow, anyone who knows me or has met me knows that I of all people am NOT a racist. And for those of you who do not know me, my ex-husband is black, a true African, my son was half black. Give me a break! I can understand if I said something that was negative about black people, like um... why do they like to always play the "race card".

IS THERE ANYONE NORMAL OUT THERE??????

I hate it when people make rash assumptions that are not only incorrect, but completely inappropriate. Yeah, I try to tell you all of the funny and weird things that happen on dates, but please, let this blog post bring some awareness to people of all colors and nations. Don't be so fast to judge a person when you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.

This guy would have done better if he talked about fishing but then he probably would have said that I was a spaciest because I don't like fishing. I would like to throw that guy in the lake though. It just irritates me so much!

UPDATE:
We talked a bit more through emails and apologized and things seem worked out. He called me at home. Everything was just a misundersatdning obviously. Anyway, we did have a phone date this evening. Nice voice, he seems a bit full of himself but dating is strange, you have to put your best forward first I guess it can make you be perseved as full of yourself. We talked on the phone date 1 1/2 hours. I am not sure what I think of him just yet but we did arrange a date. So I guess I will know more when I met him. Here comes the judge... LOL
