I have to agree that when I commented after her first comment, that was one thing because she wasn't targeting her entire race, but then her second comment bothered me.
Yes, I'm Caucasian, but... I have 11 African American family members that were adopted into different parts of my family, and my twin brother and his wife, adopted a little girl at birth, as well.
It's one thing, to discuss some of the issues within your race, just like it's okay to discuss issues within certain careers (because there are ALWAYS going to be bad apples in the bunch).
When she made her second comment about not wanting certain people in her family to date other African Americans as a whole, that made my heart hurt, because she's basically saying that ALL African American men are created "equally" and they ARE NOT.
Even I WOULDN'T ever say that, and the two men who raped me were African American.
To me, those were just two guys who did two horrible things. It DOESN'T mean that they are ALL bad people now.
What if somebody was saying the same thing about her, or something like that? I don't think she would like it, if the shoe were on the other foot.
I feel that we ALL need to try to do our parts to end racism, and for somebody, in HER SITUATION especially, to say those things... I just don't get it....
Some people seem so shocked when I say these things, but it's the truth. Maybe not enough "white" people say them? I don't know. I just know how I was raised, and what she said in her second comment, wasn't okay.

I really hope, eventhough you're an evil person, that you NEVER have to endure what I did.
It's REALLY easy for people who haven't ever gone through it, to say "just take it up with the courts," (eventhough it happened over 20 years ago) or "call the police," or whatever...
But when it happens to you, the only thing you want, is for it to just go away. You don't want to have to talk about it again and tell people EXACTLY what happened.
You feel ashamed and like it was your fault, even when it wasn't (I was actually drugged).
I don't even understand people like you. People who make it their mission to just TRY to be as DISGUSTING and VILE as possible to others.
But then again, this IS the internet, and it seems to give people like you, some sort of power that they wouldn't otherwise have if they were in public...
