Stevie Wonder won't sing in any state with stand your ground laws

[Guest TankerHC]

I'll see your Engelbert Humperdinck & raise you Tom Jones, I just hope your not holding Bert Bacharach in your hand ...

 Tom Jones is badazz and can kick Humperdinks azz any day.

 

Jones is so badazz he can tell a strange woman is in love with him just by looking at her closed window.

 

I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window........I saw the flickering shadows of love on her blind.......

Good reads, thanks Leroy.

Unfortunately it brings up the ole' "those facts are racist, the system is racist, he's a racist, she's a racist, they are racist, everything is racist, open your mouth and disagree and you're a racist too!" problem though and if we as a nation are not even allowed/able to discuss the problem, honestly, openly, without fear of being labeled as the worstest person ever & without blowing off people who disagree as "racists" with a wave of their oh-so-tolerant hand, we will never be able to agree on anything enough to actually formulate a viable solution to it.

I won't pretend to know the answer to everything, but I think that a good start would be a mass-quelling all of the childish & counter-productive labeling & name-calling so that adults can have a conversation without those sorts of interuptions.

Call me a racist if you will, but to have any transforming effect you'll have to meet these stringent requirements:

 

(1)  I have to care about your opinion.

(2)  See (1).
