Big difference between you and me, never to be bridged. UTUSN Jun 2018 #15

Civil Rights and equality is a bridge too far? NY_20th Jun 2018 #16

And you fit the pattern of not grokking while never stopping. S'long!1 UTUSN Jun 2018 #19

I'm seriously curious as to why you feel the need NY_20th Jun 2018 #24

How is this conversation not about Civil Rights? NY_20th Jun 2018 #35

Well said, Hekate. n/t pnwmom Jun 2018 #36
