Well you are one of the few exceptions.Anyway,you said in a post before that you were white.I don't know,and don't care,but are you sure what race you are?You call me ignorant for posting what I did,but you know as well as I do that I see this happening everyday all around me,so it is ignorant on your part to disagree with me.Four murders here in Valdosta have been by a black person with a gun.How many were by a white man with a gun.80% of the murders here are by a black person with a gun,and 20% are by a white man without a gun,and you think that I'm ignorant and am just making up stuff?
