Thank You Commentors

I just wanted to say a thank you for people who commented on the last entry regarding the whole racism in Resident Evil 5 debacle.  It was nice to know that despite all the places on the internet where trolling and writing in caps rule, there can be some mature discussion about a heated issue.

Many friends can tell you I'm very sensitive about issues of race when they come up, which I think stems from the issue being a big part of my life since elementary school.  But I love having a discussion about it from time to time.  I think we have to keep conversations about sensitive issues going because that's the only way everyone on every side can begin to understand each other.  

I hope that as my blog continues, we can still keep these conversations going, and maybe even learn something from each other.

Alright, didn't mean to get all after school special on you, readers.  Just stay cool.

  1. LOL, do you realize you have inadvertently alluded to the Fat Albert opening song?

    "You'll have some fun now
    With me and all the gang
    Learning from each other
    While we do our thang"
