How did you change to White?

I thought once you go Black, you never go back?!?!? :geekdanc: :rofl:

All I want is acceptance from my fellow Americans. After all this country is a melting pot of all races - whomever race or sex we identify with.

Activism.....
which is expressly related to this, how? 

sorry, just not seeing anything connecting that incident or the video to this, at all, other than a vague sense of "we're not gonna lose to terror".  like, we dont know ANYTHING about the video or situation other than "Tennessee walmart" and "public display of patriotism".

When they said "Melting Pot", I always thought it was a figure of speech, not a process for changing your own physical traits!  It sounds extremely painful!

When you say "we [don't] know ANYTHING about the video or situation," you really mean YOU [don't] know ANYTHING about the video or situation.

and how do YOU know?


the video has no description, and nothing other than the thing itself.  there's absolutely no context whatsoever supplied, and if you know the context (which matters), then why would you post it without that context?  i say WE because you gave no indication that you knew anything either.

I don't rely on just one source.  I felt the video speaks for itself to those who will hear it.  Trust me when I say, it's related to the shooting.

well, im not about to just automatically connect something to a shooting with no context.  sorry.  i dont work that way, and surely you could see why im thinking this way.  that video absolutely does not speak for itself without the context.  hell, we dont even know when it was filmed.  this could have happened years ago for all you know..  we know when it was uploaded. 

it sounds like there's an article attached to this, so why not post the article instead of the video sans context? 

in fact, i did that myself, which provides the proper context, im just pointing something out here.

posting this:

http://6abc.com/shopping/walmart-shoppers-sing-national-anthem-in-patriotic-viral-video/869363/

means infinitely more than posting someone's cell phone video out of context with no accompanying information.

Is your Google broken, or you just want to give me a hard time.  If the latter, it's not working!    :geekdanc: :rofl: :wave:

im giving you a hard time because posting something like that out of context makes the post worthless to the discussion, and people shouldnt have to google the background of a video to make the connections for the post to make sense. 

that, and after constantly watching terrible politicians take studies, stats, videos and quotes out of context to support gun control, i hate seeing people do that exact same thing here.  without the context, it could be just about anything.

Since the video is not out of context, you are out of line. 

You being unable to find the proper context on your own isn't my problem.  Had you asked politely, I would have given you the link, even though I didn't have that information when I posted it.  All I had was the Facebook post.  A little Googling is all it took and that is way quicker than typing all the BS you did here.

The video was updated.  Have a nice day.  And if you need an orientation on how to find things on the Internet, just PM me!  I'm here for you!

You had a point?  It must have gotten lost in the 7 off-topic comments you added since I posted the video which only you whined about.

I thought it was a feel-good, patriotic, red blooded American act caught on video.  That's why I posted it.

Some people just don't get it.
