Was that remark made to you? Did I say your name? Or were you agreeing that you also have some imperfections? Have been known to offend from time to time? What? You think Bowdrill can't argue for himself. Stay out of it.

As for this message, I am not aware that anyone has posted the address of this site to anyone.

I have heard folks talk about folks over here and over there, back and forth. If I got something to say to you, believe me I will and you'll know it. I expect the same from you.

I'll apologize for saying what I did about the white looking people, cause I know there are lots of light skinned ndn people and it was hurtful. So...if you fit into that catagory....It doesn't make it right to make comments. I don't even know you. You don't know me either, so we know nothing about each others experiences.
Been around alot of racism all my life and sometimes it just seems like a knee jerk response to say something without giving people's feelings a thought.

I'm done.
