    Because my parents were, yes. Because of their race, my parents were able to get a decent loan for a home in a decent neighborhood in the 1970's, when redlining was still a thing.



    That is central mass if I am not mistaken, near Worcester correct?
    It's about halfway between Worcester and Boston, and a little bit north. But basically, yes.

    You realize that the parents (most of them anyway) and the psychiatrists are trying to "gaslight" the children for two years to identify as the biological sex they were born with? It's almost like the gay conversion therapy. It doesn't work with genuine transgender children.

    I never knew what you did in the medical field, but you really lack knowledge in a lot of areas.

    You're not?

    I was born and raised in a tenant house that we didn't own and I didn't live in a single family home until I was 31 and married with 2 kids. My wife and I scaped money together so we could buy a 3 bedroom ranch. I went to a state college and worked full time while in college. It seems we had different advantages.

    Bromfield is a private school is it not? Founded by a member of the family that lent their name to the school.

    It might have started out as a private school, but it was a public school by the time I attended it.

    Fair enough

    But I would suggest that nothing was handed to you because you are white.

    i'm glad to see you accepting of your own mediocrity, despite your advantages and legs up by your wealthy and elitist upbringing
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    Well, you don't know anything about my current station because I don't volunteer that information. So you're just playing a guessing game.

    you've posted enough about yourself on here for anyone to know that you consider yourself better than others because you went to college, that you have a negative outlook and attitude about those in the military, that it was probably due to being lower income or a minority of some sort. You, foolishly, consider yourself educated yet time and again you've shown you don't know jack shit about how the government works.............

    those aren't guesses, those are all born by facts of your own making

    Well, I never said that so if that's what you're feeling, then that's your problem, not mine.

    I can't control how bad or good you feel about yourself when compared to the limited information I've given about myself here.

    How long do you want to allow yourself to feel like I'm putting you down, even though I'm not?

    I would have to value your opinion first before I let it bother me. you HAVE said that............don't deny it. own the arrogant braggadocio you've put out here.........

    A gross oversimplification because I wholly support the soldiers who are actually putting themselves on the line to defend this country...the problem is I just don't see many soldiers doing that.

    I also resent this belief that veterans are some sort of special class of people whose opinions and beliefs are validated simply by the fact that they wore a uniform for a while.

    I don't consider all veterans equal, and don't canonize them any more than I would any public employee who is simply doing their job. Why does that require special accommodation for veterans when we haven't fought a legitimate war in 70+ years? All we want is health care.


    that it was probably due to being lower income or a minority of some sort. You, foolishly, consider yourself educated yet time and again you've shown you don't know jack shit about how the government works
    Stop.

    It's not that I don't know how the government works, it's that I don't accept your vision of how the government works.

    Your vision of how the government works is your own, not some sort of academic or public standard.
