This comment: by @Dingdong08" in the post "Racism or harmless micro-aggression?".
Dude, you were practically lynched! You're lucky you got out of there alive.

Your ass gets chapped by something as small as that but you're ok to say shit like "blacks need to get their shit together rather relying on the government to get into elite schools and jobs" and //www.wallstreetoasis.com/forums/trump-wont-rule-out-database-special-id-…. You go Rosa Parks!
