There is a difference between a lady crossing the street because 3 bandana wearing, tatto'd up, wife-beater sporting, pants around his ankles dudes are walking towards her, and thinking "Oh, look it's the sevants" upon seeing black people in a nice house.
True.

Already got your racist reasoning worked out I see.Yes, you're really looking to change your ways."Hey Spademan, you A mofo, I KNOWS YOU'Z IS RACIST TOO" isn't really making any progress for yourself.
FYP
I bet you were losing when they broke up the game.. This was a trick to get you to leave and they still had your money.
We were playing a cash game and I was up. It was I that suggested we leave with what we came with. We all left with our original buy ins.*L*T*

dont trout swim in schools? why are you lone?
Name given to me by my flyfishing buddies. Whenever we go fishing, I always end up getting seperated from the crew and focusing on the one hardass trout in the hole, missing out on covering a lot more river.*L*T*

I admit, that's exactly what I did. It's as fucked a scenario as you can imagine. I wish I could snap my fingers and change this about me. Unfortunately, I've got some work to do. I have to critically think through my interactions with people. See the individual and not the ethnicity of the individual. Ain't gonna happen overnight. But I promise I will try not be the person I was tonight. I don't much care for that person.*L*T*

Oh, I got fucked, but not laid. Thanks for asking though.*L*T* :club:

Looks tough, but it's not. If you ever decide to do it. Go with a guide the first time or a really patient friend who flyfishes. It's an amazing pursuit. I would do it for a living if I wasn't married, guide that is.*L*T*

frickin hiliarious. What did you say or do to the parent? You could not be that far off base, you though the dad was the host. Give yourself a break. The parents probably flipped out becuase some 40 year old dude (which I am) was hanging out with his kids and felt like you might be taking advantage of them (in cards- not in a wierd way). The racist vibe is probably your imagination, but you got some serious work to do. Don't send the e-mail- Those people might not have figured out you were racist and probably will never see you again anyway. Let it go.

It was probably the age issue, but seriously SEND THE EMAIL.The email reflects what you were thinking and it is honest. It takes courage to admit that and sending it may encourage you to act differently in the future.Maybe throw in a first paragraph saying the issue might have been strangers in the house or age. Sidenotes: 1. the email is well written. 2. Nothing wrong with going to a random homegame, good stories usually are the result, soft games, and maybe a friend.

And until I rang the doorbell and the host answered I had no way of knowing these guys were high school kids or lived with their parents. You didn't know jack chit about anything you mulletard! You went into this thing totally blind like the donkey that you are...go and buy STACKED and play by yourself.OMG what a funny situation that must've been...wish I could've been a fly on the wall! Some 40 yr old donk shows up at high school kids and wants to play poker...what a totally weird situation.

I appreciate the sentiment. I like to think I'm pretty cool for my age :club: . I certainly don't treat people younger than me with overt contempt and derision just because they have less life experience. I find most people my age (that aren't friends of mine) to be boring and stuck playing roles that society expects them to play. Do you think a "stick in the mud" 40+ year old would stick around this forum with half the crazy shit that gets bantered about? I love the energy and candor that most of the exchanges on this forum have. I would have had a good time playing cards with those guys. Even if they busted me, I would have tipped my hat and made sure to tell them to call me the next time they played. I really believe the game transcends every difference we may have. Whether it be age, race, or gender. Those that love the game (and I do!) find that common ground and enjoy the opportunity to play against each other. In conclusion, I've decided to NOT send the email. My interpretation of the feedback I received in this thread makes me think I may have read WAY TOO MUCH into the way things shook out last night. However, I am still not letting myself off the hook as far as the introspection is concerned. I have employees and clients that are African American and I need to be aware of how I interact with them and be thoughtful and fair in all my dealings. To those who offered me genuine and thoughtful criticism and advice, I thank you. To those that read this thread and knee-jerked reacted with a flame, I hope when you reach my age (if you aren't already) that you emerge into middle age without the BS baggage that life beyond your control will leave you with.*L*T*

All I got out of this is that when *Lone*Trout* sees black people he assumes they are workers/servants.
FYPAnd he was an asshole for doing so.*L*T*
