Dec 2016

and alert stalked all over the board for saying this

Several posters keep lying and saying I am saying ALL whites are racist, when I have NEVER said that once in my entire life, let alone on this board

I am half Swedish, my father (ethnic white) and all his family are wonderful people

my wife is ethnic white Swedish, my mum is mixed (Barbados)

I only judge people on how they act, never on how they look ethnically

the removed post was so vicious and nasty it left me in tears

I so do not feel safe here and I am on verge of being banned due to multiple alerts on me

I am at wits end
