Ummm, it appears that Lyle has also misread postings. Each time I 
have attempted to point that out to him, you jump in to defend him. 
So what is really going on here?

Come on, Anne, get real.  You seem to have an urge to pick at 
anything Lyle 
has posted recently, and to insinuate that he is somehow a racist.   
To make 
sure,  I just  reread everything he's written in the last week plus 
your 
replies, and it's clear you have completely misread Lyle's postings.

Your logic --or lack thereof--  shows up when you suggest comparing 
apples 
to apples and then use the KKK and Farrenkat's preaching as 
examples.  You 
can't just chose part of the equation, and unless you also consider 
time, 
location,  etc. your comparison  would still be a mixed bag of 
fruit.   I 
suppose now you'll charge me with being a racist, too, but you'd 
better 
think twice and ask for pictures before you do, unless, like Lyle,  
you 
believe  racism can be found anywhere.

At the risk of being a real bore, may I suggest you back off and give 
others 
a chance to have opinions, and if you think you disagree and should 
comment, 
read what they had to say a second time, CAREFULLY.
