[RC] dangerous THEM versus US thinking - LTYearwood
What I've learned from them is they will do anything to win, buy
up
all the competition's best horses, and, position themselves
where they
can control an International Organization to the
extent where our sport
has now become their
HOWARD. Do we have to GENERALIZE and border, if not tip over into the realm
of RACISM? Because that is what you do when you use the all-encompassing
category "THEY."
THEY will do anything to win?
THEY will buy up all the competition's best horses?
THEY will postition themselves where they can control; an International
Organization to the extent where OUR sport has now become THEIRS?
Since when does a sport belong to ANYONE? Just because something originated
here doesn't mean it BELONGS to US.
Get a grip and back yourself up with specifics and facts -- not fear-based
gerneralizations that make you sound like you hate ALL OF THEM.
Anyone who knows me for two seconds knows I care about horses more than any
sport. But I care about people, too.
Why don't we try focusing on OURSELVES since we can't control THEM.
