Nor do you. The OP posted an innocuous apology that ONLY SHE took ownership for. Did not even imply that anyone else should and what did you do?
You posted a nasty "F*** That S***" in response.
Likely because you're part of the underbelly of this country that was protesting in North Carolina that she was referring to.
So get off of your moralizing high horse about disagreeing in a civil manner, you disingenuois, two faced, prick.
Oh, well, that.
Yeah, the idea that someone is morally responsible for the actions of someone else, is beyond the pale.
Fuck that shit.
Where did the OP state that she was "morally or personally" responsible?
It has been said that sunlight is the worlds best disinfectant.
Apparently the poster shined some on the guilty conscience of a few small minded chatacters here, didn't she?
Completely explains some of your rabid, foul responses to her post.

Actually, I was more thinking of the way she wanted to apologize FOR those whom she thinks have not spoken up enough about the "racism" she sees.
A. The vast majority of what she "Sees" is not racism.
b. I know that she means any white person that is not wallowing in white guilt. Not wallowing in white guilt does NOT make me or any other white person responsible for anything.
She described what she saw in Charlotte. THAT speaks for itself.
How would YOU know that she is referring to ANY white person not "wallowing" in white guilt?
Did you intentionally overlook her statement saying:
"As one individual I apologize"?
Or are you one of those racially obsessed nuts who views every race including your own as a "collective"?
Do you know her personally? How do you even know "what she sees"?
Maybe YOUR problem is that YOU are secretly wallowing in unresolved "white guilt" yourself?
Someone once said that "masses of men lead lives of quiet desperation".
Its humorous that someone would get so defensive over a very generic "apology" by a complete stranger....especially when it does not affect them in the least.
The idea that WHite America or any white American owes blacks an apology is bullshit, and very divisive harmful bullshit.
Other than for any INDIVIDUAL actions they may have taken.
She was not apologizing for actions she had taken.
I've talked to her before, I know where she is coming from.
In a different way, embarrasingly, I almost agree with you.
Generally, apologies do not reverse a wrong, and the best payback for a wrong is an individuals own concience.......if they happen to have one.
There have been a number of (former) bigots like you who have apologized for their past behavior. Strom Thurmond and George Wallace to name just a couple.
Were their apologies wrong as well?
That aside, you are full of shit. Mainly because you do not know the poster, and your own obtuse thought process is exactly as I said. You look at races as a collective.
You actually believe that what YOU think should apply to everyone who shares your skin pigmentation.
