So let me give you some context. When I was 16 years old my parents and I drove to the city for a local comic convention going on. I was waking around looking at stuff to buy and getting pictures with people in cool costumes.

Then I saw this girl in an amazing costume from a show I liked, she looked to be about my age. So I asked for a picture with her and she happily accepted. I later posted it on social media and when she saw the picture she messaged me and said it was nice to meet me and eventually we planned to meet up in a group of people at another convention.

That came and went and after getting to know each other better there we decided to hangout just the two of us. So we got coffee someplace a few days later.

That's where we really got to know each other better. Turned out she went to my highschool and we had a lot of similar interests. But I also got the unfortunate news. She was only 14.

Not only was she 14, it would be 9 months before she was 15 where as it would only be 4 months before I was 17. Translation, we had a 2 year 5 month age difference.

I had started growing feelings for her and after considering this for weeks I eventually decided to ask her on a date. I figured that most my friends that were girls were 16 and dating 21 year olds, so our age difference wouldn't be that weird.

I met her parents immediately and explained our situation to make sure they were okay with it and they said they were. As long as we took it slow.

So yes we've taken it slow, but 8 months later I still get comments about how I'm a pedo and going to hell. Am I?

So. Quick question.

Do you think black political groups actually think things through? Two examples.

We all know how people rioted and burned Baltimore "For Freddie Grey and Justice." One man who died in police custody. They showed police that cops are accountable, etc.

And coincidentally, there have been 338 homicides in Baltimore this year. Almost one per day! Kind of makes sense. Riot, burn things down over a career heroin dealer... get the mayor to offer six cops to sate the bloodlust... and the the police take a hint. They back off. And Baltimore suddenly has had over 100 more homicides this year than 2014.

Second example. Louis Farrakhan is leading a "justice or else boycott." The idea is, blacks stop spending, hurt the economy, "redistribute the pain." And hence, make a point.

Thing is, stop and think about that. Let's say you boycott retail businesses and really hurt them. What happens?

Stores close.

Where will stores close? The areas that really boycotted the stores and profits vanished? (such as, heavily black areas) or the areas where no one boycotted the stores and profits were okay?

Such a boycott literally will only help to ensure more black areas are devoid of business, and ensure that blacks lose jobs working at local stores. White areas won't be affected.

So, agree or disagree? Black political groups really don't think things through and realize what will happen?
