johnf Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 Re: Ethnicity Question Many people of color see a question about race and automaically they have thoughts of devisiveness and discrimination. This is not an unreasonable conclusion that they come to as many times it is accurate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reloader Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 Re: Ethnicity Question [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] IRISH! say it ain't so, buckee! lol [/ QUOTE ] Just my descendants I'm a Canadian [/ QUOTE ] "Decendants? Surely you mean ancestors old boy!" (slightly modified quote from Mel Gibson in What Women Want.) To answer the post though; I think ethnicity tends to come up less due to the fact that for the most part we all share the same values. Personaly I am 50% Welsh My grandparents on my mothers side sailed here in the 1920's I believe. and 50% Californian(4th generation born in CA, why go back any further) And for those of you that hate CA politics...So do I. We grew up as redneck Californians. Had a second cousin that showed off by shooting 3 in flight doves in a row with his 357 revolver...is that redneck enough?
