CHOICES: Some aren't so hard

| March 23, 2014 9:00 PM

In response to Cecil Kelly’s letter “If I were black” (March 9):

• I would take the gay-free black lunch counter any day.

• Would I be forced to stare at two gay men kissing each other in some white-owned theater (on or off screen)? I’ll take the black-only theater — any day.

• Would I rent a house with the landlord boasting how he allowed three white perverts to christen it before they moved on? I don’t think so.

• If all these public services are run by freaks — give me a break.

• Be very careful, Cecil, with that chip on your poor shoulder. Most blacks resent being patronized, and don’t want any part of this deviant victims group you’re trying to protect.

“Thy” will be done.
