The truth

By Class - This FML is from back in 2012 but it's good stuff - United States - Newton Center

Today, I brought my 90-year-old grandfather into school for a project that required to bring in "a first-hand account" of the Great Depression. He started off by telling the class how in his day, they "threw rocks at black people." FML

Although that's horribly racist, I gotta admit, that's pretty hilarious.

That's how it was back in those days, only thing that has changed is it goes both ways now.

Even so, throwing rocks is above and beyond . Calling them names I can understand, but throwing objects?

25) How do you think monkeys settle disputes? They fling poo(I think) so why should we be any different with rocks?

There are worse things than throwing rocks. Lynching comes to mind, and neither one of those actions are a good thing.

Of course not. That's not racist at all. I see absolutely no racism in this FML. Yes it's racist. It's apparent from the information in the text.
