Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Black Folks You Admire?

Out off 20 or so million blacks there has been 100 or so name here, all good people. It looks like it is easier to ask "Do you like cottonmouth water moccasin or rattlesnakes?" Perty sure there have been a few good ones but not many.

Arthur Ashe Sr.

Taught me much about hunting and fishing and adventure when I was in my early teens.

Anyone that's a Republican

Well when I was a kid it was Dr J, Curly and Joe Morgan

My aunt lived by Walter Payton and said he was a great guy.

Met Meadowlark Lemon at an Angel Tree event. Good Christian man. I was like a little school kid when I got an autograph.

Haven't seen Morgan Freeman mentioned, altho Danzel was. Two of Hollywood's best.

The first black person I ever talked to was when I was 21 yrs old in the Air Force. All of the black NCO's were good guys, and were always fair to us white guys. But at the same time if one of the black guys under them screwed up, they jumped right dead in their schit! I also had some good friends that were black, but they were looked down on by their black co-workers. I think the blacks turned into the ones that we read about now. I think the 70's was the turning point.
I did think Bill Cosby was kind of a black hero until I found out otherwise.
I had a black nurse practitioner at the VA (foreign accent) the other day and he went over my tests better than I had ever had done before.

I don't know any blacks personally and I hardly ever see one.

I'm okay with that

I had a lot of black guys that were good friends when I was in the service in the 80's. There were some dickheads (just like whites) but most were good dudes.

I don't live near or deal with many blacks but when I do encounter them they get the same respect anyone else would get and deserve from me. I don't spend much time in any bigger city though, and that's on purpose.

None.
