Yeah ok, fair skin ... ( 1 week ago by AfricahasAIDS88)

Yeah ok, fair skin is fucking sexy. Not that pitch black shit you see coming from Africa. Besides most brown "blacks" actually have been mixed in with whites. Many African Americans actually have white ancestors, thats why many don't look like permanent marker anymore LOL Look it up over 1/3 of African Americans have white genes. Barack Obama is a perfect example, the supposed African American is in actuality half WHITE.

LOL Please, blacks are the most world renowned rapists. Thats why no parents trust their daughters to blacks LOL. Most of you bastards don't even know how to behave in a decent manner on a fucking bus or theater. They always have to make their presence know with loud obnoxious behavior! They are always the ones robbing grocery stores and jumping people in the street in their little tribal gangs. Talk about uncivilized creatures that have a taste for destruction.

The albinism syndrome shows parallels with sickle cell anemia. The carrier of the sickle cell mutation is at an advantage in regions where malaria is hyperendemic, which includes large areas of Africa.

Tus "buenos deseos" se te devolvieron para atras como un boomeran: Mas de 600 muertos en Haiti por el huracan Ike. No desees mal a nadie que se te devuelve. Por eso esta como estan, sus malos deseos comenzaron en 1822 y siempre han pagado un precio muy caro pero nunca han aprendido su leccion.
