  • vb6 Textbox Properties?

    Textbox will not use multiple lines even after setting properties to

    multline=true:Scrollbar=both

    and using the vblf command in string format assigned to Text1.Text.

    Only a square box is displayed in the Text1.Text at the end of the string. This didn't happened before I don't understand why it's happening now? Thank you for you assistance.

  • Did Mr. M. L. King Have To Live A Nightmare?

    I never stop hearing voices of those who take these freedoms we have now for granted as if we've always had them as if the relationships between Blacks and Whites have always been this way but if only you could have lived through the horror of just trying to be seen as a valued human being maybe then you could understand that 1960 isn't that far back.

  • What Is The Cost of Warring?

    A film documentary titled: "The Body of War" created by Phil Donahue & Ellen Spiro. I didn't see the film but only clips of it and it seems very powerful as it falls a disabled veteran's struggle. The program mentioned 28,000 injured soldiers returning home from this current war.

    So how much does it cost to war 5 years now?

  • Is Owl Playing The Race Card?

    Apparently a Hunkpapa Sioux here thinks I might be for presenting the truth regarding racism as it relates to African Americans. Granted the American Indians suffered at the hands of racial hatred however Black Africans were also slaves of some American Indian tribes. Maybe it's just me but it seems pretty sanctimonious to imply that they have suffered greater when they themselves have been a party to this racial degradation of black Africans. What Do You Think?

  • How Is It People Always Focuses On The Bad?

    In all the years I've been alive the question people ask is it Ok to call this person this slang word or is it Ok to call that person this slang word.

    But it seem like it takes an act of God before someone says is it Ok if I call this person or that person something nice, like Mr., Mrs, Madam, Sir..........It Just Doesn't Happen.

  • What Do You Think About Internet Searching?

    Ok This Is The One Thing That Frost My Behind.

    Whenever I put in a specific search word or phrase I can be guaranteed to get plenty of options that have nothing to do with what I wanted. And, And let's say you find something that kinda looks like what you wanted for example you want to buy a hand held radio-that's it, but you've got 30 websites telling you about the history of transistors, AM/FM- junk you did even ask for and after 1 hour and 45 minutes you find that website that says you can buy that radio here.

    The internet doesn't serve the people because the internet is too busy trying to control the people. How many times have see if you want more information about this or that click here only to be redirected to something I have no interest in, but these people believe we are too stupid to know what we want so they'll suggest for us what we need.

  • What Will Our Future Be Like?

    I wonder what the future will be like? People are leaving mother earth left and right. I think of all those people who've given so much so that we can have the kind of freedoms we have today, people from all our cultures for the most part so that we didn't have to endure the ignorances from those who would abuse them and one day soon you young people will be in charge of this world. I read the messages posted here and I see people focused on one world mispelled, or those same old racism wrapped in a younger body and I wonder what kind of future is going to come from those who have not experienced the pains of trying to be free, will wisdom come into play when it's your turn to provide guidance?

    And where they are unable to obtain legislation reflecting their racist views, they find ways of illegally putting those views into practice in any case. Groups of Conservative Right individuals formed at some State institutions of higher education, for example, contrive to drive minority and women faculty and students out of those institutions by illegal means. This is what some advocates of Social Darwinism, biological determinism, are doing at the University of Texas, under the cover of institutional authority. (16)
