Heh, when I was growing up I read books about Pirates, but I'm still not allowed to openly carry a musket :(

Someone needs to write a children's book about butt pirates

I'm slightly uncomfortable that everyone here besides The_E immediately transposed "non-white" into "black".  There are a lot more non-white groups than just black people, guys.
The only non-white open carry demonstrations I knew of at the time of posting were the Black Panthers in the 60s in California (which was immediately followed by California's open carry ban, courtesy of Reagan) so that's why I limited my post to black. I hereby acknowledge that other races besides black and white exist and very possibly have members crazy enough to support open carry.

Not really, Swash mentioned the Black Panthers and I immediately followed that with a joke. Everyone followed that trend without referencing The_E so the distillation of the discussion down to just black people with guns wasn't really anything to do with everyone thinking that anyone not white must be black.

I'm pretty sure most of us on HLP know that there aren't only Whites and Not-Whites. Or even only 3 or 4 races.

All two of them.

Except for Lorric of course.

If your post had looked like the above, we wouldn't be having this conversation.

Karajorma: That was unnecessary and uncivilized. It might have helped, rather than jumping to a conclusion at somebodies expense, trying to actually discuss the issue or perhaps try to actually understand it a bit rather than just assuming you know it.

Sorry. I didn't realize that what I thought was clear wasn't. For clarity that is indeed what I meant with the post, two people.

Returning to the original topic, can we all agree that the parents depicted on the cover of the book are siblings?

I think we can ALL agree on that and more

Best part about that is the "Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought" list, without question.
