I do not think I've done anything wrong so there is no reason to avoid
anything.  Just sharing some personal experiences.  "Pulling a Proyect"
was meant to be humorous.

As to the second part of your posting, I think you turn what I said on
its head.  I did not say that blacks or NAACP have a special
responsibility to prevent creation of stereotypes. I said that making
criminal thugs poster boys of struggle against discrimination does not
strike me like a particularly effective strategy. That seems to
undermine the organization's stated mission of "advancement" of the
people it represents.
