Pence hasn’t gotten around to criticising the white supremacists who marched in Charlotteville yet, two months after they murdered someone there, but he couldn’t wait to put the boot into some black athletes making a silent protest.
"So much of the Trump phenomenon is about history. Fueling the divide between pro- and anti-Trump camps is exactly the fact that we’ve never had a real reckoning with either our terrible past or our similarly bloody present. The Trump movement culturally represents an absolute denial of our sins from slavery on – hence the intense reaction to the removal of Confederate statues, the bizarre paranoia about the Washington Monument being next, and so on.
But #resistance is also a denial mechanism. It makes Trump the root of all evil, and is powered by an intense desire to not have to look at the ugliness, to go back to the way things were. We see this hideous clown in the White House and feel our dignity outraged, but when you really think about it, what should America’s president look like?
Trump is no malfunction. He’s a perfect representation of who, as a country, we are and always have been: an insane monster. Frankly, we’re lucky he’s not walking around using a child’s femur as a toothpick."
Are you suggesting he was completely stitched up here, that based on nothing the powers that be decided to charge the victim of an assault with assault?
Any proof to that despicable claim referring to me as that, you odious little prick? I highlight your ridiculous ‘is it cause I is black’ ali g style screaming mary act, because you are a parody.
Your Harvey Weinstein post is your best yet - some rich white Hollywood producer is getting mugged off in the press for being a sexual predator and you lament that some completely unrelated black film director, also accused of being a sexual predator/rapist isn’t getting the same support because he’s black
So in short, you’re unhappy a black man accused of rape isn’t getting equivalent support of famous rapist Harvey. Have you any idea how ridiculous you sound?
He’s the forum’s expression of white guilt mate, so torn asunder with remorse for the sins of the white man that he has to embrace black culture to somehow atone for those sins. What he fails to understand is that it’s the same white guilt and the liberal policies resulting from it which has resulted in blacks in America being worse off now than they were in the 1960s when the Civil Rights Act was passed.
In 1950, 83% of black children grew up in a home with two parents, now it’s 33%.
In 1965, 8% of black children were born out of wedlock, now it’s a staggering 72%.
In 1954, 4% of black men were unemployed, now it’s 20% and >50% in many areas.
All this after decades of affirmative action programs, and most shocking all these metrics got worse during the 8 years of our first black president. Liberals call this progress, and clowns like @turenne can listen to his gangsta rap, rant about white supremacy, and feel good about himself.
