YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT TRUMP AND BLACK ATHLETES PROTESTING RACISM?

Not on the football field, it does not belong there. They are counting on white guilt and social shaming to change the fact they are employees and need to follow the rules of those who employ them. They want chaos, not order, and are part of the problem not the solution.

@coldjoint,
So basically then you just are interested in trying to zing Democrats for racism and are willing to completely ignore the Trump/GOP racism. Thought so.

Dear LeBron: Democrats, Not Trump, Ran Cities Like Akron Into The Ground

Duh
Quote:
The current city council has 14 members, including a clerk; every member is a Democrat. It’s not unusual for Democrat cities to have city councils with 80 percent or more Democrats throughout their modern histories; in Akron, I was unable to verify the political parties of members over the last 13,000 consecutive days, although I reckon they weren’t GOP xenophobic anti-immigrant, lifelong NRA members who want to Make America Segregated Again.

@MontereyJack,
Trump's racism should be common knowledge. He didn't rent any of his apartments to blacks. He paid for a full page ad to execute five innocent black kids. He pushed the birther idea against Obama for five years. Yes, five years. What normal person does such a thing? Only a mentally unbalanced person would spend the money to push lies against a political candidate. Many psychiatrists question Trump's mental stability, and rightly so since he has the nuclear code. His border wall and tariffs are stupid ideas that's been challenged by many people. A border wall costing tens of billions to build and maintain will not stop illegal immigration. His tariffs succeeded in starting a trade war that only results in higher prices for all consumers. He's not only ignorant but dangerous to our freedoms and sanity. His separation of children from their parents at the border proves how ignorant he is about the mental health of children and their parents. It's almost guaranteed that he will do much more harm to our country and its people in the next two years of his term. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/psychiatrists-debate-weighing-in-on-trumps-mental-health/
Cost of Trump's border wall.
https://money.cnn.com/2017/01/25/news/economy/trump-mexico-border-wall-cost/index.html
Summary: Wall will cost $3.9 million per mile.
Six reasons why Trump's tariffs is a bad idea.

None of those things mean he is racist. Not renting to blacks was a business decision influenced by the racism around him, not his. If those black kids were guilty why would their skin color matter? He had the money to back up what he believed. As for Obama it was not about color, it was about eligibility. Obama just happened to be black. Trump being white does not mean he was born here(he was) does it? Are all white people born in America?

You are the racist here.

@coldjoint,
Including Trump calling Mexicans "criminals and rapists," and banning all Muslims from entering our country contrary to our Constitution. He also didn't rent any of his apartments to blacks. He paid for a full page ad in NYC to execute five innocent black kids. They were proven innocent from DNA testing.

Show proof I'm a racist.

coldjoint, You're more than ignorant.

Look at your post. You clearly think blacks deserve different treatment. And anything bad that happens to them is somehow not their fault and because of their color? That is racist. You are a racist.

Does it hurt?

Yes. I want our legal system to provide more equality to blacks. https://www.vera.org/newsroom/press-releases/research-confirms-that-entrenched-racism-manifests-in-disparate-treatment-of-black-americans-in-criminal-justice-system

It's evident you are blind to the unequal treatment of blacks in this country. It proves to me you are a bigot, because unequal treatment of blacks is common knowledge in this country. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2915460/

I understand bigotry in this country too well. During WWII, we Japanese Americans were put into concentration camps in this country by the white majority. A history mostly forgotten by the people of this country. FYI the 442nd Infantry Batallion made up of Japanese Americans were the most decorated unit in American history. My cousin in Hawaii was also in the 442nd Infantry. They fought in Italy, France and Germany, and did MIS service in the Pacific theater as interpreters and code breakers. Many volunteered into the Army from those concentration camps.

I don't need any lesson on inequality by a bigot like you!

@cicerone imposter,
In regard to the Japanese Americans that was placed in camps during WW2 to me the very small percent of the total young Japanese Americans men that flatly refused to be drafted and serviced in the US military given how they and their families was being treated was at least as brave and honorable as those who did service with war honors during WW2 while their families was behind barbed wire.

Ohio special election tonight.

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/08/07/us/elections/results-ohio-special-house-election-district-12.html

Once again we have a green party candidate in the race trying to suck votes away from the democratic candidate.

The green party candidate does not have a chance in hell of winning but they can certainly spoil it for the democrat.

A green party vote is a vote for a republican...

Given the amount of democrats that the green party candidates have historically unseated, they should be seen for what they are, traitors to the progressive movement...

"The Green Party candidate who got nearly 4% of the vote two years ago – earns just 2%."

@TheCobbler,
Good points that needs to be spread to the masses. Many people don't realize what they are doing by voting for a third party candidate. I wouldn't be surprised if the republicans play this game to win elections.

Winners and losers from Tuesday’s elections

I hope O'Connor waits it out until the provisional ballots are counted before conceding.

@revelette1,
Not much from the progressive-wave this Tuesday is there?

Looks like just that guy down in Kansas who (maybe?) won by ~1000 votes in a crowded primary field with 6 candidates. The 6th place finisher got ~17800 votes. Wonder how he'll do in November if he's the candidate.
