Facebook will ruin your career. Use it at your own peril if you cannot keep from posting your job and your true feelings together.

Oh no, they ain’t going back to Africa. If anything, they will start a new nation here in the South.

Well at least according to this new show...

Think they won’t? Atlanta will be the capital. All they need is someone like Bammy call them back home.

I find it honest..she spoke the truth...if people are not happy here then move elsewhere...

"move" has been a big theme for decades to address all those who are unhappy....

btw, how many horridwood people have left after saying they were going to move if Trump was elected?...

well, he was elected and I don't see many people leaving...

I know many will pooh-pooh the idea but it needs to be a serious discussion. We are past the point of polite discourse and everyday we are assailed by the victimhood argument.

We simply cannot cohabitate, it is proven, and it is getting worse. Daily.

I think we are only one seminal event from the flood gates opening.

So we need reasonable national leaders to talk about this.

I would gladly leave my home and relocate to another part of the US if it meant separation and peace.

Technically none of them would be going back to Africa, none of the people who she’s referring to have likely ever been to Africa...

ya know I read your post, “If your great great great grandparent came from Ireland an someone said “Go back to Ireland” you’d think they were nuts”
The sad fact is I’m of Irish/English descent and you are from Italian. Sadly if I went back to Dewsbury England today, it is all Muslim now.
Probably where your family came from in Italy too has been invaded.

I’m a teacher & I think FB is toxic. If I want to share something I will call or write that person.

How stupid can you be to post something like she did & think your job will not be affected??? Plus her refutation statement was filled w/ spelling mistakes. She is an embarrassment all the way around.

“I’m a teacher & I think FB is toxic. If I want to share something I will call or write that person.”


I joined FB about 10 years ago because a couple of grandkids were on it.

I was horrified when one of them,he was about 12 years old,told everyone that the family was going on vacation and that they would be gone for a week.

He was announcing,to MANY people, that the house would be empty. I was horrified and immediately called his mother.

These same kids don’t use FB anymore————they consider it passé.

...Multitudes of people have had their careers destroyed for saying or writing ONE thing that (most times) are either neutral or even complimenting to blacks.
Jimmy the Greek of one example.

Most slaves came from the West Coast: Ghana, Nigeria, Congo, Yorba, Benin, Togoland, etc.

Lincoln did NOT start the Civil War. The first shots were fired on Union troops by Fort Sumter, a Southern military base, on April 12, 1861.

She could have said the same thing in a different way to convey the idea that as Americans we are free to stay or to migrate if we don’t like the country. Didn’t even have to mention blacks.

The teacher was definitely leaving herself wide open with the “back to Africa” phrase but suggesting emigration as an option should not be a firable offense. She probably could have saved herself if she had suggested Spain as a destination. That is where all the Hollywood celebrities said they would go (but didn’t).
