About 87% of the population does NOT matter and deserves their beat-down (and more).

But so long as the 13% get to express their anti-social, violent urges, and receive plenty of free stuff from the 87% who actually produce stuff, it's all good. I guess.

Doubtful that you will find black lives matter grafitti anywhere in south or west Chicago. Because when blacks kill blacks, activists could care less unless the killer is white.

Last summer, I heard a tour group pass this statue and the director called Columbus “controversial” and “there are two sides to every story...” and then expressed how some people don’t want this man “celebrated.”

Yesterday, I saw a TV ad where two men, one white and one black, were on the sidelines of a tennis match and one of the Williams’ sisters intentionally delivered a serve directly at the white guy and knocked him down. In reality, this is assault. I don’t know the product trying to be sold. Imagine if a white male hockey player took a slap shot and the result was a black women in the stands took a puck to the choppers. My guess the ad would be removed immediately.

We are living in strange times.

Christopher Columbus the racist directed his slave ships and dark skin on board servants forced to cross the oceans and discover lands. You know the new PC revisionist history— get with the neo propaganda already, (’

How is that not a “hate crime”? If a “white person” had vandalized a M. L. King statue you can bet it would be called a hate crime.

I hope the Italians find the culprit and make him an offer he can’t refuse.

Have there been any Planned Parenthood offices that have had that slogan painted across their doors, signs or buildings? Probably not.

Maybe a little more indirect.

CC let White privilege land and occupy the New World. These Whites then started up a need for slaves. The rest follows.

I'm guessing this act was carried out by a white (communist, hence the red paint). Blacks are still rare in this area. Years ago when the mafia still had control, they were non existent here.
