Elizabeth Warren touts racial equality in speech
Boston Herald ^ | January 12, 2015 | Antonio Planas

U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren gave a sweeping civil rights address yesterday, warning “we are under attack” in the fight for social justice as she addressed a cheering crowd of civic leaders in a historic black church in Roxbury.

“In the past half-century, our country has made progress. But we are under attack,” Warren told worshipers at the Twelfth Baptist Church, where she was presented a Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Leadership Award.

“There are those who want to reverse those gains. Those who want to take away votes. Those who want to make it harder to get an education. Those who believe justice and dignity are reserved only for some people. Those who believe it should be a challenge to vote or even walk down the street. The Supreme Court has now struck down a key section of the Voting Rights Act. Young men have died in police custody. And the growing heel of poverty has worn down harder on children of color.”

The crowd gave Warren multiple standing ovations.

Social justice is just words meaning screw the hard working America and steal his money to hand it to the lazy uneducated idiots that most never worked a real day in their lives.

“racial equality”

Hey Liz!

We have that already.

You proved that by gaining a career advantage by claiming to be a race you don’t belong to.

“racial equality”

Say I'm a business man and need to hire a worker. I'm going to hire the guy that I deem will be most productive (among applicants.)

In other words, I'm going to discriminate.

Today's race-baiters assume I will discriminate.......and they're correct.....for the wrong reason.

I think Ms. Warren is trying to stir up the liberal natives to believe the white man has failed to treat any and all races as equals and with justice. Soon she’ll have them whipped into a frenzy and they’ll want to hang the Lone Ranger and John Wayne for being racist. Who knew!

Sad to see a woman lost in hate for her kind, unable to recognize any facts and truths, and unable to function responsibly within the hard world most normally adjusted people face daily. We are surrounded by cuckoos and clueless sheeple.

Flaming liberal political leadership in full display here folks...backed by low info voters and more gimme dats. Wake up! America has gone to h*ll in a hand basket. How much more shall we endure?

Baraq 2.0.
I fear what she will look like after the journ-0-lists polish her for 12 months.
We saw what they did with a guy from Kenya via Indonesia who attended a virulently anti-white church for 20 yrs.

These people grease the wheel of poverty with their programs that spend trillions of other peoples’ dollars, and they talk about poverty growing.

They’re the cause of it to keep these people down and voting demtard. Yet they claim no responsibility for it.

It’s evilliant.

And I assume the IRS will quickly investigate that church for inappropriate political activity.

If you don’t get the sarcasm you just aren’t paying attention.

This was their observance of MLK Day. She wouldn't have been there otherwise.

She professes to be a United Methodist. Probably is an atheist but doesn’t have enough integrity to admit it.
