We are being deluded and our poor children will pay for it.
Division may be the answer that saves us. Straight hetero Judeo Christians here, “others” over there. Conform or be cast out.
Revcom has been very active in the Ferguson protests.
Don’t think for moment they will ever let that happen.
Yep
There’s dozens of active “Sanders has problems with minorities” and “BLM’ers are hurting us” type-subject threads over at DU right now. They’re at each others’ throats and greatly entertaining.
Except there will be no majority or the majority will be Hispanic.
Doesn’t quite work that way in the inner cities. That’s a different world.
Not really.
Their numbers will be smaller than first claimed.
