Trayvon being dead has nothing to do with his skin color. Same crap in a new wrapper.

I think it’s funny, sadly ironic, that Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown became poster boys for this black lives matter business; the poster boys for black men being shot for no reason.

The irony, lost on liberals, is that they both brought their demise on themselves, by their own voluntary actions.

Yet we are supposed to be sympathetic about an alleged pandemic of black men shot for no reason, by white cops, or white Hispanic neighborhood watch, and their examples are those who instigated the incidents which resulted in their deaths. Go figure. I don’t get the liberal logic here.

And the fact that the legal system did not find guilt in either case, is simply dismissed by the liberals, as more evidence of a racist society, a racist criminal justice system. The facts of the cases don’t seem to matter to liberals.

Do they really think the right would have been outraged and had a different reaction if the burglar thug Trayvon had been white and done the same exacct things?

Hell, no. I don’t care what color thugs are.

Apparently the remedy for the excesses of Political Correctness is...yep...more Political Correctness. Sorry kids, that lollipop is all used up. You're sucking on an empty stick and crying about it.

Which movement, after all, has managed to promote literal racial apartheid in the 21st century as a cure for - yep - racism? Which movement has managed to raise women's athletics toward parity and then clobber them by forcing inclusion of men who fantasize they are women? Which movement has managed to conflate honest immigrants who are the backbone of American society with criminal invaders who have no intention of assimilation? These are the follies of political correctness, and the cure is not doubling down on them.

It is ”woke” to understand profoundly naive to think that Trayvon Martin . . . would be alive if [he] had been white and behaved like that in a black neighborhood.

Negro, colored, Afro-American, black, African-American (hyphenated), African American (no hyphen), and in an endless stream, liberals imagine that the right label will sell their product. Now this delicate snowflake wants to replace the nonsense term “political correctness” with the nonsense word “woke”.

Trayvon Martin and so many other criminals of various irrelevant skin tones would be alive if they had been law-abiding. Why not promote policies that encourage work instead of those that leave young people with nothing to do but cause trouble?

If the real goal of the left were to avoid disenfranchising lawful voters, why not work together with conservatives to build voter ID laws with real teeth (felony, 10 year minimum prison term for voting illegally or other vote fraud) with free ID laws (a bookmobile-like roving government ID trailer that prints the same non-driver ID that government offices print and goes to every back corner in the state annually offering free ID to those who have none . . . but with checks on residence and citizenship)?

No, wrong answer. Real Americans are not rejecting big government because straight whites didn’t get to be victims too. We reject liberalism, socialism, and tyranny because we value freedom. Being a dependent loser is not something we wish to aspire to, or even to be “woke” to.

Because white people have bullet proof skin?

If someone is one top of you beating on you and you have a gun you are going to use it.

Simple and basic.

Perhaps the black community should be "woke" to this issue.

This article is saying nothing that liberals/Leftists haven’t been saying for decades, i.e.: that they’re right, and we conservatives just need to wake up and understand that they’re right.

I read in another article, by a moonbat, that it’s “exhilerating,” for Leftists to vaunt their moral superiority. The only downside [according to the author] is that the people being told how racist/evil they are have a tendency to go out and vote for the other party.

The old orthodoxy isn't selling. We don't need to change our ways, stop preaching orthodoxies and start reporting news. We need a new orthodoxy to beat up conservatives with [conservative being anyone opposed to the practices of the nihilistic globalist anti-democratic anti-amercan order].

Garrison said it all in this cartoon.

The idea is not to cease battling racism, but to do it in a way that we can reasonably expect a populace of human beings to understand. Herewith, a new PC -- or, in current parlance, what it is to be "woke."

Woke!

How about that, lol.

My white ass “woke” to the fact that whites built western civilization to the highest level ever enjoyed by humans and any person of color is invited to join us at any time, but I for one will not let our civilization be dragged down to the level of the liberal trying to placate a bunch of black or muslim racists.

"The left wants white America to see itself as profoundly culpable, as the bad guy in the drama."

In other words, The Left, particularly the Negro Supremacists,
want to make white people into their doormats. Their punching bags of the twenty-first century.

So is it “I be woke” or “I is woke” or “I am woke”?

I read this article earlier, and I found it to be a smug, passive-aggressive call for liberals to reframe their “all whites are racist” bull-s*it so that everyday ignorant whites (not as educated, enlightened and clever as liberals) could understand why we whites should be (and are deserving of) self-hatred and constant bowing/scraping. What a pile of disingenuous, mealy-mouthed, pseudo-intellectual crap. Maybe the author will get “woke” by one of his pets. One can hope.

Anyone who thinks Trayvon was a victim didn’t look into the case at all.
