EXCLUSIVE: Black Congressmen Refuse To Condemn Ellison’s Past Proposal For A ‘Black State’
Daily Caller ^ | November 30, 2016 | Alex Pfeiffer

WASHINGTON — Several Democratic members of the Congressional Black Caucus Tuesday refused to denounce Minnesota Rep. Keith Ellison’s call for a black state. One congressman stated, “I don’t see anything really objectionable.”

.
The Georgia Democrat said he wouldn’t comment on whether Ellison would have to denounce these comments. While Rep. Lewis said previous groups espoused similar ideas for a black state, the New Black Panther Party currently supports it.

The group’s co-leader proposed an idea very similar to Ellison’s. He said that African-Americans should claim a “black nation” in “Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, Alabama, and Georgia.” Ellison’s black state would be in Arkansas, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana and Mississippi.

Would it have a big, beautiful wall around it? How about they adopt Liberia, instead? Sorry, bros, no Senators or Representatives.

If I said I wanted Idaho and Montana to be “white state” they would LOCK ME UP. Well, Ok, that was an exageration. A BATFE informant would stick me with some bogus weapons charge and then an FBI sniper would shoot me.

“Africa”

Exactly! If they don’t like the US and want a “Black State” they are free to move to Africa.

I’m sure the press is going to demand Obama and Hillary to denounce this racist man for his crazy alt-left ideas and spewing hate and division. Right?

Do you get the sense that ‘hater’ is following the path blazed by ‘racist,’ wherein everybody is labeled with it and the meaning drains away?

No no no. Just give them California and let them secede.

Let’s be completely honest here, none of that group have ever “condemned” any stupid, racist comment by any black man or woman unless he or she was a conservative.

they are free to move to Africa.

But realize that Africans recognize that there's nothing African in "African-Americans".

It reminds me of the story of the little boy who put rabbit turds in matchboxes and sold them on the schoolyard for a dollar as “smart pills”.
Ace your exams! But an older boy sniffed the contents and said, “Hey! This ain’t nuthin’ but bunnie crap!”

Just before bolting, the little boy said ...

“African Americans had a chance to have their own country:
Africa’s first republic, Liberia was founded in 1822 as a result of the efforts of the American Colonization Society to settle freed American slaves in West Africa. The society contended that the emigration of blacks to Africa was an answer to the problem of slavery and the incompatibility of the races.”

Our perpetually disgruntled AA citizens respond, “But we weren’t even born yet. How can we be held responsible for something that happened in 1822?!”

“See? You’re getting smart already.”

If the nation can agree to split up in groups, and their states secede, fine.

Then again, I think it would be better for all if we got the libs on one side and the real Americans on the other. White America would still be split 50-50 and still be embroiled in infighting.

Yeah it’s like the boy who cried wolf. Especially in politics. The left doesn’t understand that nobody outside of their bubble believes the typical person is really racist.

That aside, this man clearly is intolerant of whites and doesn’t think whites and blacks are capable of living together. If he were in charge of the DNC how would he actually be helpful? The democrats obviously have a weak bench that he is seriously be considered to lead them. Of course it would be entertaining for us to watch what this tool would do to drag the democrat party down and minimize their chances of electoral success.
