Pessimism about race relations in America is higher than it has been in nearly a generation, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll. In the aftermath of the mass shooting of police officers in Dallas and the high-profile police shooting deaths of two black men, in Baton Rouge and suburban St. Paul, Minn., more than 6 in 10 adults say race relations are generally bad, and a majority say they are getting worse.

Even the Wa Compost can’t argue this one...

Obama and the Dems along with idiot Socialist around the world have done their damndest to put the fear of God into white people.

[Biggirl]

Not surprised.

[Biggirl]

Take comfort, Trump is coming in a few days.

[AZLiberty]

If he wants his legacy, he can keep his legacy.

Or rather, stuff it somewhere.

[AZLiberty]

The bad state of race relations isn’t because white people have changed.

[Jimmy Valentine]

The Washington Post now claims to have discovered steam.

[greeneyes]

What has changed for me is that I am sick and tired of being called names like: racist, homophobic, nativist.

I am tired of nut jobs ignoring reality and spouting nonsense. These left wing whackos get on TV and spout such nonsense, that I have zero tolerance for any of it.

And I don’t care what color they are or what ethnicity or anything else. I am sick and tired of stupid.

race relations under B.H. Obamma have deteriorated under this baboso.
Quotas and horse crap.

[grobdriver]

Looking at it the wrong way around.

The truth is, negro behavior is getting worse. Inspired and encouraged by 8 years of lawlessness at the highest levels from President to Attorney general(s), the Black Lives Matter movement was born of a lie and grew from there.

Blacks are being killed more by police because they are breaking the law more in a perverted sense of "Whitey owes me" - and isn't that what Obama has been preaching for his entire two terms?

These officers are just doing their jobs, and I'm thankful for it.

Even though this information is still current; the article was written 6 months ago before the election.

It will be more interesting to see how things are 6 months to a year.

[DoodleDawg]

That presupposes that race relations were ever that great to begin with.

Race relations? My son was assaulted in Philadelphia on New Year’s Day by four feral animals. They left him on the street unconscious with two broken orbital bones, a broken nose, and two broken hands and the only thing they took from him was five cigarettes! Needless to say my feelings about race “relations” can’t be printed at this time.

[ronnie raygun]

Well well who’s to blame? certainly not zipper head, barf!

[KC_Conspirator]

That is true.

[P.O.E.]

What’s that spike there around 2009 or so?

[Gay State Conservative]

Of course they're worse...*much* worse.And that came straight from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.Obola,and his AG,knew from the very start that "hands up,don't shoot" *never* happened.Yet they chose to establish "Black Lives Matter" and cause riots nationwide.

Obola and his pals are disciples of Saul Alinsky and Bill Ayers.The 9/11/2001 edition of the NY Times (which hit the streets at about 4AM) features an interview of Bill Ayers in which he clearly states that he had no regrets for setting off all those bombs."I wish we could have done more" was how he was quoted.That's right...9/11.You can't make this stuff up!

Study *their* works and you come to understand Obola,Holder,Lynch,Lewis,etc.

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

I hope your son will be ok.Thats rough.

[Altura Ct.]

That presupposes that race relations were ever that great to begin with.

Indeed. What makes them 'good'? Are they only considered good if whiteS acquiesce and kowtow? Can race relations be good without the Black Caucus, affirmative action, black studies and the plethora of anti-white race groups? Are race relations only considered from a black perspective?

[rb22982]

And it’s not even true. Cops kill more whites than blacks every year.

DoodleDawg for the past few weeks I have been watching a channel with my mom of game shows family feud, let’s make a deal, match game ect. These games shows were televised in the late 70’s early 80’s the African American families and guests on these shows ARE NOTHING like the African Americans of today, they are VERY WELL SPOKEN, the families are quite lovely I grew up with this type of African American family and had forgotten just how different the African American kids were in my high school compared to today!!! It REALLY is just a travesty what the HELL has happened to these communities and their way of thinking!!! The way they speak, dress, and honestly feel EVERYTHING is OWED to them, the education system has BETRAYED these communities taught them NOTHING but HATRED!! What LBJ and the Dems have done over the last 40 years is disgusting and truly makes me sick!!! They however ARE NOT stopping with the African American communities they have destroyed the education system in our own communities and turned our kids into SNOWFLAKES in need of therapy dogs and safe spaces!!!! These BASTARDS are pure EVIL, SOROS needs to be put OUT of this country I don’t know how Trump can accomplish this BUT the head of this snake has to be CUT OFF!!!
