"I have never had an African American come up to me and have any problem with it whatsoever," said Schneider, 60, who added that "the whole politically correct generation has gotten way out of hand."

Schneider went on to call the series, which was set in fictional Hazzard County, Georgia, "a unifying force."

Rules! He's better looking now than then! But, it might just be MY 60 year old eyes. ;)

IIRC doesn’t Bubba Watson own one of the cars used in the series and he painted over the flag on the roof a few years back?

exactly they move to the south where I am and then complain about a monument which has stood for over a 100 years but vote for a party which did slavery. These people are either ignorant, or hypocritical. Anyway you look at it this crap is all about an election to cover up their crimes.

A gorgeous white woman. Something else rarely seen on TV these days.

Black activists are a small minority of black Americans IMO but the lying media makes them seem like every black person in the country.
................................................
I have made the exact same point here and in discussions with many friends and relatives. I think there are roughly 40 million black Americans, but I’d be surprised if there are even a million who have been running amok in our Democrat-run cities. In other words, .025 percent of the black population is successfully “blackmailing” hundreds of thousands of gullible Americans of all races. Pitiful how easily they’ve managed to dupe so many gullible people!

I see some mighty attractive ones on Fox News, but that’s the only TV I watch.

Thank you. I very much agree with your post with this exception, I would put 99% of the blame for duping and blackmailing America on the media and Dem politicians. The thugs and thieves in the street are just doing what thugs and thieves do when opportunity presents itself.

Yes, you have focused like a laser beam on the crux of the problem.

All this has nothing to do with slavery. The dems are trying to get a response out of Trump that they use on the campaign trail.
