A message for white people:
I know how jarring it may be to hear a non-white person, or maybe anyone, even say the words “white people,” as it can take on a pejorative connotation. That’s fine. This isn’t always comfortable to have to say, but that doesn’t make it any less true, necessary, or timely.
Before I get started, I want to be clear, this is for all white Americans. To my friend, to my foe. To my colleagues, my contemporaries, and my competitors. To the professional athlete and the pee-wee league coach. To my family members. From late night hosts to news anchors, faith leaders to police officers. School teachers, small business owners, and service workers. For allies and detractors, everyone.
I don’t have to waste much of my word count on how Donald Trump has been trying to bring us together… around dividing us into sides. It’s not necessary to explain the ways in which his rhetoric - via speeches at rallies, non-stop tweets, and numerous pieces of policy - has sought to elevate the discourse… to just beneath the floorboards.
There is more than enough coverage on all of that, but what this president has done to you, whether you voted for him or not, is put you into an awkward position that either requires your vocalizing your opposition to separate yourself or gleefully accepts your consent by only requiring you do nothing.
Yes, white people your trial subscription to Donald Trump’s America is over and you have to opt-out or start paying for it.
Sorry, but not sorry, you’re going to have to take a side. And yes, you have to do it now.....

I cannot believe that any Freeper would post such trash as this, ‘white people’ WTF is that suppose to mean??? WE ARE ALL AMERICANS, unless this half witted jerk and the one that posted this thread lost their minds!!!
Free Republic is losing the battle for America with this garbage being allowed to be posted here, and by a ‘so called Veteran’ at that!!!
My people picked their side July 4, 1776.
It was not posted to be praised.

Here’s a message you might want to learn. It’s called “Math”.
Ok.
Side chosen.
Bring it, Buckwheat.
I won't dignify that with an answer other than Go to Hell.
Looked at your profile. I think we must have gone to the same school.
I wouldn’t step foot there, you are already there!!!
I do have white privilege. It’s my privilege to be a descendant of many generations of whites who lived, strove, fought, learned, loved and died.
People post articles from the enemy to keep us all informed. Don’t play the fool.
feh... 
“I do have white privilege. It’s my privilege to be a descendant of many generations of whites who lived, strove, fought, learned, loved and died.”
Me too. Our ancestors also, somehow, have come up an extremely good culture, and I don’t want to see it messed up by a bunch of angry minorities from uncivilized cultures that think we’re the bad guys.
Go to Hell Jarrett!
A good read. Trump is not about race until these people make it.
Typical Democrat tactic, lay your sins at the feet of the opposition. Obama was no divider, or the entire Democrat Party for that matter, they just divided people up into categories. Nothing more divisive than that.
