More liberal pc crap from the professional ‘I am offended’ crowd.

The only way to shut them up is to confront them in their idiocy. When confronted, they tend to back down. They succeed because they think others are afraid to confront them.
After all, Perry used the word ‘racist’ so she assumes that that should give her cover from any criticism.

The ultimate racist!
The only hope that all the exploited blacks have left is Rap, drugs, muggings, car-jacking, arson and the knockout game!

Melissa's modern-day "hard workers" heading off to a hard day's work, I'm sure.Are you suggesting that muggings at the mall and flash robberies isn't hard work?

Abigail Adams, wife of John the president, was an early advocate of both women's suffrage and slavery abolition. It would hard to find anyone from that era from any country who had more progressive credentials.
Still, she wrote about the slaves that were landscaping the first White House lawn and grounds that a whole crew of 6 worked so leisurely the whole afternoon and still accomplished less than a couple of stout New Englanders could do in two hours.
Makes sense when you think about it and has nothing to do with color since their compensation was nothing other than room and board and little or no hope for anything more. So naturally, they worked just enough to get by.

She went to Wake Forest and Duke. But I bet she doesn’t really know what a Tar Heel is.

because I actually keep an image of folks working in cotton fields on my office wall, because it is a reminder about what hard work looks like. and I actually keep images on my office wall of incredibly brutal rape-murders to remind me what the face of New Africa looks like...
...and all descriptions are NOT in cursive...

So naturally, they worked just enough to get by. Human nature. It's the same end result you get with socialism, aptly described by the Russians under Soviet rule - "We pretend to work, and they pretend to pay us."

After the Battle of Cullodan. The British passed The Transportation Act. This sent able bodied Scots to North Carolina to work as Slaves in the pits making pitch for hulls of His Majestie’s Ships. The tar would turn their heels black.

She should set an example by giving up all her wealth and becoming a “slave” in the hood.
What a snob, telling colored folks what they should be offended by.

I work hard to pay taxes to pay for programs for those who do not work.....
Then i am called racist for working hard by an advocate for those who do not work...
Maybe if all the working americans just stopped working hard and got on the dole .......
But then who would do the racist hard work????????

The word "racist" is a progressive dog whistle alert to suppress conservatives. The only people alive who get beat up with the 'racist' ugly stick are christian conservatives. Progressives have antibodies to the word racist and use it freely to beat up conservatives.
hard work means you aren't a shiftless progressive and progressives hate being reminded that they are shiftless thieves.
Don't take the bait and think they mean what they say - they are just trying to get a rise out of conservatives since it is proven that the word racist sets of alarms of panic and fear in most Republicans.
