You'd have thought after 8 long years of Obama, "people" would ease up on the racism charge a bit. After they played the r-card 24/7 the whole time and it didn't get anywhere. But, Leftists are single-minded and rage-filled. Whatever!
Then of course the CNN commentator had to show her commie card. We should encourage MORE billionaires, and those people on the Main Street should strive to become one of those billionaires.
She looks around at the Progressive/ leftist/ Godless/ Democrats circle-of-her-friencds-and-associates and decides America is rooted in racism.
Well, yes, HER Amerika *IS* rooted in racism.
My goodness, it’s so horrible that you would expect a lot of these people to leave. None of them ever do.
(Basement Bungler Joe has NOT got a chance.)
PLAY BALL!
Enthusiasms!
i am reminded of the board room scene in untouchables with deniro as capone... and the baseball bat treatment...
Liberia is open.
No evil honkies there.
Their ancestors being slaves here was the best thing to ever happen for them.
What percent of freed Negroes went to Liberia?
All human beings are racist to one degree or another. Meanwhile, the US understands that people need to be restrained by laws, which means our system of government is the most anti-racist in the world. This is especially true after the elimination of Jim Crow laws and the Civil Rights act.
If you are looking for racism, just got to any other country and you will find it in spades. i.e. the whole premise of America being racist is a false premise.
“rooted in racism”
A couple pounds of cotton and a couple pounds of tobacco per consumer per year is a small part of the economy.
Assuming they take all of Whitey’s money, which they will surely do if they get into power, and they eliminate Whitey, they will still keep saying that America is a racist country. It will never stop. There is no redemption. There is no forgiveness, ever.
In reality, no country is racist. Individuals can be racist, or not racist. A country cannot have that attribute. In reality, there is no collective guilt based on race. There is individual guilt. In reality, there is no raced-based claim to retribution.
Yes, and in the current situation in our sanctuary cities,that would not be over kill.A few mayors come to mind.
“It is a nation that stole the land from indigenous people.”
My part of Florida was swamp 100 years ago.
Much of the eastern US was uninhabited dense forest.
Most Indian tribes survived by fishing and by farming a few acres. Hunters had a hard time getting through thick forests. Buffalos out west had to be chased on foot until white people brought horses from Europe.
Even today, most of the oceans aren’t owned.
One black barber bought 10 houses in DC at about $10000 each during 1960s blockbusting.
Only three of the 20 or so houses on my street are owned through inheritance.
Most homeowners got what they got from their own efforts.
CNN is rooted in racism and needs to be vaporized.
About 40 years ago Republicans wanted to privatize public housing.
The inhabitants were not interested.
My father used to say that. Had they been left in Africa..and I am NOT saying it was good they were enslaved....but more likely than not they or their family lines would be killed off, starved to death, or worse by now in that war and disease ravaged country.
When Liberia was founded in the 19th century, it was very hard to find black Americans who wanted to go there. Probably a lot of it was fear of early death—colonization ventures notoriously saw a high death rate in their early years. The only world they knew was America. I have run across at least one case of a slave being offered freedom if he would then emigrate to Liberia but preferring to remain a slave in America.
