Usually this kind of story comes out during Republican administrations.
It would have been nice to actually point out the facts of the case instead of droning on for 1,000 words about racism.
What the Tuohys did with their pretend adoption was wrong, but it was not racism.
No way, a negro complaining…
Scott Adams is correct.
Tha poor old guy.
How did the Tuohys exploit Oher???? They paid for college,a tutor through college and he ended up with some stability and went on to have a dream job with 34 million attached to it.....He had numerous siblings....Did they all get the same chances???The only difference between oher and his siblings is THE TUOHY’S.......
Indeed.
They saved his life and gave him a life that he wouldn’t have otherwise.
Damned if you do and damned if you don’t.
Its not getting hit in the head that causes violence.
If everyone who got hit in the head went violent, ..
But they don’t.
As a demographic blacks are more violent than other races. Its more of an IQ issue and how their bell curve is. The less intelligent you are, the more likely people are to regard violence as an acceptable solution to conflict/issues. Also the more likely they are to misunderstand something in a conversation as an insult and escalate offthat.
They forget we all bleed red
“Racism has never been or will ever be Black people’s problem to solve, given that we didn’t create it nor do we continue to control and refine it. It’s on white people to shut racism down.”
And yet most of the crimes involving different races are being committed by blacks. There is total delusion among many blacks that they are not capable of committing hate crimes, but the statistics say otherwise. This is why we can’t have a rational discussion of racial issues with blacks because far too many of them think they’re the victim when in many cases they’re the perpetrators of racial strife in this country.
Deadspin is one of the worst scum sucking far left propaganda spewers out there. Do not waste your time.
Besides... how many Black people speak out about the misogyny and violence in rap?
What would that movie look like?

You got an official DNC Race Card there, “Carron”?
I am sure the Tuohys will think long and hard about it before they befriend another member of Eternally Oppressed & Offended race again.
There doesn’t seem to be much luck when adopting across racial lines.
I don’t see it as racism at all. I see it as pure greed on the Touhys’ part. From the movie, Oher got 20%. Dad, Mom and the two Touhy kids each got 20%. To me, thats naked, shameless greed. We’ll never know; but now that we’ve seen how they operate, I think they’d have screwed over a poor white kid just as bad as they did Michael. It was in their hearts. They own 50+ fast food restaurants and ritzy homes all over, but they shamelessly hogged up 80% of the movie profits. GREED, regardless of race.
The writer (and many conservatives) are missing the point. This is about “white leftism.”
It’s about that movie. (I didn’t read the book.) That movie is a cringe-fest.
Oher didn’t like the way he was portrayed in that movie. I don’t blame him.
The movie is a white leftist’s dream. Conservatives should be slamming that movie.
In interviews, Oher says the Tuohys and other families helped him by giving him a place to stay. But, he didn’t consider himself a victim.
He said he was an athlete before the Tuohys met him, yet Hollywood portrayed him as a simpleton.
For example, watch this scene where Mrs. Tuohy teaches him about football: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-dUSx5ndh4
Tell me you all didn’t cringe at that scene. And that’s just one example.
The actress herself sees black people as victims. Here she is, teary-eyed, with her point of view: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/fUR_VOF8_uY
Thank you for saying exactly what I was thinking.
