Full title was Michelle Rodriguez Says Liam Neeson Can’t Be Racist Because Of the Way He Kissed Viola Davis in ‘Widows’

[Da Coyote]

Yes, folks. They ARE that stupid.

[mbarker12474]

Jesus cannot come soon enough. Seriously, what is he waiting for.

[BenLurkin]

Does that mean that just because Rodriguez kissed Vin Diesel in Fast and Furious that she somehow isn’t a pervert?

[RoosterRedux]

Liam Neeson had a moment of completely understandable temporary insanity.

There is not ONE HUMAN who has not had one.

[Leaning Right]

Virginia governor Ralph Northam needs to find a picture of him kissing a black woman. And he had better do it pronto. Then all will be forgiven.

[Glad2bnuts]

If the desire to kill is a sign of racism, all humans are racist.

[BenLurkin]

I think it’s a publicity stunt.

[mass55th]

You’ll kiss a pig’s ass if you’re paid enough to do it.

[JewishRighter]

Well there it is: we now have a method of innoculation against the charge of racism: kiss a black woman/man and its all good after that.

[EdnaMode]

He should call Mad Maxine for a photo op.

[Mr. K]

Plus his politics are ‘correct’.

Like Bill Clinton, it was ok that he was a rapist because he stood for “women’s issues”. (rape not being one of them, I guess)

[AppyPappy]

Plenty of slave owners did more than kiss their slaves

[RoosterRedux]

You might be right, but that's usually not Neeson's style.

He's a pretty low-key guy.

[ETCM]

Yes, folks. They ARE that stupid.

Indeed. Racism has nothing to do with finding someone physically attractive. If that were the case, I guess all the slave owners who had sex with their slaves are now cleared? In Michelle Rodriguez' empty head, that's proof that they are not racist!

[Intolerant in NJ]

So now you can get anti-racist points for certain activities? - who knew - how ‘bout if you hired three blacks, served as a thesis supervisor for one and included one as co-author of any article you published? - should be good for something.......

[Pearls Before Swine]

Oh, it’s the “cleansing kiss,” like kissing a frog or a princess. So, following along here, if Va. Governor Rotham is seen kissing a black woman, he’s absolved of his black face episode?

[colorado tanker]

So, he gets a Liberal Pass? Like the Virginia Dems want?

[Paco]

Well when you think about all of the potential people who've were dumb enough to wear black face, they're trying to cover their bases. Ted Danson immediately comes to mind...he wore black face with Whoopi at one time if memory serves - since he was more than kissing Whoopi I guess he gets a pass.

I think this whole black face stuff is BS anyways. Their over the top political correctness is backfiring and aiming directly at them. This madness needs to stop.

Liam Neeson had a moment of completely understandable temporary insanity.

Can't understand why he would say what he did. Thinking it is one thing, stating it in public forum is another.
