Writer is an idiot.
I had a different, overused word come to my mind, but idiot will work for now.
His commentary reminds me of the people who hate folks because they're Jewish but SWEAR they're just anti-Zionist. Oh, and some of their best friends are Jewish. Uh huh.
On a daily basis, I see people of all colors, shapes and sizes. I work with them. Many of them are my friends. A few are what I'd call "family." What Fred seems to have missed, is that most people (excepts racists and leftists...pardon the redundancy) pick their friends on the basis of their heart. If Bob or Mary happens to be black, yellow, or plaid, so be it.
You want to see REAL trouble getting people to commingle? Go to Western Europe.
Yes, America has her problems. But America is the only place where racial harmony exists on any meaningful level.
Relations were improving until 2009 when the left started creating divisions where they didn't exist. That drew out of the woodwork all sorts of vermin, who are emboldened and now let their freak flag fly proudly.
Against that backdrop, Trump built a rainbow coalition. That scared the racists who fight back on many fronts...but they're not racists. They'll PROMISE you that...and some of their best friends are ____.
I fully support free speech and do not with to criminalize "hate speech" so that, among other things, folks like Fred can self-identify as idiots.
Thank you for taking your little stick and stirring the potk. this quorum is about discussion not about feelings.. feelings mean nothing, and no one cares.
Agreed.
