I care not.

If the governor of Virginia and the Prime Minister of Canada can blackface, they so can the rest of us.

Chopping up unborn babies alive in the womb... very, very good.

Smearing charcoal on your face... very, very bad.

Here we see TV star Ted Danson denouncing these racist students.
(Yes, that’s him. And as you can tell, Whoopi approves.)

Her face sure doesn't say "offended".

Much too much read into the black face stuff. Not a big deal. It wasn't personal. Just more cr** to deal with.

Oh, The HORROR

Sad what counts as “news” today

Meanwhile, crime, HIV, illegal immigration and corruption continue unabated.

And unreported

When a prominent liberal does blackface, it is - at most - a minor misstep. No big deal. Let’s all move in now.

But for anyone else, blood must flow.

Would it be racist?
For a black person?
To wear whiteface?

If it was a school-sponsored weekend function—football game, homecoming—I suppose the school has to care. If not, it is none of their business.

Is everybody realize how idiotic we have become? High school students do something dumb and we’re not even sure what it is and yet it makes national news? Our country has gone insane

Let me get this straight:

I can mangle my genitals and call myself a woman, and this is a protected right.

But God help me if I darken my skin and call myself a Black guy.

Would I get half credit if I manled my genitals, darkened my skin and called myself a Black woman?

Tell me why it’s racist. The reason is that anything a White says or does, or doesn’t say or doesn’t do, is automatically branded racist.
