George Stephanopoulos asks Ben Carson whether it's appropriate for President Trump to give his RNC acceptance speech on August 27th in Jacksonville, given that date is the 60th anniversary of "Ax Handle Saturday" in that city, in which KKK members beat a largely black group of civil rights protesters.

Carson says that we need to "grow up" and stop being offended by everything. Invited to comment, Stacey Abrams calls Ben Carson's comment "fairly infantile."

Then why are >you< offended at every little thing?

How would liberals react if a pundit of pallor called something Stacey Abrams said “infantile?”

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

Juneteenth?

Ax Handle Saturday?

I can’t keep up with all these new Hallmark Holidays.

Every day is the anniversary of something. Trump should have kept the Juneteenth day and celebrated the Republican victory over Democrat slave owners.

I sincerely hope “black America” (whatever/whomever that means) is paying attention to this.

Dr. Carson’s background is well-documented, as is his success despite all the odds. Does Ms. Abrams really think she can “compare” to this?

Infantile as in infant Siamese twins who had their brains separated successfully by Dr Carson.

I’ve never heard of “Axe Handle Saturday” or “Juneteenth”...

[SkyDancer]

True that!

“Ax Handle Saturday”

How many of these BS blank blank days to they have ready.
who the hell ever heard of axe handle Saturday? And the correlation is in insulting act of desperation.

Stacey needs to hit the Slimfast. She looks like she's been eating too many Aunt Jemima pancakes.

‘Ax Handle Saturday’. Hmmmm. If I had to pick a new personal holiday for myself.........

[butlerweave]

She’s just another Private Citizen and she hates it

[VeniVidiVici]

Good lord. I’m sure the Blacks that live in JAX never heard of “Ax Handle” BS

[Paladin2]

Trump is NOT a Democrat celebrating ‘Rat things.

That’s all on the Georgia Governator.

I’ll go with the brain surgeon on this one.

[plain talk]

Every day is an anniversary of something that might offend somebody. I doubt many people even knew about “ax handle Saturday”.

The DNC probably has somebody whose job is to determine all these past events and make up a story about how an RNC event will somehow offend somebody.

[VeniVidiVici]

Aunt Jemima calling a brain surgeon “infantile”.

Who is funding this stupid ugly creature?
What is her job ?
Has This con artist ever been employed ?
I thought she owed back taxes ?
She is not qualified to be a dog catcher .

This pathetic fool of a woman projects her failings onto others.
