Arizona Democratic gubernatorial candidate Katie Hobbs was a student leader at her Catholic preparatory high school when pupils took part in a yearly tradition known as ‘Slave Day.’

Copies from past yearbooks of Seton Catholic Preparatory High School were obtained by DailyMail.com and appear to show the practice went on for nearly four decades and was last mentioned in a yearbook from 1997.

You’re conflating various actions.

Not playing their game means not calling out asinine “vices” that really aren’t that big a deal. Like this. Accepting their false premises as the focus rather than arguing it really is false. You can call out their hypocrisy, sure, but that is about all. So what they had slave day? Or had blackface? Who cares? Why is that an executable offense? Seriously, that attitude has gone haywaire the last 2 years and we are not better for pushing that same stupid, petty, paranoid narrative.

As opposed to ignoring genuine legal and security threats such as charming Hunter Biden.

You are completely playing defense and that is guaranteed to lose.

The hunter biden was just an obvious easy one. But also go after Joe’s entire family. Make them pay the price of using Lawfare against Trump and Pro-Life people. Show them both can do that. Until they see it happening to them they won’t care one bit about your high horse.

My Jr. High had a slave day in the 70’s. It was in PE class.

Strangely enough, we didn't do a slave day at Jefferson Davis Jr. High...

She has no business holding any government position. She might qualify as a checker at the grocery store.

Checker, maybe.

I don't think she could lead her way out of a paper bag.

Grocery bagger? No.

Did you ever recover from the trauma?

I noticed that within the context of "slave day" you said "got to" rather than "had to". lol.

OH...so it's nothing then? Did she EVER come out to explain and apologize for it?
To me it's just ANOTHER example of the COMMIES doing what they want when they wanted to and NEVER get called on it.
Whether it was 30yrs or 30wks they just don't care.
Look how they are crucifying H. Walker..that was YEARS AGO but for the LEFT it's never about HOW LONG AGO it was...it's about the EVENT...SO it's the same for them also!

This is one of the dumbest stories I’ve seen in ages. I you are talking about what some clown did in HS, you might as well hang it up.

Frankly so what.

It's the hypocrisy that is relevant. As the times change, so do the social mores. What was once just a gag, is now offensive to the ruling elites.

Sick of wearing straitjackets because everything offends SOMEbody.

I agree, but I enjoy when Dems get hoisted on their on petards. It's poetic justice when they get a taste of their own medicine.

> Hobbs has been found being racists with employees 2 separate times while in office.

That may be the reasoning behind this “slave day” story. This can be used as cover for her true transgressions.
I imagine the “Here they go again!” headlines are already written.

Had we been able to stay 6 more months, I would have started at Nathan B. Forrest High School...

Tell that to Blasey-Ford and the democrats on the judiciary committee. If the country can come to a screeching halt over how much beer an accomplished federal judge drank in high school, then it’s only fair that we take the time to examine this story.

It’s just another example of how the left has been beating us in elections over the last 30 years. The ends justify the means to them while we try to behave like the adults in the room. By not letting them get away with this hypocrisy, we’re also pointing out how ridiculous and childish their behavior is. Think of it as “tough love.” 🤣
