Dem. Rep: Roy Moore Will 'Harken Us Back to the Days of Segregation'

Alabama Democratic Representative Terri Sewell appeared on ABC News’ “This Week” to discuss the senatorial special election between GOP candidate Roy Moore and Democratic candidate Doug Jones. Rep. Sewell warned voters that Roy Moore will take the state “back to the days of segregation.”

"We who have been proud Alabamians know that we have been trying to overcome our painful past, and this candidate, Roy Moore, will only take us backwards and harken us back to the days of segregation,” Sewell said.

She also added that the people of Alabama “deserve a senator whose character and integrity won’t be in question” adding “there’s no reason to doubt” Moore’s sexual harassment accusers.

It is worth noting similar racial rhetoric regarding a GOP politician was also deployed by Vice President Joe Biden in 2012, when he told a crowd of largely African-American American voters that GOP Presidential candidate Mitt Romney wanted to "put them all back in chains." 

The special election is slated for this Tuesday, December 12th.

In 1969 I,a kids from the suburbs of Boston,reported to Fort Knox,KY for BCT (Basic Training).All but three of the guys in my Company were southern boys (Tennessee,Mississippi and Texas mostly) and only four guys were black.

I saw the situation and,given the reporting of the previous 5 years,I was expecting trouble...BIG trouble.

The funny thing is that there wasn't a *bit* of trouble from the white guys *or* the black guys.

It kinda changed my attitude toward the South.

Some groups want to have their slice of the pie all to themselves while demanding a share of everyone else’s slice of the pie.

Blacks have already begun self-segregating at colleges. Excluding whites in BLM meetings, safe spaces and dormitories.

Stop lying about whites.

The really scarey thing here is this person may really believe this.

What has Moore done to indicate he’d do anything like this?

This is unhinged thinking, and it reveals the kind of challenged folks out there.

I’m not seeking to slander all Blacks charging them with this kind of thinking, but some obviously do.

Sad. Some Whites are also convinced he is a racist. I don’t get it, other than them voicing such things for political gain.

Those that truly think like this, need help.

Bottom line folks. Not one voter in Alabama should cast their vote this coming Tuesday for any one person other then, Judge Roy Moore. A vote cast for Democrat Doug Jones is a wasted vote that will gain black folks nothing at all!!!

White folks, Black folks and Browns folks better get into the real world and realize that the likes of Barack Hussein Obama, Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Deval Patrick, Cory Booker, the Congressional Black Caucus, the NAACP, the entire Democrat Party have done absolutely zilch, zero, nothing, to improve the success and quality of life for millions of African-Americans over the last eight years

In fact, economically, equality & quality wise, Obama and his cult have set Black Americans back...across the board is so many ways they could not all be mentioned herein. POTUS, Donald J. Trump has done more for Black Americans in his ten months in office then Obama did during his eight year failed reign as POTUS.

In addition all Alabamians will suffer misery, crime, poor education, poor job opportunities, loss of freedom & liberty and exposure to crime from both thugs and illegal immigrant felons...who will roam freely among you at will, thanks to your CBC, NAACP, Democrat friends and supposed allies. They are neither!!!

Vote for and support Judge, Roy Moore!!! Go Roy Moore, Go Donald J. Trump....Go MAGA!!!

“They’re trying to paint others, including Moore, with their own sins.”

It’s called projection. Blacks can have a black caucus. Blacks can have a black fraternity or sorority. Blacks can have a black club. None of that is segregation.

When somebody does something that doesn’t work anymore, they don’t try something new. They try doing the same thing, only louder and harder.

From voter intimidation to race baiting. Time to take this old dog out to the woods and give him a mercy shot. He can’t learn any new tricks.

Where have you been? It's from an L.A. Times article back in September. The left brought it up again last week. The quote from the Times was: “I think it was great at the time when families were united — even though we had slavery — they cared for one another…. Our families were strong, our country had a direction.”
That quote, which was taken fully out of context, gleefully excerpted out of a Moore speech, and repeated ad infinitum by the enemies of America, was fully responded to (although you never hear about the responses, do you? Of course not. Only the enemies of MAGA like to repeat them!):

Roy Moore’s purported comments that America was last ‘great’ under slavery go viral

Vox reached out to Hannah Ford, deputy campaign manager for Moore, and asked her if Moore really thought the last time America was “great” was when it still had slavery.

Ford was quoted by Vox as saying: "To suggest such is recklessly malicious. Judge Moore clearly made his point: America is great when our families are united, as in the husband and wife committed to each other and raising their children to be good citizens."

Moore has been a champion of civil rights.
