To be clear, I am not in any way excusing or condoning the use of blackface in any era. It’s insensitive, horrific, and it should be condemned, but if someone honestly doesn’t see a moral difference between preying on children and a politically-incorrect party-gone-WAAAAAY-wrong ...

I'm tired of the virtue signalling. I don't care about blackface at all. I find the old minstrel show concept quite interesting. Do you feel differently? Fine. Welcome to America. My non-horror of blackface is protected under the First Amendment. Don't expect me to apologize. Have a nice day.

Ace reporters at the Virginian-Pilot of Norfolk unearthed the bad news for Northam:
EVMS alumni indicated that when Northam attended, students personally selected and submitted their own yearbook photos.

Which makes perfect sense-----how would the school have gotten Northam's pictures unless he personally had a hand in it?

And why would the school put the blackface picture on Northam's yearbook page if ....as he says....it wasnt him?

It seems to be way past time for non leftists to apply Alisnky’s Rules for Radicals #”s 4, 8 and 13: 4Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules, 8) Keep the pressure on (Kick the enemy when he’s down) and 13)Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. Do we want to continue to concede the moral high ground to the left and continue to lose to them. I hope Northam stays in the Governor’s Mansion, providing a personification of the evil of the left to take potshots at continuously for the next three years.

...I'm tired of the virtue signalling....

Ditto here. The reactions of people in their feigned indignity is sickening. People have their "breath taken away" or are "brought to tears." This thought policing is dangerous stuff.

>> I don't care about blackface at all. <<<

To paraphrase Lynyrd Skynyrd, blackface gate does not bother me. Does your conscience bother you? Tell the truth...
