Ping!

[Buckeye McFrog]

And unlike Drew Brees I don’t think she’ll be apologizing.

[Navin Johnson]

Candace really dug down deep in that rant and it’s obviously stinging all of the race pimps. I was proud of her being so courageous and honest in her remarks.

[adorno]

You can’t speak the truth when liberals are listening.

When a black man (or woman) is the victim of police brutality, you can’t speak about their criminal history, no matter how short or long that history is.

IF AMERICA survives, she needs to be on the One Hundred Dollar Bill.

[Savage Rider]

I don’t often watch long videos, but this one kept my attention. She made some good points and I would like to think she expresses the thoughts of a majority of people. My takeaway ... pick better heroes for yourself.

[Truth29]

Bestill my beating heart. She must be made of stainless steel to withstand all who would destroy her. She is a beacon to all blacks who want to get off the Democrat plantation.

She

Is

Brilliant.

I wish my ignorant young family members would open their minds to her message

The simple fact is that George Floyd was not a martyr or hero, but an involuntary victim of police misconduct. Nor was his case a typical example of everyday police behavior, but a one-in-three-million anomaly.

When Trump ran for president, someone in the media, or some group, said we are now living in the "post-truth" era, citing Trump's penchant for shoot-from-the-hip rhetoric which often misstates or exaggerates facts, or is imprecise or over-generalized.

Setting aside the fact that deconstructionism - which de-emphasizes the idea of objective truth in favor of a view in which truth is simply a matter of power relationships and self-interest - is now the primary intellectual model of the LEFT, the mainstream media repeatedly and almost unanimously present a wildly inaccurate depiction of events, especially events that directly or indirectly involve Donald Trump.

Advancing a political and social narrative has replaced the search for truth, and pesky facts are either ignored or shouted-down and censored. Candace Owens' simple statements of fact are among those views that will be shouted-down.

Candace Owens a real thinker.

[Steve_Seattle]

I don't recall his name, but there is an older, left-wing black man who is usually paired with Candace Owens to debate issues on Fox News.

It gets heated sometimes, and I have to hit the mute button, but I was shocked the other night when he was extremely angry at the turn the protests have taken - the rioting and looting and violence. I give him credit for not trying to justify any of it, as so many on the left - both black and white - have been doing.

I’d like to see her team up with the Cameroon women
who was giving the protesters a piece of her mind a couple days back.

[PGR88]

Blacks are dupes of the Left. The over half-century long message of inescapable racism and oppression, lack of agency, and dependence have created a firm (and even violent) bloc for the Left.

[Mr. N. Wolfe]

“I wish my ignorant young family members would open their minds to her message.”

You’re not alone. Most of my family is hard left. Life can be difficult.

‘Woman’

Darn bouncing 5 ton truck

[princess leah]

I would love to see her on the ticket in 2024 or when Don Jr runs-there, I said it!

[Moorings]

A fine American that Candace Owens!

She is very brave to speak the truth on social media. We all know how the democrat/progressive/liberals react when someone effectively overturns their narrative.

Especially this narrative that they have really got going to help them in an election.

Democrats have invested a lot in the looting, arson, destruction, violence and mayhem to help them in the election, using black folks supplemented with their antifa goons.

As I posted elsewhere. ..What all this has done is give my hub & I a litmus test for our soon to be updated Will. You support BLM and/or think the US Constitution needs “updating”? We won’t insult you by giving you any ill gotten white man’s money or property. (Recent conversation with 20s/30s old family members brought us to this realization.)
