Kamala Harris: ‘The Life of a Black Person in America Has Never Been Treated as Fully Human’
Breitbart - Politics ^ | 8-27-2020 | Haris Alic

Posted on 08/27/2020 3:18:11 PM PDT by Sir Napsalot

Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) argued on Thursday, regarding Jacob Blake’s shooting by Wisconsin police, that black lives have never “been treated as fully human” in America.

Harris, the Democrat vice-presidential nominee, made the remark in a speech that was billed as a pre-rebuttal to President Donald Trump’s appearance at the Republican National Convention. The California lawmaker, in particular, argued recent events, including Blake’s shooting and the death of George Floyd in police custody, had exposed the difficult realities facing many of the country’s citizens.

“The reality is that the life of a black person in America has never been treated as fully human,” Harris said. “We have yet to fulfill that promise of equal justice under the law.”

Remember last day of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris’ DNC theme?

Unity!

Who and how are they expect unity from ‘the other side’ with inflammatory rhetoric like such?

Blah blah blah. Are blacks responsible in any way for ‘race relations’?

You could reasonably say,

“The Life of a Black Person ANYWHERE Has Never Been Treated as Fully Human”

And you could also reasonably say,

“The Life of a Black Person in America Has Been Better Than Anywhere Else”

which is why they don’t leave.

Well, then. That makes her the perfect sidekick for Joe Biden, yes?

I know you agree.

That’s true. Blacks are viewed as superhuman. A cut above. A black person who fights with cops, shoots at them, but is killed or injured in response, is viewed as a victim of racism. Blacks are part of the samurai class, to be venerated and groveled before by non-black peasants.

Of course not!!!! That is why we had a black president, two black Attorney Generals, two Secretaries of State, a black woman as a candidate for VP, and untold black members of congress and mayors and etc. Any fool can see this.

Not only ‘Not-American-Black-At-All’, but grew up in a relatively privileged, educated environment, with an ancestral history of slave ownership.

(Has she ever even addressed that slave-owner thingie? Will any spineless ‘journalist’ ever ask her about it?)
