NYT, MSNBC's Mara Gay: 'Disturbing' to see 'dozens of American flags' on trucks in Long Island
Fox News ^ | 6.8.2021 | Brandon Gillespie

New York Times board member: There needs to be conversation about 'Whiteness'. MSNBC contributor Mara Gay said Tuesday that she was "disturbed" to see "dozens of American flags" flown by Donald Trump supporters during a weekend trip to Long Island, New York. The left-wing editorial board member for The New York Times was also distressed by what she called expletives on the trucks against President Biden, describing the flag-flying Trump supporters as sending a clear message: "This is my country … not your country. I own this."

Like the story of the Princess and the Pea; if the slightest thing is perceived to be wrong by certain people who have been treated extremely well by America, then nothing is right with the country. I think of Michelle Obama, who went to Princeton and Harvard Law School, yet failed the Illinois Bar Exam (the pass rate is 90 percent, You almost have to TRY to do this), was hired by one of the Top Five law firms in Chicago, reportedly complained constantly about not being given enough ‘responsibility”, got a $ 300K plus job doing “public relations” for some city hospital, lived in the White House, had the title of First Lady and she still is not happy. Contrast that to the Vietnam warriors, who went there often at 18-19, lived in the swamps, often times did not come back or suffered disabling wounds, and never once complained. What a contrast to this sniveling, complaining, small in every way ‘celebrity”.

I’m sure she has enough CRAZY flags hanging on her to warrant a rubber room. ‘Journalism’ has become the occupation crazy people choose to live out their delusions.

More or less, yeah. If you are disturbed by public displays of affection for our flag, however long you have been here and wherever you you were born - you're just visiting.

If you are “disturbed” by the American flag, then by all means get out of the country...

The problem for black women is two fold

Not enough black Johnsons come with responsible brains

Black women are simply not the worlds most universal sought after beauty despite some being very beautiful and way too many are very fat

I think it’s why they are bitter and angry and many nowadays go lebesian...

If you’re a black woman of normal black means your prospects of marriage and love and the white picket fence is diminished today

Before the Civil Rights Great Society era ...it was still less reachable than for white women but attainable for 75% of them...now it’s a fantasy completely out of reach...

So they are bitter

Take Mara here....fancy education...nice AA job....not ugly by any means...yet prospects with a black mate are not great....and if she goes for a Wood shes not authentic ...

Today the fashion is to blame white people for black behavior ...rather than blacks for their own undoings

“There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs — partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.”
― Booker T. Washington

Manhattan is the ‘real world’ to socialists. black racists, commies, thugs, anarchists, marxists etc. I worked in Midtown at Rock Center for 11yrs, back in the 70s and early 80s, and saw more of them than I could even count. Like maggots on a carcass, they were everywhere.

Yeah, because she probably saw all the sharks trailing her.

You know, the ones that still remember being fed dead African slaves on the slave trade route?

If she wants to get triggered, go west in New York State instead of Long Island and check out those flags.

The first time I took my new husband (from CA) home to visit my family we landed in Buffalo. He was shocked because leaving the airport property we saw trucks with Confederate Flags, and country music blaring. We see more Confederate Flags in western NY than we ever see in TN.

Interesting flag. Can’t say I’ve ever kicked someone of any race to the ground.

You’re exactly right. I feel very happy when I see an American flag.

Perhaps she drove through my neighborhood. Lots of flags the past two weekends. And bunch of them were flown by non-whites. Indians, whose skin color is darker than yours and Asians were proudly flying the flag.

Yes, lets have that conversation about color, Mara. Your view about skin color and people who want to be patriotic is ignorant.

Big media is disturbed to see people who have different opinions than the ones they are told to have.
