[Barf Alert] Black Catholics laud Harris pick; others scrutinize past record

"This is headline news. It's the first of its kind," said Dominican Father Aniedi Okure, executive director of the Africa Faith and Justice Network, about the choice of Harris, the first Black vice presidential nominee of a major political party.

===============================================================================================================

"I was so elated. We, the community, need good news, and this was just wonderful," said Donna Toliver Grimes, associate director of African American affairs in the U.S. bishops' Secretariat of Cultural Diversity in the Church. "She wasn't my top candidate in the primaries, and she wasn't my top pick for vice president," she added, but after considering the announcement, "she's really deserving and brings a lot to the table."

So the daughter of a mother from India and a father from Jamaica who grew up in Canada really reflects and understands the black American experience. That’s like saying the son of an Kenyan father and a white mom who raised him in Indonesia...oh, never mind.

Well that wasn't exactly a ringing endorsement by the one black catholic they managed to dredge up....

Did you miss the part about the black Catholic priest?

And did you miss the part where the black woman works for the USCCB?

Kamala said USSC Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation was a “sham” and “disgrace,” .... “that it denied justice to every survivor of sexual assault.

Then, why the rats in charge of California and Kamal Harris did not and will not fund the DNA testing of thousands of DNA/ID rape kit in California while Kamal was our state AG

“Re Unprocessed DNA/ID rape kits in California while Kamala Harris was the state AG!”

“Kamala Harris protected a lot rapists while serving as California’s AG! By not funding to run those DNA/Rape Id kits

If she had done her job as our state AG, there would not be hundreds if not thousands of DNA/ID rape Kits not processed due to quote lack of funding.

Maybe some females in California and the nation can bring this scandal forward after Kamala conveniently forgot about them.

For someone, who had taken an oath to uphold, support, and defend the Constitution throughout her professional career, 2020 Democratic presidential contender Sen. Kamala Harris tends to, in the words of constitutionalist and talk host Mark Levin, “treat it like a smorgasbord,” picking the parts she likes and ignoring the parts she doesn’t.

Like not funding to process/id maybe thousands of Rape ID Kits in California while serving as the state’s highest ranking law enforcement person, the state’s former AG, Kamala!

Will she be even better as our Vice President?

It was disgusting to see many hypocritical Catholics vote for Obama, and now some of these morons will vote for Biden. Abortion and Marxism go hand in hand.

Articles like this are why when I see those I'm Catholic and I Vote bumper stickers, I'm never quite sure whether it's good thing or not.

President Trump needs to turn the BLM movement propaganda against them. Do we want to put Dirty Cop Harris in charge who is known to put blacks in jail for petty crimes. This issue can be pushed without the back lash.

It will have legs.

This is a classic example of media posting ambigous headlines. They know that most people rarely look past the headline. I could just as easily say “Mexican Catholics laud Harris pick; others scrutinize past record...or Asian Catholics laud Harris pick; others scrutinize past record.....or Native Americans Catholics laud Harris pick; others scrutinize past record....or European Catholics laud Harris pick; others scrutinize past record. Each headline is true very bias and misleading.
