Threatening to kill US citizens must not have polled as well Trump thought it would.
I took Jones' comments to be critical of those who don't think race plays a role in politics - he literally calls out "post-race, colorblind" dems. You don't agree?
Did y'all know that Bernie Sanders voted for the crime bill? Can we all acknowledge that fact so RJ doesn't mention it in every third post due to some weird Pavlovian shit? Its like Brad with Stacey Abrams at this point.

The degree of MLK whitewashing on the Internet today is....a lot.
That comparison doesn't track because Biden *wrote* the fucking crime bill and held other legislation hostage to get the crime bill passed.Like MHB, Townie, MDMH and other extremist Lwers bringing up Biden's crime bill vote? I notice you don't say anything about that.
I saw somebody post a list of MLK quotes white people never use. I'll post it here if I run across them.
I've been mostly avoiding the news and this board for the last week or two because it makes me depressed and angry, mainly because I believe this country is fucked beyond repair.
That being said this shit is insane, but not remotely surprising. Yang's tweet below really nailed it for me. The public backlash of anger and violence was overdue. Racially and economically this country is so fucking crooked and backwards its really hard to comprehend. And what makes it worse is that our leaders to try to pretend that it is not.
I don't know how we come back from this. There's going to be a lot of the blood the next couple of years. The non-ruling class have been getting manhandled for too long. Systematic racism and class warfare will be rebuked in the streets, not at the ballot.
I know I lectured you a month ago about seeing the positive side of human nature, and while I maintain that people are inherently good, I’ve come around to your perspective on this country. It’s irrevocably flawed and beyond hope for redemption at this point save for revolution, I fear. Things are gonna get real bad, real soon and with good reason.
Who the hell would just lift a TV in broad daylight? That's fucked up, especially about the mom getting beat down. If I'm Sam's Club I'm settling that one before I get any more press.
I'm white, so I don't understand what it's like to be a black man in America and I am pretty fucking sure I'd personally don't want to have that feeling. But I sure as hell can see we might be beyond the tipping point where this just turns into rage across the country.
