Funny that you think this is worse than the neo Nazis and KKK guys chanting Trumps name and supporting him.

Then again, shouldn't be surprised that a Trump voter is racist.

Yeah because it is so easy to see the world from their perspective. 

 

You don't need to see the perspective of someone to know that a completely idiotic statement is stupid.

[Adam]

You can disagree with someone and concede that their experiences likely shape their views, and sympathize with them.

I'm guessing no one is or has ever made Craig Hodges work the cotton fields. His comment is completely without merit, and he didn't cite a single example.

 

I have less than zero sympathy for people who cry racism without facts to back it up.

All the commentary you have on here sort of indicates you have zero sympathy for and complete disinterest in empathizing with or attempting to understand anyone who doesn't fit into your rigid and narrow definition of what am American should be.  AKA, someone exactly like you.

Finding zero evidence of racism in this country is like finding zero evidence that Pujols is slow.

Really? Not sure how you came to that conclusion, but it's totally false. I have zero sympathy for people who claim victimhood without giving concrete examples. What Hodges did only hurts your cause because it comes off as hyperbolic, insulting, and stupid.

Never said that, but thanks for putting words in my mouth. Racism exists here just as it does everywhere else, however it's not anywhere close to as prevalent as society seems to think.

Bwhahahhaha. Trump might play the victim card more than anyone outside of trump voters who repeatedly come up with new reasons why they shouldn't be blamed for voting for trump (the latest being Craig Hodges apparently)

After reading what you replied with you'd be much better off with my words.

Not surprising you'd think that. You seem like the type that thinks they're never wrong.

It's a risk I'm willing to take.

The fact that this tactic works for a billionaire, who literally shits on a gold toilet and sees women as entree on a buffet line at one of his casinos, is telling both for him and for us as a society.

See this is perfect.  You need a literal burning cross to accept that there's an issue.  Not the vast income inequity, not the incarceration rates, not the dark people that turn up dead dispropotiately when dealing with police.  Not the poisoned water where all the blacks live.  I could go on and on.  You exist in this ridiculous bubble of delusion that there's no such thing as white privilege.  

What the true believer Trump people ultimately want is for minorities to just shut the f*** up.  I personally wouldn't not stand for the anthem, but I'm glad that there's people expressing their protest that way.  That's what this place is about and guys like you completely don't get that.

White privilege...haha oh man here we go. Maybe that existed 50 years ago, but there's no big bad man telling people they can't do this or that. Name one single law that is systematically racist, or cite one hard statistic that you think it racially motivated and I could probably counter it with another stat that contradicts it.

And yeah, if you're gonna call large groups people names like a racist sexist bigot homophobe I expect you to back it up. Shame on me!

If you need some help coming up with a response that didn't perfectly illustrate what you were responding to please let me know. I'd be happy to give you a discount on my services.

So it's wrong now to ask for facts to back up an argument? Welcome to bizarro world.

You might start with these. You know, in the post you replied to. Personally I'd start with the remarkably disproportionate racial bias in defendants sentenced to death row.

[Make Angels Great Again]

The disparities exist, but just because they do doesn't mean racism is the reason for them. Hope that doesnt rock your world too much.

Ill have to look at that death row one.

[fan_since79]

You know, black people are charged with a disproportionate number of crimes relative to their population.

51% of the murders, for example, while they make up about 13% of the population.

100% because they are poor. No other rational excuses
