I can only assume that they decided it wasn’t a hill worth dying on. Most people could care less about the pre-game activities. They’re out in the kitchen getting the beer or soda and their big bowl of munchies (hopefully a nice vege or fruit platter and not the amazing reuben dip that Peeps makes that turns dieters into piggies!) .
Oh, so by not listening to socialists/ communists/fascists, I’m participating in confirmation bias. Let me ask you, how much time do you waste listening to Richard Spencer? And if you don’t, are you participating in confirmation bias?
The leftist media already provides plenty of coverage for them. I know what they say about policy, and how they disagree with the points of view American conservatives hold.
And that is how Michael Brown got shot? Because of traffic stops?
The fact that you can mention the names of those who have been shot, shows that there is no systemic/ institutional racism in our law enforcement system unless you want to accuse Eric Holder as part of it. It was the Holder DoJ that found no civil rights violations against Wilson.
I’ll let JonNC defend himself as he’s quite capable. What positive evidence do you have to support your assertion JonNC comments about Michael Brown are false?JonNC:
And Tamir Rice was gunned down by a pagoda.
No, it doesn’t. I’ve stated from the start, after the racist comment by another poster (have you as of yet condemned it?) that I won’t listen specifically to socialist/communist/fascist speakers. Their record Of totalitarian oppression, poverty and slaughter of civilians speak for itself.
Of course.
Statistically, the problem is not related to systemic racism in law enforcement. Statistically, it has to do with blacks committing more crime. That isn’t related to the melanin in there skin. There are social and economic contributions to that fact.
I haven’t demanded anything. I simply asked if you had condemned to racist statement:
If you don’t want to, by all means, don’t.
. I don’t think it was conservatives who came up with the phrase, “silence is complicity”.Facts are not excuses. Progressives, of course, interpret this fact as an accusation based on race. It isn’t. The fact that American blacks commit more crime has nothing to do with melanin.
The Brown case was a symptom of Brown’s on making. The Floyd case, so far, is a case of a government agent violating the civil and individual rights of an American.
No. Full stop. If you want to tie Rice and Floyd together as symptoms, fine.
Still. Here is the post from another poster that I was responding to.
My comment about Justice Thomas and the others was a response to that.
It states that, based on race, people are scared when a black person stands up to them. Aside from being false, it is, by definition, racist.
Not knowing the context of the article (I don’t read Church Militant), I cant say one way or another. I have no intention of minimizing your concern. You never expressed any concern about that post.
Correct. Instead, you brought Rice in to conflate Brown and Rice.
That larger disease is government abuse of power, violating civil and individual rights.
That outrage is shared be virtually everyone.
Short of violence, looting, and accusations of systemic racism and white privilege and the like, I am entirely with them. What happened to Floyd should never happen to an American citizen.
Those few who don’t share it should be ashamed.
It is interesting how some, a few, who showed up for these protests were far more violent with bricks, bottles and fire than the protesters at Richmond with firearms were.
So should looters and rioters.
Insight to the violence?
Did I, somehow, differentiate between the different types of violence?
