Race War ??? Bring it on ,that should last an afternoon.
“I believe that a lot of white men with guns fought and died for her freedom back in the 1860’s. Some black guys with guns as well.”
The whites have always gave it all for this place in huge numbers.
>>Yes, there were pictures of Bush as all kinds of things—but they were “ideological.” Much of the awful stuff being done to Obama’s images is racial.<<
If that isn’t the most racially motivated thing to say I don’t know what is. They can’t take responsibility for their failures so have adopted mantra of “it’s not my fault”.
No serious person wants a race war. I wasn’t even joking about it. I am just tired of the Libs baiting and baiting...
Dividing America by race, ethnicity, so-called ‘classes’ or even social/sex acts makes no sense to me. Our Liberties are all the same.
It only makese sense if you intend to carve out more Liberty for some at the expense of others. That’s not an American idea. That’s a Democrat idea.
Can't go "back" to where you've never been!
I stand corrected. Although it sure seems that many believe that is where they came from, sadly.
Specifically:
The Ninth (9th) and Tenth (10th) U.S. Cavalry Regiments.
Crispus Attucks, rest his soul.
One wounded man, Prince Estabrook, was a black slave who was serving in the militia.
Crispus Attucks, God rest his soul, was killed in the “Boston Massacre”.
Thank you!
The issue is not skin color - it is culture.
I have more in common with a black conservative than a white liberal.
Of course black free-men were there - but they would have stood against this current “black culture” that “blacks” pretend to consider - ? what? valuable?
The author is just a self important twit.
He’s famously depicted in a painting, but I can’t remember the name...If I had, I’d have posted the image.
The point all along in this American experiment has been Liberty and Justice for All.
This is why I dislike the idea of dividing Americans by race, ethnicity, so-called ‘classes’ and even social/sexual acts...It makes no sense to me in the sense that our Liberty is the same, making it all too easy to ignore the contributions of all of those brave individuals that have succeeded over the years striving to create and preserve that Liberty.
I’ve only seen one or two of those pictures she posted. It certainly doesn’t prove that the Tea Party or people that oppose 0bama are racist.
Freaking News and 4chan certainly aren’t conservative websites.
back window decal, in small white letters, sent me a message that sent a chill down my spine -- just as he'd hoped it would, no doubt. It said: THIS COUNTRY WAS BUILT BY WHITE MEN WITH GUNS... But I lost my appetite entirely, when I saw that decal. I've lost my appetite for America, period, to be honest... this guy must never have read a history book in his life... When I first suggested to friends that the Tea Party and other Obama detractors were opening a Pandora's box of deeper, uglier hatreds and behaviors...people told me to stop being so 60s/sensitive/black... I hate it that we've come almost full circle back to a kind of hatred soooo many people fought and died to end.Yeah, the white men with guns. What an ignorant racist a-hole.
Good points all ...
No the Black man as Concord bridge was a guy called Peter Salem, he later fought quite well at Breed’s and Bunker Hill.
Crispus Attucks was a black man, but he was one of the colonial casualties at the Boston Massacre.
woerm
I really this young black child would read about the “Deacons for Defense”. Gun carrying, family values oriented, black American patriots.
A whole host of others. Spouting “everything is racism” in reaction to a redneck is so childishly simplistic.
