"When I look around the Fair, I don't see an equitable amount of businesses owned by people of color,"

I spent several years as a vendor at our smaller town's annual fair. It's very hard work. Fourteen hour days, for a number of days in a row always with a smile on your face. The weather can be really hot or raining in a barn type structure with no A/C and the aroma of the next door cow barn drifting in. Then there's setting up and breaking down. Hiring people to cover when you need to eat or take a restroom break. Yep, it's hard work.

Maybe people of color don't want the hassle.

“The first Saturday of the Fair is one of their money-making days. We just hope to slow that down and continue to bring attention to the injustices that plague our community,” he said.

In other words, the entire movement’s goal is simply an attack on capitalism.

“When I look around the Fair, I don’t see an equitable amount of businesses owned by people of color,” Turner said. “Yet, if you look at what people call the ‘help,’ you see plenty of people of color picking up trash and taking tickets, etc., but very few black-owned businesses as vendors.”

These people are complete morons. How many “people of color” are Carnies that live on “the circuit.” I doubt that the black culture of welfare does not contain many people that are willing to live the lifestyle. Heck, there aren’t many of us of any race that is willing to live the lifestyle of a Carny.

Yet, those racist Fair employers and organizers hire people of color when they do get to town. And this moron complains....

Our ancestors termed it “indolence”.

It’s coupled with a newer dynamic called “The Gibs”, which is short for Gibsmedat, which is defined as a sense of entitlement which is completely unearned.
