AWAKEN, O AMERICA, YOUR LIBERTY IS CALLING
He doesn’t know what the Stars and Bars looks like, apparently.
Absolutely. When people buy the “Progressive Brand” they need to know the racism they are buying into. When they think Klan Violence and lynching, they need to know that means Democrat Pricinct Meeting.
When they accuse Bush of Fascism, they need to know they are falsely accusing Bush of what Wilson did.
Check out this mental rodeo work from a liberal I was discussing racism with...
“and that a greater percentage of Republican legislators supported the Civil Rights Act than their Democrat counterparts.”
Liberal Daily Kos visitor:
“Yes, but after that vote, the racists were all so upset at the Democrats for allowing that, that they jumped from Democrats to Republicans...”
WTF??? If the Republicans voted in greater number to enact the civil rights act, why would the racist Democrats move to the Republicans?
The way their brain works just blows my mind sometimes.
Wonder if Addison knows the difference between overalls and coveralls. Been in the South most of my life and can hardly remember seeing denim coveralls. Camo, yes. Denim, no. See denim overalls everyday though.
I was raised in a small town in which there were no black people. By the time I was 14 I had seen two black people, one a student from Africa that my mother went to college with and invited to dinner and another was an exchange student in high school.
When I was 14 my Mother and I went to U of I and lived in student housing while she got her Doctorate. There was a black girl my age raised in a small town in the south who had never been around white people. We became close friends.
We were amazed after seeing things on television and reading things that we were so much alike. We liked the same foods, music and read the same books. We would play canasta and try to fix each other’s hair. That is where we saw the most differences is in our hair. I had blonde fine hair and she had thick black hair. I could do anything with her hair and it would stay with a little pommade. She couldn’t do a thing with mine.
We started walking to school together. Once there she would go with her black friends and I would go with my white friends. This was in the 60s. One day I went to pick her up and her mother said she had sent her to live with her grandmother. It turned out that the blacks in the school had said if she didn’t quit hanging around that white girl they would hurt both of us. Her mother decided it wasn’t the best place for her to finish junior high.
I have been exposed to racism but it has always been towards me. In high school the hispanics made one of the bathrooms for Mexicans only. If you tried to use it they would take their knife out of the scarf around their ponytail and convince you never to use it again. I can’t imagine that happening the other way around during that time.
Yes, many of the blacks and hispanics have also been victims of racism but the only way to stop it is to stop it. No one is automatically racist unless them proclaim such. It has gotten so people can’t discuss race. If we were able to talk about it there wouldn’t be those divides. We are left with what the left and the media want us to believe.
Won't happen. Then they'd have to address the debate and defend their argument on merit alone.
Bump to a very good article. I’ve been saying these things for years.
