Racist defined: “Someone who constantly calls everyone else a racist.”
my tagline explains it
The basic message of the “thin blue line” is that cops will cover for each other when they break the law.
This is seditious because they are essentially writing their own law and establishing sovereignty distinct, separate, and in conflict with the very lawful authority that pays their salaries and confers upon them their enforcement powers.
Brilliant post!!!
The Waltons are supporting a culture that promotes and encourages the type of action that their employee took. Embracing Hillary Clinton by putting her on the BoD of Walmart is no way to show respect for the flyover country that made the Waltons thousands of times richer than the 1%. This apology is only for marketing cover.
Well, WalMart did endorse Hillary, after all.
I dont shop at businesses that employ racists.
You trying to buy back my business by giving me free shit, but not terminating the racist employees confirms your sincerity in this matter.
I always thought it meant a “thin blue line” between the bad guys and the citizens.
Too many of these stupid incidents with this empire of cheap and shoddy.
The “thin blue line” has cops on one side of it and everyone else on the other.
This whole “racist” meme is getting way to old.
This especially makes me furious.
Yes, she should sue since she was harmed by the senseless stupidity of those in the Walmart bakery.
Makes as much sense to me as a gay getting big bucks and ruining a Christian business.
Fire him/her/them immediately. Walmart hired them to sell cakes and help customers. If they cannot handle that a different career choice is needed.
LOL! No... not even close. Wow... I don't know who told you that one.
The Officers themselves are the blue line. They are not on a side of the line, they are the line. The blue line represents the Officers that separate chaos and order. A line that stands between the criminals and the would be victims.
You said "The basic message of the “thin blue line” is that cops will cover for each other when they break the law." You are way off, it is nothing close to that. Thanks for the good laugh though.
I’ve always thought of the “thin blue line” as the line between law abiding citizens and thugs. Maybe it’s just me.
“I always thought it meant a “thin blue line” between the bad guys and the citizens.”
i agree. i thought it stood for that protective, but understaffed police force, that separates humanity from lawlessness.
I agree with you wholeheartedly, LG
And as far as the employee herself is concerned, actions should have consequences. Call it a 'teachable moment'.
That was always my understanding.
I’m sure that is the PC definition. Here is the one from Wikipedia:
The Thin Blue Line is a symbol used by law enforcement, originating in the United Kingdom but now prevalent in the United States and Canada to commemorate fallen and to show support for the living law enforcement officers and to symbolize the relationship of law enforcement in the community as the protectors of fellow civilians from criminal elements. It is an analogy to the term Thin Red Line.
Each stripe on the emblem represents certain respective figures: the blue centre line represents law enforcement, the top black stripe represents the public whilst the bottom represents the criminals. The idea behind the graphic is that law enforcement (the blue line) is what stands between the violence and victimization by criminals of the would-be victims of crime.[1]
Proponents of the symbol assert that the identifier is intended to show support for police.[1] In the wake of controversies over police shootings, the Thin Blue Line Flag has become popular among law enforcement personnel, their families and supporters.

Thanks gays for making every baker in America feel they have the responsibility to censor ‘bad thinking’ out of every baked product ever made. Even the dumb ones.
