Glad to know Charleston will finally achieve racial harmony.

[proust]

more feel good virtual signalling. Why do people think liberals are competent to run any position in government?

[gathersnomoss]

I apologise for Adam defiling Eve....

[Scrambler Bob]

I wear cotton underwear.

I’m sorry.

[Billthedrill]

It’s white too, isn’t it?

[RideForever]

Yeah, that should happen about the time the Muslims here apologize for providing the slaves in the first place.

[Segovia]

South Carolina used to be such a lovely place. I could throw up.

[lastchance]

No. They. Musn’t.

[CodeToad]

When are blacks going to apologize for their role in slavery, being slave owners and the ones who captured and sold their fellow blacks into slavery, not to mention legally starting to hold their fellow blacks as slaves??

[marktwain]

An apology by people not remotely involved in the events, a hundred and fifty years after they happened, is only political theater and virtue signaling.

It is obscene.

[AppyPappy]

It’s rather insincere to apologize for something you didn’t do. It’s almost mocking them.

[Scrambler Bob]

When I wear silk undies, I apologize to the worms.

[jughandle]

...and opens themselves up to countless demands for reparations for which they’ll be obligated, according to the leftist mindset.

[I want the USA back]

You apologize for what you did. Dead people can’t apologize, so shut up.

[null and void]

How would America look today if the Africans sold to America by the muslim slavers were treated the same as the ones they shipped to Arabia?

Arabia has no race problem today because the mulsims had allah their slaves fully emasculated.

Put that in your NOI pipe and smoke it Farrakhan!

[moovova]

While they’re at it...they should rename the famous tourist attraction Slave Market to Diversity Row.

[yesthatjallen]

You can acknowledge the past but an apology for something others did seems pointless.

[DiogenesLamp]

Leave it dead you @$$holes. No good can come of this virtue signaling crap.

[AppyPappy]

I’d like to apologize for all the horrible wrongs that yesthatjallen has committed in this forum. There is no justification for his reprehensible acts.

Sounds almost like a “I didn’t do it so it’s easy for me to condemn others”

They should apologize for Jim Crow but some of those people are still alive.

[cyclotic]

Did y’all notice the article said apologize for the FIRST TIME?

Looks like they’re planning to make this an annual event.

Oh goody.
