"My initial reaction was, he was on point," said Jimmie Garland, the President of the Clarksville branch of the NAACP.

If you really want to annoy people, point out something obvious they are trying hard to ignore.

—yep—the urban “black community” eliminates more of its members every few months than all the lynchings from 1865 to the present-—

Go with your initial reaction. Blacks and Liberal Whites have done more damage to blacks than the KKK ever hoped to do.

Black-on-black crime kills more blacks every year (7,881 in 2016 of which most were black on black killings), than were lynched between 1882 and 1968 (3,446)

FDR, LBJ, Obama and the US Left - have also done a far better job than the KKK of destroying the black family, black education, and black communities.

Much like Antifa is today. Democrats love having masked thugs working for them.

“Blacks and Liberal Whites have done more damage to blacks than the KKK ever hoped to do.”

Thomas Sowell basically said the same thing, when he said that the KKK could only dream of keeping blacks illiterate the way Democrats have managed to do, and continue doing.

It is time for Truth. The Judge buries the high-jacking of it. Political Correctness needs to be worked over, by patriots with courage to do so.

Ever see Dave Chapelle’s bit about the blind black who thinks he’s white and head of his klavern. Hilarious.
