I still have no clue how the steel slabbed wall is going to keep folks from not climbing over it. Seems like it needs to be much higher and a better mechanism at the top to keep folks from climbing over with a rope, ladder, etc
Give me a fricken break if you are implying that whites are 24/7 slandered.
If you think so then you've simply lived with privilege so long that you're blind to it.
As Chris Rock said, "There isn't a white man in American who would trade places with me. And I'm rich". Rock could be Muslim, gay, Mexican/Hispanic...name about any minority and it would still be true.
Where did this other incident happen?

Be a good person, treat people with respect, don't be a dickhead
Yeah, your slip was showing.Yeah, that was probably a poor example. I watch more darts on TV than Cable News so I guess I'm not as outraged as some people are. I do agree with you that things have changed a lot since then.
Yeah, your slip was showing.
BOOM!You got me on that one. There is not a person on earth I would trade places with. Color or no color. God made me as I am and I can accept that. I am just passing through this world and I am but a vapor. Poof and I am gone. So I enjoy who I am
Hypocrisy of the highest level right there. You of all people should never post a single post about calling anyone out.So then you agree that there are small minded people on both sides and that both sides try to paint the other as the extreme?
If so, I will now expect you to call out those on your side that express that small-mindedness.
No the idiocy that your hard left side shows from time to time.My slip of not being a hardcore right winger? I thought that was common knowledge.

False.Well lookie here, some POS Republicans yet again trying to deny people their right to vote and making it more difficult for people to vote. And yet the GOP says voter suppression isn't a real thing
Bill, the disappearance of manufacturing occurred long before Hillary or orange man ever thought about running for office. Here's the data...Then why did Wall street get behind Hillary? If you think working got behind Trump because of race, and not because of the disappearance of manufacturing you're in denial. Do you think it's just happenstance that CEO salaries have exploded since manufacturing started exiting the States?
Trump immediately halted TPP, which would've been more of the same for workers. It's time to stop blaming everything on god damn race, and start looking at reality. It wasn't nor isn't about race, it was about jobs and the future.
Your entire point of view is based on race, and you have the gall to claim other people voted on racial issues, you're the problem and don't even realize it.
No, you hide most of the time then, slip up and get peeved when outed.Meh. You consider anyone left of Steve Bannon hard left. I take your opinions with a grain of salt. Your contributions to the board are limited to labeling everything you disagree with “false.”
Do you ever stop and listen to what you are saying and the nonsense you are posting? You don't believe 5% of the dribble you post. Nobody in America has been denied the right to vote since the voting rights act was made law. Nobody. If they say they did it is a lie. We have poll watchers making sure all citizens who are registered and follow the rules of the state in which they are registered vote. We even let dead people vote and non U.S. citizens vote in certain areas of the country.Well lookie here, some POS Republicans yet again trying to deny people their right to vote and making it more difficult for people to vote. And yet the GOP says voter suppression isn't a real thing
Bill, the disappearance of manufacturing occurred long before Hillary or orange man ever thought about running for office. Here's the data...
https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/MANEMP
You may notice that manufacturing in pure numbers of people peaked in 1979 at a time when there were 226 million people in the US. From 1980 - 2000 the numbers remained fairly flat although trended downward...at a time we added 60 million more people. There was a steep decline in manufacturing from 2000-2010 while we added another 25 million citizens. Since 2010 there has been an upward trend in manufacturing...but still the number of manufacturing jobs is equal to what they were in 1941...before the war when there were 200 million fewer people.
CEO salaries began exploding when we started adopting tax policies that were favorable to high CEO salaries. Those tax policies did nothing to stimulate manufacturing or to allow manufacturing wages to continue to crash.
Nowhere did I blame anything on race. I said that white working Americans started voting against their own economic interest. When their loss of economic status hit home they allowed others to blame race as the reason for their own decline when they in fact brought much of it upon themselves. Attempts to remove barriers that have existed for minorities has been characterized as giving them preferential treatment.
It's your side that keeps whining about attacks on white men, that wants to blame all of our issues on Muslims, Mexicans and blacks.
We live in a much smaller world Bill. If your job is one of unskilled labor then there are millions if not a billion people out there that will gladly do that job for less. Freight is cheap...and fast. You allowed someone to convince you that organized labor was bad. When you gave that up it opened the flood gates to management taking all the cream off the top and passing down a few crumbs here and there. There can be no debate that the decline of manufacturing wages are tied to the losses of organized labor. For all of organized labor's warts, it still benefited labor and kept wages and benefits higher for all workers. I guess as a white collar worker I should be grateful.
So a socialist Australian shoots up a mosque in NZ, and somehow it's because of Trump...
Okay fine...The next time a Muslim group blows up some Jews or white people in general, I'm blaming Ohmar, AOC, and Tlaib...
don't start b*tching either when that happens libs, cause ya'll are naming the game and rules...
I can't help but point out the contradiction of what you said above. You said "there are millions, if not a billion, people out there that will gladly do your job for less". Then you say organized labor "still benefited labor and kept wages higher for all workers". There is a world market for labor, as you correctly pointed out. Keeping wages higher, does not help you keep manufacturing jobs. In fact, it leads to losing them to the people who will work for less. It's basic economics and organized labor cannot overcome market forces. If you are unwilling to work for the market wage, you will eventually lose your job.Bill, the disappearance of manufacturing occurred long before Hillary or orange man ever thought about running for office.

No thanksSend Homey a link, he'd love to watch some innocent folks getting gunned down in cold blood.
