ok, I'm just surprised FOX leaves those comments up in the first place. Regarding the town I grew up in..Walnut Creek..I say kick their ass..the looters.. "dog catcher"...pretty funny. Unfortunately, there are only 2 parties..and both sides have fuggin nuts who are being propped up by identical idiots who are making serious bank. Does Boebert have her GED yet? dog catcher my ass.

When I went off to the Fox News feed, I read a story about Erik Jordan. He was most recently out in front of the Kenosha Courthouse during the verdict with his daughter and both were armed with rifles in a stated effort to protect anti-acquittal protestors. I had heard of that previously and agreed that if it was OK to openly carry rifles during the night of the Rittenhouse incident, it had to be legal then and there and so be it. www.foxnews.com/us/wisconsin-father-daughter-armed-kenosha-rittenhouse-protestersBut later in the article you find that Erik, who is a Black man, was, like Kyle, also armed with a rifle out protecting commercial property in Kenosha on the night of the Rittenhouse incident. So asking people to protect your property with rifles was actually more of "a thing" than I was aware and not reserved to "White Supremacists" or other reactionaries as one would take away from prevalent reporting after the incident. Was Erik a "Vigilante" to be despised or just someone with specific capabilities that could help out his fellow Kenoshians during the peculiar crisis they found themselves? If fact, it is not surprising to find out that many international news outlets were under the impression that Rittenhouse's victims were only Black men and were subject to racially motivated killings. Not hard to find that info should you care to search. |

Not hard to find that info should you care to search. I saw the father/daughter story first on Sky News Australia. Unfortunately, in many countries the news is CNN. The five years prior to Covid I had been to 40+ countries CNN was about it. On the information side I would say Europe is the least informed, except Portugal. Surprisingly, many south American countries are extremely well informed. |

All of the posters disputing levels of racism in the US..please go to Foxnews.com and read the comments regarding the stories about storefront break-ins in the Bay Area..Walnut Creek and SF. there are wonderful comments about the "13%" , black people and the coming "race war". These are not the one of comments, but they dominate. If any of you have the backbone to do it..please respond with your impressions. I'll comment but please promise me that you will comment on the Democrat policies that have led California into looking like a scene from a Mad Max movie. By the results of their policies, Democrats shouldn't be allowed to be dog catchers let alone lead school boards, cities, states, Congressional districts, the country. Backbone indeed. I went to the Fox news feed and saw some of the effectively anonymous racist comments. Who are those people? Who knows? Do they have power over anyone? Doubt it. I have often said that white racists exists and they probably only make life miserable for those individuals hapless enough to live with them and nothing more. But I point you to Dem Congressional Representative Cori Bush, for example, and her saying that the Judge, Jury and Kyle Rittenhouse were all White Supremacists. You do know that is akin to calling them all the N-Word. This bigot is not anonymous. She represents about 1/435th of America and I assume the preponderance of the Democrats in her district approve of her racism. And she is not harmless. She is actively enacting racist policies (as you do know, her and the other Democrat's "Equity" agenda is not about fairness but about purposefully providing preferential and detrimental treatment for Government benefits based on nothing more than the color of one's skin). See Dem Representative Ayanna Pressley spewing racist hatred towards other Blacks, for example, saying “We don’t need any more black faces that don’t want to be a black voice.” It goes on and on out of the "Squad" and elsewhere where significant segments of our country are represented by these overt racists. All you need do is do a search of Clarence Thomas or Larry Elders or Candice Owens or Tim Scott or Winsome Sears or Burgess Owens and then add the terms Uncle Tom or White Supremacist or Black Face, etc., and you not only see the anonymous racist comments by leftists but you will also see a slew of racist comments from Democrat politicians, Left leaning Cable News Commentators, Newspaper Editorialists, Leftist punditry, etc. Physician, heal thyself. Yeah I don't think that her comment is appropriate, nor is it beneficial. I understand the place that it's coming from - a place of anger and hatred for white supremacists, racists, and a police and judicial system that disproportionately harms people of color. But it would be better to focus on how to solve these problems, then spewing hatred towards the judge and jury for acquitting Rittenhouse. |
