How about the depiction of South Americans? is it generally balanced?

Props for my second home!!! You are right. Quito is so elevated it is like early Autumn all year round. The country offers every type of climate. They usually divide it into four overall areas. The Galapagos, The Coast, The Sierra, and the Amazon... but there is such a wide range of natural beauty there it is…

I lived in Ecuador for years, am married to an Ecuadorian woman, regularly visit, and love the country. I have been increasingly irritated with this movie, even before it came out. I have not seen it yet, and cannot make my mind up if I will. Because the trailers suggested to me that it would treat the country like a…

We don’t know that either, but It would be interesting to find out.

It would be very fact dependent, and the article does not have enough facts yet. It could happen like you said, or he could have just mentioned it at work as an interesting fact. It could have started with some jokes that he participated in and then spun out until it got severe. Or it could have been shut down early…

Nope its not. It will be a non-starter in the case, as any judge would shut down that argument. That said, its almost de rigeur for Respondent attorneys to make public statements like this to sway the public in general.

Well I can settle one thing for them. The protected class does apply. Even if he does not identify as black, being white is also a race, and any race based commentary can be considered. Just based on this article though there are a couple of problems with his case. Protected class is the first element, the second…

Great article. keep it up!

Ok, does anyone else think he is on something else far stronger than alcohol? Also, can anyone in the hotel industry educate me about the hotel’s responsibilities and/or limitations? Is this a public beach and they don’t have authority to do that or something?

1. Yes there are many stupid people

Its not about them using social media, its about making misleading ads. Specifically paid endorsements made to look like impromptu comments. If you make a post about how awesome such and such is, I like to know if you mean that or if you are just being paid to say that. although in my case the only people whose…

Since people on the phone CAN AND DO, make determinations of people’s race over the phone. Your comment is incorrect.

“Whites, by a vast margin, speak more clearly than blacks.”

Okay. I hear you. A few thoughts.

No one advocates erasing the flag from existence. They just want it recognized for what it is. A Symbol for Slavery, treason, racism, hate, anti americanism, and failure.

The poor swastika. It spent centuries as a perfectly benign spiritual symbol and then a few assholes ruin it for everybody. Also tiny mustaches can never come back, no matter how well they fit your face.

Well an overt plutocracy holding half its population in life sentences of hard labor based on race is has got to be in the running.

The East Tennessee thing is soooo true. I live in TN and most of my family is in East TN. I confronted a drunk stupid uncle (you have one too I’m sure) with the fact that East TN was against secession and mostly abolitionist, and I am pretty sure he shit himself.

I think you are both right. Lots of the stupider confed fans, are just hugging a symbol to compensate for the perpetual shame associated with being southern. These same guys will mimimize slavery, or jom crow and deny racism mostly becuase of good old white fragility. They are pathetic and uninformed. Others overtly…

I have to admit that the Civil War LARPers come in all stripes. There are those that are actually into the history and will reenact both sides, and do not sugar coat the facts, and those that are seriously confederate crazy
