Unfortunately, we give cops extraordinary powers in the pursuit of crime. Don’t let him in the house and he breaks in claiming you were about to destroy evidence. Then he arrests you and you have - at best - massive inconvenience. Don’t give him the evidence and he tears up your entire house looking for it. Don’t give…

If that couple were black, they would be dead.

Also, I’m fucking amazed that these people let cops into their house without a warrant, dug through their own trash to give them evidence, AND provided them with identification so they could check for warrants. The proper response would have been to tell Officer Drug Dog to fuck right off and to then call your lawyer.

Can you try that again in english?

Who in the fuck gave your dumbass 20+ stars?

Ah, the Root, calling white people out on their sh- stuff and some white people not being able to handle it. I’m white and I read the articles for a perspective that is missing from many other articles.

Mother fucker you just compared a millionaire losing a goddamn tv show to the ritualistic murder of black people. Are you fucking kidding me? Go to hell.

I’m white, so perhaps you’ll listen to me.

Chelsea is a master of the unfailingly polite “fuck you.” She’s kind of my hero.

He gets a little bit of a pass for me for the first show being as progressive as it was and Big Lebowski. (Because I don’t know why.)

I’m not sure whether to laugh or scream at Roseanne’s apology for what she said about Valerie Jarrett. Saying Valerie is the child of the Muslim Brotherhood and Planet of the Apes was not a fucking joke about her looks. It was an intentional invocation of the racist idea that black and brown folks are more ape than…

Well they wanted a show that portrayed trump supporters, and they sure as hell got that! Lol.

Quick straw poll - how old were you before you were left home alone without siblings (or in charge of them)?

Paris is only racist if your light brown and wear a burka

John Goodman doesn’t need this check. That might be among the most disappointing things to me, is that Goodman — an excellent actor with a respected body of work, including the original version of this sitcom — is okay with being a part of this.

Wanda Sykes is a working actress and comedian. Please don’t rake her over the coals for taking a job and working with someone she knows is racist. POC in show business have had to do this for decades. Odd that a white person being racist still turns out to be a black woman’s fault.

I remain baffled how a very rich white woman with a long career in Hollywood can be mistaken for the voice of working class. Seems to me she is exactly the rich, elitist, hyper-privileged white woman she is.

Wanda sykes didn’t just realize she is racist, she knew like a poc person knows how one of their white friend are racist but isn’t outright racist who just calls everyone a slur in normal conversation.

You do realize most personality exams given by employers judge morale? As someone w/15+ years in Organizational Development & HR...these things aren’t anything new under the sun.

You know those little personality tests that people take for jobs? Guess what? There’s similar ones that are available to determine people’s biases..but guess what? They also cost $$$.
