Actually it’s very clear that Native Americans were here before the European invaders. To this very day there are tribes that live on both sides of the US/Mexican border. Other tribes who were forced out of the US resettled in Mexico (others were forced into Canada).

Interesting that you speak about Caribbean Islanders…

My biggest regret about vacationing in Sedona is that I did not rent a 4wd vehicle.

We did do the ATV tour. That was pretty awesome though.

less of an eyesore than coal fired power plants, but ok

We’re speaking about ICE, who target mostly Hispanic people. Most Hispanic people, especially from Mexico and Latin America have Native blood.

I never said they were here first, only that their ancestors were here before our ancestors. What they were doing before Europeans arrived is irrelevant to this discussion.

It…

I would agree in saying Bernie is flawed, but I would stop before saying he’s “just as flawed and compromised as other candidates”, especially Biden.

But that’s the political world we live in now, all flaws are magnified to the point where we can’t tell the normal human flaws that everyone has apart from the huge flaws…

No one said she needs to go to a rural area. But with that much money she could easily move to a smaller city. I don’t know the details of her situation, but considering that she was collecting benefits already, it should be safe to assume that even if she has a job currently, it doesn’t pay enough for her to survive…

their ancestors were here before our ancestors were here. We are the squatters.

The children who were separated from their families at the border are going to have a huge future lawsuit against the US govt..

self-critiquing is hard. I commend you for trying, even if you can’t remember the perfect R- word to describe yourself.

Why is this guy out of the grays?

You really think the concept of a “pay what you can afford” restaurant is an original idea?

It seems like one of those concepts that is so glaringly obvious that it has probably been “invented” many, many times.

But sure, it’s more edgy to say it was “re-appropriating”

As a white man, when we have these discussions among ourselves. I get to hear what white people say when there are no people of color around. Yet, almost any mention of racism immediately gets shut down and turned into a reason to attack the person that dare mention it. I’ve been accused of virtue signaling, white…

Ah yes cynicism. How edgy

I don’t know, seems like the sort of idea that could easily have occurred as an “original” idea to multiple people. It’s really not a super complicated concept.

If you’re gonna shit on his hometown at least you could spell it correctly. It’s Sayreville NOT Sayerville. Which is a pretty typical suburban central NJ town. Yeah, it’s declined a bit since it’s industrial heyday, but it’s not the shithole you portray it to be.

I may be biased as many of my HS girlfriends came from…

I truly hope the officer was in uniform when this happened.

Otherwise the defense strategy will be how this “upstanding young man, the son of a police officer even, was in fear of his life when an angry black man threatened him”.

Fellowship of Christian Athletes and the Salvation Army ARE anti-LGBT organizations

They don’t “have to”.

It’s just that if they don’t, no one will believe them.

Because it’s not 2008. What worked for Obama in the past won’t work for defeating Trump in the future. Specifically BECAUSE it worked for Obama in the past, the racist will make damn sure it’s not going to happen again..

Except in CA Dems win even if a good portion of them sit out.
This message is really more important in battleground states where a few thousand voters could conceivably shit the outcome

my favorite part was how his dad won the respect of the racist white firefighters. I mean, I’m pretty sure they were still racist, but now they got to play the, “I have a black friend” card.

I’m sure there were many racist conversations with those racist white firefighters where they had to clarify they weren’t…
