Tyler Perry’s comedy is trash, but it’s positive trash that actively tries to send good messages to the black community, and also tries to broadcast good qualities about the black community to a wider society that, unfortunately, has spent the last year proving that when in the category of racial tolerance, America is…

WWE usually shunts its African-American legends into Black History Moments on its shows in February. Considering pro wrestling’s problematic history, they usually cycle the same half-dozen or so wrestlers they are on good terms with every year, plus those who are now deceased such as Bobo Brazil and Junkyard Dog.

That was a classic Royal Rumble when Shawn Michaels came in at #3 and almost won until eliminated at the end by eventual Wrestlemania main eventer and world champion Malibu Barbie.

I can think of a bunch of reasons to make it very difficult to ban a political party.

Exactly. And it would legitimize their stances instead of treating them like the insane/irrational blathering of those not meant to be taken seriously.

It is a lot easier to dismiss all Trump voters as racist than it is to try and understand the perspective of others.

NPD has 6000 members in a country of 80 million, but Brexit got 17 million votes in a country of 64 million and Trumplestiltzkin got 60 million votes in a country of 320 million. Even in the primaries where Trump did the worst, he still received a greater percentage of the vote than NPD by three orders of…

UKIP has hundreds of thousands of members and was getting bigger. Donald Trump had John Stewart’s O-face and limitless media coverage.

Martyrdom. Banning a group this fringe at this stage gives them an air of “dangerous.” And some people are attracted to dangerous things just because they are dangerous.

It is counterproductive to ban stuff you don’t like.

To be fair, with Germany’s coalition dependent system (of which I am only marginally knowledgeable, to be fair, and I welcome further comments from those better versed), it is true that it would be difficult for this party to gain any sort of traction nationally, as it would require them to convince other parties to…

I think the problem with CPD isn’t necessarily that we have more “bad apples”. I think the issue is that we have more officers who are aware of the bad apples in their midst and feel the need to cover for them because they’re “brothers in blue”.

Yup. There are good and bad cops everywhere, but in my experience Chicago cops are the worst. Any woman who has worked as a server in Chicago can attest to their entitlement (expecting free or discounted meals in exchange for an implicit agreement to actually show up at your business if you call 911) and their…

two of my uncles were Chicago cops. one I didn’t know very well, the other was one of the most racist people I’ve ever met in my life. and that’s saying something, given Chicago.

I’m a lifelong Chicagoan...grew up in South Shore...was born on the Westside...I can tell you for a fact...the biggest crime-ridden gang I’ve ever seen...is the Chicago Police Department...

Donald Trump has announced Megyn Kelly will be dispatched to Chicago to soothe racial tensions.

A justice department seeking out justice. Savor it. We won’t be getting this for the next four (eight?) years.

Was there any discussion of Horman square? That seems like the elephant in the room. Though maybe it hid among the other elephants...
