Can someone please explain to me what the apology would be? Sorry we expect you to protect all Americans? Sorry we hear the words you say and see the actions you take and find them potentially indicative of the person you are?

Did you get dropped on your head as a child?
So the people who are on twitter are...not real people? Who are using real words?
You realize that when people have the anonymity of the internet and don’t have to actually, you know, deal with a person face to face that they let their true feelings out, right?
“Sent from somewhere over the rainbow”
Man, people sure have a strange way of expressing their economic insecurity.
It’s actually your civic responsibility. This is a really minimal price to pay for participating in our democracy.
Not today, Satan.
With the entrenched bureaucracy, I’m guessing it’s going to be like having the type of idiot boss who’s constantly telling you to do utterly pointless things and then forgets about it the next week, so you just never bother doing the stupid things he tells you to do.
Okay here’s the thing. There is a wealth, a fucking ocean of knowledge that already exists out there to assist white people in being better allies. Tons of methods to address racism by well educated people of all races exist. Yet somehow white liberal allies still require their marginalized peers to constantly hold…
You are complaining that POC and women want to be treated like human beings? Complaining that BLM was supported in your children’s schools? Really? Black people and other people of color are being MURDERED by police and NOTHING is happening, and your outrage is that BLM dared to come to your white neighborhood? …
What is “obvious” to your children is not very obvious to the majority of the inhabitants of this continent. And no, you’re wrong. Some people continue to “get away with anything”. I’m not even going to give you the satisfaction of commenting on every one of your absurd points because it’s been a long week and there…
Respectfully, this is bullshit. The very foundation of democracy is “one person, one vote”. The electoral college is defined as “one person from Wyoming one vote; one person from California 1/3 of one vote”. That’s not democracy. Rural people should not have the right to tyrannize the rest of the country by giving…
States themselves would cease to have any power if we abolish the electoral college. Every single voter’s ballot would count equally no matter what state they lived in. Currently, candidates don’t even campaign in certain states because of the electoral college and other states pretty much get to decide the vote. That…
Which they should. Think about how weird an argument you’re making — the state with most people shouldn’t have the most say.
The founding fathers also only intended for land-owning white males to be able to vote. Maybe they weren’t perfect and it’s ok for us, 240 years later, to change some of their antiquated shit?
Why shouldn’t more people outweigh fewer people? Why should rural votes count for more than urban votes?
Please note that the situation in which a presidential candidate wins the popular vote but loses the general election anyway has only happened 4 times in US history and ONLY to Democrats. It almost happened in 2004 to Bush Jr running as an incumbent against John Kerry, but, well, it didn’t, did it?
Sorry, no. I’m with Patrick Thornton on this.
