Honest question: people here lambasted Trump supporters who said they would not accept the results if Clinton won, that she’s never be their president, etc. How is it okay to say that about Trump? I have not heard any allegations about rigging, fraud, or other hijinks going on to push a Trump victory. I mean, as much…

Bernie was a garbage candidate who survived only because the Clinton campaign was too afraid of alienating millennials to do even the slightest negative attack on him.

Nah, the Dems and the DNC took the AA and Hispanic vote for granted. She didn’t even visit Wisconsin once during the campaign. These are the people that she needed to turn out to win. They were begging for a reason not to vote for Trump and she never even showed up to give them one. They have no one to blame but…

They got there my friend - they just didn’t vote for Hillary. Trump doubled AA vote that Romney got and got 33% of Hispanic males and 26% of HIspanic women. The Hispanic vote may have actually won Florida for him... think about that.

Weren’t you too busy to vote yesterday?

Nah, we will be just fine. But thanks for the concern!

Keep up with the mocking and snide remarks. You guys will never learn.

I’m assuming any halfway decent lawyer would be able to get these text messages tossed now right?

Well that’s just dumb. A protest that results in me being an hour late for work is highly unlikely to garner any support from me for their cause, whatever it may be. If I am on the fence on an issue, that will definitely turn me against it. Similarly, burning down a Walgreen’s is a poor form of protest.

So then why point out racism, when it clearly wasn’t a racially motivated incident?

Honestly, if you loot/destroy property, you are a terrible, miserable cunt of a person that is helping nothing, and you deserve to be taken into custody.

You don’t have to burn down a community and destroy places of employment to protest. You don’t have to throw rocks at the police. However, there will always be those few individuals that would rather cause chaos and ruin a peaceful demonstration.

Of course, the media pushes it so hard. They ignore positive stories and promote the hell out of hatred & ignorance so people do this. The real enemy is American Media, not the cops,not minorities. The media.

You realize it was a black officer that shot him, right?

No, we really really don’t. The vast majority don’t give a crap one way or the other (I certainly don’t). That said, there is unfortunately a vocal minority on both sides of this issue (see said looters above) and the whole thing goes to shit. This BLM thing ticks me off mostly becuase these “peaceful” protests keep…

Shit ain’t going over any ledge, if perhaps it was an amazing turn out of people somehow being utterly peaceful, and showing that they understand solidarity, maybe...., but no, too much looting, and violence, most the country is not behind this, and cannot ignore that.

Umm...hate to burst your PC safe-space bubble, but the events that occurred in Charlotte was a riot. Black hoodlums looted restaurants and liquor stores, smashed windows and cars, and even tried to push a photographer into a bonfire.

Are you seriously comparing the United States to Iceland? Different country, different demographics, different social problems. No comparison.

Police violence is down to its lowest level in US history. There are around 700 people killed every year (169 black) in a country of a third of a billion. Fewer than half of them are unarmed. That makes around 1 unarmed person shot for every million people. Not exactly an epidemic.
