That’s an insult to pussy everywhere.

How is a person who has no children but pays their taxes (I assume she did) a drain on society? For example, the taxes I pay support schools, despite me not having any children to attend those school.

“Welcome to the Department of Justice!”

At what point is this parental neglect? There’s a line between letting them be them and another between full on closing the door to the problem.

They had a torch lit parade. There’s a lot of symbolism behind that. Or are you not familiar with history?

Funny, again, we have another one that missed the entire point of the creation of the Confederacy. Please shut up

You’d think they’d be opposed to participation trophies, but here we are.

A bunch of guys giving Nazi salutes, shouting “Jews are not whites” and teliing a counter protestor “You sound like a n*##$r”…

What part of “White Nationalists” don’t you understand? This isn’t about a statue. It was NEVER ABOUT A STATUE.

When a bunch of white supremacists show up wearing swastikas, t-shirts with quotes by Adolf Hitler, throwing sieg heil salutes and chanting slogans like “blood & soil,” it doesn’t make them any less racist to say “oh, they were just there to defend a statue of a slaveholding traitor.”

There’s video elsewhere of these right-wing marchers chanting “blood and soil” as they march. That’s a well-known Nazi slogan. So, no, these people are not simply a bunch of misguided Civil War reenactors with a sketchy sense of history and of the “Lost Cause.”

Peaceable Nazis, you say?

The statue is hardly the point of their protest. They want to be heard, and what they have to say is ludicrous.

No. And don’t make excuses for these assholes either. I’m in Charlottesville and this statue removal has been settled for 6+ months. Back then they had a hard time getting a dozen people to protest its removal. That’s how many people who actually live here feel strongly enough about it to show up and protest. …

“...you are making it seem like the original protesters were defending segregation.”

I mean:

Are you that obtuse or do you just think the rest of us are? Anyone joining with Nazis and the KKK to protest the removal of a statue is not just protesting the removal of a historical statue. They’re racists protesting the removal of a historical statue because they’re racists. The statue they’re protecting is a…

Given a good portion of them are saying racist things, including actual WWII era Nazi slogans, I’d say the ones who are “protectin muh herituge” might be in the wrong crowd.

The alt-right protestors were protesting the removal of a statue of a segregationist and, many would say, traitor. Does that automatically make all of them racists? Maybe not all of them, but it’s a rather questionable cause they’re supporting.

you give really bad, dumb advice
