In short, having listened to your view of the world, I don’t care what you think of me and am not motivated to share any further personal information about myself, since sharing with you offers nothing positive to my life and you will only find a way to twist anything I say into something negative.

I will divulge that I live in a neighborhood of largely subsidized housing and and am basically one step away from homelessness at any given moment. I’m a government employee, don’tcha know! And yes, I am proud of my intelligence, as you obviously are of yours. I work hard for it.

Also, 9 dead police officers and one tortured kid are all tragedies. What makes them even more tragic is that the cause for those deaths (and the birth of BLM, actually) can easily be tied to earlier deaths of marginalized and disabled people at the hands of the police officers....individuals who were supposed to…

The way you’ve described the history of ‘a group of people’ is perhaps the most lucid description of postcolonial horror that has ever occurred. Kudos.

I’m not cherrypicking. One is a hate group that brought attention to itself by conducting violence while hiding their faces. The other is a group that is fed up with that hate, and the violence around BLM events is at least partly instigated by the systemically heightened, militant response to them.

I get it but at least he’s using his position for good. As a white person, that’s about all he can do. And everyone on the side of ethical leadership is a help.

I don’t really need to do that. BLM stages protests, the KKK staged rallies. And lynchings. Neither is likely to have traceable memberships, but for very different reasons. One wants to avoid persecution; the other wants to continue persecution.

Ah, namecalling. The intellectual go-to for the emotionally reactive child.

You have proof that BLM members have done this?

How is it relevant that our incoming president grew up in a racist household? Are you seriously asking that?

i’m SORRY, but I think the headline “Watch Jeff Sessions Straight Up Refuse to Answer Whether He Accepted Money From the KKK.”

Yep, all that info proves there’s no chance you worded that first post badly! The attempt to frame your identity in black and white polarities doesn’t really indicate that you have a grasp on grey space or nuance, though it does indicate a delicate ego.

That link takes you to an I <3 Paul Ryan button.

It was too late by then. And lots of them did.

Yeah, I would just write “I’d” over that pin.

If anything, it more sounds like your wife voted a way because you, hetero gun guy, did so.

I have so much love and respect for this woman. UNDERAPPRECIATED
