The children molested by Sandusky were poor white and black kids. In short, the dregs of society, according to Penn State boosters. As far as those moral lepers are concerned, poor and brown kids deserve to be molested and abused. They had it coming.

The accreditation agencies aren’t worth much anyway. They often look for surface issues, not matters of failure in institutional control. Besides, they make money off of accreditation. There are universities currently operating who have been diploma mills for decades, have abated rape for decades, and have been…

She looks like one of those porn actresses off of Blacked.com. Or Kendra Wilkinson. Take your pick.

I’m a Redskins fan and a New York Rangers fan. Yes, I have issues. I also know that both teams for which I root have won championships in my lifetime. Unlike Caps fans.

Exactly. A “catch” is whatever a referee, with the help of NFL headquarters, says it is depending on the time and place. Odell Beckham’s non-catch could have been a catch at some other time. Offensive plays can be offensive pass interference depending on whether it is happening in Denver or in Foxboro, and that also…

You mentioned Natives, so I pointed out the educational and other issues those communities have, as well as how America’s legacy of policymaking against Natives (kill the Indian to save the man) still plague those communities. I can spend a whole day on dual sovereignty, but that wasn’t the discussion. The focus is on…

Part of the problem in the energy markets is oversupply. The oil industry built too many wells, especially in the United States and Canada, and the OPEC world order (artificial shortages) has fallen apart. I’m not sure the issues in the energy market will hurt everyone else.

Apparently you know nothing about American Indians (who, by the way, prefer to be called Natives; I work with tribes as part of my day job). In fact, they continue to be oppressed and subjected to the worst education (from teaching to school facilities) the nation can offer. [http://dropoutnation.net/2012/07/03/thi…]…

Finebaum apparently forgot about the history of Jews in the American South. Especially one Leo Frank (http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/anti-s…). Of course, since the 1960s, Jews have essentially become accepted as white people because this country eventually puts everyone in its accepted boxes. But still,…

Being black in America means being subjected to a collection of systems and laws that were never built for us. This is because we were brought here as slaves, and in fact, those laws were crafted to ensure our servitude and subserviance to those who operate those systems. Sometimes those people running those systems…

That’s not evidence. That’s mere speculation. More importantly, there are plenty of other reasons why he decided to not take controversial stances in the past. Including the reality that he is young, black, and a quarterback, all of which makes him a target in an NFL in which conformity is demanded and even required.…

How do you know? Honestly, if anything, Kaepernick’s decision comes with far more risks and offers him little in the way of controlling “the narrative”. In fact, he isn’t in control now. Even as we talk about his protest, there has been plenty of talk about him being cut, a discussion that has happened before this.

Here’s the thing, and this goes beyond the current presidential election: Both parties cannot be trusted by black people when it comes to issues that affect black people. Democrats are better than Republicans in appearing to be on the side of black people on a number of national issues (affirmative action, for…

If that is all you got from the entire comment, then perhaps the problem is within yourself. Examine your heart and your soul.

What you call “false equivalencies” is what I call acknowledging the reality that neither Democrats nor Republicans have done well on matters such as police brutality and criminal justice reform. It was Hillary’s husband, G.W.’s predecessor, who pushed through the passage of the federal COPS program, which led to…

His performance on the field determines that — and in many ways, was predetermined a long time ago after Harbaugh was forced out of San Francisco.

So people are still trying to make Karen Gillan a thing? How about a black actress for the part?

It is intersectional. And yet, invisible, I tell you!

I can’t blame anyone for complaining about John McCain showing up anywhere, much less a NASCAR race. He is a jerk of a human being who wouldn’t have become U.S. Senator without the money his wife’s family got from its beer distribution monopoly.

The problem with so much television these days is the belief among writers and producers that the more-dysfunctional and awful, the better. This is reinforced by reviewers and pundits who also buy into this notion that dysfunctional and awful makes for great television all the time.
