I know! Sometimes I get a little mad at my parents for raising me to have a conscience. 

I was a big fan in the 90s (don't judge me, I was young), and I can tell you he was always weird as hell. I'm actually not that surprised he turned out this way.

Last month I went to the funeral for the grandfather of a friend. His son was talking about his life and accomplishments, and got to the point where he had worked as an air traffic controller in the military, but then got out and did other work for years until the strike in the 70s. The son was all “Dad saw an…

Yeah, I’m with you. When we were kids, Mom used to call us little monkeys some times, but when I started working with kids, I realized that 1) some of these kids are African American, 2) there’s an ugly history behind comparing people to monkeys, ergo 3) I should take it out of my vocabulary when talking about other…

It made me wonder if bullying “the black kid” was how the whole thing got started. I can imagine a scenario beginning with one teenage doofus saying to another one, “Let’s get the black kid to do a Nazi salute, har har!” And then they all do the peer pressure thing and before you know it, the whole group is taking…

The vote was SO CLOSE. What a disappointment.

Sending sympathetic thoughts from Indiana. Though Donnelly was pretty useless, at least he didn’t have an (R) after his name.

FUCK.

That's the point OP was making: the article focused more on the old white guy, but her statement was even crazier. 

SAME

I was just thinking that he was a “nice guy,” then scrolled down and saw your comment!

I agree that nothing is going to change. I work on the north side of Indy, and several of my coworkers have children in schools in the area: Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville, etc. They all got notices from the schools about lockdowns etc. People were worried, people were talking about it, but nobody was surprised. It’s…

I’ll continue reading in a minute, but I have to express my appreciation for “this dumb motherTucker.” Sure, it’s low-hanging fruit, but it did make me chuckle.

I don’t know, but I do know that I get a bit of smug satisfaction every time I see someone agree that it’s the best.

Seriously! When I read that, I thought, “Are you hearing yourself now?”

It’s nice to know that the people of Lawrence are living up to their Jayhawker heritage. I read a book set during the Lawrence massacre when I was about 13, and it made a big impact on me.

Every time I see one of these red carpet posts, I miss the days when we could click on an image and comment directly on that image. It was fun going through the comments right under each image instead of scrolling down to the comments, thinking “Who?” and then scrolling back up to the top again, then scrolling back…

HOLY SHIT. Holy, holy shit.

Yeah, I thought about that too, and I guess that demonstrates just how bold her racism is—she didn’t even keep her disgusting comments to close friends who she could trust!

If she’s pretty young, I’d encourage talking about secrets—I’ve heard of several situations where parents told their kids that in their family, they have surprises but no secrets, and later, the kids told them IMMEDIATELY when someone else wanted to “keep secrets” with them. It was like some kind of warning for the…
