So his “apology” is just an excuse for why he’s a racist piece of shit?? Because I didnt quite catch the tone of regret and apologetic. It was more “Im this way because of what my father went through so I blame every one from that region” to me...

I love how he says “Nothing specifically personal”... but in his “apology” he makes it entirely personal saying he visited his fathers grave and thought about him fighting the Japanese and he was SO ANGRY!

Japanese guy wins a race and this guy clutches his Pearl Harbors.

They do get a cut. But there’s a difference between highlighting people’s memorial day sales (it’s a huge weekend for the retail industry, my company packs nearly a month’s worth of sales into the weekend), and using faux patriotism to sell hats.

Of course they do. But again, it IS Memorial Day, it’s not like they are tugging your heartstrings or tying things to veterans, they just said, “It’s Memorial Day, here’s some sales” like they always do.

to be fair, mentioning it versus capitalizing because of it is different

Has anyone told you you’re boring? I’m happy to be first.

I didn’t send you shit. I posted on a public forum to your comments. Your self-importance is unwarranted.

Got an unbiased source for that? Not that it matters, if you’re going to go bust up a settlement with water cannons and armored vehicles you’ll probably leave a mess. Trash is easier to clean up than a couple million barrels of crude leaking from a pipe too. But go ahead and don’t think about it.

This person is encouraging you to fight with us (American Indians). It’s divide and conquer, the same thing they have been doing since they first set foot here. They want us to clean up what they forced.

Oh my, now you’re really reaching. Out of the thousands of protestors, ‘some’ according to the article, set fires in the snow, and so the whole movement is thereby discredited. Such high standards. BTW; according to your own article, the buildings and structures were burned. It was a symbolic gesture of leaving that…

I have no doubt but that the army had to finish the job that, even according to your article, was begun by the Sioux Tribe and the protestors. You did read the part about forced evacuation, and, again, according to your own article: The site, once occupied by thousands of environmental demonstrators, is now vacant.

Not mad! Just think you’re an idiot, sorry for assuming you were white for awkwardly bringing up The Root on the one article on the main page about a black superstar.

Check Snopes, next time. People left temporarily due to a blizzard (and a forced evacuation), and then returned to aid in cleanup. Pesky little facts.

Well if you’re not white, you do a really good job of strawmanning against black publications like a typical 4chan troll. What black superstars have they torn down? Charles Barkley for being a law enforcement apologist? Links please.

TigerSwan internal communications draw comparisons between the anti-DAPL movement and jihadist fighters, and characterize it as, “an ideologically driven insurgent with a strong religious component.”

Do you read theroot just so you can have reasons to be unhappy? You clearly don’t read it for the subject matter.

And all the crap they said about Obama (that wasn’t true) and about Hillary Clinton turned out to be true about Trump. He’s the fascist foreign agent with no qualifications who is busy destroying the U.S.

“According to ABC, one parent posted on social media that students should respect Ryan because he has a fancy job, no matter how much you may want health insurance someday.”

As a fellow sports loving woman one of the reasons I like Deadspin is that sexist comments like the ones you see everywhere else online are semi rare here & more often than not that kind of bullshit is called out. But this thread is... it’s bad. It’s worse than usual. Maybe it’s a weekend thing.
