God, I miss having an adult president.

Remember when Henry Louis Gates got into that thing with the officer at his home? And President Obama eloquently spoke about coming together and then invited the officer and Mr Gates to the White House for a beer?

No kidding. I never particularly liked LeBron as an athlete but damn is he ever growing on me as an outspoken leader of the community. This is a guy who is using his fame the right way and not taking the safe easy “all lives matter, let’s agree that both sides make some good points” route guys like Cam Newton always…

Ah, now I remember...this is from one of the Moral Mondays in Raleigh.

This... is quite the false equivalency you’ve concocted.

It’s pretty impressive how well he is transitioning into an outspoken leader in the community. Ali really struggled with it and finally came to a head with the draft. Jordan and Tiger both lamed out, Barkley is the living embodiment of survival bias, Kobe only cares about Kobe, and Shaq is just a little too close to…

Education is neither the sole source of intelligence nor a prerequisite for truth.

The Dukes of Hazzard show (and movie)definitely played a role in romanticising the flag. Once again Hollywood turns out to be way more racist than people think.

The absurdity of confederate veneration is best illustrated by pretending to explain one of these prominent monuments to a foreigner oblivious to the past.

You know, this sounds like a job for the Mythbusters:

Today’s GOP would likely call Lincoln a SJW cuck if he were alive today.

Oh won’t someone think of the public property. The precious public property.

This is how you deal with racist emblems:

“The racism and deadly violence in Charlottesville is unacceptable but there is a better way to remove these monuments #durham - RC”
“How?”
“I don’t know, and never this up ever again, because I sure as shit won’t.”

Fuck off with this bullshit. These statues should have never been erected in the first place.

From the greys...

Nobody was wondering that.

NC resident here and let me say that I thought that all of these statues were cast iron but now that I know that some of them are made of weak shit like this one I will not be the only one on the lookout for opportunities to reenact one of the greatest (maybe) Midwestern rituals ever.

Being illegal doesn’t make something wrong. All civil disobedience is illegal. That’s the point.

“I fear that a lot of people are starting to view history in the wrong context,” Rep. John Blust, a Greensboro Republican, said of the Confederate memorials.

Part of my family’s heritage was killing Confederates...I think I need to celebrate that more.
