The Democrats Racist Card + my awakening today

[kauphy]

Or, The Continuing Media Narrative of ‘Acceptable’ Racism.

Dr. King once said, “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” Apparently, US Attorney General Eric Holder didn’t get the memo.

As reported and applauded by Politico, Holder announced Tuesday that he was fed up with listening to whining whites who claim the justice department deliberately blocks investigations of black on white racism. Predictably, the Establishment media sides with holder

“Think about that,” Holder said. “When you compare what people endured in the South in the 60s to try to get the right to vote for African Americans, to compare what people subjected to that with what happened in Philadelphia, which was inappropriate .. .to describe it in those terms I think does a great disservice to people who put their lives on the line for my people,” said Holder, who is black


and then we have eric holder saying this about white people.

and last time i looked i was not a whining white person but a human being that is fed up with everything that is going on in the u.s today.

i don,t care if your lift right or in the middle everyone must work together or nothing at all will get done.

oh wait maybe nothing getting done would be better then the crap thats getting done.

me thinks that holder standing up for "his people" kinda reminds me of the partisan thankyou's and likes for footdr's posts.

Right, and it is very racist in nature.

"his people" - shouldn't that be ALL Americans? Not just black Americans?

Can you imagine if this was reversed???? OH my, if a conservative said this... especially if it was a white conservative. LOL. The double standard is hilarious. It's like a saturday night live skit.

its the same thing. from what I saw and I certainly could be wrong, is the folks were giving out the thankyou's and likes, ak high five's not based on the content of footdr's replies but because they shared the same idelogy. Holder has the same bias.

Me thinks this thread has ran its course, no two are gonna see alike and some seem to forget the beauty of agree to disagree, which brings into play the word, Civility

My dear forum friend, I have come to know and respect footdr for several reasons and therefore even had she posted that felicie is a green-eyed purple-headed people eater, I would have refrained from stone throwing etc. and probably just discussed it with her. As I would with you btw or anyone else in this forum I have come to respect and even like
Thats all, I'm done now but I thank everyone in this thread because I enjoyed the learning experience.

I don't really understand your post and how it pertains to mine even after reading it multiple times, except for what I've interpreted to be a little light sarcasm in the last sentence but for the sake of clearing up any misunderstanding I'll quote myself.

Racism is a part of us all... Its how you deal with it that matters.

Humans have been condition for tens of thousands of years to be suspicious of anyone different than they were... It was called survival.

Human history is full of stories about Racism and Genocide.

America was supposed to be better than that... But we are just Human. Now, in America we point fingers at each other and yell 'Raciest' at the slightest provocation, myself included.

Face it folks we are all Raciest to some extent... We are all suspicious of people that are 'different' from ourselves and 'our' people... feeling like that does not make you bad... it makes you Human.

But it is how you handle that natural feeling of suspicion that matters. You can turn that suspicion into curiosity and actually learn about those different than yourself or.... like far too many people in America today, turn that natural suspicion into fear and hate... That my forum friends, in my opinion is when people become a real Raciest, imo... Ignorance+Fear+Hate=Raciest.

No sarcasm at all and I don't see how I could make it any clearer but don't sweat it, it's no big deal. really.

Excellent post lotso

Guess What......

edit: I'm just going to drop this, I've already made clear i think it was invented, and I'm not going to be lectured about race relations from someone like footdr, lol.

I am not intimidated by people like you that will use any means of intimidation and lies to promote their discriminatory views. You attack anyone who disagrees with your views for reasons not proven by fact.

Your a pathetic person, grow-up. It is people like you that make the world a hostile place. People that just can't allow other people the right to their own views and beliefs.
