You need not look past current events. BLM, removing Confederate monuments, etc. Yet the statue of malcolm x in NYC remains unfettered.
What are these people protesting? Slavery? It hasn't happened in decades. Living conditions? Every person has a chance to make a good life for themselves. So, what's the deal? What are all these people so upset about?
Discuss.
Minorities? In Charlottesville I saw mostly white leftists (Nazis, KKK) fighting mostly white leftists (Antifa, socialists, BLM) and blaming it on the right.
No I don't blame any one group we as a society are all equally doing a tremendous job destroying ourselves from within. We are Rome.

This!
We as a society have allowed ourselves to be totally influenced by a biased and corrupt media to fight among ourselves while we ignore the fact that the emperor has no clothes.
No, they are a tool of the Lefties who are.
The agenda is to push everyone to the extremes. Every progressive is a snowflake and every conservative is a Nazi. The last thing the elites want is people working together.
Perhaps they don't feel America is at a point where things are equal yet.

Agreed. No matter which side you associate yourself with. Threads like this are exactly why this Country is heading down the [BLEEP]. We've spent decade after decade dividing ourselves and separating ourselves over sex, race, religion and political views to the point to where it's hard to truly define what a citizen of the USA should look like today. After all the lies, deceit and corruption that both the left and right have been responsible for in our Country. They're still alive and kicking.

And it never will be....
Be it race, gender, religion or any other pseudo-political division, the media makes money on a divided nation. Our political leaders also keep their political careers alive by keeping the rifts under a microscope.

We don't agree much Dakota but you hit the nail on the head. Where was all this when Obama was in office? Nobody gave a crap of the Confederate flags and statues then. Why? It's just something for the left to cry about.

Minorities trying to start a civil war?
Nah, just a drama queen with an inordinate fear of black people.

It's the media! It's the media!
How have you allowed yourself to be totally influenced by a biased and corrupt media?
And which media? We live in a time in which more media sources, of all types, are available than at any time in human history.

Yup. Hit the nail right on the head.
Dakota continues to make perfect sense!

It's not?
Did we not just have an 8 year term POTUS?
If you're insinuating that because there are still racist people out there things aren't equal you're being silly.
Firstly, racists aren't going to ever ever ever disappear.
Secondly, african-americans, hispanics, caucasians, jews, irish, italians... they all have the same equal rights.
They don't all have the same UPBRINGING and home and social moralities....
Which isn't the government or other races bringing them down.
Personally, I believe it's the Leftist in this country with the MSM in full cahoots with them. The Media is fanning the flames and you get groups like the Commie Antifa and BLM doing their bidding

Senator D. P. Moynahan had something to say about this 50 years ago, the dirty, rotten, filthy racist...

When you have a NAZI Racist in public office it heightens the awareness. That, and the fact that our country has gone totally off the deep end ....
