This is really still an issue?

 

Colin Kaepernick is an idiot and a coward.

 

Blacks and other minorities in this country are oppressed?  Really?  Nobody told me that, and I happen to be a minority.  Some people need to get over past HISTORY and recognize today's world.

What history might you be referring to?

The history of our country.  Are blacks or any other minority really "oppressed" in today's society?
Can I just say that this forum section is awesom lol. I thought I would never see the day this existed on the Jaguars message board. I see everyone is deep in conversation already so I'll stay out of this one. Hopefully we all can see each other's point of view respectfully and still get together to cheer for our team on Sunday's.

I'm a little late getting back to you, but I'll answer first thing in the morning.

How would you react if someone told you to get over 9/11 or the Dallas cops being killed?

The Dallas cops being killed is not past history yet. That was very recent.


I'm over Pearl Harbor and the Cuban Missile Crisis.



 

I'd be over 9/11 if it weren't for the group who did it still making such attacks.


 

Are black people being killed by cops? Yes. So are white people. Among those arrested for violent crimes, whites are killed by police at nearly twice the rate of blacks. There are definitely bad cops who feel entitled to kill as a first recourse, but the problem is not merely racial.


 

Unfortunately, I see no solution to that. We need cops, and we're never going to be perfect in vetting them.

Thus is the extreme left mindset.  Mob rule.  One fake crisis has spawned yet another.

 

Desperation leading to the election.

That's too funny. It's not the left who is desperate this election.

I'm not so sure about that.  Trump visits the site of flooding in Louisiana.  Not a peep out of the Hillary campaign and Obama can't be bothered while on vacation in Martha's Vineyard.  Now Donald Trump is visiting Mexico to meet with their President (a response to an invitation).  The Clinton campaign swiftly bashes his trip while failing to respond to an invitation presented to them.

 

Notice how Trump is addressing issues while Hillary just attacks.  It's becoming pretty clear who the career politician is.

 

Quite frankly Donald Trump is looking more like a leader while Hillary is busy trying to dodge legal troubles and chaos in her party.
Quote:I just said in another thread we don't use the term uncle Tom. This is sad. The guy said I flew off handle... your not interested in the black community or its plight. Stop pretending.


Actually in another thread you said jj may be an Uncle Tom...


You have no idea what his interests are and you don't speak for the entire community just because you are black (if that is what you are).

Was that in reference to someone claiming I was calling him one? The two are not one in the same. I believe I said maybe he is and maybe he isn't. Feel free to quote me, but that in no way means we use that term.

So what do you call rigging a primary for your candidate?

Why aren't the Hillary fans touting the latest polls then?  Because Trump has gained 13+ points in a week or so and now leads.  Plus, I automatically add 15% to any mainstream polls, so Trump in a landslide.  Several of the polls have admitted they are polling 15% more Democrats to make it look better for Hillary.

 

Hillary's strategy is to do as little as possible, cut her schedule down to almost nothing, send Biden and Kaine out to fundraise, and let the media continue to hammer on Trump while covering up the continued unfolding evidence of Hillary's cognitive issues, corruption and criminality.  It doesn't seem to be working.

First, who is we? Who are you talking about?


There ya go:

Here's the thing, what if he is an uncle Tom? What if he isn't? That's why I'm asking questions so I can understand him.


Looking online there are plenty of black people using that term or calling another black person that term. If someone is black and does not want to be represented by you, what does that make them? I'm truly curious.

And rest.  Lots and lots of rest.

I'll try and quote you.
The idea was I was discrediting him by asking some personal questions because his views ran contrary to how black ppl feel. The accusation was saying I was calling him that. The retort was in the vain of it doesn't matter I'm asking the questions to better understand why he came to his conclusion.


Plz multi quote the preceding post for context.
