As is BLM - which takes its contributions and funnels millions to the DPST party.



You are welcome to support your ACLU, wtf - but you will find that white males are shut out of any consideration at all by the ACLU.
I consider that mind set of the ACLU inherently Racist.

70 to 75% of NFL players are black.
The NBA is probably close to 90% by now.
The races are not the same, not equal, and never will be.
I believe racism was on the decline for most people through the 1980's and the 1990's. But the old political guard needed racism to have power, so started to call everything racist. Obama tripled down on this narrative. Originally Posted by farmstud60

Because we are different (humans divided into what we call races), this will always be an everlasting issue, will always be brought up if needed to gain an advantage, or make a comment.


Insurance companies charge a lot more for teenage boys to get car insurance......that is profiling.....not racial profiling......but profiling......is that justified ? Yes.....because teenage boys get into more accidents.


Racial profiling.....if 10 Arabs or Muslims do terrorist attacks....is it right for law enforcement to be on the lookout or on guard when Arabs and Muslims are seen at airports ? No.....but not obvious.


Black people have many different unique mannerisms because of their culture....or just because it is innate ? White people also have different unique mannerisms. Skin color is only one aspect. So there is a difference but not because of race...or is it ?



See how complex it can get ? Originally Posted by VitaMan

Please explain (give examples) how "libs" have weaponized racism (which you claim does not exist) and used it to "divide and conquer".

Thanks!

What does it matter if someone is racist?

I can be racist all day in my apartment with just me, myself and I. Thinking of all kinds of crap that I hate about Eskimos.

The world still goes on totally unaffected by my racist thoughts and personal preferences.

Saying one is white and the other is black does not prove it was racist.

There's no evidence that was a hate crime.

Unless you'd like to provide some.

Thanks!

Is that good evidence to you?

Did you know that there are a high proportion of police that are minorities?

Are we saying that because Derek was white and George was black that it must have been racism?

If both were black or white or asain, would the unfortunate event be more tolerable to you?

Are you in fact the racist one?

The ACLU dedicates itself to fighting for civil liberties, including free speech, for Americans across the political spectrum. That philosophy has sometimes made for strange bedfellows, including neo-Nazis, KKK members, and recently, the white nationalists who rallied in Charlottesville, Va.

Why the ACLU supported the Charlottesville protest
In the summer of 2017, alt-right activist Jason Kessler organized the "Unite the Right" rally in response to the city of Charlottesville's decision to rename the former Lee Park and remove a statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee from its grounds. A few days before the August rally, the city cited safety concerns and told Kessler he could only hold his rally if he moved it to another location.

The ACLU's Virginia affiliate defended Kessler, arguing in court that the city was trying to restrict his free speech unlawfully. A judge ruled in Kessler's favor, but the ruling may not be remembered as a victory for Constitutional rights. The rally turned violent, and a white nationalist plowed his car into a group of counterprotesters, leading to the death of a 32-year-old woman.
