Well we know that Donald Trump has the support of at least one family here in Pistolvania. "The place: East Huntingdon Township, Pennsylvania. The problem: A Confederate flag display with a black baby doll hanging from a noose with a knife in its back.
Rachel Szolek was driving through West Overton Village when she saw the racially offensive display on a fence near on someone’s property.
“We actually turned around because we had passed the house,” Szolek told Pittsburgh’s Action News 4. “And there it was, and the first thing was shock.”
Szolek took a photo of the display with her cell phone and posted the image to Facebook.
Action News 4 reporter Beau Berman got wind of the story and tracked down East Huntingdon Township’s supervisor Paul Hodgkiss.Hodgkiss said that he was “definitely against anything like that in our township.”
Officials in a nearby community admitted that they have been hearing about the display for months but could not do anything about it because the area was outside their jurisdiction.
The display was eventually taken down minutes after Berman knocked on the homeowner’s door to ask questions. "{Story with video}
Not sure why this racist family took down their display. In truth, they have every right to have it there. I mean it is, after all, on their property.
The fact of the matter is 70% of Donald's supporters in South Carolina want their confederate flags to fly freely, and they are hoping that electing the trumpster will free them from this PC world we live in.
I guess if trump was president that family in East Huntingdon, Pennsylvania would not have to worry about being shamed into removing their display of bigotry and intolerance.
Look, I know a lot of racists believe it's cool show their confederate pride, but you can't just throw that symbol of slavery and oppression in our faces and expect us to be cool with it.
This poor family enjoying a Mardi Gras parade in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, did not deserve to be harassed by some racist while they tried to just have a good time. (*See pic) And neither did some folks down in Georgia trying to celebrate a child's birthday.
This kind of behavior will invariably lead to backlash:
"JACKSON, Mich. — An 18-year-old man has been found guilty of threatening several people riding in a pickup truck that was displaying a Confederate flag.
The Jackson Citizen Patriot reports Monday that a jury convicted Kantpreet Singh on Friday of felonious assault and weapons charges.
Jackson County Assistant Prosecutor Steven Idema says the 17-year-old driver of the pickup, a 13-year-old boy and a female were stopped at an intersection on July 24, 2015 when another motorist pulled alongside. The other driver brandished a handgun and verbally threatened the people in the pickup.
Idema says the 17-year-old driver had moved to Michigan from Alabama and “was showing his southern pride and his southern heritage” with the Confederate flag. A U.S. flag also was displayed on the truck." [Source]
Not cool young man. You have to control your anger. I know it's frustrating, but you can't go breaking the law because you get angry at ignorant people. Just go out and vote and make sure that you do your best to keep the kind of people out of office that would make it cool to display offensive symbols.

Have you read the stats about what South Carolina Republicans believe? The percentages who believe that whites are better than other races and that Islam should be banned? The Iowa numbers aren't much better.
I don't know whether to worry about how public this stuff is becoming again or to be grateful that we're not pretending it doesn't exist anymore.
Democrats' policies have produced an illiteracy rate of 85% among black 8th graders, a black illegitimacy rate of 73%, and black on black kill rates that rival Mexico’s drug wars.
Hillary and Sanders both would continue the same stellar policies that produced these results. Yet Trump is the bad guy??

"The percentages who believe that whites are better than other races and that Islam should be banned?"
We have that right here.
The SPLC is reporting that 2015 was a banner year for hate.
Hate groups had been falling in number since 2011, but last year, there was a large spike -- in both white and black hate groups, as well as other flavors of stupidity. (See graph.) From the report:
"In the midst of these developments, hate groups continued to flourish. The number of groups on the American radical right, according to the latest count by the Southern Poverty Law Center, expanded from 784 in 2014 to 892 in 2015 — a 14% increase."
Black (Criminal's) Lives Matter must be considered a hate group AND a terrorist group, since it uses violence and threats of violence in the pursuit of political ends. However, the $PLC will never designate it a hate group. It reserves such labels for White people who organize to be left the hell alone.
Black people are afraid of flags.
How pathetic and weak.
The SPLC is a hate group.

"The percentages who believe that whites are better than other races and that Islam should be banned?"
Islam should be banned. As for the other statement, well, our record speaks for itself.
Every time I see an apelike nigger thug with its pants hanging down on the street, that is an offensive symbol to me. But you know what? I move on with my life. I don't expect the government to step in and save me.
Blacks are a race of ninny children. You guys won't survive the 21st century.
@ Nasreen Ick Ball -
Hey, I know a country where you'd be much happier. A country where everybody loves Islam, and there aren't any Confederate flag-waving rednecks for you to worry about. It's called Pakistan.
What are you waiting for? Go today!
A serious question from a bm: what will it take for the Whites to accept us as equals and treat us with respect?
I no longer recognize African Americans. The "Real" is unreal. The young given the opportunity to be washed with an upper end (their term) education and the take away is that they did not prepare for their visitation. Where were the chaperones that should have schooled them about the rabid love some have for their "plantation teams".
All the "anything... but Black" mating. The main chagrin is the ease that others can cause them to be "offended" or "my feelings are hurt".
Please, Black people take an hour plus to watch The Black Panthers series on PBS. A party does not make a Panther. The women still held the ship upright until they were pushed out the picture.
"JACKSON, Mich. — An 18-year-old man has been found guilty of threatening several people riding in a pickup truck that was displaying a Confederate flag.

The weird part about this is that the gun-waving, pissed-off dude in this case isn't even black. This is Kantpreet Singh. As far as I can tell, he's your standard issue Indian-American guy. So, did he think he was doing black people a solid by threatening Mr. Confederate Flag Truck and his passengers, or ...?
It's just interesting. That's all I'm saying.
"The weird part about this is that the gun-waving, pissed-off dude in this case isn't even black"
Anti-Confederate flag people are violent criminals.

No, he did not think he was doing black people a favor by threatening the Confederate Flag Truck. FYI, some Indians identify with Blacks, just like some Asians and Latinos do.
You really need to get out more and understand that Blacks need more Singhs and more of others to help end this damn racism against Blacks and others. We need to love those who are outraged by racism instead of wondering why they would be standing with us.
Haven't you figured out that Blacks can't and basically won't end it by themselves?
Whites are a race of ninny children. You guys won't survive the 21st century.

Yet they go to where The Blacks are. White people certainly are dumb just like James.
White people are the biggest joke in this country.
Fat ugly whooteemoos. What else can you say?
You are all boring as shit. Fuck all of you.
"You really need to get out more and understand that Blacks need more Singhs and more of others to help end this damn racism against Blacks and others. We need to love those who are outraged by racism instead of wondering why they would be standing with us."
In other words, not what I said, but exactly what I said.
Plenty of people who are not black do object to racism against black people. But most don't get so viscerally angry as to do something as foolish as this guy did -- usually that requires being on the receiving end of the bigotry oneself.
And getting violent against a random stranger is especially foolish where the Confederate flag is concerned. Not all of the people displaying it are even bigots. Many of them genuinely, sincerely believe in that "Southern pride" rubbish and don't intend to offend; they're not racist at all, just extra stupid.
The question I have: If America prodding Islam is said to create more terrorists, does it not stand to reason that black folks prodding white folks* will create more racists?
*This isn't some theoretical throw-it-against-the-wall shit here. In many circles, of which some here are a part, white people never, ever have a thing said about them that doesn't include their position as privileged oppressors of minorities, especially black people--because World Ends, Black People Most Affected--and from elementary schools literally teaching white kids that they're bad and privileged, to universities creating completely different sets of speech that are allowed from black students and white students*2, many white folks feel completely under attack.
And while some of y'all would say "Oh, boo-hoo" or "Good, about time" or whatever, understand that seeking get-back revenge isn't pushing for equality. And understand that if you're going to treat 200 million people like racist pieces of shit in perpetuity, prepare for some of them to play to the caricatures.
*A black student can claim "microaggression" and literally have the police do something if a white student so much as asks the black student, "Where are you from?" because the PC logic says that asking a black person whence they hail is a way to say, "You don't belong here, nigger; go back to Africa." Whereas a black student can literally throw a white girl against the wall, call her a racist bitch and privileged oppressor, and the university president and other professors refuse to even answer questions about it.
At some point folks on Field's side of the ideological spectrum will have to realize that wanting to get better at race relations is a two-way street. As it stands, it's just non-whites demanding every fucking thing from whites. I mean, everyone here who's an adult of moderate intelligence knows what it means when people call for a "discussion" about race. It means specifically that white people need to sit down, shut the fuck up, listen to black people complain, and acquiesce to every demand made. Barring full cooperation, the whites are more racist than slavery and Jim Crow combined. There's never been a single word uttered about "white people" by y'all black-as-an-ideology morons that didn't include a smear against the entire people's character. And you wonder why racists are crawling out of the woodwork.
They're edgelords. And y'all are providing the kingdom.
Young Black men — across the board — score below their counterparts in other racial and ethnic groups when it comes to graduation rates, literacy rates and college preparedness. And many African American men, in turn, are virtually locked out of employment and are filling up the nation’s prisons in disproportionate numbers.
WHITE RACISM is Alive...just like BLACK LIVES MATTER!
And getting violent against a random stranger is especially foolish where the Confederate flag is concerned. Not all of the people displaying it are even bigots.

Getting violent? You don't see or feel the violence in waving the Confederate flag in your face? Even Haley, Gov of S.C. said that damn flag had to go because it was causing a lot of hurt.
That flag will only be carried and publically displayed by a person who IS 'racist and stupid'. Of course, those two words come together....oxymoron.
What is so confusing is the perverted view of a black person to give some Whites the right to carry the flag because of their Southern pride. I am sick of white southern pride...It has enslaved us, Jim Crowed us, lynched us, raped us, ruined our family ties....and you are Black? Well, you may be black on the outside but on the inside you have a lilly white heart.
Minister of Truth, I appreciate your position of truth for your sincere non-racist Southern Confederate Flag wavers.

"If we believe that humanity may transcend tooth & claw, if we believe divers races & creeds can share this world as peaceably as the orphans share their candlenut tree, if we believe leaders must be just, violence muzzled, power accountable, & the riches of the Earth & the Oceans shared equitably, such a world will come to pass.
I am not deceived. It is the hardest of worlds to make real. Torturous advances won over generations can be lost by a single stroke of a myopic president's pen or a vainglorious general's sword. A life spent shaping a world I want [my child] to inherit, not one I fear [he] shall inherit, this strikes me as a life worth the living."

"The question I have: If America prodding Islam is said to create more terrorists, does it not stand to reason that black folks prodding white folks* will create more racists?"
So what Josh is saying here makes total sense.
Because black folks pointing out racism might make white people racists. So it's far better to shut up about white racism and just let them be racists otherwise they might become racists.
Now that might seem like fucked-up logic to some, but that's because Josh is white and thus 2 S.D.'s clever than black folks. If black folks were 2 S.D.'s cleverer, it would make total sense.
"Yet they go to where The Blacks are."
You've been "desegregating" physical White spaces since I was in elementary school; the least I can do is give you a hint of what it feels like.
"I am sick of white southern pride...It has enslaved us, Jim Crowed us, lynched us, raped us, ruined our family ties...."
Your own African brethren enslaved you. It was the lucky few who got to go to the Americas, and survive. Those who were sold to Arabs died, slowly from overwork or quickly from amputation of the penis and testicles. This is why Arabia has only a tiny Black minority despite being the destination for the vast majority of captives sold out of Africa.
Jim Crow was in response to Black misbehavior. It worked. It's ironic to see you complaining about it, because your family ties were better under Jim Crow than today's welfare culture and "civil rights".
"Getting violent? You don't see or feel the violence in waving the Confederate flag in your face?"
You don't see or feel the violence in stopping traffic and physically mobbing people, invading peaceful spaces with "Black Brunch", hordes of "teens" making entire shopping malls unsafe for actual customers, ad nauseam? If you want to talk about symbols of violence, let's talk about badges of thuggery like sagging pants, face and neck tats and ridiculous hairstyles. Unlike the flag of Lee's army, those symbols are actual indicators of imminent danger. So why not ban them from public spaces?

70% of trump supporters think the Confederate flag should still fly over the state Capitol.
of trump supporters, only 24% are glad the North won the war; 38% aren't sure.
of SC Republicans,only 36% are glad the North won the war; 30% wish the South had won.

Your own African brethren enslaved you.
So white people in America had nothing to do with slavery at all. Once we got here, they felt so bad about us being enslaved in Africa, they gave us clothes, jobs, housing and the freedom to go anywhere and do anything we wanted.
Jim Crow was in response to Black misbehavior.
Jim Crow was in response to white people not having free labor anymore. American whites, to this day, resent having to pay anyone without white skin actual money and they only want to pay other white people as little as humanly possible.
Oh lawdy, lawdy. Mama dat dar confederate flag done scare mes so . I bes glad whitey be getting arrested fo threatneeing us with a piece of cloth and pole.

Please James, after you tell us how old you are can you please explain how segregating drinking fountains, rest rooms, lunch counters and keeping us from voting would somehow correct our behavior. Also, what about the majority of us who did not take part in such bad behavior? What about whites who were involved in bad behavior? Should they have been subjected to Jim Crow laws also?

Well, leftists tell s all the time the only reason Muslims commit acts of jihad against the West is because we go after terrorists.
Modern white animosity towards backs is a reactionary phenomenon to the excesses of anti-racism. Most whites are under 60 years old, and have lived in a world where blacks are afforded special status and privileges. Blacks commit violent crimes against whites at 50 times the rate whites victimize blacks. Blacks are have lower admission requirements to schools and more access to financial aid. Blacks are given preference in hiring and promotions. Yet, after living their entire lives with this reality, whites today are barraged with accusations of "white privilege", claims for reparations for slavery that was abolished 150 years ago, and demands to facilitate transferring their country to other peoples.
That backlash that never happens might someday actually occur. And longer and harder a people are pushed, the stronger it is going to be. Surely black people can relate to that?
The other point is that blacks aren't the ones pushing this anti-white agenda. It is actually the work of one group of whites who seek to assert political dominion over another group of whites by using blacks and other minorities as moral cover. But blacks will unfairly bear the brunt of this resentment, and the more blacks go along with this, the more they become the target.

Lots of big companies like to tout their opportunities for advancement, but most of the time, those "I started in the mailroom" stories are pure mythology. There is no real opportunity to make it out of the ranks of low-end laborer, and the executives are mostly drawn from people who were born wealthy and attended Harvard or Wharton.

Worst governor in America Paul LePage is again in the news today, this time railing against disease-spreading refugees, which he absurdly claims are the biggest problem for the state of Maine.
"'Asylum seekers — I think the biggest problem in our state — and I’ll explain that to you,' he said. 'What happens is you get hepatitis C, tuberculosis, AIDS, HIV, the "ziki fly," all these other foreign type of diseases that find a way to our land.'”
It's "Zika virus," Paul, and the disease is spread by mosquitoes. There is no such thing as a "ziki fly."
Conservatives get very mad when people call them dumb and bigoted, but have they looked at their party recently? Refugees are the worst problem? Fucking ziki flies? I rest my case.
I love Governor LePage. He actually looks out for the citizens of his stae, rather than sacrificing their welfare to achieve a political agenda.
Keep your Goddamned Zika viruses in your own shit hole countries.
The Zika virus can be spread sexually, too. Not just spread by mosquitoes.
"I love Governor LePage ..."

The article says that she has a degree in philosophy and an MBA from Georgia State University. She started working for them as a cashier while still in college. So yeah, it's not actually a "rising through the ranks" type thing in this case because she has more than enough education to be there.

Well, I didn't anticipate that she would have gone on to be an exec without attending college. I'm just saying that that would still not have been enough at a lot of major businesses.
Oh please! The zika virus has been around forever!
The micro-cephalic babies were born that way due to a vaccine that was forced upon impoverished pregnant women during the all important first trimester of gestation. They were to either have the vaccine or be denied medical care.
Another thing that has also caused this condition among others is the pesticides used in these countries.
Anybody remember the Thalidomide babies??? Born without arms,legs,hands,feet! And what was determined to be the cause? One common denominator:
The drug Thalidomide which was given during the first trimester for nausea or morning sickness!
It was prescribed as being a great drug for controlling nausea and of course being completely "safe".

The microcephaly outbreak in Brazil is NOT linked to a vaccine. What ignorant crap.
"An online article on the website of the Centre for Research of Globalization said the DTaP vaccine is the mostly likely cause of microcephaly in Brazil.
First of all, Brazil used Tdap, a slightly different version of the vaccine. More important, not a bit of evidence supports the assertion that either variety lies behind microcephaly.
Many thousands of pregnant women in the United States and around the world have been getting this vaccine for at least five years and multiple studies have found no ill effects on their babies.
Not a single study has raised a red flag for any birth defect and certainly not microcephaly.
The statement is inaccurate in every respect including naming the wrong version of the vaccine used in Brazil. We rate it False."

Well I didn't "name" the vaccine because at the moment I didn't even remember the name I had read!
Rubella caused birth defects so I'm tending to believe that any virus, even a weakened one such as is used in vaccines would have a deleterious effect on a fetus.
I haven't read anything as to that particular vaccine being given under threat to pregnant women here in the U.S. so I can't comment, but I will get back to you when I research.
The Rubella (German Measles) vaccine does NOT cause birth defects. This lie has been debunked for YEARS, yet the ignorant persist in spreading this harmful garbage.
Liberalism has been linked to birth defects, mental illness and late stage retardnation.
"So white people in America had nothing to do with slavery at all."
Every race of people on earth has had something to do with slavery. It's mostly Africans and Muslims who are still practicing it wholesale in the 21st century, though; the English diaspora abolished it in the 19th.
"Once we got here, they felt so bad about us being enslaved in Africa, they gave us clothes, jobs, housing and the freedom to go anywhere and do anything we wanted."
Until 1655 Africans were just as free as English indentured servants. But that year, Anthony Johnson sued Robert Parker for the lifetime services of John Casor and chattel slavery entered the English colonies. Anthony Johnson was himself an ex-indentured servant from Africa. In other words, chattel slavery in Virginia was itself imported by an African as part of HIS culture.
"Jim Crow was in response to white people not having free labor anymore."
Only 2% of Whites even in the South enjoyed that "free labor"; everyone else was competing with it. I'm not privy to what average southerners of the period thought, but I'd bet that they would have been thrilled if you'd all followed Marcus Garvey.

I grew up where those things never existed. As for voting, you consistently elect idiots and thugs to office and make utter ruin wherever you get enough influence. In the interest of good government, why SHOULD you be allowed to vote?
"what about the majority of us who did not take part in such bad behavior?"
Welfare parasitism, fatherless families, "no snitching" making it impossible to control crime... a substantial majority of you are involved in at least one of these anti-social, anti-civic behaviors. Worst of all, whenever you're called out on it you play the race card. Well guess what: you own it now.
"what is worse. Living with hateful symbols or living with hateful black people."
I'll take the symbols. Not one symbol has ever robbed or assaulted me. My family and I have lost tens of thousands to Blacks, though.

The Rubella (German Measles) vaccine does NOT cause birth defects. This lie has been debunked for YEARS, yet the ignorant persist in spreading this harmful garbage.

No I did not mean the Rubella vaccine,scuse moi :)
I meant Rubella itself causes birth defects if the mother contracts it during the first trimester.
It is very common with these mothers to see babies born with heart defects of all kinds, as well as auditory defects.
Yes, German measles can be teratogenic.
"Because black folks pointing out racism might make white people racists."
When I first read this, I wondered why even you--yes, you, the cuntiest cunt of them all--would stoop so low as to make such a blatant straw-man out of a very innocuous point.
Lucky for me you're not clever enough to be vague or cryptic. You immediately tip your hand in the next paragraph. "Now that might seem like fucked-up logic to some..."
So, because you want to keep last week's argument going, you'll build a straw-man this week just for the platform.
That's fine; knock yourself out. But who the fuck are you to tell anyone else that they don't have better shit to do when your dumb-ass is in here literally attempting to create arguments from whole cloth? It's like you're a little fucking kid.
Did you have any opinion on Field's actual post? Of course not. Do you have plenty to say in your capacity as the site's self-elected hall monitor? lol Rhetorical question is rhetorical.

Whoa! That had to hurt whomever you were talking to.
Will some PUL-EEZE tell Jeb to put his glasses back on!!!! He looks MUCH smarter with them on!!!
One of the Oregon militia members is now countersuing the government with some kind of fantastical nuisance lawsuit (on account of the government is "the devil"). I'm sure this will make a super positive impression on the judge handling her criminal case.
"Shawna Cox, a key figure in the Oregon militia standoff who is accused of conspiring against the government, says she 'suffered damages from the works of the devil' and wants federal officials to award her $666bn.
Cox, a 59-year-old Kanab, Utah woman facing federal charges for her role in the armed occupation of a wildlife refuge, has filed a 'counter criminal complaint' against 'federal employees' seeking 'six hundred sixty six billion, six hundred sixty six million, six hundred sixty six thousand, six hundred sixty six dollars and sixty six cents'”.
These guys have got to be the most embarrassing, pathetic "revolutionaries" of all time.
Will some PUL-EEZE tell Yīshēng to put her bag back over her head!!!! She looks MUCH smarter with it on!!!
The Ministry of Truth is such a faggot. I mean really.
Yisheng is the true definition of worthless cunt. Look it up in the dictionary and you'll see Yisheng's ugly ape-looking mug right there.
I agree, the Ministry of Truth is a total fucking loser and a waste of human life.
MOT, u are getting to our trolls. Trust me, that's a good thing.
You should be proud. :)
Yep, they're steamed. Oh well. The truth (about wingnuts) hurts.
"...whomever you were talking to."
It's for Purple Cow, in case folks don't know. This dude gets his satisfaction on the board here by trolling people into arguments. And that's fine by me. It's the f'n Internet; do what you feel. But the same time he seeks to make character assessments over people who bother coming here, questioning whether or not they have a life or anything better to do. Love the guy or hate him, he makes no attempt to hide his blatant hypocrisy. He simply knows that he will never--ever, in a lifetime--be called out by anyone whom he hasn't already preemptively poisoned the well against as some sort of racist. So now the guy just patrols the comments, day in and day out, looking for shit he can piece together well enough to start an Internet fight.
It's transparent, and it's not anything unusual online. It's a category 2 edgelord. But typically is the case edgelords have enough shame that they won't bring attention to the fact that they're projecting so brilliantly their own misgivings and failures by pinning to others the fact that something must be "wrong" with them because they're here chatting. Most edgelords have more self-awareness. Then again, most edgelords aren't black-as-an-ideology Marxist sophists.
Paranoid redneck,please write in English.We do not understand klan language.
There.
Dunno what is worse. Living with hateful symbols or living with hateful white people.
There.
There's nothing more entertaining to us lefties than exposing the hypocrisy, stupidity and just laughing at you conservatives. That is what gets me up every day.
There.
