Here in my hometown of Philly, a Jewish cemetery was once again vandalized by folks who obviously feel emboldened after the latest elections in America.
It's sad, really, but this is what we have become as a country.
In Kansas, the guy who shot up a bar wanted to know if the three Indian men sitting there had visas and were in the country legally, before he shot up the place, killing one of them and putting the other two in the hospital.
(For the record, they did. )
We know one thing, the trump administration will not be calling the families of these men or apologizing to the immigrant community for his actions, because, to them, what they did is not really terrorism. Terrorism only happens when an atrocious act is committed by a brown person of a certain religion.
Still, maybe it's better that the administration doesn't reach out.
I mean we see what happened when they tried to reach out to the Jewish people.
"Vice President Mike Pence stands with Israel — but flies flags for Nicaragua.
As Pence declared his unequivocal support for Israel during a speech at the Republican Jewish Coalition in Las Vegas on Friday night, one of his staffers tweeted out Nicaraguan flags from the official Vice Presidential account — twice.
"Under @POTUS Trump, we will stand with Israel," somebody tweeted out minutes before Pence's speech, followed by a Nicaraguan flag emoji.
The Israeli and Nicaraguan flags both feature blue horizontal banners. But the Israeli flag's banners are much thinner and enclose the six-pointed Star of David, while the Nicaraguan flag's banners enclose a triangle comprised of volcanoes, a rising sun and a rainbow."
Whoops!

It's most likely either another hoax or some black kids.

Let's just wait for the facts there detective.
Any person who denies tr**p's influence on these incidents is blind and ignorant.
Obama killed Trayvon.
I hope that doesn't mean they plan on starting an illegal war in Israel funded by selling arms to terrorists.
One thing I have noticed about the domestic terrorism inspired by the Bannon/Trump administration is that the targets are demonstrating the human decency that the perpetrators lack.
When they burned down the mosque in Victoria, Texas, they raised over a million dollars online to rebuild it, and the local Synagogue gave the Imam their keys so the Muslims would have somewhere to worship while the mosque is rebuilt.
When they vandalized the Jewish cemetery in St.Louis, Muslims raised money to repair it. They initially hoped to raise $20,000 in a month, but surpassed that amount in three hours, and as the money continued to pour in, they put it in an account to be used to repair the damage to the Jewish Community Centers that have been vandalized lately.
So the efforts to dehumanize Jews and Muslims by terrorizing them are having the opposite effect as they demonstrate publicly their basic human decency, sort of the way Fox News' attempts to sway public opinion against gay people backfired when the heightened attention they received just exposed how boringly normal gay people actually are.

One correction: In the Kansas shooting, 2 of the 3 men shot were Indian. The third guy was a Euro-American who was shot trying to take down the domestic terrorist who opened fire in the bar.
"'Under @POTUS Trump, we will stand with Israel,' somebody tweeted out minutes before Pence's speech, followed by a Nicaraguan flag emoji."
Aside from our ranting mini-tyrant of a president excluding most media outlets from press conferences -- leaving only his sad propaganda bootlickers -- there is another roadblock to reporting on him: his staff's crappy press releases.
Reporters are having to spend extensive time inspecting official White House communications for falsehoods. Not only do they have to fact-check these released documents for outrageous intentional lies, but they are riddled with all sorts of sloppy, avoidable errors as well (similar to not knowing the difference between Nicaragua's flag and Israel's). Occasional errors are normal, but the Trump White House's booboos happen with such regularity, it can only indicate serious incompetence on the part of staffers.
We shouldn't be surprised by this. Nobody decent or well-qualified would ever want to work for such a gigantic dickhead as Trump, so relentless half-assedness comes with the territory.
Israel takes advantage of religious conservatives who believe that Jesus can only come back is their country is still around. Too bad no one is honest enough to admit this. For proof read the Texas GOP's platform which states we need to support Israel because the bible tells us to.

"Israel takes advantage of religious conservatives who believe that Jesus can only come back is their country is still around. Too bad no one is honest enough to admit this. For proof read the Texas GOP's platform which states we need to support Israel because the bible tells us to."
Israeli citizens, Jewish-American supporters of the state of Israel, and Christian fanatics are all victims of Netanyahu's manipulative rhetoric in this sense.
Netanyahu constantly cites a threat that Israel will somehow be annihilated if they negotiate with Palestinian Arabs and give up the West Bank to them. But this is flat-out preposterous in 2017. There is no realistic possibility that Israel, armed to the teeth and backed up by Western military power, will be destroyed; Israel faces some security threats from angry Arab militants, but not an existential threat.
PX: And the hard-liner Jews feel no compunction about using the Christian conservatives for their own benefit, as that is what is being done to them.
Another case of a situation seen popularly as "in need of fixing" which is actually functioning exactly to spec for those in charge of it.
-Doug in Oakland
Fuck all of you.
Thanks for the fact-check. That is always appreciated. We don't run from facts here.
OK Lloyd, just breathe.

Congratulations, Field, on the big win last night. Yes, finally a film about gay black men won an Oscar for Best picture - do you finally feel like it's safe to come out of the closet?

"So the efforts to dehumanize Jews and Muslims by terrorizing them are having the opposite effect as they demonstrate publicly their basic human decency"
The vast majority of "terroristic" acts towards Jewish Americans are done by Muslim Americans.
The vast majority of "terroristic" acts towards Muslim Americans are hoaxes.
What is being demonstrating publicly is their culture's ways of manipulating the basic human decency of white people.
It’s been five years since the death of Trayvon Martin — an unarmed 17-year-old black high school student — who was fatally shot by a neighborhood watchman.
His death sparked the Black Lives Matter movement — arguably this era’s Civil Rights Movement — and protests nationwide calling for justice for Martin.
To reaffirm the moral foundation of this cause, let us recall the facts of that fateful night, as dutifully reported by the Real Media:
Eighth Grader Trayvon Martin is walking home in the dark in his graduation cap and gown, clutching a bottle of medicine for his ailing father.
Aryan Nation Member George Zimmerman is driving around in his Confederate Flag-draped pickup truck, listening to country music and drinking Bud Light.
Zimmmerman spots Trayvon through the night by the glow of his halo.
The Klansman is filled with Hate at the sight of such Goodness, and takes chase.
Trayvon, sensing the pure evil of malevolent White Racism, runs for his life.
The football star Trayvon nearly outruns him, but he is trapped by a "Do Not Enter" sign.
Faced with certain death or disobeying the law, he makes his stand.
Trayvon attempts to reason with his attacker but the illiterate Racist will have none of it.
Zimmerman steps out his vehicle, the moonlight glaring off his white face, and asks "Any last words?"
Trayvon looks his executioner straight in the eyes and says "Civil Rights".
"WHITE POWER!" exclaims Zimmerman as he unloads with his fully-automatic Assualt Rifle.
Even then, if not for the Republican Party, Trayvon might have survived, but the skinhead's extended magazine, unfettered by their NRA-serving legislation, feeds hundreds of rounds into the future Nobel Prize recipient.
The duplicitous Nazi then bashes his own head into the curb, repeatedly screaming "Help me!"
When he is finished, George "Literally Hitler" Zimmerman climbs back into his gas-guzzling monstrosity and speeds off, beer cans clattering in the street.
As Trayvon lay dying, the last thing he sees is the "Bush Cheney 2004" bumper sticker disapperaring into the night.
CNN, that all you got? Copying and pasting four year old memes?

27th February 2017. Meters of wall built = 0.
I grew up near cemeteries in . This is routine hooliganism that is being seized on to fan the flames for the hysterical. Meanwhile the pushback continues. Remorselessly, for those with the stomach.
I agree 15 and Doug, which is why Nyetanyahoo needs a Republican in the WH and preferably one who will kowtow to the evangelicals because someone like Barack who knows who needs whom is a non starter. Not that I have anything personally against Israel but my point is we give them billions of dollars and weapons and like Barack I thinkba little gratitude should be in order.
PX
Obama went to war in Syria for Israel.
All politically convenient hate crimes are hoaxes until proven otherwise.
Only if you're an asshole.
What's the difference between whitey wingnuts, rethuglicans. tea baggers and terrorists?
Terrorists are wanted. Bwahahahahahahahaha!
Israel drags the US around by the snout and practically begs someone/anyone to attack them so we can defend them. Hezbollah isn't/wasn't/hasn't been impressed by Israel's arms superiority.
Well past day one and ISIS is not destroyed and Obamacare isn't repealed. Trump lies.
Listen to this god damned liar- Trump explained that when he was in high school they won wars with major tank battles.
He is 6 years older than me. I graduated in 1971 and I guarantee you we didn't win Viet Nam and we didn't win it with tank battles.
No, republicans allow Israel to lead us around by the balls.
"Israel drags the US around by the snout and practically begs someone/anyone to attack them so we can defend them"
Yes, but President Trump is not going to continue the Clinton/Bush/Obama policy of Endless Wars for Israel. Because he is an Anti-Semite!
http://www.politico.com/states/florida/story/2017/02/wasserman-schultz-calls-attention-to-anti-semitic-incidents-in-s-florida-nationwide-109892
Sounds like Trump is a lot like Lt. Commander nojohnson. An imaginary military genius who never served.
Trump is going to lick Nyetenyahoo's balls just like every other Republican.
"I graduated in 1971"
Proof that age alone does not confer wisdom.
Liberal cognitive dissonance:
Trump is too pro-Israel!
Trump is an anti-Semite!
Field, maybe I'm wrong, but you assume to blame the vandalism of the Jewish Cemeteries, (without actually stating it as such), on white folk. You blame it on Trump's election, I suppose that's why.
Personally, I've never understood the animus black folks seem to have against Jewish folk.
I'm surprised they don't have video cameras in these cemeteries.
So, do you think President Trump will take any action against Putin for the Russians hacking the Oscar awards ceremony last night? Putin's dirty trick spoiled the moment of victory for marginalized African-American filmmakers and gay people. Obama wouldn't have taken this lying down.

Huh. You don't even understand why I took that name...I have explained it many times.
It was never a "claim" by me to have served in the Coast Guard. I'll drop it, and come out with a new one, if it troubles you so much.
Then, you won't have shit to say.
Would I think you could drop all your anons and aliases?
I don't think so.
Till then, I am Lt.Commander Johnson.
Commandeered Queenie- remember how there wasn't enough time for Congress to read the Hatriot Act before wingnuts insisted that cluster be voted on? How did that turn out?

Funny, Field never says that when someone says the same about White people, or "chinks and gooks". Yet Black people never call him out on his racism.

Well isn't this rich, a fucking cowardly assed white boy is criticizing people who served and put them selves in harms way to defend the country and others. Just fucking amazing. Oh well, keep om using a title of someone who actually served while you sit around on your worthless ass. And until you serve we'll continue to call you a pussy just like James Bitch is a pussy. Funny how pussies are the most racist.
Yet Black people never call him out on his racism.
---------------
Do white people call you out on your racism dumbass? When has Field called anyone a chink or gook? Jesus Christ, the most insulting part is that you actually believed anyone except your girlfriend Josh would believe any of your lies.
Ever notice how much the white supremacists have to lie to justify their beliefs in superiority? Lt. Commander Pussy never served a day in his worthless life but uses a military title that he could never earn. James claims to be able to find mistakes in math books, claims he is an inventor, has an IQ of 150 (bwahahaha), has a college degree ect. Just a bunch of large foreheaded losers with no lives insulting other people. Yeah, sounds like a hell of a life there losers.
Hell, they should both sign up for the military and serve but we know both are pussies so that's out. These two winners would get booted out on day one because they couldn't do a single pushup. Just sad.
How much you wanna bet James looks and sounds like Slingblade?
For the record, you can kill ISIS members until your are blue in the face and you will never kill the ideology behind it. Radical Iaslamic terrorists are here to stay.
In other pleasant news, Dipshit Drumpf pats himself on the back and takes credit for Oscar flub because everything is about Dipshit Drumpf, doncha know?
In more good news from the Drumpf cabal for the little people, Ivanka Drumpf lobbied congress last week for a half billion bucks worth of tax credits for the little people with nannies. Nannies are costly, aren't they little people?
Another day, another hillbilly hate crime:
Va. man charged with hate crime after using Muslim slurs, biting victim’s face, police say
But of course, this blog's usual trollies will say that none of the national epidemic of bigoted violence has anything whatsoever to do with the nasty rhetoric and policies of President Hatemonger. Total coincidence.
In fact, they will probably try to explain away the hate crime itself: "How do we know he hates Muslims? Maybe he was just hungry and heard Muslims are really, really tasty. Did you ever think of that?"
National epidemic of bigoted violence.
Straight face.
http://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-fueling-isis-560999?google_editors_picks=true
Every step Drumpf and his know nothings have taken to combat ISIS is exactly wrong, according to the CIA and terrorism experts. Drumpf is the ISIS poster boy for new recruits. plus he's a dumbfucker.
If the Muslim bit the hillbilly it would have been an act of terror and wingnuts would have automatically blamed Obama because he wouldn't say Radical Islamist Terrorists. Btw, dumbass dubya didn't say radical islamist terrorists, either. The CIA told Bush, Obama and Drumpfuck not to irritate Muslims so of course Drumpfuck knows better than the generals and he is going to stir them up good. He knows he can blame Obama and his pissant followers will swallow that line.
"National epidemic of bigoted violence.
Straight face."
Yup, here we go with the rationalizations.
"If the Muslim bit the hillbilly it would have been an act of terror and wingnuts would have automatically blamed Obama because he wouldn't say Radical Islamist Terrorists."
If the Muslim bit the hillbilly, they'd be saying that the Koran and Sharia law command Muslims to eat decent, Christian white folks. "Don't you know? That's what halal is!"
Muslims are being bitten all over America by Trump's minions. It's an epidemic of bigoted violence.

Why do these Muslim refugees want to come here so badly? Don't they know that there are swarms of biting hillbillies waiting for them?
We need to get the word out about this epidemic of bigoted violence.
Muslims are being bitten all over America by Trump's minions. It's an epidemic of bigoted violence
Easily refuted. If Muslims were being bit they be dying of rabies epidemic and there has been no such epidemic reported, unless it is a wingnut conspiracy to keep the epidemic kwiet.
The moron in the Kansas shooting later told another man that he'd shot “two Iranian people.” He'd actually shot two Indians (plus a white man who'd tried to disarm him).
But, you know, to a dimwitted racist, they're all brown, so ... close enough.
OK. Fine...shoot the bastard in the head. Quit complaining that we can't get/afford the chemicals needed to use the lethal injection.
Isn't that a joke. I've got shit under my kitchen sink that would drop a horse.
Bring back firing squads. Make them Public, on TV.

"Do white people call you out on your racism dumbass?"
All the time. I learned it from you, though; I wasn't hard-core until I saw just how much Black people hated me for the color of my skin. Since you all gave yourselves a pass, I gave myself one too.
"you can kill ISIS members until your are blue in the face and you will never kill the ideology behind it. Radical Iaslamic terrorists are here to stay."
Not true. You can keep mudslimes out of your country. No mudslimes, no ISIS. It's been done before, there's ample historical precedent; hell, it's going on today in Myanmar.
That something so simple and obvious escapes Mandingo from Iowa speaks poorly of him.
"Va. man charged with hate crime after using Muslim slurs, biting victim’s face, police say"
Definitely a man-bites-dog event there; eating other people's faces off is usually a Black thing.
"this blog's usual trollies will say that none of the national epidemic of bigoted violence has anything whatsoever to do with the nasty rhetoric and policies of President Hatemonger."
Considering that he came out just last night and declared that the (almost entirely Black-perpetrated) violence in Chicago was out of hand and also for deportation of violent illegal aliens, and YOU are defending the perps, you only have to go as far as the mirror to see one of the bigots.
"Every step Drumpf and his know nothings have taken to combat ISIS is exactly wrong, according to the CIA and terrorism experts."
The CIA is RUNNING ISIS, you idiot. It's a rogue agency.
