Politics Thank you white people for black history month

Well,black people are responsible for Macklemore so I guess we're even now.

 

That looks like the real Paul from that post Maris made a while back. I though he was dead by then...hmmm

 

Please lock this thread. Regulating my AMERICAN history to one month is not only disgraceful, it's just another slap in the face...

 

Per the constitution, the Thirteenth Amendment to the United States abolished slavery and involuntary servitude, except as punishment for a crime. The last clause has contributed to the mass incarceration of 1 in 3 black males, which is why the Tweet rubbed many online the wrong way.

 

And @MARIS61 is the only conspiracy theorist?

 

This is not a conspiracy. This is math and history combined.

 

math? like jet fuel can't melt steel? isnt fool a personal attack? i'd much prefer you call my posts foolish or my precious snowflake feelings might crumble

 

thanks, i was starting to shake in fear.

 

i do agree here. i think singling a people out based on race is bullshit. we are all Americans and we all share the same history.

 

I don't like this argument, I think it is just a way to make an excuse for behavior rather than have personal accountability. If you want to argue legal slavery, let's talk college sports and why these institutions are allowed to make millions and not pay the athletes a dime for all the physical risk they take.

 

that's fucking beautiful right there. my level of respect for Mr. freeman just skyrocketed

 

Imagine the word fool said with a little extra butter and cinnamon emphasis on it. It was in no way a personal attack. It was a term of endearment. Black people use that word in that context all the time. While not realizing this you go and cry to the mod... Jesus dude... Get some black friends...

 

I agree.

I also agree with DVISS1 that black history month shouldn't be regulated to one month and I don't think America should single out races for anything. But whatevs' just my opinion.
