    No sir, I was only stating racism is on all sides. As the post had to do with all racist are republicans.
    There are plenty of all parties that are racist!
    You don't agree wit that, thats cool!

    Black power and white power don't mean the same thing.

    Black power simply means the power to achieve what has been denied to you since the inception of this country.

    Answer the question. How does saying fry pigs like bacon equal racism?

    You haven't made that point yet. It's not racist.

    Right down the street from the Pink Pearl. I lived right around the corner from there so friends and I would go there from time to time. Such a skanky strip club but that's what made it fun. Police would come in there, sit at a back booth, the waitress would bring them a coffee cup and place a $20 bill next to it.

    You sound like the racist in Chief after the Charlottesville murder.

    He literally said those same words verbatim.

    Racists on the left aren't killing the the ones on the right.

    I remember that incident, but cant remember if the cops were fired for doing so? Lots of ugly racism even today.
    The only thing I could control was my own conscience/actions and help bring up my kids and there kids what it means not to be racist, and to be careful not to get involved with hate, racist organizations. Stand against it!

    Not a silly statement. I shouldn't have to look up anything.
    Look up Hillary Clinton & superpredators. You don't have to look that up though.

    My statement was both parties are responsible for racism, and both parties help it continue to exist today.
    To say one party is better than the other, is to allow minor racism to exist because it's less than major racism.
    No racism is good.
    Your quote is a little off there sir.

    (yes minor and major aren't the correct terms, but I'm not going to get into this as I'm not wrong.)

    Sorry and you took it that way. So I'm a racist in your mind? Sorry you feel that way, because in good conscience I can tell you Im not, but I have no problem in calling you a real jerk for using that analogy.
    See, comments like the one you just made does absolutely nothing to help this issue.

    You think it's racist that I personally think that the categorical rounding up and exterminating of millions of people in the span of a few years is worse. Gassing, starving, burning.....

    Yes. I think that you telling me to basically get over it is racist.

    It's bullshit to compare the two.

    And what happened to us happened and is STILL happening for 450+ years. Raping, lynching, burning, beating, breeding, oppressing.

    You don't know.

    You're STILL not answering the question. Why?

    Because you want to paint BLM as racist.

    Keep trying... Newsflash, standing up to racism is NOT racist.

    Now, care to answer the question?

    It's criminal what the Army Core of Engineers neglected to do...

    My son and girlfriend have a house just a few blocks east of the park and we would take my grandson to the park and play when the weather was nice. It is one of the nicest parks with the rose garden which is awesome.
