Alabama and Mississippi will also honor Robert E. Lee on Martin Luther King Jr. Day

[J.S.]

Absolutely. The Confederacy stole real estate from the Union.

LOL. No, public school student.

 

[J.S.]

The north had decades to improve its economy to complete with England. Their tariff enabled them and they became lazy. When it didn't work out for them, they lazily had to steal from the south.

So, what do you think. Should Trump murder the Department of Education? I’m totally cool with it.

Robert E. Lee Day was celebrated long before MLK was.

That's true.

I bet Sheila thinks that’s about her.

She died on July 19, 2024.

Yeah, right. I'm tired of your ignorance, bullshit and idiocy.

Public school students think that the feds can run schools better than the people who actually live in the counties where the schools exist.

Well, that the consequence of your public school "education."

I am a public school student. However, that was before they got so retarded.

My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or to destroy slavery. IfI could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that.
Letter from President Abraham Lincoln to Horace Greeley editor of the New York Tribune.

And? Do you imagine me a Lincoln or Union lover? I know whites on both sides were pretty deplorable pieces of shit. What came after slavery after all was Jim Crow and segregation. In the north and the south.

 

[Curried Goats]

Right. I never claimed what you previously said. The above is not what you previously attributed to me. Are you being purposefully obtuse again or is this genuine?

You are falsely assuming that the absence of a cash payout is the reason the black community is economically disadvantaged. I do not make that assumption. However, I do recognize the economic condition of the black community.

Read your comment again, take your time this time -

“A ten to one wealth gap and disparity of home ownership and investment in Black communities isn't affecting the Black community today?”

Notice what is not there? Read it again if you need to. There is NO mention of what is responsible for that disparity. Just that the disparity exists. I never denied that, in fact I recognized it in my comments.

I did not claim the black community wasn’t suffering an economic disparity.

I don’t know if you are just stoned, dishonest or retarded. But if you can’t keep your own words straight, that’s your problem.



That doesn’t change what DEI and affirmative action are intended to do. You tell me why black people are included in those programs.

“….or otherwise helping those who have been wronged.”

DEI and affirmative action are intended to address economic disparities by providing opportunities to “marginalized” groups.

“Reparations is more than financial compensation,” California Assemblymember Reggie Jones-Sawyer, who sits on the task force, said in an interview. “Financial compensation will have an inertia that is immediate. The other things that we’re looking at will have generational change.”

Better educational opportunities, major reform to the criminal justice system, and policies to address political disenfranchisement, housing inequities and health disparities are among the systemic changes the task force expects to recommend.”

True reparations aren’t limited to money

As discussions about reparations for Black Americans gain ground, California's task force on the issue is hearing that it needs to think bigger.

Dipshit, I'm saying sergation and the purposeful economic disenfranchisment of Black Americans are responsible for the disparity and I'm more than happy to educate you you dumb MAGAt. Did you sleep through American history?



Today African-American incomes on average are about 60 percent of average white incomes. But African-American wealth is about 5 percent of white wealth. Most middle-class families in this country gain their wealth from the equity they have in their homes. So this enormous difference between a 60 percent income ratio and a 5 percent wealth ratio is almost entirely attributable to federal housing policy implemented through the 20th century.

I remember Dr. King when he was alive causing little black girls to be attacked by dogs. The myth is bigger than the man.

This has to be the stupidest shit you have ever said. I remember white men putting those dogs ob black children. Talk about a ignorant racist hag.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

The left has disavowed MLK. They still go through the motions of celebrating him once a year. However, they do not believe the message of MLK’s I Have A Dream speech. They have accepted the philosophy that you can judge a man by the color of his skin, as long as that man is white.

They have traded MLK for Ibram X Kendi.

That's comical, it's amazing how white racist try to reduce Dr. King to a I have a dream speech. 1963 King was totally different than 1968 King. Since you want to quote Dr. King tell me if you agree with this premise that he is speaking of. Dr King said his dream turned into a nightmare, he said he misjudged just how racist America truly is. Let's see if you agree with Dr. King on this, I doubt it though.

I have never heard of Robert E Lee day before. Oh well, happy Robert E Lee day, I guess…

“MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — The U.S. is set to mark Martin Luther King Jr. Day, the federal holiday set aside to honor the life of the civil rights icon. But in Alabama and Mississippi , Monday is also Robert E. Lee Day in honor of the Confederate general.

The two states recognize King and Lee on the third Monday in January. Their state governments created holidays more than a century ago to honor Lee and later combined the day with the federal holiday established in the 1980s to honor King.

The strange juxtaposition of honoring men from vastly different legacies has persisted for decades.”

Alabama and Mississippi will also honor Robert E. Lee on Martin Luther King Jr. Day

The losers are trying to make a go of it.

Rommel's enemies admired him too. he was still the enemy and not to be loved by traitors 150 years later. Come on people that was two centuries ago.

Yes indeed, but who sent those black girls into harms way? King. He thought interest in civil rights was waning and he needed a spectacle. When he did this, I thought it was the most despicable thing done to children. You can honor this slug if you want.

God bless General Robert Lee, the greatest of Americans.

He was literally a traitor that killed American Servicemen. He had to be pardoned to avoid being hanged.

A reminder: they need to focus on important things and not distractions.

King. He thought interest in civil rights was waning and he needed a spectacle. When he did this, I thought it was the most despicable thing done to children. You can honor this slug if you want.

Wow, but you didn't think the racist, white cowards who were doing it weren't despicable, what does that say about you? It would be like me blaming a rape victim for being raped.

If King had wanted to keep those little girls,safe he would have waited until the madman, Bull Connor was gone before those girls went to school. It was mere days. Connor had lost his election, everyone knew he was a lunatic. But no. King needed the violence to kick start interest. He sent those little girls knowing they would be hurt. Intending they be hurt. His movement needed the sympathy.

Again you are making excuses for your coward ass, racist relatives. What kind of punk ass, coward would attack a child? You are trying to dismiss the hate of your racist folks.
