Zone1 February is Black History Month: 20 Years Ago This Month I Met Some of the Last Remaining Tuskegee Airmen at the Boeing Museum of Flight

Two Wings of the Same Vulture

The very same people who pretended to feel outraged at the well-deserved discrimination against Aframs insulted Vietnam veterans as "baby-killers" and "losers too lazy to go to college."

It was so hateful that this class's Rightist branch got away with their treasonous Daddy-arranged draft-dodging just by pointing out that "We didn't protest; we didn't call you names. So the way we got out of having to fight over there should be all right with you veterans."

Shirkers smirking behind our backs as they continue to stab us in the back.

??????????????????????

Countries have a dominant culture. Try telling
China they should not have a Chinese atheist culture. See how far you get.

Chinese culture isn't atheist, communism is.

What laws do not provide equal application? I know that DEI doesn’t treat all people equally, but that’s policies - not law.

Also, not everyone is equal. Some people are smarter, kinder, more motivated, more prudent, more fair-minded, more polite, more law-abiding, more hard-working, etc., etc., than others. Stop pretending everyone is equal.

Basically , the Intelligent folks with Ambition will ALWAYS rule the Average or the Simple Minded. A Downs Syndrome Moron is NOT Equal to an Einstein.

They are exactly equal in the value of a human life. A person with Downs Syndrome is not a "moron," he is a person with a congenital condition who is probably 100 times stronger in spirit and will than you will ever be simply because he has to be. You might want to consider what your real value is equal to.

I'd rather see a veteran history month.

I believe there is room for everyone at the table. It's called good will.

But I do respect the right of any pregnant woman who knows she is carrying such a fetus to choose to have an abortion. Childbearing is difficult at best , complications don't help. One of my neighbors choose to have her child 40 years ago. She is elderly and not in.good health. I have to imagine she worries about her daughter that lives with her what will happen when she's gone.

So you don't respect the right of that unborn child to have a life?

You see it every month.

The simple-minded made laws to exclude people, some of who might possibly have been able to outperform them. Today it is the simple-minded who are whining about policies that make sure everybody has an equal shot.

Equal shot? Buzz off ,ya Commie. Recent History. Obama was Smart and Ambitious. He became PRESIDENT. Maybe I don't agree with his Lib Politics. But it PROVES there is no "Systemic Racism" in this country. Oprah is a Billionaire. Consider that fact. You Libs make me puke.

 

[Stann]

Correct. Unborn children only exist in the minds of people who want a child out of a pregnancy and of course the anti-abortion crowd who invented the term and who believe they have the right to interfere with the lives of others.

Huh? You’re saying that because a parent will die eventually and is worried what will happen to her 50-year-old daughter, it makes sense to abort her so she won’t have to worry?

In February 2005, during a Black History Month celebration, I had the incredible opportunity to meet some of the last surviving Tuskegee Airmen at a ‘Meet & Greet’ event hosted by the Museum of Flight in Seattle.

Each of them was gracious, warm, and generous with their time, happily signing my collection of memorabilia—including a book on the Red Tails.

One Airman, in particular, stood out. Not only did he remember my grandfather, Captain John Daniels, but he also recalled his class designation—G43. I was astonished by the depth of his memory.

What he shared next left me speechless. He revealed that he was originally scheduled to be on the ill-fated flight that claimed the lives of nearly a dozen officers. Their aircraft crashed while attempting to land at Moton Field during a thunderstorm. These men had survived the war, only to perish back home—not because of enemy fire, but because racial segregation in the South left them with no alternative airfields where they could safely divert. That night, fate intervened. He had to work and couldn’t join them, a twist of circumstance that ultimately saved his life.

Maybe ten or fifteen years ago, one the surviving Tuskegee Airman visited Marin City. I put on my uniform and as his car drove past I threw him a parade ground salute. His car stopped, he and his wife got out and walked over to me. He returned my salute and shook my hand. "Thank You Sergeant, Have A Nice Day." His wife gave me a hug. Off they drove. My neighbor saw it and asked who that was. "A true no shit true American Hero."

The term was “invented” by mothers to be to care for their unborn children and want to have them be born and healthy. Made up term is “right to choose,” when in fact choice is the one thing being taken away from a human being by the pro abortion death mongers.

Obama proved that white racism is just as bad as it ever was. There are 8 black billionaires out of 47.8 million blacks. Before you run your mouth at me, understand that I know the complete story and you are just a white person trying to deny the existence of racism today.

2 black people do not prove anything. If I used your logic, I could pick 2 white racists and declare that whites are all racists. You would whine for days if I did that. So STHU.

DEI doesn't say that, your work experience is proof.

DEI has become a boogeyman cop out for anything that the Reich Wing does not understand. Just like Black Lives Matter, they do not understand it and they are scared shitless by it.

 

[0311]

Your denial of the anti-white discrimination of dei is silly.

we all know what it is. YOu not being honest about it, just makes it impossible to have a real discussion about it...

which is obviously your goal.

White Boy Please. You feel put upon. You can't get the job you want or car you want or the house you did not get and blame anti-white bias. I am White Southern Male and I have firsthand experience with White Southern Racism. Maybe they ran out of your favorite Jello and you need to blame someone. The shear history of White Racism in the country is long and disgusting. Grow up. You do not even what DEI is, but you need something or someone to blame and it's handy for you.

 

[0311]

In reality, we understand it fine. You are just spamming a talking point, to try to avoid allowing any real discussion of the issue.


Especially an HONEST AND SERIOUS discussion.

You do not understand the complexity of one plus one equaling two.

You can't discriminate IN FAVOR of non white (females) without discriminating against white (males).

Your pretense otherwise is shit talk.

All Correll does is whine.
