Five years after Northam was dressing up in Blackface ....

[Snake Plissken]

Trump was taking out full pages ads calling for the execution of five innocent Black teenagers

Both need to go

1. KR

[paleotn]

2. Amen.

[Dem2theMax]

3. Absolutely. nt.

[bitterross]

4. Are you fucking serious? How are the two related?

Are you trying to say Northam supported Trump in this?

That's an unfounded, unrelated, despicable thing to do to try to relate the two. It's shameful and should not be done.

[USALiberal]

5. Overreact much? nt

[bitterross]

6. No, not at all, in the case of such an over-reach.

It's insane to couple the name of a Democratic politician who has consistently voted for the rights and benefits of African Americans with the actions of Donald Trump and the Central Park Five.

10. I just want to add:

Prince Harry, at about the same age, dressed as a Nazi for a party.

Does anyone really believe he’s a Nazi?

[bitterross]

12. Thank you.

YES. Harry was an idiot. But I'm pretty sure his mixed-race wife will attest to his lack of prejudice.

The one he must have had to go to great lengths to get her accepted by the queen and the rest of the hiearchy.

I have great respect for Harry for what must have been very difficult issues he had to address and overcome. His mother Diana would be so proud.

8. OP isn't saying that at all. I think you misunderstood the post.

[bitterross]

9. No, I did not. To put the two in the same sentence is to equate them.

The OP may not have equated the two things directly, but it certainly did indirectly.

The OP poster is probably aware of the marketing tactics that are used to persuade people. That mentioning two things so closely to one another causes the typical person's mind to equate the two. To group the two together at the very least.

If you think I'm full of it for that assertion then you need to answer why advertising firms spend BILLIONS every year doing the same thing for their products and personalities.

7. We know Donald trump is a racist piece of shit.

What’s your point?

[whopis01]

11. That was 30 years ago.

That has no bearing on how Trump is today.

Can’t someone change in 30 years?


(That’s what I keep hearing about Northam)
