1. Pogo (for those who remember): "We have met the enemy and he is us."

This isn't about the Other. This is about what we have become as a nation and culture.

[calimary]

12. Sure do.

"We have met the enemy and he is us."

SO nailed it then, STILL nails it now.

25. I can't believe we still have to post these memes! (but we must!)

because this country IS racist and violent.

So this sh*t continues.

And nothing is being done about it.

[Spazito]

2. Exactly...

Tim Wise is, indeed, a very wise man. He nails it.

[napkinz]

6. sadly, his message will be dismissed by too many

[Spazito]

22. Yes, his messages make some 'uncomfortable'...

dismissing them is easier than dealing with the issues he speaks to with clarity.

[napkinz]

24. some it infuriates ...

4. He's not me. He represents the other America.

I fight against the white privilege mindset that created him, everyday.

[napkinz]

5. the other America is fighting to take the country back

... to the 1850s

9. Do you know WHY you hear people fighting to keep it from being called a "Hate Crime"?

One reason is because they hate and are afraid their hate can be considered to be against the law.

Another is once it's a "Hate Crime" the Feds get involved so a racist can't get a jury of fellow racists to cut him loose.

[napkinz]

10. some believe it's not a racially motivated hate crime but

a crime against Christians

30. That is the meme that should emerge from this horror.

Incredibly powerful and terribly true.

[napkinz]

32. conservatives will never acknowledge this truth

They foster the hate that produced such a monster and disavow any connection between their racist rhetoric and the racist crimes committed.

They deny history ...
