You might be deplorable if ...

1) If you believe white people are smarter than black people, but say that it isn't racism, just common sense, and people who say they don't believe it are just being "politically correct."

2) If you believe that black people are more violent and more criminal than white people, but say that it isn't racism, because "all you need to do is read the newspapers." Especially if you haven't read a newspaper today.

3) If you believe that black people are lazy, but say that isn't racism, because what you are saying is that "it isn't their fault -- its just a trait that black people have."

4) If you believe that black people are poor, live in bad neighborhoods and send their children to bad schools, so obviously that black person couldn't afford a ticket in Business Class.

Got any more?

1. If you believe Obama wasn't born in this country.

If you believe Obama is a "secret Muslim".

If you believe that thousands of Muslims celebrated in the streets of Jersey City when the Twin Towers came down.

If you believe anything Alex Jones says.

2. Keep up the good work,

but "it isn't racism because" is part of the verse form.

3. Oops! lol...

Duly noted, I'll include it in my next ones.

6. Actually, I see that I forgot it on my last one.

My bad.

4. If you think that you're fooling anyone with your obvious concern troll threads on DU...

...you might be a deplorable.

Not this thread, for the record. Just maintaining the regular cadence of my little Jeff Foxworthy homage. Here's another:

If you think that no one noticed that you signed up for the bigoted hate-site JPR with the same name you signed up with on DU, you might be a deplorable.

If you equate the two parties as "equally bad," you might be a deplorable.

If you plan to vote for Jill Stein, you are deplorable. No "if" about it.

"Now wait a second, Bobby," some of you might say, "all of those behaviors apply to people on DU, who were most certainly not the intended targets of HRC's comment." Well, my logic is that the comment applies to anyone who supports or enables Donald Trump, and all of those behaviors (concern trolling, false equivalence, signing up for JPR, supporting third party buttheads) fit that category to a T. (The kind of T that can be found forceably sodomizing a P in a logo somewhere.)

5. This is a personal insult.

1) I do not troll on this board or any other.
2) I really don't care whether anybody knows that I also post on JPR and would not sink to using a different name.
3) I have never equated the two parties as equally bad, and have consistently stated, truthfully, that I intend to vote a straight Dem ticket as I have done since 1980. And I have posted the positive reasons I have to vote for Hillary -- not as a lesser evil but as a greater good.
4) I do not plan to vote for JS and have never advocated doing so.

Now -- "I'm rubber, you're glue." This post is trolling and the hate that seethes in it is deplorable. (I will not go so far as to say that it is equivalent to Trumpian racism -- it isn't -- but hate for those who disagree is deplorable.)

7. LOL

8. Well, damn. Nice. nt

9. YOU might be deplorable if ...

1) If you believe women are "dogs", "fat pigs", "disgusting", "animals", and must be "treated like shit", you might be deplorable.

2) If you're facing child rape charges, even if they're in civil court, then turn around and threaten the kid's life if she tells anyone about it, you might not only be deplorable, you just might be irredeemable.

3) If you believe women should face 40 years in prison for a miscarriage by calling it an illegal abortion (as if a woman can control a miscarriage), you might be deplorable.

10. Yeah --

we're getting on from "deplorable" to "heinous" or maybe "despicable," ain't we?

That last one hits home. My wife having miscarried a couple times -- we gave up on having children -- that one gets me on to "vicious" and "evil."

11. You might be deplorable....

If someone brings to your attention clear mockery of someone's race, gender, or religion, you continuously ask something along the lines of "what's wrong about it?". "What exactly is so offensive?". It is as though pretending to be oblivious about demeaning stereotypes is now en vogue. It's deplorable.

12. How about if you like salsa better than catsup

This might be especially true when eating tacos
