Just thinking.
« on: May 02, 2019, 10:39:51 am »
I don't want to trigger anger on anyone.  Just want honest opinions on your thoughts as my son is thinking on what to write for a class paper on racism, as I am sure the professor is thinking all of them will be targeting the white race and Republicans.  He may be hunkering for a "F"

Recently a college professor, from Trinidad college said that being white is racist.  This is the same professor that uttered, soon after that shooter targeted Republican at a ball game, that police should not have intervened as the shooter was shooting conservatives.

No, nothing happened to the professor, he is still teaching.

Or after the Vegas shooting, one congressman said that is was no big lost as usually all country loving fans were republicans.

Just wondering what your thoughts are if a conservative ideology person would have uttered those words.

Would it makes the mass media news?  Would talking heads on the new be espousing their views on how conservatives were gun crazy racist?

Another incident that just happened at one of the airports is when an airport employee called a cop a killer, once he found out the passenger was a cop.

Then we have Waters telling all to run customers out of restaurants, or any public place if they are associated with Republicans, or goodness be, wearing MEGA hats.

Like the kid and the MEGA hat.  One reporter said that he felt like smacking that kid's face, as he thought the kid was smirking.

I could go on but you get the idea.  Your thoughts.  For or against, I don't care.
I just want to know what the public is thinking. 

This has gone out to different forums, blogs and I hope to get about 500 responses.  His paper will say that this percent thinks whites are racists Republicans are racist, Democrats are racist.

We are getting lots of responses from college blogs and the majority think that whites are racists and that the republican are racists.

One said that she had attended a republican Trump speech and her biggest fear was getting killed. 

Again, no anger.  Just honest thoughts.  Just wondering what older folks think, as we are getting to know how the young ones think.

It is nothing new that if you are white or Republican and are the victim of racism that nothing will be done.

It is like the blacks shot by a cop - if it happens any where in the US there is outrage and protests.  There have been 4 citizens SHOT AND KILLED by cops in my county over the past couple years.  ALL the ones shot were white. So not a word was said. You barely even knew it happened.  I guess they have to some what report it because it went across the scanner and people lived in the area so it was all over Facebook and what is going on and who did the cops shoot this morning.
