re: #281 MandyManners

When you see racism everywhere you diminish the effects of genuine racism.

AMEN!

I wonder if the constant accusations of racism by some aren’t calculated to make us keep our mouths shut for some reason having nothing to do with race at all.

Where you guys here last night when Charles posted the link to the live feed for the anti-immigration rally in Phoenix? There was a live chat attached to it. The moderator said 900 people were logged in. The chat was filled with terrible, racist statements and racists jokes. Not even about the Mexicans, but mostly against Blacks, particularly Obama. Racist black jokes, stabs at “that Jew [sic] Immanual”. One guy said that what we need is MORE violence, that only violence will settle this. ONE person said that was wrong.

So don’t tell me the Arizona law has nothing to do with racism when the supporters of this law decide to rant against Blacks and Jews when they have nothing whatsoever to do with it.
