    When guys like Beto and John Kerry marry up they'll have the time and money to foist themselves into the political public eye. Of course they'll always be Democrats because all you need to is rubbish your own country and the people who protect it in order to advance your career.

    What has puzzled me is whether they truly do believe it.

    According to Tucker Carlson Al Sharpton can be a funny guy and knows well the game he's playing, and will give a wink and a smile before beginning his tirades.. Now he's got all the Dem presidential aspirants kissing his ring before they say a few words on how wonderful Al is. Damn, i'd laugh if I was Al Sharpton too. He must get a kick out of these political people sucking up to him.

    Can't answer that question. It would get me in trouble with the mods.

    No idea what "definition" you're talking about, but confusing "privilege" with "superiority" is most definitely the basis of racism.

    A quote? What rock have you been living under? Here it is. But it was all over the news media (at least the real news media). So don't expect me to fill in the information gap that addiction to right wingnut media produces.

    "insult people here for being a racist"?

    First of all, you will not see me insulting anybody "here" (mainly because if I do, a mod will delete the post). But this statement about insulting people for being racist is as odd as you can ever hope to find. Being "racist" is not like being "Republican" or being "Democrat" or being "Catholic" or "Jew" or ... "being diabetic". Racism is, in and of itself, an insult. On this forum, for example, I can call somebody a Republican... Sometimes Republicans call each other RINOs... and that is not considered an insult. But if I call anybody a racist, that's an insult. This is because racists are at the moral level of thieves, rapists, child abusers.... Racists are intolerant creeps. And, as I have said many times on this forum: the only thing we should never tolerate is intolerance.

    Oh God! You actually judge the validity of your arguments based on the number of likes you receive?????

    And isn't Col. Cooper's Gunsite Academy still going?

    Albuquerque has a great city gun range with ranges up to 1,000 yards, and the 30K acre NRA Whittington Center near Raton.

    It is the simple truth that white people still rule. If it weren't true then we wouldn't be discussing racism at all.

    So because whites generally dominate that must be because of racism? Bunk.

    That is what liberals believe. The alternative, that whites rule because they are more competent, is a liberal heresy and cannot be entertained by the liberal mind. Just ask @Golem.

    It would be unusual if you got less than 48.

    Because there is a fundamental belief in morality according to race. Bad behaviour is excused or pilloried according to skin tone.

    And you know what that means!

    I'm half Puerto Rican, the fact there are very few in the NBA or NFL must be due to racism, right? Should I be kneeling?

    Whites rule because there are more of them. Saying whites are more "competent" is the very essence of racism

    Could it be many blacks exhibit more of this bad behavior, i.e. dropping out of school, doing drugs, having a child out of wedlock, and a general general victim mentality fostered by the LW?

    Whites are only 11.5% of the global population.

    Because? What if a black person said the same thing about black people? What about the Japanese? How about North Africans, or South Americans? Is anyone allowed to say that and get a pass?
