It's not the same because ***** you, you ***** racist *****. I hope that clears it up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saying that when Obama became POTUS I didn’t yell at him about cultural appropriation and being POTUS is clearly a white guy thing. But yes that clears it up.

Considering Hamilton's birthplace and uncertainty about his paternity, it's more likely that Miranda is a closer relative than a random white dude. But I'm sure you knew that.

And you possess the definitive proof that a child born out of wedlock in the mid 18th century in the most racially mixed region in the world was of pure European white descent.

Do you think a person of mixed descent would have had a political career in the 18th century? I say of course not. Is there any proof of mixed ethnicity? No. We’re these things tracked closely? Yes. So, unless you have new evidence all you really have is the beginnings of a Dan Brown novel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiberius Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Quote The House voted overwhelmingly on Tuesday to condemn white nationalism and white supremacy, a measure prompted by the comments of Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa), who openly questioned why those terms had become offensive. Having been stripped of his committee assignments Monday and facing further reproach, King went to the House floor Tuesday to say that he would support the resolution while continuing to protest that he had been misquoted in the New York Times article. "There is no tape for this interview I did. There's no way to go back and listen,” he said, conceding that he might have said the quoted words but challenging how they have been interpreted. “That ideology never showed up in my head. I don’t know how it would have come out of my mouth." The resolution, introduced by House Majority Whip James E. Clyburn (D-S.C.), mentions King’s remarks in its preamble, but the measure does not directly rebuke King himself. It passed 424-1, with Rep. Bobby Rush (D-Ga.) voting no because he favors a censure of King. https://www.washingtonpost.com/powerpost/liz-cheney-the-no-3-house-republican-says-steve-king-should-find-another-line-of-work/2019/01/15/bc182e9c-18d5-11e9-88fe-f9f77a3bcb6c_story.html?utm_term=.c7603fad923f Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Racists HATE the Sothern Poverty Law Center Anyone surprised ? Other than Gator........... Southern Poverty Law Center accused of racketeering, wielding 'hate label' for cash... One of the most prominent groups advocating for stricter immigration went to court Wednesday to demand a judge order the Southern Poverty Law Center to stop labeling it a “hate group,” accusing the self-described watchdog of running an illegal racket to silence political opponents. The Center for Immigration Studies says the SPLC’s accusations that it is racist and anti-immigrant are wrong and have cost the nonprofit support and financial backing by scaring people away from doing business with the center. The center brought its challenge to U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia by filing a civil complaint under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act against SPLC President Richard Cohen and Heidi Beirich, who runs the group’s Hatewatch blog. Mark Krikorian, the Center for Immigration Studies executive director, says his organization doesn’t meet the SPLC’s definition of a hate group and the Alabama-based watchdog knows it but persists anyway — which he said was evidence of the racket. “SPLC and its leaders have every right to oppose our work on immigration, but they do not have the right to label us a hate group and suggest we are racists,” he said. “The Center for Immigration Studies is fighting back against the SPLCsmear campaign and its attempt to stifle debate through intimidation and name-calling. https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2019/jan/16/immigration-group-files-rico-lawsuit-splc/ Edited January 26, 2019 by B-Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
