I know I should not be shocked in Minnesota, just watching the news and the talking head said that Gov Walz has allowed all state campgrounds to be reopened. Does not sound right that a Governor decided to allow camping like he is a parent to the tax payers of Minnesotans.
Indirectly to answer your question Those being arrested and bailed out by many liberals, were not arrested for peaceful protest... As many can't see what may be perceived as their own biases, me included on occasion and to some that is wrong. Let alone some problems with ourright racism... Equally wrong is the vigilante justice and justification of destruction of property, theft, endangering others, etc.
I gotcha, I barely keeo up with the papers here honestly. Guese gotta put out what sells. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
I will be honest and who has not pondered in the last week am I a racist? Have I been part of structural racism? I have been told raising my kids to be color blind was wrong, I somehow have been part of an oppressive society. When my kids applied for college they had no leg up other than their academic success, I got zero breaks on paying for college with grants or interest rate because I was too privileged, tell me how I oppressed or took something away from anybody.
At least they aren’t Asian. Then academics will even disqualify you. It’s amazing how they rose from slavery on the railroads and became the most successful people in this country
The difference for your kids was provided by you and your wife this video tries to show it, but I have some fundamental disagreements with the message. 1. It's now a privilege I have stayed married for 23 years(June 14th) 2. It's now a privilege I spent time with my kids? 3. It's now a privilege I went to college and paid for it myself, got a good career, and saved money for my kids to go? The video does not address the root of the issue IMO, but what the hell do I know.
Inspirational. But much has been done to give minorities a chance. They can go to school for free, they get credit on tests for employment due to their race etc. I could go on and on. How much more of a break can we give. If anything the head start is given to them now. I mean truthfully where is the line? I get helping but reverse racism is a touch too far. I guess this is whiteys payback for pillaging the Native Americans.
Been married 29 years thru thick and thin, raised my children as my priority, did not reproduce until I was married, had a job and a house. Held myself accountable for my actions paid my debts and taxes. Raised my children to be productive, responsible, respectful and treat others how you would want to be treated. I am part of the problem.
Without the poor me my great,great grandparents were sold into slavery by a rival tribe You owe me. My Irish ancestors were refugees from the potato famine. They left their home country in large part due to oppressive British rule. Got here to be discriminated against. Hey didn't whine and ask for handouts they worked and all became successful. I won't even get into the racism my mothers half brother endured after my Grandmother died. Her stepmother refusing to raise a native American child (Tuscaoran) from a previous marriage where his dad died.. Forced to go to Grandmas family on the reservation up around Buffalo to live. I'm no racist, I hate systemic victim hood.
I am not justifying myself to anyone. My Dad came from generational poverty. Graduated college at 3 and half years and went directly to Vietnam. Came back and started a family. Worked his butt off and my brothers and I lived all over this country. He made sure we all studied hard and if he didnt know something to help us, he would go buy a book and read it, then teach us. I worked my butt off in school and on the field. College was paid for by some nice donor folks. I don't have to justify my existence. Nor my "privilege". No one knows my pain or determination. And I sure as hell dont know yours. We are raising our kids in the most diverse areas we can find and if they live a happy and successful life, then we as parents succeeded. A persons opinion and life perception shouldnt be devalued because of the color of their skin and because their parents worked hard and sacrificed. "White privilege " is another phrase used to control the human mind. "If you dont think like us you will be disowned and exposed in public".
Heard another new word today. Deplatformed. Drew Brees said something that was not woke enough so he deserves to be deplatformed.
Looks like the economy is way better than the projected #'s One should never put out a review before thoroughly checking out whats being reviewed. Last time I looked 2020 has 12 mos and this is just the 5th day of the 6th month Reason I don't trust reviews.
the Stocks are where they were before the stupid virus shutdowns ... employment is up and people are going back to work, except where the Anti-American rioters/BLM/Antifa has destroyed those businesses ... the dems cant afford to let the economy make a come back, they are invested in the failure of America right now .... the dems and their right arm, the Fake News media continue to spout out their lies of orange man/white man bad... this country isnt buying it .... ask yourself this one question : do YOU really want Biden/Dems/Globalists running this great country ? ... if you say yes, you are a fool ..
