Drat, the lictures didn't come through. Oh well, the essence is there.
And the essence is horrible...
The essence is 'the majority of white people don't understand the discrimination and police brutality that happens in predominantly black communities '.
Is it untrue?
The essence is a rant against all the police. What, it's ok to say that all white police engage in discrimination? What is wrong with you?
And if you want to get all ranty - a very high disproportionate number of police officers are killed by black offenders each year - white and black. Where's your care about their lives?

Did you read it? Or watch the debate?
He is saying that racism exists, and that the police should be held to the very simple standard of treating people with respect regardless of their skin color.
No, he did not say or imply that all or even most cops are racist jerks out to kill people.
The 'controversy ' over this quote is stupid. I thought we could agree that racism is a bad thing, but hey, obviously not.
Nobody said that flan. However, you infer it where it doesn't exist. Don't like Obama? Well, it's because he is black, blah, blah. You imagine it literally everywhere. You try to gin it up where it isn't.

I'm quite tired of the implication that every time a black is killed by police, it is because of racism. And further more - the "you don't know what it's like to live in the ghetto" comments in relation to police being racist and horrid to people ignores a whole lot. Like higher crime rates in the ghetto and the higher risk to police - you think it's safe to work as a cop in the ghetto? Should we just remove all police presence and let people in the ghetto kill each other?

You are a racist, sexist, homophobe, bigot, islamophobe, immigrantphobe, envirophobe and whatever others PHOBES they wish to call you. Hey Dems, just say Phobes and keep it simple K? We got it.

Don't you know, LGS, it racist to state the facts.
I can't help it if my memory is better than yours (general you).

You memory? Which is merely your intrepretation of what was said not actual FACT. So, if you can produce a quote then produce it. Otherwise, you got nothing.

Well, really, I'm tired of all the racist attacks by liberals. Because that's what they are. When they call people racist for nothing more than stating facts, they are the ones being racist. When they care more about a dead criminal because he is black than they do about the cop that was threatened just because the cop is white, that is racism. When they call Ben Carson an "Uncle Tom" because he is conservative, that is racism. When they use the label "racism" as a weapon to try to shut people up, that is despicable.

What can we call Republicans?

p.s. I'm taking the high road here.
That is a really good question. The GOP is spiraling downward as I have stated before so the replacement party will need a good name. Remember, lots of Repubs do not like the "establishment" of the party.

BULLCRAP. That is the most disingenuous statement you have ever put on here.
We are NOT disagreeing on racism--but that is NOT what your post was about. Your post was a singular rant about all this police "brutality" and had NOTHING to do with racism.
Black lives ONLY "matter" if they are criminals killed by the police. If they are innocent nine year olds in St. Louis who get shot in a drive-by--then they don't matter.
Direct all this supposed "outrage" where it belongs. Most blacks are killed by other blacks--not the police.

ROTFLMAO!!!
....says the woman who NEVER, EVER produces a quote when asked, just throws out accusations without backing them up.
I think accusing osters of racism is a serious charge and she should not be allowed to insinuate or cast aspersions without any evidence. Quite a bit different than posting links about political tripe.
No one on here that I know of--and not that many people IRL are deliberate racists.
However, there is and can be disagreement about the causes of it, when it occurs, and, certainly, disagreement about the solutions.
Having a president who runs around supporting nonsense such as "Black Lives Matter" when a criminal gets killed by the police--and then turning a BLIND EYE when a 9 year old black girl gets shot by black gang-bangers is NOT some type of "solution". It further divides the nation.
Black lives don't matter to the likes of Obama, Sharpton, etc... They ONLY care about the media attention police killings can garner for political gain. If they truly cared about black lives, then Obama would have went to the funeral for that little girl, or that teenage black kid who got shot on his front porch shielding his girlfriend. He didn't.

Oh, NOW I get it. Trump is allowed to be politically incorrect. Nobody else is.
Trump just said on CNN he'll pay for the assailant's legal fees. He was right to throw the punches, you see, because someone pulled out the middle finger.
Now, pulling out the middle finger is not politically correct, but you should get beaten up for it.
Being politically incorrect is ONLY reserved for His Bloated Orange Highness.
He's all puffed out and indignant.

It's a circus, and I can't stop laughing.
It is a circus. But what matters in the end is that the US elect someone who can stop the nonsense that has been going on for a long time, such as letting criminals overrun our borders, such as making it no longer un PC to call welfare fraud what it is, such as to stand up and stop apologizing for being the greatest nation on earth. To do all that, our political system has to be blown up and rebuilt. Trump is our best candidate to start that job.

He already said he'll go to war with Mexico. How many more wars do you think you can afford?
That vicious control freak will probably go to war with any country that dares to "give him the middle finger".
Can't be "the greatest nation on earth" when every other country thinks you're a joke, and they do. With that guy at the helm, you'll be a laughingstock for years.
