Roseanne whacked, Kimmel still on

[The Prowler]

You know it's pretty bad when Fox News is calling out Roseanne for her racist statement.

[Snaggletiger]

If Trump were black or mixed...then yeah, he likely wouldn't still be on air.

I have a dream, that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character and the desire to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. 

Amen.

Maybe one day, but it likely won't be in our lifetime. Especially not now.

That's because the roles have been reversed.  The narrative is "white man bad, root of all evil"  And 70+ percent of the population doesn't take kindly to that broad brush.

Trumpflakes last week:
"Employers, like the NFL, have every right to punish their workers for exercising their free speech."

Trumpflakes today:
"We should boycott ABC for firing Roseanne because she was just exercising her free speech."

Wrong.  Nobody is defending Barr.  She fucked up.  She should be gone.  The argument is the hypocrisy of allowing soooo many others to bash Trump and all those around him with unchecked racism, vitriol and unabashed hatred.

Yup, the broad brush sucks. But, the "evil white man" used the broad brush first.

So, that makes it alright now?  Please explain.  Why is it okay now?  Why would that EVER be okay?

BTW: Just because is not an acceptable answer.

Whataboutism for a second here...kinda like allowing sooooo many others to bash Obama (some still do) and his family with unchecked racism, vitriol, and unblinking hatred?

It's not okay, it never was okay. It wasn't okay for the "evil white man" do to it back then, it's not okay doing it now. Btw, we're still using the broad brush today ("they're sending rapists and drug dealers over the boarder"...also, ask the congregation here what they think of Muslims, $5 says that atleast one will use the broad brush).

White guilt is a helluva drug!

[WiregrassTiger]

"Cracker" doesn't bother me, neither does "honkey", "white devil", or any racial slur towards me.

Do people here get offended by racial slurs towards them?

If you’d experienced being the butt of abnormally large penis jokes, you’d feel different.
Believe me, it’s not all fun and games/

I see that facts still confuse you. See, I don't feel guilty for what my forefathers did...that's all on them.
I also don't feel guilty for others broad brushing...again, that's all on them.

I can't say that those jokes affect me negatively, I usually tell my buddies to say them louder so all of them women can hear them.

White guilt, no doubt!

[WiregrassTiger]

I can't say that those jokes affect me negatively, I usually tell my buddies to say them louder so all of them women can hear them.

But mine is also black, so the jokes are more inappropriate. Obviously.
But Wes hasn’t protested even once.

Why are you doing this to yourself?

Why are you doing this to yourself?

No one else wants to do it to him.

Great point. Wait a min...hold up. Are you trying to insult snags? Because it really sounds like you are.
