I would hope someone televises that just to see cacs from kentucky lose their fukking minds..:mjlol:

That would be the ultimate ether. His body getting scorched and abandoned in the underbelly from the planet itself. They cannot fight against mother nature.

Ok I listened to the full video and I get the context of the argument he is trying to put forward. Bullshyt argument at the end of the day but he is a politician.
One clear point, though, and I am not a student of American history, so I will need a breh to help me. In the clip, he also said the civil war contributed to reparations. Taking this argument up, does that mean then that black people can argue FOR reparations because the '40 acres and a mule promise' was not kept?

Saying "no one responsible for slavery is alive today" is certainly not the same as saying "slavery doesn't negatively impact anyone today."
I thought reparations were supposed to help offset that negative impact.

This is how a lot of white people feel about Obama. That he was an "affirmative action" president and whatnot and only got elected because he was black.

Present company (probably) excluded :whoa:


is there potential that mcturtle can get voted out of office in 2020.......?

Not really bruh. It's Kentucky. :francis:

There's probably a better chance of him stepping down (or choosing not to run) due to a health issue than there is of a Dem Senator getting elected in Kentucky.

Turtle cites the civil war as reparations because the civil war happened already, that way America doesnt owe black people anything. They already paid :troll:

The "civil war is reparations" argument is piss poor because the civil war did not compensate for the labor stolen from black people. Turtle was reaching for a reason to justify his "fukk no!". His "fukk no!" will likely persist regardless of broken promises of 40 acres and a mule- because he just doesn't want America to pay reparations .

Let this also serve a reminder.

Racists, covert as much as overt racists, love the Confederate flag. "Its our heritage! How dare you tell us to stop acknowledging our past!"

Reparations?

"Omg that was so long ago! No one alive is responsible for that! Obama was president, racism is over!"

If you support conservatives in anyway your a piece of shyt. Stop that both parties LIE.
