Only divisive to those who are satisfied with no border security and letting millions of illegal aliens (law breakers) stream in. To those who are tired of it, it's music.

I really don't think Trump put out a fire. Look at his cabinent and listen to his rhetoric, race relations are going to get worse in America.
 
Re: Did you care if Obama was a "President for All Americans"?

Maybe your should have gone back a few thousand years ago so we could talk about how bad it was for blacks under Egyptian pharaoh rule.

Since we are discussing American presidents, it makes more sense to discuss what's happened under all American presidents, just not recent ones.
 
Re: Did you care if Obama was a "President for All Americans&amp

Because he is dead. Judging him goes nowhere. If it was about self defense, there is no reason to bring up every school detention. He was a teenager, and no teen is perfect.
You people are the ones trying to paint Zimmerman as being a "racist" based on no hard evidence whatsoever here.

Why on Earth shouldn't one point out the fact that Martin was a juvenile delinquent who (at the very least) dabbled in drugs? Because it creates skepticism regarding the "racism" narrative you ideologically prefer?

I can't say that I really care. :shrug:

You people? Lol. I am starting to think "you people" have a serious race complex of your own.

I am not accusing you of racism.

I don't think killing Trayvon was a hate crime, or Zimmerman just wanted to kill a black person.

That's what I think, and I still think demonizing Trayvon is not necessary.
 
Re: Did you care if Obama was a "President for All Americans"?

1) Dodd-Frank made my banking a lot more expensive.

2) Obamacare has personally been a kick in my ass.

The ACA has had a financial impact on all businesses, including mine. Please defend eliminating the ACA and leaving 20 million folks without insurance. At least Obama tried to do something about it. What has the GOP done to reform our deplorable health care system? What do you suggest as an alternative?

What Dodd Frank was attempting to do was to try to prevent another financial crash that Bush's polices created in 2008. Please defend another financial collapse. Also, how has it made your banking more expensive?

Then you admit that you actually have no point, and are simply wasting everyone's time? :roll:

You asked for Obama policies impacting personally. I gave you some.

I don't care if you like those policies or not. Not in the slightest, do I care.

No, it's about the Left's continuing temper tantrum over not being able to basically lynch a man for the justified killing of some young thug who was trying to beat his head into the pavement.

That temper tantrum absolutely is rooted in the Left's obsession with trying to make everything under the sun about race, when it fits their ideological narrative to do so.

You realize the irony of this discussion? You made this all about race and ranting. I was talking about differences in facts, allegations, and discomfort in talking badly about the dead. You can't help yourself in demonizing Trayvon as opposed to seeing the situation as a traedgy for all involved. You come off angery and racially invested. If the races were switched, my values wouldn't change.

Maybe you weren't making things about race. Literally every other Left Winger in this thread, however, as well as the popular narrative the Left likes to spread about this event in general, most certainly does. You cannot deny that.

You're absolutely right that makes me angry. Idiotic propaganda has a tendency to do that.

Or maybe the right is more race obsessed than you realize...
 
Re: Did you care if Obama was a "President for All A

I don't get the whole thing about Zimmerman anyway.

Martin jumped him as he was making his way back to his car. There is no reason whatsoever to think Martin was the victim in any of this. Yes, he was being followed by Zimmerman. So ****ing what? He was looking in windows. Are people supposed to not report people looking in peoples windows? Are people not supposed to keep an eye on their behavior or consider them suspicious? And what has Zimmerman done since that is really all that bad? He saved some family from a car wreck, he failed to get the permission of a store before acting like a security guard, and he was assaulted by some asshole for saying who he was. The only thing even slightly bad there(and I'm pretty charitable with that) is not getting the permission of the store owner before acting like a security guard for the store. That however is a pretty minor offense and doesn't show any ill intent or malice on his part. In fact, it shows that he wanted to help even if he was misguided with his approach in doing so.

And again, I'd remind you that race is only even an issue here because the Left decided to make it into one.

Nope. Didn't say that either. Are you 12?
 
Re: Did you care if Obama was a "President for All Americans"?

No one ever said that there was a law that blacks can't go through neighborhoods, you did that all on your own. So own it.

I replied to people saying he was not allowed to walk through their neighborhood.

Moderator's Warning:
Last I checked this thread is not about Zimmerman/Trayvon. Stick to the topic or get booted from it.

Nope. The right did. Specifically American started that up.

You mean you can't defend the do nothingness of the GOP over the past half century. You've been duped into thinking your party has done anything except make things better only for the wealthy and corporations. You care, you just can't defend it because you've consumed too much of the right-wing nut cool-aid.

I understand.

I understand.

See, "understand" =/= "make up a bunch of stuff about."

And that's an increasing problem with the "progressive" set: they have no interest in understanding. They make up their own reality, assign hateful things to those they disagree with (because why else would anyone disagree with a movement based entirely on rainbows and unicorn farts?), and wonder why they're getting their asses handed to them electorally from sea to shining sea.

I say, keep it up. Never change. Be as condescending as you can possibly be. More, please, and louder.

Examples of conservatives making up their own reality:

1. President Obama was not born in the U.S.
2. Global warming is a myth been forced upon us "good "Murcans" by George Soros.
3. The economy has worsened under Obama.

Examples of conservatives hating:

1. Gays are iky.
2. Mexican people are iky.
3. Muslims are iky.
4. Anyone who disagees with me is a Kenyan Socialis.

Also, regarding losing the election, HRC's lead is $2million votes and increasing.

I say, keep it up. Never change. Be as condescending as you can possibly be. More, please, and louder.

Remember, compadre: When you point a finger at someone there are four pointing back at vous :)

See, there's your assumption again. I've never said, nor do I agree, with any of those things. I'm not a conservative. I'm pro-liberty. Which puts me at odds with both conservatives, and right now, especially "progressives," because the "progressives" have in many ways abandoned even the pretense of being pro-liberty. (This is not as true with liberals, but "progressives" are distinct from liberals.)

I take on conservatives as well. But your pointing out conservative hypocrisy, when so rife with it yourself, only compounds your own.

And yeah, Hillary has a "vote count" lead about half as big as the Republican Congressional "vote count" lead. Both aggregations of votes are meaningless, but if you're going to make a big deal out of one and not mention the other, well, more hypocrisy.
