No but I've been turned away from the job before because of what I look like....But that example you have is great... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeBags7277 759 Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 I'm so tired of seeing the 3/5ths compromise being misrepresented. As Raptor stated, it was a cunning political move by the northern states to get the Constitution ratified without letting the southern states have their cake and eat it, too. At one point during the debate, northern legislators began holding up office furniture, demanding that it, too, be recognized as persons, since southern "property" was to be considered such. Hell, I'd be tickled if the ratifiers had done what they said they were there to do and made piecemeal reforms to the Articles of Confederation. That being said, some folks need to do better.

AUUSN 823 Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Every time I read or hear about something new the BLM movement has done it gives me a migraine. If you're going to be an activist that's fine, more power to ya. But how about taking a page or two from MLK's book and act like civilized, educated people that we can work with. Not just a group that shouts RACIST and everything the deem it to be and everything they think it is. The stuff they do just baffles me. They aren't reasonable or rational. They have an extreme anti-white culture. But just remember folks...only white people can be racist.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icanthearyou 4,468 Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 "And then they keep going back and making the same mistakes, over and over and over." Your stupidity is growing exponentially. Are you sure you want to blame black Americans for showing restraint in the face of extreme discrimination? I am cannot imagine how you could demonstrate any more ignorance. Yet, I am sure you will rise to the challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AURaptor 1,137 Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 They're not showing restraint. If you'd seen the violent interactions by the BLM in these fake protests, you to rethink your response. The ignorance is on your part. By pretending to ignore or being oblivious to what is actually going on, you leave yourself to such idiotic remarks as the one above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
