Maxine Waters calls for harrassment of members of Trump administration

[ChristianPatriot]

Or someone would video the white person calling the police on black people who aren't doing anything wrong.

Yep. See post #141

 

[Cameramonkey]

It would cause riots.

No riot. They'd be called Uncle Toms for daring to support a Nazi.

 

[T.Lex]

Yep. See post #141

For reference:

It’s all about the appearances. “Angry Trump supporter viciously attacks person excercising their free speech.”

I'm actually calling to mind a slightly different dynamic that's being reported in the MSM. There seems to be "more" (totally not clear if it is actually more, or just more widely reported now) of white people calling 911 to report black/non-white people for innocuous things.

Yep, Diamond and Silk have been called pretty much that by one on INGO.

1 Tim 2:2 First of all, then, I urge that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgiving be offered on behalf of all men for kings and all those in authority, so that we may lead tranquil and quiet lives in all godliness and dignity.
Do this.
But be ready to defend your family if need be.

Pretty much.

I've always thought that assuming that a person should think a certain way based upon their race or ethnicity was pretty racist.

Yep....That was not expected either..."minstrels" IIRC....

That's basically a primary definition of racism.

I'd agree, if that's all there was to it.
Guys like Ben Carson, Herman Cain, Richard Steel, Colin Powell, Mia Love and others less well known black Republicans/Conservatives aren't "minstrely." Once can disagree with them, but they represent themselves well. Diamond and Silk, are caricatures, stereotypes given over to self-deprecation for the humor of other. They sell goblets reminiscent of those carried by famous pimps. They appear in videos drinking a variety of colorful drinks, looking like "Kool aid." They engage in the Black church tradition of "call and response," with their constant "mmm-hmmm" and that's right." Hell, they even released a rap song "Trump is 'Yo' President."

But anyways, they might not be Uncle Toms, but they certainly shared the cabin.

I think Diamond and Silk are very entertaining, no matter their political views. Their testimony at the congressional hearings on the Youtube censorship thing was a hoot, when the Dems tried to put words in their mouths. Can I get an Amen!!

Uncle Tom - A good and pious man, Uncle Tom is the protagonist of Uncle Tom’s Cabin. Even under the worst conditions, Uncle Tom always prays to God and finds a way to keep his faith. As the novel progresses, the cruel treatment that Tom suffers at the hands of Simon Legree threatens his belief in God, but Tom withstands his doubts and dies the death of a Christian martyr.

Uncle Tom never abandoned God and never sold out...I'd be honored to be in his cabin...As a side note I worked with some ladies back in the 80's that would "call and response" when they were telling me "how it really is"....I always liked it...It had a cadence to it and yes they both attended the same church...

I knew a mother and daughter that would do the same thing, 96 yr old mother and 80 years old for the daughter...I would spend an hour on my debit insurance route hanging out with them because they never gave me bad advice...The mother told me stories about her great Uncle being born a slave in Russellville Kentucky and was a lad when the James Gang robbed the bank...As they were leaving they dropped a flour sack full of loot..Her uncle picked it up and one of the robbers, she said it was Jesse because of the cotton eyes he had, rode up to her uncle and said, "I dropped that on my way out boy and I need it..." She said her uncle handed him the sack of loot and the outlaw reached in it, grabbed a wad of bills and stuffed them in her uncle's shirt saying, "Don't let any white folk know you got that and tell them you didn't see nothing..."

She said the money was used to buy their first farm in Russellville...The daughter was one of the first black female graduates of UofK (Maybe EKU) and taught at the black school in Jeffersonville until segregation ended in the mid 60's....Segregation was not just a "southern" thing.....

Thanks Kut...I haven't thought about those ladies in years...It would be 90 degrees in that house and I never saw the Mom break a sweat in three years....

Not only is she an unhinged whack job, she's ugly as Hell.

She looks like she fell from the top of the ugly tree and smacked every branch on the way down.
