What an entitled little brat.

She'll now have a criminal record to follow her white skin and blonde hair all her life.

Only 60 days?

He also said 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.

That has been lost in our hate filled society. Now we have a black women in Virginia being called a white supremacist because she won as a republican. Had she have been a democrat they would have put her up for president.

Silly fool. She should know it's not how much white you have in your skin that buys immunity from the law, but how much green you have in your wallet.

RN: This was an act of violent insurrection against the duly-elected government. In a sane society everybody convicted of participating in it would be executed. Of course, in a sane society this kind of thing would not happen in the first place.

I wish you'd leave links on what you post. I have no idea of who you posted about.

Infidel753,

Or if you have friends, like Trump, in high places. Trump pardoned his 3 convicted felon pals: Bannon, Stone, and Manafort. Thereby continuing the former Republican Party's descent into ignominy.

As I have said before, these people should be tried for treason and they are lucky they were not shot on site. Now we need to put Trump in jail.

Les Carpenter said...

@Infidel... are we a sane nation any longer? I wonder. Given our plunge into ignorance and greed. We are now being defined as a nation (in the eyes of the world) by the worst among us.

Skudrunner is undoubtedly referring to Winsome Sears, the new Republican lieutenant governor. Apparently she was called a "face of white supremacy" by at least one commentator.

RN: I attribute the problem to residual effects of the Christian fetish for forgiveness and redemption of sinners, which continues to plague the mentality even of many atheists who deconverted but still carry within them the psychological taint of the religion. The Romans would have known how to properly handle people like Jenna Ryan and the rest of the insurrectionist mob.

Ms Shaw, I don't doubt you haven't heard about her triumphant win because the leftist media has been quiet.

"white supremacy is electing the first black woman lieutenant governor," The Blaze’s Jennifer O’Donnell tweeted. "got it."

How stupid do you have to be to believe that statement. That is just about as stupid as believing the US is systemically racist while they elect a black president. Some logic defies logic.

skud: "Ms Shaw, I don't doubt you haven't heard about her triumphant win because the leftist media has been quiet."

Did FAUX NOOZ, Newsmax, and OAN report on Michelle Wu's historic win in Boston? Asking for a friend.

Infidel753 provided a link to her "triumphant win" photo holding a weapon of mass killing. Why? What does that have to do with her job as Lt. Governor of Virginia? Is she and Youngkin afraid of Trump's mobs attacking the state Capitol? For what purpose does an elected official pose with a weapon like that? What's her message? Does she even have one? IMO, she looks foolish, and not like a serious state official. That is something one would expect to see in some lawless third world country, ready to undergo some sort of revolution. Is THAT the message she's advertising?

The photo was probably from the campaign. Sears served in the Marines, which is a major positive with many voters. The gun would have been a reminder of that. Also, remember that gun ownership is an important part of the culture in rural areas, and often felt to be under threat. There's something of a history of Republican politicians displaying guns as a show of cultural solidarity, rather like eating ethnic foods in ethnic neighborhoods.

Shaw Kenawe said...

Infidel753,

My grandson lives in rural Virginia with his biracial finance. He collects guns and is a 2nd Amendment advocate, but doesn't fetishize firearms. He isn't a fan of showoffs brandishing weapons; it's just not his style. He's not a politician, he's serving in the U.S. Navy, so he doesn't have to impress anyone.

PS. He didn't support the two top winners in Virginia.

@Infidel... which is why i meditate, recognize that all religions based in a monotheistic premise are generally confused.

Buddhism as a life philosophy is my path. It is the only one that makes any sense to me. Ignorance and greed are the planets greatest evils.

"The HUGEST question to me these days is HOW DO WE, AND GATEWAY PUNDIT, AND OTHERS WHO "KNOW" KNOW WITHOUT BEING EFFECTIVE IN EXPOSING IN SOME WAY ENOUGH TO STOP THINGS GOING ON?"

(Wanna know why Americans are getting dumber and dumber and electing people like Trump? The person quoted above is a teacher!)


Well! There are known unknowns and unknown knowns! That's the answer to your HUGEST question.

So much for public education and the AFT/NEA who runs it. Lets teach to the lowest common denominator, oh wait that is what we are doing because you don't want to embarrass some poor child. Lets not give grades because that is just unfair and lets eliminate charter schools because everyone can't attend. While we are at it lets not have educational choice like vouchers and pay for community college instead of trade schools because we need more educated unemployed.

Dave Miller said...

Skud... this may not sound like a leftie, but let me say this... at the end of the day, you will get out of your education what you put into it.

I've known incredibly smart people who never finished high school and other well degreed ppl who have no real sense.

But think about this... we all know who the above quote is from. She's a private school teacher who frequently points out how much conservatives "know" even if there is no evidence or proof of their claims. Heck, even in the face of facts refuting their "evidence" they dismiss that evidence because it does not comport with their facts.

But look at that sentence she wrote. Subjects, verbs, adjectives, structure... does she know anything about English and Writing, which she teaches?

And people blame libs for our educational morass...
