    The problem here is that the left won't condemn this rampant behavior likely because they see it as a valuable tool for keeping what they essentially regard as their property in line and obedient.
    Oh please, rampant behavior. We all know to which party the blatant white racist belong, and so do the targets of their racism know. Blacks don't vote 90 some odd percent democrat because they are stupid like you seem to think, they vote democrat because they aren't fooled by your rhetorical BS.

      Trump has a history of making controversial racial remarks and taking actions widely seen as playing upon racial anxieties: Charlottesville, the Central Park five, birtherism, housing discrimination against black renters etc. He has a long history of racism as did his father.

      Now he needs the black vote and Kanye West is invited to the WH. So yes, he IS the token negro.

        If only you were able to provide some moral thinking that was not relativistic I would consider your claims. But it is relativism each and every time. Must be frustrating to have to rely on that.

          It reminded me of Bob Dylan's lyrics on the track called "With God on our side":

          Through many a dark hour
          I've been thinkin' about this
          That Jesus Christ was
          Betrayed by a kiss
          But I can't think for you
          You'll have to decide
          Whether Judas Iscariot
          Had God on his side.

              Yes, it is a very interesting song with well thought out lyrics:

              One push of the button
              And a shot the world wide
              And you never ask questions
              When God's on your side

                Sorry, Jimmy, but the left laid the ground rules during Obama's time in office that any criticism of him could only be rooted in racism. We're just throwing that standard back in your face.

                  Well it's too bad that your party is infested with racists and the only way you know how to deal with it is to reach back into childhood and falsely accuse your accusers of the same. "I know you are but what am I." African Americans aren't stupid, they know who the racists are MM, which is why they vote democrat, and it is also why the leaders of the racist republican are scrambling every election cycle in an effort to stop African Americans from voting.

                    Racist - anyone who is not a democrat.

                    That’s the true definition of racism or sexism for that matter. Try being one of the groups that Democrats consider theirs that is not on their side and watch the racist and sexist comments roll in from the party of ‘tolerence,’

                      Based on this meeting, Kanye West reminds me a lot of Bono. They are both earnest musicians without clear partisan loyalties who want to express many opinions. George W. Bush famously had to pound his hand on the table just to get a word in edgewise over him when they met in the White House. And both West and Bono are egotistical, of course.

                      I believe Mr. West is 100% correct to be opposed to stop and frisk. I don't see how that policy is constitutional.

                        On Blue Bloods, Commissioner Reagan always corrects the phrase as "Stop, QUESTION and Frisk".

                        (I'm assuming that's to establish probable cause)
                        The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                          I also believe that Mr. West is 100% correct when he says that blacks who think that voting Democrat is always in their best interests are naive.

                            This has nothing whatsoever to do with relativism of any sort but like a small child who learned a polysyllabic word and is eager to impress the grown ups with how smart they are you incessantly keep using it even when its not appropriate revealing that you have no concept what the word you keep slinging about means.

                              I mentioned only three people but you have Tass whining up a storm about how long the post was. That ought to give an indication about just how rampant it is.

                              And when you keep offering free stuff to folks it is no surprise that they'll vote for more. A shame maybe, but not a surprise.

                                And when relativism will not work you can always attack the person.

                                I'd be interested if you could provide an example of you discussing what is right or wrong about Trump's actions instead of you discussing what others did that was worse. I am asking you to provide a line of reasoning that discusses what is right or wrong in and of itself, not what Hillary, Obame, the liberals or whomever did that was worse. Or it could be any other example of you discussing what is right or wrong in and of itself, not what some particular group that you disagree with did wrong. Looking forward.
