Explain to me how the party with barely any black people is the inclusive one while the party of most of black America is more racist against blacks, that doesn't make a lick of sense. Are you saying black people hate themselves and are part of the KKK? There's nothing at all coherent or accurate about your statement.
I was not dishonest about those who voted against civil rights remained Democrat. Quit believing lies and maybe you can educate yourself with facts. And please quit talking about blacks this or that. Your probably don't even know any black people, but I know you are going to say some of your friends are black.. ya ya ya, I hear it all the time.

Of course it wouldn't make any sense to you how the Democrats are racist against black people. because you will never know what it is like to have to hear that welfare reform is racist against blacks. To know that a group of people like the Democrats think you need welfare. To hear that black people need different programs to succeed as equal as the whites, I am sorry that is racist. I didnt need your programs or need your welfare to succeed, I did it on my own. And unlike your anointed one's statement, I built this.

As long as students are not allowed to wear shirts supporting any candidate, I see no problem.

you see no problem with a teacher bullying a student, and influencing other teachers and students to bully the student. That is messed up.

People were not rounded up like political dissidents and jailed. In America, the basic right to freedom of speech is given a very, very wide berth, and people can without impunity say what they want.

And, as I said in a later post, I eluded to this faux news story stinks to the high heavens, and I believe it lacks details of it, and were conveniently left out. It sounds like a she said/she said type of story, based largely on heresay. Something isn't right here. Why did the girl's father call only faux news and no other media providers? This is a main sticking point with me, faux news lies probably 55% of the time.
Cripes, even MSNBC is reporting the story.

The teacher admits doing what the student says, but claims she was joking.

well, they can fire her, and she can laugh about that.


bullying shouldn't be tolerated at schools, and especially not by a teacher.

so you are agreeing that it should be free NOT to be allowed to wear a particular T-shirt?


this country is certainly not free for a teacher to bully students, nor should it be.

I wouldn't be so proud of "building" that completely incoherent post. I'd imagine your only black friend is your bottle of Aunt Jemima syrup in your kitchen as you believe yourself to be the authority on what is good or bad for black people. You have no idea why 95% of blacks vote Democratic. Do you think its a random coincidence? They don't want to associate themselves with the party of white bigotry. You're very much rambling incoherently talking about white racists voting Democratic, do you really think all the Archie Bunker types out there are voting for Obama? Every racist white guy I know is voting for Romney. I have no idea what world you live in where people like Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh love black people but President Obama and the Congressional Black Caucus (all but one Democratic) hate them.

I'm suuuuuuure 95% of white people in the Deep South vote Republican for completely non racist reasons.....

So because I am black and a Republican, I have no black friends. Okay what ever. Go back to your lilly white suburbia and tell them how you was able to stick it to a black person and tell him how he doesn't know any black people. Pure ignorance.
