Facts. You need links? Please I have respect for you as a poster. Don't go down that rabbit hole of unsubstantiated claims.
It is well accepted history that southern democrats broke with the party after the passing of the civil rights act and went to the republican party. There is no denying that.
well you are partly right , its not on the DEMOCRAT agenda for sure.
Black Democrats like John Lewis who have been fighting for civil rights for decades would say your spewing misinformation... Listen, when one party has a damn near monopoly on the white supremacist vote, it renders your argument void...
I hear so many excuses as to why conservatives are against this protest, against that one. Then I tried to think of what type of movement for racial equality would conservatives support. I couldn't come up with one. Why don't conservatives just admit they don't support racial equality? That all their excuses are just coverups for the fact that they don't want a fair criminal justice system or racial equality. Let's go through some real-life examples:
Athletes/Non-athletes
When NFL players kneeled during the national anthem, conservatives said athletes should just shut up and play.
--but--
When non-athletes protest like during marches in D.C. and New York, conservatives have a problem with that too.
Flag/Non-flag
When NFL players kneeled during the anthem, conservatives said it was disrespectful of veterans.
--but--
There have been plenty of racial equality protests that take place when the national anthem isn't being played and when the flag isn't being flown. Conservatives still don't support them.
Hollywood/Non-Hollywood
When actors make political speeches during award shows, conservatives say Hollywood needs to stay out of it.
--but--
When millions of people across the country who aren't actors make the same points, conservatives bash them.
Violent/Non-violent
When black people get into physical altercations or damage property after hearing verdicts of cops being found not guilty, conservatives bash them for being violent.
--but--
When black people make peaceful protests such as NBA players simply wearing t-shirts that say "I Can't Breathe", conservatives call the act inappropriate.
Rich/Middle-class
When Hollywood, athletes, or other rich liberals make pleas for criminal justice reform, conservatives say those people are out of touch with what America wants because they're rich.
--but--
99% of the starters and participants in protests and racial equality movements are middle-class or poor; conservatives put down these people.
So will conservatives admit that they're just faking when it comes to being pro-flag, anti-rich, anti-athlete, etc.? Will conservatives finally be honest and admit that they will be against ANY AND ALL calls for criminal justice reform and racial equality? Tell the truth, shame the devil.
You made this all up. Just another attempt from the progressives to deflect from the fact that all their policies are known failures. The best part about falsely playing the race card is that it cost them the election and they still don't learn.

White supremeists make up less than 1 percent of the population. Only those that falsely play the race card give it validity. Course it didn't bother the racist left that the clintons number one advisor during the white house years recuited 150 members for his own klan chapter. Or that democratic leadership played the race card in Benghazi and said muslims saw a video and rioted, they're crazy, to cover up their gun running. Ignore that all you want. Truth is treason to some.

Charlton Heston was a conservative who marched with Dr. King.
Many of the blacks that marched with MLK were conservatives. I think we all know what type of conservative I'm talking about so don't play dumb...
