something is seriously wrong when this is actually treated as a provocative statement worthy of a police investigation.

Quote:
“I condemn any type of literature sign that is posted that may be offensive to some folks,” Moon said.

By lunchtime Thursday, all of the signs were taken down, but Moon advised neighbors who see more of the same to call police immediately so they can investigate.

He said people taking them down themselves might interfere with investigations and collection of evidence.

LOL! Like I have a choice! What am I gonna say - "It is my parent's fault?"

Course there was that one lady who thought she had a choice. Called herself Black but the real Black folks would have none of that, either. And then there was E Warren, who called herself an Indian, but the Choctaws called her out on that too.


Dang! Screwed again!
Guess I'll just go and count all my money.

God, this country. It is ok to be white, for one. Second, who the hell would be offended by that truth, and lastly, he wants the police to investigate? The reporter called the signs "unsettling". Gmafb.

Liberals, the media and just about everyone who isn’t white disagree.

Is this different than "black lives matter"?

Somehow, I suspect that it is because it just occurred to me what a brouhaha there would be if someone dared to remind people that white lives matter too, because ALL lives matter.

If being white is, in fact, not ok, then what do I need to do to fix this flaw in my genetic makeup? I can't do blackface, that is offensive, but if being white is also offensive then this presents a bit of a problem for those of us with caucasian DNA.

It's amazing how many people fall for these 4chan trolls - there's so many of them out there and so many fall for them, repeatedly. Even after they are told that it was made up on 4chan for no other reason than to watch people lose their minds, they still freak out about it and demand investigations or firings or whatever else. It's hilarious. And for the record: It's Okay To Be White.
