Nice try at defending his actions, though.

Oh, and saying the "mob accosted him" is what one should expect from InfoWars, a known propaganda site that tin foil hat wearing conspiracists actually believe.
That makes you a racist? Does that mean if someone espouses his love of "black men" and "all that they accomplished" makes him a racist? Is "Black Pride" barely concealed racism?

Furious because he states his opinion......the new, intolerant USA.

And yes, much of modernity as we know it is due to brilliant inventions by you-know-who!

We all owe a debt of gratitude to all the inventors who make life MUCH better.

I'm confused... these people were protesting Trump being a sexually-assaulting jerk, so this white guy (who has a book to sell, btw) decides to approach them, yell at them about how awesome white folks are and how white people pretty much built all the good stuff in the western world (which, no... they didn't, not by a damned sight) and it's the "SJW libruls" who are somehow to blame for him screeching on a video?

LOL.

Get outta here with that mess. He's a whiner. I mean, he is entitled to his own opinion, but if you step to any group of people, especially minority students whose ancestors likely BUILT THE STUFF HE IS TALKING ABOUT WITH THEIR OWN HANDS.... ???

Expect some blowback.


He's playing you... he wants controversy. Controversy sells books.

Controversy gets you on TV.

He's not stupid, not at all. He's just another Milo, but (presumably) heterosexual.

I don't care what someone's skin color is. NOBODY should be ashamed of their skin color. Someone isn't racist just because they refuse to be ashamed of their outer wrapping.

The Nazi did it to the Jews. They shamed them first, then they slaughtered them by the millions.

Demonizing whites because of the past actions of white people is sick. Blacks didn't like it when it was done to them. Don't do the same to whites.

It's not, but that doesn't stop them from tossing that card out every time since they have nothing else to say.

Tim Wise, the pos that he is, went onto Twitter and called out for people to destroy this person's life. He didn't say "person", however, he said "Time to wreck this little sh...", wanted his life wrecked, wanted him fired, wanted him kicked out of school, etc.

When called on it, he made a long whining apology stating that he never called for anyone to harass him, Wise just wanted him to lose everything, and not to stop until the kid did.

And since the guy has written a book, the usual mouth breathers who carry the "racist!!!" card around with them to toss whenever they can't come up with anything logical to debate anything at all, they went to Amazon and gave him 1 star reviews. I haven't looked again, but I know many reported them, and they are all unverified. Amazon typically fixes that issue, but who knows if they have nor not, I've got other things to do.

They have been attempting to hurt this kid for being proud of who he is.

So my message to them is: Well, get over it.

I'm white. I'm proud of my heritage. I'm proud of what my ancestors built, and what they accomplished. And I don't give a single sh what you think about that.

Ha ha, just a wee bit.

College kids are wasting time and energy creating constant drama rather than focusing on their education.

Sorry, but you're wrong. Racism made a comeback under Obama.

It's a good question that you raise, it really is. When does "racism" start, and where does it end? If you believe your race is "superior", you meet the textbook definition of racism. However, it would seem that so many want to cloak their true intent, and in the case of this kid, I believe it was merely to troll black people.

Did you hear him shrieking "I love white men!" He said it more than once. He is probably trying for Milo 2.0, and all the Breitbart's and InfoWars of the wingnut-o-sphere are probably gonna be getting in line to promote this twit.
