Is it really bothering you that much to hear how idiotic the Left is becoming?

It's the first one I've seen on it.

When you live your life looking to be offended, you will find opportunity everywhere.

You know, what the mayor claimed is utterly ridiculous as I mentioned in one of the other threads on this. But then claiming anyone said trees are racist is just as dumb, too. No one said that. And let's be clear. Only two or three people in the world think this is something other than pollen -- the mayor, her husband and the neighbor. Trying to lump this insanity onto a whole group of people is just, well, insane.

Okay, I read the link. this poor woman is just one of those people who goes thru her day to day life, leading with that chip on her shoulder, and anything that does not go her way is likely to be the result of some person oppressing her.

I remember an incident from years ago. My son wanted pizza for his birthday. He had a two year old brother. Anyone with kids knows, the longer you have to sit around waiting on the food to arrive with a two year old, the more of a handful the boy becomes. I wanted the pie to be ready about the time we arrived, so I ordered ahead from Pizza Hut.

When we arrived, we ordered our pitcher of coke, and 5-10 min later the pizza was brought to the table. Well, this black woman at a table just went off on us and the waitress. she was loudly complaining that it was racist because she's been waiting on her food for over a half hour. I gently explained how we ordered ahead of time, and it calmed her down.

Some people just go thru their day looking to be offended and victimized, and they exist across all racial and class groups.

The volunteer mayor of a town with a population of 980 perceived the family car had been vandalized with a substance as an act of vandalism. This is not the same thing as claiming pollen is racists and you know it.

The volunteer mayor is old enough to remember when burning crosses on front lawns happened with frequency in this town.. Spend a lifetime in her shoes and you might have arrived at a similar conclusion.

The internet, social media and the 24/7 news cycle makes mountains out of molehills.

That Math seems to be acceptable to the left every time some nut case goes on a shooting spree.
Every time some insane idiot makes a racist comment= all conservative white males are racist.
I agree with you 1 idiot is hardly evidence of the majority. Tell that to the hardliners in both parties.

Oddly, there is a search bar here at C-D and if you had pt Lamar in that bar and hit Enter, you would have found one of the threads at the very top of the results page.

We received several inches of snow the other day and I looked out my window at the Winter Wonderland and all I could think was that the Lefty Liberal Loons are right. It really is a white world.

I certainly felt the strain of "white privilege" when I went out to shovel the driveway and clean the cars off.

Snow is racist because it usually only comes in one color.

There, I said it.
