I’m even seeing some conservatives joining the virtue signaling bandwagon. It’s like they have been brainwashed into thinking they should feel guilty for being white. I realize a lot of blacks have it harder in racial profiling from cops, but I’m not going to apologize on my knees for the color of my skin.

You don’t need to.
Just as long as you realize the wrongs of our society, that’s all that should matter.

You should not feel guilty for being white or being successful.

You should feel guilty for supporting the party of slavery - the Democratic Party!

Am I allowed to realize the wrongs, without destroying the society, the country, other people's property, and livlihoods, and apologizing for things I never did?

Because I don't feel one bit of guilt, for any of it.

Are you capable of realizing the wrongs being perpetrated by these so called "protesters" on a daily basis?

It reminds me of the 60's lunacy this county had to endure. Most of those people who are "protesting" don't have a life worth living.


The rioters and looters are merely card-carrying criminal, savage thugs.


It ain't no revolution; it's a gaggle of losers who are too young to understand the life that lies ahead of them. It not as easy as their addle minds think.
You are in complete denial.

As another with a firm background in history and of reading between and outside the margins of historical text I can agree with your stance.

I dont feel any guilt over any wrongs done in the past either but this continued refusal to learn from the past wrong or right does sadden me.

It makes me wonder if I wont meet my end fighting in a battle that wont be of any consequence. (sigh) Yet fight I will because I must because the only other choice is meeting my end on my knees.

So be it.
