No.. you see color. That’s such a foolish thing to say.

It’s much better to admit you see color but treat people fairly. I’m obviously Black and it’s obsurd to say you don’t see my skin tone.

Don’t believe me? Go to the Canada forum and witness the lack of conversation about their own problems. They are far more content to wag their finger at us instead.
Sounds like typical libs. Physician heal thy self works well here.

Our policies are definitely something open to criticism, as is the case with all countries.

It’s the reaction and criticism to bad journalism that is so cringeworthy. Arguing over our social problems with authority ... despite never having set a foot in our country is pretty idiotic. Calling us a “racist country”, without any reflection at all of their own country’s history of racism, immigration policy, and treatment of Aboriginals. It’s really quite mind boggling.

Maybe wrong words - of course I am not blind, but we did not treat anyone different because of a skin color. we were taught to treat others as we would want to be treated -period.

Exactly. He fell in love with a militant Muslim woman, and his transformation was swift.

Does anyone still believe Kaepernick's anthem protest was not against America itself?
So the false claim that he was not against the country was just proven wrong by HIMSELF. I love it. I wonder what all the Kaepernick excuse makers will have to say now? They were completely defending Kaepernick before, claiming he had nothing against the flag or our country, when the rest of us claimed he did. Now he admits he does, so will all the excuse makers now admit they were wrong?

Many of us stated as much in the past. Now he has made it clear we were correct all along.

But but but but he could have been a billionaire if not held back by the evil white man.
