Yea, nothing says 'unity' like that comment.
I guess if you ask yourself who is benefiting from the continuation of this disgusting narrative, the answer is clear.

We are never going to rise above this, are we? Nothing we do is ever going to be enough, is it?
That's just politics. Millions more don't feel that way and respect the other person irregardless of skin color.

It didn't take long for the Uncle Tom insinuations......even here on CD.....

It's shameful but not at all unexpected.

Biden gave a great speech, a truly dignified patriotic American President. One who has the working class people best interests and not a self centered lackey as the previous one was.
Delusional! table for 70 million.

"Just politics" is a completely unacceptable 'excuse' for the continuation of this disgusting narrative. Liberals keep propogating it.....whenever they get a chance to do so.
I understand that millions don't feel that way, of course, but that is not what you hear.

Gun violence has become an epidemic

A ban on high capacity weapons

It is time for congress to act

No amendment to the constitution is absolute you can’t yell fire in a theater.
I agree on the first one, that is about it.

Suicide and inner city violence is an epidemic.

Not sure what a high capacity weapon is.

How is Congress going to end the inner city violence that is the true epidemic ?

I agree. He appears to be very centered and speaks the truth.
