    It really is crazy how the Democratic Party that professes to be against Racism, promotes Racism more than anybody. Liberals see Racism EVERYWHERE, especially when White people are involved and have been waging a Race War against Myself and White people in general for Years. I'll Never! Ever! vote for a Democrat again for as long as I live, because their distain for Myself and White people disgusts me and for any Politician no matter how good they sound in a Debate, but who associates themselves with The RACIST Democratic Party will never get my support.

    So white men have more initiative and business savvy than most other people, nothing new there. So back to my original question, can you name a white owned business? If not, how is blm going to know who to be racist against?

    Thank goodness for those White Business owners who provide an opportunity for an individual to earn a living and put Food on the table.

    So accepting one groups promotion of a 'small segment' of a business based on skin color is acceptable, but not another. You've basically put yourself up as racist. While you may have 'good intentions' in seeing the situation that way, it is still racist.

    no, they don't need to **** off ... what they need to do is focus on the REAL problems in the black community ... gangs, crime, teenage pregnancy, very few father figures in the home, government dependence etc ...

    My first thought was what defines a "black company"? The race of the CEO? The racial breakdown of employees, shareholders, product users?

    Unfortunately the Marxist BLM disagrees. Reminiscent of the politician who had to apologize for saying that all lives matter during a debate.

    Do a little reading on the PPP distribution and see that black owned businesses received only 17%.

    You and I will never agree on this, primarily because you don't see one group started 10 paces behind. And I do.

    I've already stated that I don't support many of the BLM propaganda and methods. In many cases, they are setting the group they intend to help behind.

    It's too late for the organization to get real on black problems. Besides that I wouldn't call it "black problems" and more "low income family problems" that would mostly consist of black families but can also impact other races equally as well.

    Enough with the racial segregation in our language.

    Whats even funnier is you claiming leftist media running fake news to support Trump because you thought Trump wouldn't attract black voters.
    Guess you were wrong
