    Well, tonight the Blackish episode in question comes on. I'm gonna watch it to see if it is worthy of condemning.

    It seems like the marketing staff achieved its objective. What did you think of the episode?

    You know, I watched the Blackish episode last night, and it was actually pretty good. There wasn't that much Trump bashing in it either, most of the humor was directed at the people who were having a hard time accepting the election, and Dre was the only one who was logical about it. He wasn't so much worried about the election as he was worried about meeting a deadline for his advertising firm. And, when the insanity got too much he stood up and said like it or not, this is America and for good or bad, we are ALL citizens and should unite together.

    Overall, I thought it was a pretty good episode. If you have On Demand with your cable service and didn't have the chance to watch it last night, I recommend watching. It was pretty good.

    Just as retarded as saying that blacks are all criminals and welfare recipients while Mexicans are all druggies. Even worse is when some pretend there is no such thing as corporate welfare.

    Show me where there is a movement of people actually saying that. The only ones that make the claim is hat people are saying that are progressives.

    Folks are not born racist, that is learned behavior.

    America is responsible for what happened 200 yrs ago.

    Well you can't sue the country for it, that would be suing people of today so . Can't make peoples tax dollars of today pay for something that happened 200 years ago. Go find the people directly involved in that and make them pay, but don't touch our tax dollars.

    Has anyone else on this thread watched the episode of Blackish in question? I did.

    And, to tell you the truth, it wasn't bashing Trump at all. It was about the behavior of the various supporters, both Trump supporters and Hillary supporters. And, they poked more fun at the Hillary supporters being unable to accept the election results than anything else.

    Like I said about this before, there is no outrage to be seen here, just outrage at the perception at what the OP thought was an anti Trump show.
