    I am offended by Aspirin, it's so racist. The first thing you have to do is pick cotton from the bottle!

    Wow. That's original.

    That was ancient when the Big Bang happened.

    As far as Kelly, it will be interesting to see how her buyout works out.

    Michael Jackson was never in a minstrel show and most people have idea about minstrel shows which is why they have become some assumed attack on blacks. I find it the height is absurdity that were I to dress in 1960's mod clothing and blacken my face to go as one of my guitar heros Jimi Hendrix someone would complain because of minstrel shows.

    I am certainly free to comment know it especially when it is used to criticize others.

    It is exactly what you are doing demanding others not engage in innocuous acts because of a your proclaimed and misplaced egrieved feelings.
    No more than the white slavery but the fact remains we have not had slavery for almost 150 years.

    Then you must be very old as opposed to our youth where it is six. My Irish ancestors are 4 and faced discrimination and segregation here after slavery in Europe. It didn't dictate my life nor did Ibdemand persons who had nothing to do wth to treat me special.
    As have blacks. The difference our entire lives are not centered around the past.

    She it's not there to be a journalist she's there as a talk show host.

    Democrats enjoy Rachel Maddow, yet have fire in their eyes over Meg Kelly.

    Kelly is/was slotted to NBC news not entertainment, Maddow is time slotted to MSNBC entertainment not news. There is a valid difference here that most peeps are unaware of re network time slots re news vs. entertainment.

    Don't make assumptions about all Democrats. I don't enjoy Maddow at all.

    That's because you are mentally and emotionally removed from black culture and in denial about the extensive, pervasive and ongoing discrimination against this group. In your mind, it is no different than the discrimination against members of your ethnicity in America. That is not an accurate representation of history or present day reality.

    You will perhaps get your desire for a less sensitive society in two or three more generations. I can see signs of this in my children and other members of the younger generation, but only if the racists continue to outnumbered by people who are inclusive and there is less inequality. Otherwise, we'll all be like rats on a wheel. People who forget history are bound to repeat it.

    I grew up surrounded by black culture and the civil rights movement. How are you unequal to me?

    And here I thought the left was all about having conversations but then it is impossible to have civil and reasoned ones when it comes to race and about claims of racism.

    I'm talking about poor schools in inner cities, the need for criminal justice reform and other aspects of socio-economic inequality that affect groups of people not each individual like you and me. Do you intentionally ask ridiculous questions?

    She is being punished for things said on the talk show. I have seen her show and it sure does not look to me as if it is news. Maddow is so loony I refuse to watch her.

    Put yourself in her place, and she called you a name like that. Bet you would be disgusted.

    I believe her show focused on the women watching mostly. And her guests gave all kinds of views. She is a good listener. Is that why you smear her? Were you a regular viewer of her program?

    She attacked NBC's stars and management for operating a have for active sexual abusers. That is why they fired her. That and to take back the $69 mil they owe her by contract. NBC is just another crooked MSM Fake News network. Kelly should sue the hell out of them for breach of contract and defamation and fraud in the inducement.

    You have to be furious at the 12 person jury since they do not agree with you.

    I am actually satisfied with the Jury decision.

    In a perfect world, we would be free to paint our faces any color that we want, and to pretend we’re another race without anybody feeling hurt or angry.

    We don’t live in a perfect world.

    So sorry to have ruined your costume play. That must feel horrible for you.
