    Lol.

    As expected, you couldn't defend them at all.

    Try again.
    Racism, at its core, is nothing more than a simple tactic of divide and conquer played out on the larger battlefield of class war. It is so insidious and ancient a tactic, in fact, that its strongest adherents remain oblivious to the manner in which they are often used by a small and privileged elite to advance causes which are not their own. It is such an ingrained part of our history and culture that we are almost completely blind to its actual purpose - namely, a method of controlling a larger population who share more in common than the minority of the population who rule the land. The simple definition of "us" and "them" is a tool by which the privileged classes of a society are able to deflect the angst and hatred of their people's not-so-fortunate sons onto someone other than themselves.

    Realistically there isn't much Rep Omar could do for her district that would solve the devastating and lasting problems it endures. The situation in that area, not unlike so many others, is the result of many many many years of city mismanagement and failed (sometimes corrupt) government policy. I cant imagine too many of the people in that area want to live the way they do. I cant believe that parents are content watching their children grow up to become either gang members or victims of them. But then it is their community and their votes help make it the way it is. What can be done?

    I wonder how many of those districts are run by Democrats...

    I'd guess all of them.

    Grandstand some more. Post more nonsense....keep it coming. You in no way can defend the statements in the pic you posted that i initially responded to. Did you think one quote from one person was a defense of anything?

    Do you not get logic?

    They were blatant lies and you know it.

    You posted your little pic with three talking points. I called it out as total bullshit (which it was). Now move on.
