    That’s not what blacks want. Blacks want to be above whites. You’re asleep at the wheel. It’s pointless debating you.

    Things like affirmative action are designed to give blacks a hand up after centuries of discriminatory practices that have put them at a competitive disadvantage. Pretending "it's all good now" while examples of racism still abound is naive.

    You didn’t even respond to what I wrote. Blacks don’t want equality, they want to be above white people who had nothing to do with slavery. Do you get that? Are you white? If you are, you are sad, sad lost soul. They would toss you into a dumpster if they could.

    No everyone is owed Equal Opportunity. Not equal outcome.

    When blacks have equal opportunity outcomes will take care of themselves.

    False, false, false. How dare you sit here and tell us they don’t have equal opportunities. For God sake we had a black President for 8 years. The richest woman in the country is a damn black talk show host. Blacks are in all sorts of positions of power throughout military, government, etc… Stupid-rich black entertainers, celebs, athletes, etc… How dare you say something so false.

    The facts prove you wrong and you seem allergic to them.

    A group documented " Threats, harrassment, disruption and acts of intimidation "

    No specifics no documentation and all subjective bullshit which do not constitute facts

    A nazi salute is not threatening, intimidating or illegal. A man arrested for battery is not an amergency requiring DOJ assistance. The concern by school boards is that parents are daring to question their elitist hegemony and nothing more.

    Examples of violent threats are footnoted in the letter sent to the DoJ.

    the DOJ inserting its self into schoolboards is clear examples of federal overreach. That is clearly a state matter.

    That is not what AA was desgined for and even if it was it has failed. Failed programs whould be discontinued.

    Discrimination and racism are not the same.

    Probably not just as it does not work with women and men.

    The more equal the opportunity the more UNequal the outcome

    So you thought by putting unreasonable conditions on those who aren't effected is somehow helping the situation?
    Do you drive a car? How could you do that with millions killed every year? You don't care about all the people killed in automobiles because you continue to drive?
    Do you let your kids ride bikes, go to the movies, stay at a friends house overnight, go to the mall? How could you do that with millions being abducted/raped/and killed every year. So you hate children, right?

    You can go post your fake outrage somewhere else cuz you ain't sellin it here.

    Do you drive a car? Do you wear a seat belt? Is that an unreasonable condition imposed by the government? Are speed limits?

    Did the point go over your head? If I wear a seat belt does that stop everyone else from dying in automobiles every year? Since people are still dying in cars every year, the fact that I drive one now makes my selfish and uncaring?

    Neither do I. I want schoosl to teach academic subjects and keep political agendas out of the classroom. Teaching race theory isn't necessary in teach math or english. Instead, teach the history of slavery. At least that is fact and not theory. McAuliffe couldn't have been more incorrect and the election results pointed that out.

    And what on earth would these things have to do with teaching political ideology in the class room? Nothing political about personal safety. I believe we call that a red herring.

    You left out
    Why should George Wallace, Bull Conner and Jefferson Davis give Democrats any help and solutions which the Dems would dismiss out of hand as racist?

    And I can post economist after economist including Democrats they state clearly this inflation is being driven by the combination the government influx of fiat money, paying people notnto work which artificially drove up the cost of labor and Biden's energy policies. So why should Reps go along with those policies?

    Wyatt Tee Walker already exposed CRT for the anti-MLK fraud that it is many years before most people had heard of it.

    So....the translation of that word salad is the DoJ became aware of violent threats targeting school board members and took action to look in to those making the threats. Then the right wing sound machine set out to demonize Garland for doing his job.

    The only MLK fraud is that being perpetrated by those who cynically and opportunistically misrepresent his words.
