    Ah yes, bringing up the past. Are the Christians still out massacring people in the name of Jesus on a daily basis like they did 300 years ago, or did they stop doing that? Are Germans still the world's greatest threat, or did they change?

    The KKK is a tiny group of terrified losers. They aren't doing anything anymore. They march in the streets occasionally with their bath robes. The threat has since changed.

    How can something be "not really" racist..

    Lets say Trump said she had nice Negro lips ( her lyrics) are you telling me you wouldnt be here in a rush to scream racism? Come on now.

    - - - Updated - - -

    I am portraying nothing as no one suggested all Blacks support BLM.

    Why do have a topic about race because this not a topic whites are informed enough to talk about.

    Trump already has more than enough racist or semi-racist (*)(*)(*)(*) on his template as it is.

    Anyway this isn't about Trump but the number of pseudo-intellectual or self-righteous folks looking for something to be offended by because, well for no reason.

    One can't be racist against one's own race. Look up the definition for crying out loud.

    At worst some may have chanted. Also, It could have easily have been a lesser known faction, 'F#€& the Flag' group who also believes that a Black person's life matters. Individuals may participate in activities outside their own group's.

    This is another reason why whites are informed enough to talk about race. you are saying a group people equals an entire whole group.

    Are blacks the only race on earth? Do they have the market cornered on race relations? How about instead of whining about what the white man 'owes' them, they start talking about how they can become productive members of society? Too difficult?

    So then short shorts and black lace nylons aren't the uniform of the black panthers?

    When you have people claiming they are a race they are not the very concept is pretty damn blurred now isnt it. You can also be mixed race but be racists against a race.. Simple concepts.

    I've seen white people in pics with BLM, how can they be racist against the black people? You're not making any sense.

    Is that why they rebranded themselves and spun off into different factions like the CCC, Stormfront, and infiltrated politics and law enforcement?

    Because they are ignorant behind the true meaning of purpose of BLM.

    In you a way you are by making it about people being "offended" instead of discussing the topic.

    One of the best half time shows in a long long time. Great music. 3 stars of the industry.
    But I suppose if the song isn't about the wife leaving with your best friend and how bad you feel because you ran over your dog with your pickup truck because you had your rifle out the window poaching deer. Yes, then it isn't music.

    It's not exactly the past when these same people spin off into innocuous factions and work covertly.

    The topic, strangely enough, refers to people who are offended (or butthurt, more accurately) over a Super Bowl performance.

    You certainly got that one right. Of all the things that are required of me to show mandatory offense, Beyonce supporting the Black Panthers is so low that I ran out of energy to care about. Did she support the Black Panthers? I didn't even notice. I was transfixed on that wrap around zipper and wondering how slowly she must zip that thing up to prevent permanent scarring. I did notice her whiffing away farts, a dance move I hope I never have to see ever again. It sort of left a stain on my soul. I noticed one of her lyrics saying something about taking her man to Red Lobster after having sex and I am more upset about that than anything else. My God, does she have no regard for her lovers cardio vascular health? All that butter!!! Now that was obscene.

    I am sorry to disagree with so many seeking to be offended, but did you notice that this was the PEPSI SUPERBOWL 50 HALFTIME SHOW! The halftime show is a tribute to American garrulous spectacle. Take it for what it is and stop looking for new ways to be offended.

    Um, by definition, junk like that and rap is not music. Sorry to break it to you. If you'd like a quick music theory lesson let me know
